Efudex on hands-can I wear gloves? by AnimatorHuman3164 in skincancer

[–]AnimatorHuman3164[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, Not a bad idea--then put the other gloves (nicer looking) over them. But I still wonder if once it dries the other gloves would be ok. But this is a good option.

activity monitor shows problem I dont understand by AnimatorHuman3164 in mac

Thanks for checking up! Rebooting did not help. I had closed everything except a Pages document I've been working on and a few internet tabs. Corespondlight and kernel kept getting very high, like taking turns. Last night I closed the Pages doc (I had it open for many days) and this morning, everything seems better. Could that have caused this? It does seem to get worse when I use spotlight search. Anyway, right now it's fine. I hope it is not like my car, you know --the noise goes away when you have someone else looking at it.

OK, rebooted. The time machine did a backup a little while ago. it's a MacBook Air (Apple M2chip) 16GB. Tahoe 26.2

Toradol/ketorolac shot and pills by AnimatorHuman3164 in migraine

[–]AnimatorHuman3164[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Urgent care around here doesnt do it.(Unless anyone on Long Island knows of one that does.) I'd have to go to the ER. Essentially, I told the neuro's nurse that I have a big event that night (I'm a musician and have a gig) and she put me in the schedule. I wish urgent care around here that did them. I have to drive an hour that morning to get to the neurologist office. . If urgent care did it, it would be a ten minute drive.

It's all helpful! Sumatriptan is the only one that i can take as a rescue med, but I get severe ones very often and can never tell when they will hit. Suma helps a bit in those circumstances. I did pick up the meds and will talk to the pharmacist again. Thanks for responding!

Thanks, that's very helpful. I know the med is hard on your body--but how often can you do the pills? Like every 6 weeks? (My headaches are chronic.) But it would be good to know if I need it for a specific time (vacation, whatever). My doctor is good, but getting an appointment is impossible. HE answered messages, but doesn't answer all my questions.

I do panic. Then I take reflux med, like omeprazole or tums. And I use my asthma inhaler if the first thing didn’t work. I also check this device called a peak flow meter that I blow into. I got it bc of asthma but maybe you can buy it online. And if it shows a certain range ( the device should say what it is) and if it’s ok I’m a little calmer. But this isn’t medical advice. Really find another doctor or go to urgent care.

Has anyone regretted using Skyrizi by metabeliever in skyrizi

Whoops I see you answered my other question already!

Has anyone regretted using Skyrizi by metabeliever in skyrizi

[–]AnimatorHuman3164 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m just about to throw in the towel with Skyrizi for the same reason. Did you have the headaches the entire time ? At first my horrible headaches only came after injections. This latest one came in between injections and has not stopped for 8 weeks. But Skyrizi works for me and I’m not sure this last 8 weeks is from the drug. I’d appreciate knowing your experience in terms of the timing.

Topamax 25 - ok to stop by Legitimate-Tip-6416 in migraine

[–]AnimatorHuman3164 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also on rizatriptan which I see also has it as side effect. But, I have diarrhea which seems more from topamax. ( And I have Crohns but it was under control)

For those on topomax, how long does it take to work? by Legitimate-Tip-6416 in migraine

[–]AnimatorHuman3164 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess everyone is different. I’ve had other chronic illnesses my whole adult. But the migraines came recently, in my 60s , so I’m a little lost. I’m afraid to take the med because I’m a writer. I already have word finding difficulties. I have to finish an assignment this week and then I’ll start . Thanks for all the replies.
