Does your family forget you have APD?

My kids are adults and both them and my husband forget I have APD and try to give me verbal directions, get annoyed when things they tell me don't 'stick' and I ask the same question again later. Sometimes I just go along and don't ask again just to avoid the whole thing. Does anyone else have this problem?

Mini Steals my Bluetooth connection even when I'm not in the car

I work from home and use a Jabra bluetooth headset that connects to both my laptop and my iPhone. My office is above the garage. Whenever my husband starts up my 2026 Mini 4D S, it steals the bluetooth connection for my phone from my headset, sometimes in the middle of a call, and is seriously annoying. I have to go into settings and manually disconnect it to reconnect my headset. Anyone else see this?

Issues with some electrical devices?

Ever since we starting visiting Windsor a few years ago and since we moved here a couple of years ago we have had issues with some electrical devices acting strangely. Kitchen appliances, TVs, computer monitors seem to be fine, but we've had weird issues with my husband's CPAP, my electric blanket and some other things. It's not just that they power off like with an intermittent fluctuation, the CPAP has to be kept unplugged during the day otherwise a high pitched alarm goes off. My electric blanket is stranger though - it changes settings on it's own and won't auto-shutoff like it should. All these devices that are acting weird worked just fine before we moved here. We saw this in my daughter's apartment and in our new house. It's like the power is dirty or something, anyone else see this?

Diarrhea for 1 month after eating Royo bagels for only 1 week

I've been restricting calories (about 1200/day) since February and everything was going great until I discovered Royo bagels. The first 3 days I ate a whole one each day, and on the last 2 days I only ate 1/2 of one each day. On the last day I ate them I started having cramping/bloating/TONS of mucous in my stool. I haven't eaten any more since and it's been about a month now. My gut is usually VERY difficult to upset and I can typically eat everything/any combinations (my family calls me a goat) For example - my mother cooked a turkey on low heat for 3 days for Thanksgiving one year and everyone got food poisoning except me. This kind of stomach/gut upset just doesn't happen to me, like EVER. For the last month I haven't had diarrhea per se, it's mostly just tons (and I mean tons) of mucous and probably some of the most disgusting smelling gas I've ever had in my life. Things over the last few days have been a bit better, there's been less mucous, but it's going slow to get back to normal. Ginger tea has helped with the pain, and I tried the BRAT diet which helped, but its still going on, even if I do think I'm headed in the right direction (slowly). Anyone experienced anything like this?

Edited to add: I have a really slow gut, always have. Not constipation, just slower than other people. After I had a colonoscopy last fall I didn't have a bm for almost 2 weeks, but everything seemed normal after that.
