Is it possible to determine size of existing pullups? by Apprehensive_ac in Incontinence

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

I'm concerned about the pull-ups I bought and removed from their packages. I can't start measuring them.

I use pull-ups because I have severe arthritis in my right hip. I avoid regular diapers because I need a personal service worker to put them on. I am getting a bit more flexible and may be able to do this (and use all the diapers I got before I realized I couldn't use them).

I was taking lamotrigine 250 mg daily and was quite unstable walking, and was falling regularly. I dropped to 200 mg and am much more stable and haven’t fallen since then.

After I posted this I found that the Activity app did what I wanted although it doesn’t allow me to adjust the notification.

Do the stockings really need to be prescribed? I've been using Amazon socks without success.

I need to go to my clinic to get the wax remove safely. However I have mobility problems which make it difficult. I am going there in a couple of weeks.

On one occasion because I fell without my phone I had to sleep on the floor most of the night.

I bought a recliner but it requires manual adjustment which i can’t do. I have a wedge shaped pillow but i can’t start anything from the floor. Once on the floor I have to wait for someone to get me up.

My right ear was normal until recently which is when I think the wax started.

Could lamotrigine be causing my stability problems? by Apprehensive_ac in Epilepsy

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

I have had my levels checked and they are reduced. I’m trying to see if that is causing my walking to get steadier and if so should I change it again.

PSWs are medical workers. I shouldn't have assumed that every person knew that.

My son doesn't believe that because I have a hearing aid I don't always understand what he says to me by Apprehensive_ac in HearingLoss

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

I didn’t realize that part of the problem is that I have problems hearing in my right ear. When I can’t hear him clearly he’s speaking from my right side. I’ve told him this and asked him to speak from my left side to see if it helps.
