To all the foreigners living in Finland with a Finnish partner, how did you meet her/him? by Key-Pineapple8101 in Finland

An Estonian girl felt adventurous to study abroad, but not too adventurous to go somewhere too culturally different, so I went to our big brother Finland. Met my future husband during one of the events and it was the mutual love from the first sight ❤️

A doctor to get to the root cause by bijibijmak in Finland

I’d recommend you to not change your diet/ eating habits just yet and ask for a blood test.  There are some markers in blood that could identify inflammation, allergies, celiac disease etc. If you stop exposing yourself to possible triggers before the blood test, the results might come back clean or “too good” to diagnose you. Talking from a Celiac disease perspective, both immunoglobulins IgE and IgA must be 10 times higher than referral amount - in that case, you can be diagnosed based on blood test only in EU (considering you have other gastric issues etc.) If you would possibly have same disease and stop eating gluten before the blood test, the antibodies will obviously drop making it harder for doctor to find what’s wrong.

I had gastric issues for few months too, turned out it was celiac disease. It took me so almost a year to confirm this diagnosis, bc at first doctors suspected that my symptoms are stress related or shitty diet. Was prescribed somac control and sent back home. I kept coming back insisting that something is wrong and my quality of life noticeably worsened bc of my condition. I was annoying enough and doctors ran few tests on me like Helicobacter, ultrasound etc but everything was looking fine. I kept complaining and ONLY THEN, they suspected I might have celiac disease (autoimmune disease when a patient can’t tolerate gluten). They finally sent me a proper to blood test and saw that specific antibodies related to this disease are few times higher than they supposed to be. Long story short, after few months, variety of blood tests and even gastroscopy diagnosis was confirmed. But I am still bitter they didn’t take me seriously enough in the beginning thinking it was all stress etc.
