lol I was just thinking that!

My hair has thinned a lot, which I hate, but tbd if it is age, due to weight loss, due to bleaching the heck out of my hair for a couple years, or some combo. It’s no longer falling out like crazy, but it hasn’t grown back either.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I feel a nostalgic urge to bring up thread proliferation, for some reason

I have been In Menopause since 2019 AIFG.

I mean except for the visible aging and lack of fitness, but not menstruating? I can’t believe I did that for 33 years, give or take a couple of kids.

Right?!? I mean, mine got shortcut by the cancer thing, but it's amazing how quickly I've gotten used to not having to deal with it every 3-3 1/2 weeks (once a month, my ass) and thinking back on what a nuisance it was seems like a dim memory (again, partly because I've had bigger fish to fry, but still).

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

I loved not having a period with my 2 consecutive Mirenas (which would have been 3, except apparently my cervix is made of steel).

Medical question that dr. google has been no help on: I'm tapering off the prednisone I was prescribed for the bronchial thing I've been dealing with, and I have two days of antibiotics to go. My coughing and shortness of breath are starting to come back, whee. If this keeps going, do I contact the urgent care clinic I went to for this?

Definitely. You might need a different antibiotic. Are you still using the inhaler?

Yep, still using the inhaler for the max four times a day allowed.

The other thing about being on the prednisone is that I haven't had any migraines or all-body inflammation pain while I've been on it. Once I find a damn PCP, I guess I'll mention that to them.
