Oh no! I hope the rain skips you. Is your basement developed? I hope there wasn't too much damage.

I just a heard a cleaning tip for cleaning up after basement floods.....  Old fashioned (non cream) 30 volume hair peroxide.  Mix 1/4 part peroxide to 3/4 water in a spray bottle.  Wear gloves and mist onto the moistened areas.  Leave the area for a while.  Come back and wipe off.  Supposed to be as effective as bleach for stopping mold growth, without the nasty bleach fumes.

 

If law prohibits you from buying this product, ask a hairdresser to help you.  (Really, hairdressers really don't like using this old fashion developer.  Rarely have it in salons now days, so believe the person if they tell you they don't have it.)

 

I heard this from a person that was plagued with basement floods.  She has had to replace basement walls and such from mold growth after floods, and now swears by this treatment.

Ack, flooding is no fun!

 

Since you mentioned flooding though, you may just fit right in on this thread.  Phlooding seems to be a common topic there for some reason.

      To give you a frame of reference for pretesting gluten consumption necessary to ensure valid antibody testing, here is the current recommendation for those who have been on a gluten free diet: The daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for at least two weeks. Not sure why you mentioned eggs and chicken. They are not sources of gluten. Was that in reference to dietary iron consumption?
    • Churro
      Thanks for your insight. I've been eating wheat bread at least 5 times a week for several months. I've been eating chicken or eggs 5 days a week for at least a year.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Churro! Several things need to be said here: 1. Your physician neglected to order a "total IGA" test to check for IGA deficiency. If a person is IGA deficient, the results of other IGA antibody tests specific to celiac disease will not be valid. A total IGA test should always be ordered when checking for celiac disease with blood IGA antibody test. You should ask your physician to order a total IGA test. 2. Iron deficiency anemia can also give distorted IGA celiac disease blood antibody tests. 3. If you were already on a gluten-free diet or had been restricting gluten consumption for weeks/months prior to the antibody testing blood draw, then the test results would not be valid. Accurate celiac disease blood antibody testing requires you to have been consuming significant amounts of gluten for a significant time period leading up to the blood draw. It takes time for the antibody levels in the blood to build up to detectable levels. 4. Your low iron levels and other symptoms could be due to celiac disease but could also be caused by lots of other medical issues.

      Last month I got blood tests done. My iron level was at 205 ug/dL and 141 ug/dL iron binding capacity unsaturated, 346 ug/dl total iron binding capacity, 59 transferrin % saturation. My ferritin level was at 13 so I got tested for celiac disease last week. My tTG-IgA is <.05, DGP IgA is 4.9 and ferritin level is 9. My doctor didn't order other celiac disease tests. In 2021 I was dealing with severe constipation and hemorrhoids. I'm no longer dealing with constipation. I still deal with hemorrhoids but only about once a week. Also, I've been dealing with very pale skin for at least 5 years. Do you think I have celiac disease?

      Hi Cristiana! It's so nice to meet you! Thank you for the kind reply I am glad I live in a time where you can connect with others through the Internet. That is a mercy I am grateful for.
