Suggestions For Searches And 'stickys'

I have a suggestion for your search function above. It is very hard to plow through the oodles of information, especially ingredients in products which change from month to month. Over on Chowhound.com they also had this problem; you'd search for a restaurant and it would give you posts from 8 years ago first. When I search this forum sometimes the first result is something from 2004 which is obviously out of date (product ingredients changed, restaurant closed, etc.). Chowhound changed their search so you can list the results by date, see post here.

It would be sooo nice to sort by date so I don't get info from before the change in the FDA labelling laws.

I have one more suggestion, mostly for the ingredients/products boards and the newly diagnosed boards. Too often the 'newbies' post the same thing over and over, 'can I eat maltodextrin?', 'my son/daughter was just diagnosed, where do I go for help?'. etc. Can some forums have 'stickies' with a FAQ? The mods could keep them up to date and then the boards wouldn't be full of the same questions over and over.

That being said, i LOVE your board and the hard work you guys do. I often visit here for info on food for my son. Thanks a million!!

Great suggestions! I feel exactly the same.

While we're on topic, it always seems bothersome & avoidable to have so many results' urls as the "lofiversion", despite my not using the "lofiversion".

The search via Google on the top-left was put here by popular demand.

Take care,

Oh yeah. I remember the hue and cry (sp?) when that disappeared.

hmm, note to self - learn to use other features on this forum.

      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:
