Replying To A Poll

I would like to respond to the "Getting to know everyone" poll but feel like there must be something that I don't know. When I hit the respond button, I get the usual blank screen for a reply. Wouldn't there be a reply box with the list of questions in the poll, so that we can fill in the blanks? After fruitless attempts to figure this out, I gave up and wrote down all the questions so that I could type them in the blank response box and respond like the others. I got about halfway done with my post and ran out of room. So what's the secret?

Ok, this is another question for the computer challanged - copy and paste someone else's answers and then what?

Thanks

Then delete their answers and add your own in the place you deleted. Which will leave you with the question and your answer :)

Copy the information from the post. Then paste it into your post. Then type in your answers underneath each question. Or type all the answers in and then delete the original question...does that make sense?

The very first post on that thread lists the questions with no answers. Do your copy and paste from that thread.

OK, my question: I voted in the "what brand do you use" poll, and wanted to post a reply, but was not able. Instead of the reply button, there was a button that said the poll was closed. I like the replies to the polls, the explanations are very interesting. Why couldn't I do that with this one?

Yes, I want to know about that as well. I wanted to reply to that poll too :blink:

That one is a bit confusing for sure :huh:

It's a difficult poll for me because the products are apples and oranges - I can't say that I like one more than any others because they are for different stuff. I like Pamelas for the cookies and I like Tinkyada pasta - I can't choose between them.

When you set up a poll though you can choose to allow people to respond or not, and I think that the person who set up this poll did that, maybe unintentionally. I don't know if that can be changed.

Yeah, it is a difficult poll. I chose the brand that had my favorite gluten-free product because many of them had a large selection of products I liked.

You can't reply to that one because the creator of the poll made it so you can only vote, but cannot reply to the thread. That's one of the options you have when creating a poll.

What a bummer! A lot of information is shared in the replies to a poll! I chose "other", since I use Mrs. Leeper's and Bob's Red Mill, and neither of them were listed.

Yeah. The other problem with that type of poll is that it quickly moves to the back without any replies to keep it on the front page. I'll make a new one with the same sort of thing, though.

Thank you! I found it and voted on it!

      Is Ka'Chava Gluten-Free?

      I contacted the company and they explained that the barley ingredient is taken from barley sprouts, not the mature grain head seeds. The sprouts do not contain gluten. Gluten production comes at a later stage in the plant's development. This is science. Some of you who are reacting to this product may be reacting to other ingredients and not gluten or...

      Tapioca Intolerance?

      Celiac, and sensitive to latex, kiwi, avocado, bananas and tapioca. After having a reaction to another Amy’s product (canned chili) which is labeled gluten-free and has no listed tapioca ingredients, I have realized that for those of us who are sensitive to tapioca, it may be even worse than I thought. Not sure if I’ve got this right, but I do know that com...

      Is Ka'Chava Gluten-Free?

      I found this comment section somewhat toxic by a few of the folks. My family has been consuming Ka’chava for the last two years. I am the only one with celiac in our house. I would enjoy a smoothie twice a week, only because every time it would rip apart my guts. I figured it was due to some of the greens, etc in the blend. As various products/supplements w...

      Wholefoods 365 Organic Wheatgrass Powder

      Hi Everyone, I recently purchased this wheatgrass not realizing that it wasn’t gluten free. I had two servings before I got really sick. Abdominal cramps , diarrhea and horrible nausea. My daughter read the label and told me it wasn’t labeled gluten free. I thought this was safe because supposedly it’s healthy. I called WholeFoods and they told ...

      Black Pepper Reactions

      Yes, unfortunately I was diagnosed about 15 years ago. Some of us I guess the gut never heals and from what I've learned you can actually have a setback which is probably the stage I am at where I actually have become more sensitive to more items.

      Tapioca Intolerance?

      By Dulcita · Posted

      Celiac, and sensitive to latex, kiwi, avocado, bananas and tapioca. After having a reaction to another Amy’s product (canned chili) which is labeled gluten-free and has no listed tapioca ingredients, I have realized that for those of us who are sensitive to tapioca, it may be even worse than I thought. Not sure if I’ve got this right, but I do know that companies that focus on gluten-free foods use a lot of tapioca. If a certain product doesn’t have any tapioca ingredients, they see no reason to list tapioca or its relatives in the “known allergens” or the “produced in a facility that also uses …..” statement — because it hasn’t been designated a known allergen.  They probably don’t even feel it necessary to apply the kind of Best Practices protocols (extra cleaning) to a production line that may have used tapioca in a previous product. So we may be ingesting tapioca when we are eating something, seemingly tapioca free, produced in a gluten-free dedicated facility. Really discouraging.

My daughter read the label and told me it wasn’t labeled gluten free. I thought this was safe because supposedly it’s healthy. I called WholeFoods and they told me that they can find out more about the product and email me when it was picked and harvested. I was diagnosed back in 2019 and I really should know better! Anyone else had a reaction to wheatgrass powder?

      Black Pepper Reactions

      By Blue Roan · Posted

      Hi Emily! I was just diagnosed a year ago and could not touch nuts, corn (or anything with corn-based ingredients), lactose, or black pepper in the first 8 or so months. Otherwise I had a lot of abdominal discomfort, dizziness/vertigo (especially with corn and pepper) and inflammation throughout the body. I was pretty much eating plain cooked veggies and chicken for the first few months because they were safe and reliable.  Over time, I have slowly started to tolerate some of the no-no foods, but my system is still sensitive to the pepper and has a limit to corn/lactose before symptoms occur. When you’re first diagnosed, you will likely be sensitive to a lot of other foods because your gut is healing from the damage and your body needs to reset. I find that keeping a food diary  and only slowly introducing other foods back into your diet over time is helpful. It is frustrating to feel so limited, but give it some time and patience. It can take the gut years to fully heal in many cases.

      Irregular periods AFTER going gluten-free?

      By Blue Roan · Posted

      Hi there, I am 30 and was diagnosed with celiac almost a year ago after a series of severe “unexplained” abdominal episodes. Everything is improving and I am feeling so much better overall except my cycle is worse. Has anyone else had a similar experience?  I got my period as a pre-teen and my cycles have been regular for as long as I can remember: every 21 days, lasting 5 days. My periods were heavy and I always had severe cramping at the start that subsided after the first two days.  I went gluten-free immediately when I was diagnosed in February. At first, my cycles were the same but around July, I started noticing very crazy symptoms around that time of the month: chills all over the body, severe headaches, some hot flashes, dry mouth and then cramps starting a few days earlier than usual. My cycles also started happening later and later. This time around, I’m on Day 35 and no period so far, but still cramping/abdominal pain/nausea on and off for the past week. It has been feeling like it’s about to happen any minute but nothing. I even get the pelvic contractions/pains but nothing after. I cannot sleep from all the hormonal fluctuations and chills. I can confirm I am not pregnant.  I’ve seen the endocrinologist, OBGYN, primary, and multiple gastro doctors throughout the year. No IBD ( but possible IBS), thyroid panel normal, thyroid ultrasound normal, negative for Hashimoto’s. I had a full vitamin panel and all levels normal (no anemia or vitamin B deficiency). After some testing, the gyn thinks PCOS is highly unlikely and that my body is “still adjusting” to going gluten-free. I’ve been strict gluten-free for nearly a year though.   All of my regular labs are normal and my antibodies are on a downward trend. I am really confused because more of my research points to the gluten-free diet resulting in better cycles rather than the opposite. While my cycles are not as heavy, they’re more unpredictable and uncomfortable with all these new symptoms.
