My Post Was Changed

Hi,

I posted today the response I got from a Clinique rep about the gluten content of their makeup. Most of the products I use are gluten-free and I was happy and was sharing the list in case others could be helped.

When I came back to the board later, the topic description of my post had been changed to "Most contain wheat." I definitely did not write that, because that's not the info I got. It may or may not be true, but I hate that it's somehow attributed to me, when I have no info to back that up.

For what it's worth, that does seem to be the position of someone who replied to my post, so maybe they were somehow able to overwrite it?

Can you tell me what's happening here?

Thank you for your help and for running these great message boards!

That is very weird, and I have never heard of that happening before. I know for a fact that moderators do not have the option or authority to edit other people's posts. Perhaps other moderators more experienced than me or Scott can chime in on this one.....

That is strange. I'm pretty sure I pinned that particular topic. I remember reading it a couple times and not understanding why it said "most contain wheat" because it didnt seem to go with the original post. :unsure:

I know when I first posted it, it did not say that. You're right -- it doesn't make sense that way. Somehow between the time I posted and it got pinned, it mutated!

In fact, I had trouble coming up with a "description," and ended up with something dumb like "response from Clinique about makeup" And now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure that when I first posted, my main topic line was just "Clinique," not "Clinique Products" like it is now. It seems that somehow my post was merged with the one that shows up as a response.

I hope someone can change it because I feel like I'm bashing Clinique when I meant to do the opposite. Thank you for your help!

The only way it could have been changed is if I changed it--and I didn't because I don't do that (I simply don't have time or the inclination). You can edit your own posts so feel free to do so.

      Ichthus is the Greek word (using English letters) for fish. The letters in the actual Greek word form an acronym that come from the first letters in the Greek words for "Jesus", "God's Son," "Savior".   Now, back to your family's denial of your celiac disease, I think you can relate to this:

      Anyone Else Experiencing These Symptoms?

      By Mantooth · Posted

      Thanks for the kind words. It's hard to convince my doctor to investigate further because of a negative blood test and he only tested me for one marker. 🙃 I've come to the point where I need to take this into my own hands because the doctors are infuriating and it's not going anywhere. I've been gluten free for a week and feeling better but I was still consuming dairy and I think that's what's backing me up. Next week no dairy introduced.

      Hello mantooth nice to meet you it's so uncanny what you wrote you sound just like me even the back issues are exactly the same and I'm new here too trying to find out if I have the same had I too have been struggling to find answers with my docters I don't have a diagnosis but I've been struggling like forever and was told ibs and health aniexty was my problem but on researching I've come to the conclusion it's probably more because i cut gluten and lactose out for 6 months and  it was a incredible change for me so although I can't help with diagnosis I can say your not alone in trying  to find answers 😊
