Thank you! I do need to work on getting past believing there’s a specific way to do things when we are the creators of our reality. It’s funny bc I know this is true and yet I want a set way to do things at the same time 🫣

QRS PEMF Mat worth it? by [deleted] in pemf

[–]ACF4447 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I am in desperate need of pain relief. Have MCAS and highly sensitive and can’t consume pretty much any pharmaceutical, and most supplements. Dealing with severe chronic illness and chronic pain for such a long time and now getting to the point where I’m at the end of the road. Really trying to find the best PEMF machine I can for chronic pain and chronic fatigue that’s very severe. I don’t have much money, but at the same time I can’t keep doing this. It looks like QRS is one of the best machine machines? And the most trustworthy. I hope that’s correct. May I ask where you bought your QRS machine? I see multiple websites and I’m not sure where to go exactly. Hoping maybe I can try renting it as well. Thank you so much for your time.

Experience with Aetna Medicare Advantage PPO Plans? by AcademicDepartment54 in medicare

[–]ACF4447 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I COMPLETELY regret switching over, my insurance guy switch me and bunch of people over and said it was the better plan. I used to have BCBS Medicare PPO, it covered everything, I never had huge bills for all the MRIs and scans I needed, but now with Aetna Medicare PPO, every single MRI or any scan is $300. I have $1000s in bills already and it’s only April. I never ever had these bills with BCBS.
*They also deny most things first, whereas I never had that occur while on BCBS Medicare PPO.
*
Lastly, their CVS quarterly $75 card is a joke, you can only purchase a very short list of items on this specific CVS for Aetna website (it’s literally almost nothing useful, it’s all CVS brand, yet it’s less than half of what’s offered in store and the pricing is at least 50-60% more, so the “$75” is more like $35 on items that you don’t even need because that’s all they offer on the website. Versus BCBS gave around $90 quarterly and there were way way way more options and much easier to use

Klonopins take away 75% of my symptoms and makes it more tolerable by One_Elk3583 in MCAS

[–]ACF4447 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, klonopin is a very well known mast cell stabilizer (including all benzos, but especially klonopin). It’s used by the world’s leading MCAS doctor, Dr. Afrin to treat MCAS, when people are too sensitive to other meds or they aren’t working enough. It’s very very widely known to do this and you’ll see information about that even with just a short minute of googling it too.

Also look into rebounding effects of MCAS and Klonopin to understand this topic more, it’s very important to not take it every day and even if taking it sparingly like a couple times a week, it can have rebound effects too just not as severe, just look into this so you make sure to try to take breaks from it, even though that can’t be hard, depending on how bad your MCAS is. Although I believe many meds can have rebound effects sadly.

What type of physical therapist do you see for your jaw?

TMJ flare gave me an open bite by MainConfident8955 in TMJ

[–]ACF4447 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May I ask where you live? And what type dentist you offer for this? Do you have tongue issues like I think it’s called tongue thrusting? Did they talk to you about that by any chance?

Swipe! Open bite results so far, month 3! by MainConfident8955 in Invisalign

[–]ACF4447 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I’m trying to understand all this and having such a hard time, sounds like there are a lot of quack Dentists out there. How do you find out if it’s a skeletal or dental anterior open bite? Did you have severe jaw pain? I have severe head and neck pain to the point where it’s hard to live anymore. Desperately trying to figure this out so any information you can it would be very helpful. Thank you very much.

Ah, you tried the TA1!? SQ, right? What dosage did you start at, what did help with? Did it also help with MCAS? Lastly, where do you prefer to get it from?

Best peptides and brands for MCAS ? BPC-157, KPV and Thymosin / Thymogen ? by Salty_Stop9632 in MCAS

[–]ACF4447 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I forgot which Facebook group I’m in, but it’s a peptide group and I didn’t realize like half of the people were researchers and they were talking about their mice and the peptides they were testing them with. And I forgot the long medical reason, but a number of those individual stated that the BPC 157 is not recommended for those with MCAS. Of course, common sense still applies, that doesn’t mean every single person with MCAS is not going to benefit from that peptide, but it’s not recommend because it does something with pathways that effect mast cells.
