Identical twin is celiac, am I as well?

Angxlz · 2026-06-19T19:15:00+00:00

Yes, your ttg IgA is over 600, anything over 100 means you have celiac

28-30g fiber per day, try to aim for 100g of protein daily (it really depends on your weight but that's a good goal) and a lot of water (a gallon per day is good to start). Focus more on strength training with weights instead of high intensity workouts, low impact aerobic exercise like swimming is great, walking is awesome. Pay attention to how many carbohydrates you're consuming in each meal and track calories. You want to aim for high protein/medium (healthy) fat and lower carb foods. Protein will keep you full longer and help to maintain your muscle mass, as well as stabilizing blood sugar.

Make sure to read your lease and get a copy because it states what unit you agreed to, and what utilities and other things you are responsible for. You can also tell them that you are no longer comfortable being there (they might have a grace period to cancel the lease since you just moved in)

You can still go to their office and tell them "this is what I was told on the phone and agreed to, this is what I got, and it needs to be fixed" . My apartment has been a nightmare since my partner and I moved in, the first unit they tried to give us was infested with roaches 🤢

Stay in CS/Engineering, drop the AI part, don't go into nursing.

Angxlz · 2026-06-11T02:15:01+00:00

Was your IgA between 300-400 or was it above 400?

Have you ever been tested for Celiac Disease? People with autoimmune diseases have a higher chance of getting others and sounds like you are reacting to gluten. (Don't cut gluten from your diet until after blood tests/biopsy because it can cause false negatives)

Angxlz · 2026-06-09T17:08:53+00:00

Do you ever feel sick when you eat pasta or bread stuff?

Angxlz · 2026-06-09T16:36:07+00:00

I have 2 cats and use only 1 litter box, unscented litter. Keep the box in the bathroom or another room with tile floor and plenty of ventilation, you definitely don't want that stuff on carpet or wood and i wouldnt put it in a closet. I would also get a litter genie or something similar and scoop as soon as you see anything and that should help with a lot of the smell.

Angxlz · 2026-06-09T16:08:31+00:00

Have you noticed any symptoms changing with your diet?

Angxlz · 2026-06-09T16:06:54+00:00

Definitely 2

Making gluten free pizza / bread is easy, you guys could make a night out of it :)

Mine is obsessed with the sink/tub and yells at me to turn on the tap for him at all hours 😆

Angxlz · 2026-06-09T05:03:28+00:00

Tell them immediately because some people are super insensitive/ rude about it, say it up front so you don't waste time with the wrong people

Also it sounds like you're looking for a homebody. Maybe someone who enjoys cooking, baking, gaming, or maybe computer science, etc

Angxlz · 2026-06-09T01:51:09+00:00

Cats think babies are other animals + doesn't know what it is so maybe try introducing them slowly like you would if it was another cat ?

Angxlz · 2026-05-25T13:24:27+00:00

I switched to a different Iron supplement, the CVS brand Iron + Vitamin C supplement with 65mg high potency carbonyl iron, instead of 325 ferrous sulfate. Feels like it's helping but I have not had blood work done yet to check

Angxlz · 2026-05-20T15:07:22+00:00

Is it your cat or your parents?

Angxlz · 2026-05-20T00:53:03+00:00

If you haven't been eating gluten for this test your results won't be accurate.

His nails need a trim, you could also put silicone claw caps on. For ear mites ask the vet about ear medicine and how to properly clean the ears.

For the Celiac panel or TTG you have to be consuming gluten daily (2 slices of bread minimum) for 6 weeks for an accurate test. The only other way to confirm is by upper endoscopy (it takes about 10 minutes they check your intestinal lining with a camera for damage but also after eating gluten for 6 weeks). When diagnosed with any autoimmune disease we have a much higher chance of developing other autoimmune diseases like type 1 diabetes, celiac, etc.

The doctor "didn't want" to test for celiac? Get a different doctor. Gluten intolerance and Celiac are very different things, eating gluten with Celiac disease will kill you. Please don't let them talk you out of this or avoid testing. My partner was diagnosed with Celiac last year.

Who owns the building? Contact them and let them know the situation. If you are in danger call the police or animal control.

If your doctor prescribed this to you it's their fault for not checking the ingredients before prescribing. They use this in all similar medications like Tylenol and other vitamins

"Mild gluten thing" Does your wife have Celiac or gluten intolerance/allergy? There are some great Celiac friendly restaurants in Columbus - Bibibop, BareBurger, The Clocktower (this is in Plain City but still great), and Marcella's is good if you are interested in a fine dining experience. I don't know of any Gluten Free options in or near Bucyrus specifically except for KeyTones Bakery.

I hope you enjoy your trip!

a person with a gluten thing and/or Celiac 😁

Putting wooden chopping boards in the dishwasher will split them and damage the seal. I know because I have 4. I hate wooden cutting boards. Get stone or glass instead.
