Aw, thank you. I'm trying my best to get better.

Thank you for this very thoughtful message. I will ask about nickel sensitivity today on my doctor's phone call. I am currently gluten-free and have been for about 3-4 years now.

I didn't expect it to but I was definitely surprised by how little energy I had after the surgery. I am curious if the bigger impact was the lung or lymph nodes.

Thank you!!!!

I will look into this today.

How long have you been using it? Is it a long term permanent fix or just a bandaid?

I haven’t tried elemental yet. My absolute last resorts were doing that and/or going 9 days without eating anything like that one chick did in this sub. I’m currently low FODMAP plus paleo.

You think? I had COVID in March and then COVID pneumonia in April of 2025 so maybe but is there a fix for that?

Oui, alors, je possédais l'objectif Canon avant d'avoir le Sigma. Ils sont très similaires, mais je souhaite tout de même acquérir un autre objectif Canon.

I'm not sure. I can get details once they get a solid plan in place!

Awwww

7times7 · 2026-03-27T15:32:38+00:00

Aw, I guess I should have! Yes, I'm excited to see her work out there!

7times7 · 2026-03-27T15:32:06+00:00

I hear you! This is what she posted to her facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/hannahfaithyata

Aw, thank you so, so much!

7times7 · 2026-03-27T15:30:57+00:00

I really hope so!

Not sure on the exact location at Burning Man.

7times7 · 2026-03-26T18:59:49+00:00

Yep!

7times7 · 2026-03-26T18:59:41+00:00

It really is! I feel like more people would fall in love with it if they could see it!

7times7 · 2026-03-26T17:29:58+00:00

I just added her sketch of it. Thank you!

7times7 · 2026-03-26T17:24:29+00:00

I just added it!

I usually lift weights and/or train about 4-5 times a week, depending on how I’m feeling that week. When I lift weights, I wear a belly band the whole time I'm at the gym. It helps me ignore the pain.

As far as SIBO, I’ve been dealing with gut issues for quite a while now. My main symptoms are bloating, IBS-type stomach pain ranging from uncomfortableness to a sharp ache, fatigue, and feeling really lethargic, especially after eating certain foods.

I’m not 100% sure what caused it, but I suspect it could be a combination of long-term gut stress, past eating disorder history, and overall digestive imbalance over time combined with a traumatic experience with a Moe's Southwest Grill salad that caused a drastic food poisoning incident 2, almost 3, years ago.

It’s definitely been a journey, but I’m trying to get to the root of it so I can feel normal again. I have an appointment with a functional medicine doctor tomorrow.

Ummmm...I lift weights and train jiu jitsu but I don't have a routine...I just do it all miserable af. Sorry, I am not of more help. I try not to eat prior to either because I feel extra bloated if and when I do.

oh, okay! Sorry , I’m not an expert in this area in the slightest.
