I'm Now More Than Just An Advanced Community Member!

Okay, so now that I'm above the magic 500 posts, I thought I'd try to come up with some brilliant little thing to put under my avatar instead of "advanced community member"--although that does have a nice, respectable ring to it. Where do I go in my controls to change this? :huh:

Welcome to the 500 club. Has it really been more than a year and a half since you joined us? It seems like just yesterday. Time flies.

:lol: Isn't it hilarious...all of us (at least me, for sure) having such marvelous, human to-do-lists, full of checking out what certain people have posted here. A couple of weeks ago when I was hovering around 499 posts, I was making supper when I suddenly put down the mixing spoon and announced, "Mygawd! I am about to cross a great threshold...what am I doing here, standing in this kitchen?! I must go and make history". I left the rice on simmer, sat down and cranked off two posts, pushing me over 500. My family stood staring at me. So, there were no great bells or sirens as I crossed this line...and now I have yet another crucial thing on my to-do-list--changing my new Custom Member Title every so often. I get more high-maintenance every day, it would seem... :rolleyes:

      I agree with @RMJ, you have multiple positive tests so celiac disease is likely.  This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease.

      One small study found that 50% of celiacs react to the dairy protein "casein" like they do to gluten. It is also common for celiacs to be lactose (the sugar in milk) intolerant, though that often disappears in time as the villi heal. About 10% of celiacs react to the oat protein "avenin" like they do gluten.

      Thank you so much Trents (Scott?)! I have started working with a dietitian and did a deep research dive as soon as I got the diagnosis. I am aware of what you mentioned in the first two paragraphs, and was not aware of anything in the third, so I am grateful for that information, and will talk to the dietitian about that. I think I was most interested in the withdrawal process - it gives me hope that, although I have felt unwell recently, I just need to be patient (not a strong suit). I have printed the article you sent and will look at it more closely. Thanks again!

      Welcome to the forum, @K6315! Gluten withdrawal typically lasts for a period of a few weeks. But there is a real learning curve involved in actually attaining to a gluten free dietary state. Much more is involved than just cutting out major sources of gluten such as bread and pasta. It's all the places that gluten is hidden in the food supply that is difficult to ferret out, like soy sauce and canned tomato soup, canned chili and canned pork n' beans, some "lite" pancake syrups, potato salad, flavorings, etc., etc. Gluten-containing grain products are hidden through alternate terminology and found in places you would never expect.  There is also "cross contamination" where naturally gluten free foods come into contact with gluten-containing grains during farming, transportation, storage and manufacturing processes. Then there is the issue of "cross reactivity" whereby you may be having gluten-like reaction to food proteins whose structure is similar to gluten. Chief among these are dairy, oats (even gluten-free oats), soy, corn and eggs. I am including this article that you might find helpful:
