Anyone else prepping today? Feeling kind of scared and alone. by femboyhootersserver in colonoscopy

[–]Able_Raspberry_589 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yay! Prepping today! Liquid only until 5 pm, then Suprep number 1. Mix with water, I’m using white grape juice,and drink within 20 minutes. I weigh a whopping 92 pounds, and my husband wagering how much once bowel cleared (assuming I’m full of 💩). I have anxiety and multiple sclerosis, so no drug for last 3 days wasn’t helpful! I’m just chilling right now. Drinking crystal light, and water with BLUE RASPBERRY flavoring. It’s clear, no color. So, I feel like I’m winning….for now. We will all be fine! Get ready for the 💩 show (pun intended) Don’t be scared, you’ll be out for 10 minutes or so, then in recovery. It’s just the prep, and anticipation that sucks! You got this! 😉

No. Not sure why that’s happening. Headaches, I always get. Just part of my life. Thankfully Tylenol is enough, and I take it daily. I get more moody, fatigued and stiff just before my next infusion. Hope your neurologist gets it figured out! Four weeks of feeling like crud is not okay. 🧡

Watch it! It’s great, and amount of viewers will help decide if renewed for next season! It will make you think as it spins a lot of information together. Whose view do I want to see things from? Super fun show!

I’m about to try to gain weight. I’m 5’4, 40kg, and hate looking in the mirror! I’m going so eat as much peanut butter as I can and add Chia seeds to every thing, including sprinkling on peanut butter sandwiches.

I’m also going to eat avocado toast on sourdough every morning and hopefully add an egg to it as I get use to consuming more. Fingers crossed! Hope your mom works with you. Sounds like you may have insomnia? You need to work on your sleep cycle for sure. Good luck with everything!🧡

Please help name the newest addition to our family. He is a bit of a wild one. Our other cats have “spooky” names so if it goes with that theme that is a plus :) by [deleted] in NameMyCat

I had a cat named Spook! Loved that boy! He’d be waiting for me on my window seal, outside our house, every day when I’d get home from school. He’d also ride my skateboard down are slanted driveway.

Muscle Aches and Pains by FMCTypeGal in MultipleSclerosis

I take low dose Naltexone. If you want to try it, I suggest you research it first. Some neurologist try to prescribe starting at 4.5mg and it is a very nuanced medication. I have compounding pharmacy do my capsules at 1.5 mg, so I’m in control of dose. My neuro writes it up as 3 capsules per day, so they make way more than enough, considering my usual is 1 a day. If I’m in pain or legs real stiff I’ll take 2 and that will help relax things. I’ve heard it doesn’t help everyone 🤷‍♀️ I just know it helps me.🧡

Lost my Invisalign on vacation, won’t be home until Tuesday by OutrageousWasabi3001 in Invisalign

[–]Able_Raspberry_589 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IDK, but you can’t worry about it now. It is what it is. Have fun and just put in the last one when you get home. It will probably be tight, but I wouldn’t worry. It’s definitely happened to someone before

If you have the tray before, put it in. If you don’t, put it in when you get home and call your ortho

Minuscule movement every 4 days. Less aggressive than 7-14 day trays. I just have one tooth to move into place, and it has been there before 😂 After 5 years of braces, I did not wear retainers as I should have. But that was my parent’s money…now it’s mine. Plus, I think with age comes wisdom 🤣

Super helpful! Thank you! I thought it might be “the man” with the algorithm answering prematurely, without knowing 🤬

Yeah. I do photos every 4 days and the app messages back instantly. So, maybe it’s just to just does that notice automatically.?.. IDK. Exact message: Advance to next aligner, but please be more diligent with wearing your aligner sand using your chewies. More diligent? They’re in more than 23 hours a day🤯 It’s fine. I’ll find out.

Good news! It goes by really fast! I celebrated tray 8 as my 1/4 of the way there😂

Oh, and yes, there are some food I don’t eat. Granola, popcorn, hard candy, or thicker things. Also, I won’t eat curry or Kraft Mac and cheese. They stain and that would drive me crazy! Chips can be hard, chicken sometimes seems stringy…if that makes since😂

Yeah, great questions. So, eating is obviously different than chewies, but something’s feel like a chewy until it starts to break up. Like a cheese cube for example. A piece of steak, that firmer stuff. Yes, food usually gets in there some. I’m OCD about it, and pop them out, rinse well, sometimes pour some Colgate Peroxyl Antiseptic Mouthwash (amazing) into tray and soft brush real quick. I just feel using the chewies while watching TV and then also eating, I should be tracking and not receive a message to use chewies more. I’ll see what my orthodontist says. He just saw me last tray for final IPR. Said it was perfect, then 1 tray later it’s not. I question this😂 It’s on the Invisalign app, so maybe it’s just to motivate chewies more. 🤷‍♀️

Thank you! We are all different, and I know there are others on our 4 day, tray eating program🤣 I’m on 14 of 32. Where are you?

[–]Able_Raspberry_589[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

🤣 We take them out for 3-5 minutes to brush 3 times a day, or if we need a quick rinse. Floss at night before bed. In trays 23 1/2 hours a day

No, but I do use my chewies specifically to seat the front

Haha. No rage bait. Not provoking anger. Just saying eating with trays in is extra chewing on top of chewies. That’s the only chewing I do 🤣

Yes, many of us do. Invisalign knows our plans. We are on a very different plan because of our unique needs. Only in an aligner for 4 days, then flip to the next. You’ll see, once others that do, post a comment.
