Does anyone know the shortcut for the green guy emoticon that you can select when you post? I would like to be able to include him in the body of my posts. He doesn't show up in the "Show All".

Thanks for you help.

Unless it gets added to the list of emoticons "show all", I don't think you will be able to. I right-clicked on the green guy, and got the following code: http://www.glutenfreeforum.com/style_image...icons/icon8.gif

So all the emoticons are really .gifs that the board substitutes for a series of keystrokes (ie :lol: is really : lol: - the board has logic to translate it).

I was told in Open Original Shared Link that adding images to posts has been disabled. So unless the admin adds the green guy to the list, I don't think you will be able to use it like you want to. Maybe the moderators could add it to the list, too.

This post is to Scott . . .

I was wondering, since you've already got a .gif available for the green guy emoticon, if you would be willing to add a shortcut for him so that we could use him in our posts?

If you notice in my signature, I have a 6 and an 8 year-old . . . I KNOW how to beg!!

Pleeeeaaaaasssse??!!??

Pretty Pleeeaaaasssseee??!!??

Awwwww, C'mon.

If you do this, I promise I won't ever ask for anything else. EVER!!!

I'll feed the dog for a week and you won't even have to ask me!

All the other board administrators are getting their board members green guy emoticons!!

If you really loved us, you would do it!

Are we there, yet?

How much longer?

So true Patti!

If the little green guy was made available to use in the body of our posts I would use him! He would not go to waste!

True!

In fact, the green face would probably be SO overused that it might crash the emoticon feature.

Ya got that right. Perhaps Scott should also consider creating a little emoticon of a toilet seat.

How about it Scott???

You'll help us reduce our risk of carpal-tunnel . . . now everytime we would like to use the emoticon, we have to type "insert green guy emoticon here". Seriously :huh: , those keystrokes rack up over time.

Hey Scott . . . It's been almost two years!!! Given any thought to adding the green guy emoticon to the list of emoticons available for use in the middle of a post??

We are talking about some really nasty stuff (blood pudding, pig's head salami, fried blood) on another thread. People are gagging and hurling right and left. The green guy emoticon would be so helpful at moments like this.

Ok, I have to say that I was reading this thread thinking, wow, when would I ever use the little green guy. They I got to the quoted post, read it, and found that yes, I too could have used the little green guy! :lol:

I just have to say that when I started this thread over two years ago, we didn't have the option that Peter is demonstrating (for which we are thankful 'cause I get to add cute little pics in my signature). However, it would be easier if the green guy was in our emoticon pool. :P

The ability to post images is indeed new since Janet started this topic.

      Thank you for the response and article. I was placed on the Mediterranean diet and been on that now for about 3 weeks.

      Welcome to the forum, @MI-Hoosier! You are operating on a misconception about your "mixed" test results. You only had two celiac disease diagnostic tests run out of six that could have been ordered if your doctor had opted for a complete celiac panel. It is perfectly normal to not test positive for all possible celiac disease diagnostic tests. That is...

I have never had gluten symptoms and no issues with bread and am...

      To put this in perspective, most recent pretest "gluten challenge" guidelines for those having already been eating reduced gluten or gluten free for a significant time period is the daily consumption of 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of two weeks leading up to the day of testing (antibody or biopsy). And I would certainly give it more than two weeks to ensure a valid test experience. Short answer: If it were me, yes, I would assume I have celiac disease and launch full bore into gluten-free eating. I think the tTG-IGA is reliable enough and your score is solid enough to make that a reasonable conclusion. Here is an article to help you get off to a good start. It's easy to achieve a reduced gluten free state but much more difficult to achieve consistency in truly gluten-free eating. Gluten is hidden in so many ways and found in so many food products where you would never expect to find it. For example, soy sauce and canned tomato soup (most canned soups, actually), pills, medications, health supplements. It can be disguised in terminology. And then there is the whole issue of cross contamination where foods that are naturally gluten free become contaminated with gluten incidentally in agricultural activities and manufacturing processes: Eating out at restaurants is a mine field for those with celiac disease because you don't know how food is handled back in the kitchen. Gluten free noodles boiled in the same water that was used for wheat noodles, eggs cooked on the same griddle that French toast was, etc.

      Thank you for the response and article. I was placed on the Mediterranean diet and been on that now for about 3 weeks. While not gluten free I am eating very little bread or anything with gluten ie a slice of whole wheat bread every couple days so assume that would cause issues now with a biopsy.  With the condition my liver is in I am unsure moving back to higher bread consumption is ideal.  In this scenario would my test results be enough to assume positive Celiac and just move forward gluten free?

      Welcome to the forum, @MI-Hoosier! You are operating on a misconception about your "mixed" test results. You only had two celiac disease diagnostic tests run out of six that could have been ordered if your doctor had opted for a complete celiac panel. It is perfectly normal to not test positive for all possible celiac disease diagnostic tests. That is why there is more than one test option. It is the same way with other diagnostic testing procedures for many or most other diseases. Generally, when diagnosing a condition, a number of different tests are run and a diagnosis is arrived at by looking at the total body of evidence. The tTG-IGA test is the centerpiece of celiac disease blood antibody testing and the one most commonly ordered by doctors. You were strongly positive for that test. It was not an unequivocal result, IMO.  Having said that, it is standard procedure to confirm a positive celiac disease blood antibody test result with an endoscopy/biopsy which is still considered the gold standard of celiac disease diagnosis. Had your tTG-IGA been 150 or greater, your doctor many have opted out of the endoscopy/biopsy. The absence of GI distress in the celiac disease population is very common. We call them "silent celiacs". That can change as damage to the lining of the small bowel worsens. Elevated liver enzymes/liver stress is very common in the celiac population. About 18% of celiacs experience it. I was one of them. Persistently elevated liver enzymes over a period of years in the absence of other typical causes such as hepatitis and alcohol abuse was what eventually led to my celiac disease diagnosis. But it took thirteen years to get that figured out. Within three months of going gluten free my liver enzymes were back into normal range. Thank goodness, there is more awareness these days about the many long fingers of celiac disease that are not found in the classic category of GI distress. Today, there have been over 200 symptoms/medical conditions identified as connected to celiac disease. It is critical that you not begin a gluten free diet until your endoscopy/biopsy of the small bowel is over. Doing so before that procedure will invalidate it because it will allow healing of the small bowel lining to begin. Here is a link to an article covering celiac disease blood antibody testing:

My ttg was a 49.4 (normal >15) but my endomysial antibody was negative. I have never had gluten symptoms and no issues with bread and am 54. Do I need a biopsy to rule celiac in or out with this mixed test? Any thoughts are appreciated.
