Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
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.
Timelies all!
House update:
All the flooring is done and the walls are repainted. The new cabinets have been installed in the kitchen, and most of the cabinet pulls are attached. Some of the countertops are installed(one of the pieces turned out to be too small) and some of the appliances have been reattached.
Pretty close to being able to move back in.(Finally!)
That’s great, Sheryl!
I just got back from the optometrist two hours ago, and my dilated pupils finally let me put in my Zenni order. Kinda fun. Now that I’ve started playing with fun hair color (loved the purple, planning on teal in a month or so), I went with a plain black rim that would contrast with them.
If I have a migraine that won't go away, steroids are the only the thing that work. Either IV dexamethasone or prednisone orally (either a Medrol pack or a 10-day course). But let me tell you, doctors do not like prescribing steroids these days. I used to be able to go to urgent care for an IV, but they won't do steroids anymore.
Sadly, I’m still at the perimenopause phase where I get my period more often rather than less. I do not like it. I also didn’t make it out of the house today. I’m attacking my current uti with a second round of antibiotics and I just hit a wall today where I didn’t have any energy. I cried and went back to bed. Now we’re watching Moongirl as a family and eating pasta e fagioli.
Ugh Dana, that sucks, and I noticed that about steroids. I usually always get one for the cough that won’t die, but the doctor I saw wouldn’t give me one this time.
which apparently is also a thing in perimenopause. Fun times.
They what??!!
Let's call it Buffistas, we'll meet online :)
I like it.
Cass, probably not for everyone but apparently having inconsistent estrogen levels can make certain brain meds inconsistent as well. It’s fun times that I hope you avoid, but the doctor I saw wasn’t surprised at all when I mentioned it.
Huh. My doctor suggested I stop using my allergy med (Flonase) in the winter, because she says it’s a steroid. My allergies are mostly to pollen, so there’s less floating about in winter, but in NC it’s rarely entirely gone.
I don’t know what to do - I should have a -t and yet I do not. She texted me once that she dropped her phone and then didn’t replay again, so maybe it is broken? I called the airport and paged her and waited for almost 20 min, but she never came.
Hopefully she’s on her way and hit some traffic or something? Or she is in an endless taxi/Lyft line? She texted me about an hour ago, which was about an hour after she was supposed to land. Hrmph.
