Forgive me , I am not very good with computers. So my dd helped me find a photo and its over in my control panel displayed in the box. How do I get it where I can see it next to my posts? Plz make it real simple...step-by-step.

Another dumb? What does IMO stand for?? :(

I also am having a problem with having to scroll to every post instead of clicking on only the I want to read. It didn't used to be like this. How can I fix it back the way it was.

K.I.S.S. keep it simple stupid(meaning me, the stupid one! :lol::angry::blink: )

THANKS BUNCHES :)

As someone who absolutely loves the K.I.S.S. rule, :lol: I can help with at least part of this.

For the picture, click on "My Controls" then "Edit Avatar Settings" on the left. The picture we all see for each post is called an "Avatar" and to put something there click on "Browse" and follow probably the same steps you did to upload the picture to your personal photo.

IMO means In My Opinion. IMHO is In My Humble Opinion. JMHO means Just My Humble Opinion. Etc.

I'll let someone else handle the board scrolling issues! :blink:

I'm not quite sure I understand your scrolling issues but display modes tend to get reset for some reason or another. If that is your problem (and even if it isn't, it won't hurt to do this) try clicking on the "Options" button on the right at the top of a topic. Under "Display Modes", click standard. It's also possible that you have always been in "linear" and now it's "standard", in which case, just switch to linear . . . or not if this isn't what you were talking about :P

The "Browse" button lets you find the directory/folder/filename that your picture is located in on your computer.

Does that make sense?? Let us know if we have thoroughly confused you . . . :lol:

I've been attempting to change my avatar and personal picture. However, it seems that the previous photo I had up is stuck there. The silly thing wont go away! I've tried the following:

- Delete the previous avatar and profile picture (both seem stuck). It did say the photo was deleted and that no avatar or personal picture existed.

- Let it sit for a while, sign out and sign back in.

- Upload one of the generic photos provided by Celiac.com - the avatar showed up as the generic photo, but then I decided to try uploading a new avatar from my computer and that threw everything off again.

- Size each of the photos UNDER the 150x150 and make sure they were under 50k.

BTW. My image is just a regular jpeg image. Nothing special.. Just a regular image.

The personal photo showed up for a little bit when I uploaded the image from my computer, but then I hit refresh and the old image came back - AGAIN!

I don't understand how the silly thing keeps coming back - I deleted it.. Both of them.

Before I pull my hair out.. What do I do?

      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).

      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...

      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...

      Hi, I was recently diagnosed with stage 3 NASH and doctor is concerned something is caused my disease to progress quicker than they would expect. During blood tests a celiac screen was pulled as my mom is a celiac. 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...

      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.

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.
