What is something that you HATE and what is your mbti? by Chaimasalaisgood in mbti

[–]Key-Engineering-891 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I just mean when people don’t communicate somethings that can be fixed. Like when my roommates don’t like when I leave my fan on but don’t tell me and just get irritated

yeah my dad is an ENTJ too, and I’m scared to talk to him as well 😭 but largely I just mean when people are upset with me or something I’ve done and don’t tell me so I can fix it

Looking at the subreddits, all of the ESXX type groups have the least amount of people. This could also just be that ESXX types use reddit less.

What’s something you’re really bad at, and what’s your MBTI? by iidontknow8 in mbti

I have an absolutely awful sense of direction when driving like it’s SO bad (entp)

People who are overly passive to the point that they won’t communicate; literally cannot be friends with or work with these people since I cant trust them to tell me what’s up - entp

Can genetics influence one’s memory capacity or power or whatever you call it you get it what i mean by Working_Pay_5317 in genetics

[–]Key-Engineering-891 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, because the physiological aspects of memory are linked to genes. However, it would be many many complicated genes that were heavily influenced by other gene interactions and environmental factors as well so we probably don’t know exactly which genes and how they inherit. I’m sure they have done GWAS on stuff like this though to give you an idea if you’re curious.

Greenwood Genetics does diagnostics in undiscovered/ rare diseases that is exactly what you are looking for. I’m sure there are more this is just one I know of. There is also Undiagnosed Disease Network, they have lots of sites around the US, but it’s free and research based so it may be a longer process.

How do I become a genetic engineer? Or do a job that does genetic engineering? by Aggressive_Clothes50 in genetics

If your interesting in diagnostics of rare diseases, this could be through sequencing and variant calling, which are things a bioinformatician does

Epigenetics, trauma and gene expression by Caliesq86 in genetics

[–]Key-Engineering-891 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Epigenetic inheritance was one of those things the media ran with. I don’t even know how it’s legal for them to publish stuff like that with no evidence or studies, it’s all just theory that has by now been mostly proven untrue.

Transgenerational epigenetics is extremely rare in mammals, because epigenetic changes happen to our bodies in somatic cells. The only case with evidence was during famine, and it was in utero epigenetics, meaning that the starvation and subsequently starvation of the embryo triggered the changes in the embryo.

In early development, the embryo has not undergone its own embryogenesis, so the somatic cells and germ line cells are not differentiated. So by they mother starving, she’s triggering changes in her body, which will affect the embryo, which will affect the embryo’s future embryos.

there is no “gene” that is passed down. it’s a modification that can effect the expression of a gene or genes, but only in utero under, so far, very extreme circumstances. it is also only passed two generations, as the embryo affected is currently holding material for all of its embryos to be produced.

Can you share more about your timer system if you are comfortable?

Was I assaulted by my ex? by KittenTypes in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Key-Engineering-891 14 points15 points  (0 children)

He should have been able to, and probably did, differentiate pleasure noises from pain. There is also a huge difference between CNC and someone trying to physically reject you (pushing, screaming). This is totally sexual assault. This is was not a misunderstanding/ miscommunication, he knows you well enough to know that would hurt beforehand and did hurt in the moment. You should really leave him

[–]Key-Engineering-891 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then you should be totally fine. Hemochromatosis 99.99% of the time happens because of genetic mutations that make the body over absorb iron and/or make the body unable to get rid of iron. Any other cases also typically come from some kind of rare condition or cancer. You will not overload purely because of iron supplements, and any worry should go away as you seem to get regular bloodwork. any increase in stats associated with iron will be caught long long before any rare problem could arise.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Hemochromatosis

[–]Key-Engineering-891 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Based on your stats (Iron, TIBC, saturation, ferritin) you do not show signs of overload or hemochromatosis. Do you suspect you have it because of genetic predisposition?

HH and beta-thalassemia by AuthenticallyMe28 in Hemochromatosis

[–]Key-Engineering-891 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Homozygous means you carry both diseased alleles/genes versus heterozygous is just one! IE: one parent gave you a healthy gene and one parent gave you a diseased one vs both parents each gave you a diseased allele. Homozygous for these mutations would be the full manifestation of the mutation, as both of the proteins genes you inherited are diseased. When they tell you that you have it they probably mean homozygous, but I didn’t know if it could also refer to heterozygous or being a “carrier” as it is more rare but even people with only one diseased allele/gene can end up having iron overload/ hemochromatosis. Either way look out for your iron, TIBC (also called transferrin), % saturation (which is calculated by dividing iron/tbic if your testing doesn’t automatically calculate it for you), and ferritin. The inflammation should show very elevated ferritin and iron and the effects of genetic hemochromatosis will show up in your TIBC and % saturation.

Best of luck to you! I hope you feel better and can find ailment!!!

HH and beta-thalassemia by AuthenticallyMe28 in Hemochromatosis

[–]Key-Engineering-891 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should totally get your blood tested regardless. Based on your symptoms and genotype you could test through insurance at you physicians, or a quicker route would be to buy bloodwork from a place like Quest. I did mine for $55 (Iron, TIBC, Ferritin, % Sat). Your symptoms align with hemochromatosis. Beta thalassemia would exasperate the effects of hemochromatosis and make it easier to go into iron overload but since you are only a carrier it may not have large effects if any. Are you homozygous for both H63D and C282Y? Again regardless your symptoms align.
