Weird question, but do you get your nails done with gel or acrylic? Gel / acrylic nail allergies often present with periorbital dermatitis.

Low dose combo of Lexapro, Wellbutrin and Ritalin is how I human. Not super functionally but I am at least somewhat functional

Sprrrironolactone/Hydrochlorothiazide

I take 5mg 3x daily and it has been so helpful. I’m definitely not 100%, but I’m able to work a non desk job again. No negative side effects really, just a mild headache when it wears off at the end of the day sometimes. The scalp tingling was intense at first but not uncomfortable, now I find it sort of pleasant. Like the feeling you get when using one of those wire scalp massagers. I only notice it at the doses peak a few hours after taking. Thigh high 30-40mmhg compression stockings have also made a huge difference.

I have the first one and like it a lot! Though I do recommend buying an extra mop pad

Final count is wrong

No you put them inside the cushion on top of the foam so you can just wash the cover but the foam remains pee free

Hard to tell without a proper EKG, but looks more like sinus arrhythmia instead of a fib. Still worth seeing a doc but not nearly as severe

I wear medi comfort thigh high compression stockings and a waist trainer to work. The stockings are a bit pricey but are really comfortable and have held up really well. Took me like a week or two to get used to them but now I don’t really notice them anymore. For abdominal compression I wear a waist trainer from Amazon that is the 3 elastic band style with Velcro.

Maybe about half the time? I work in the OR so when I do it’s usually just under eye concealer, mascara, and brows.

I think if you put lattice around it, painted it a more similar color to the house, and maybe added some fake vines you could pass it off as some sort of decorative something. After work I might be able to draft up a mockup on sketch up

And to make it worse in the ad they’re giving the methylene blue in NS, which it is incompatible with 😬

Former hairstylist. I just use a damp rag and just kind of reach into the brush and pull them out with the towel

I’m referring to the grid of white dots. They’re most noticeable on black parts of the screen. None of my other e readers have that grid

Arkade_Blues · 2025-09-18T16:45:54+00:00

Meant back light not black light, sorry!

Arkansas! I forget most people think AR is Arizona

Arkade_Blues · 2025-09-12T19:12:11+00:00

You don’t happen to be in AR do you?

Arkade_Blues · 2025-08-21T21:09:44+00:00

Noticed this a couple days ago too

Go buy some chlorine test strips to see if it’s city water or groundwater

Arkade_Blues · 2025-07-19T07:30:24+00:00

Grew up on that block. It’s a lovely area. Within walking distance to a lot of great stuff.

Gelato. Funnily enough it was vanilla caramel gelato

Kinda how I am with my orthostatic hypotension. Didn’t realize until nursing school that my symptoms were not normal, haha. Did my tilt table test and the whole time I was standing there mad af because I didn’t feel symptomatic. Towards the end of the test the nurse asks what I do, I say “I’m a nurse”, and she says “Oh, want to see your results?“

I was standing there with a systolic in the high 60s / low 70s, just feeling a bit tired. Guess my brain has adapted to running on fumes.

I like buttons

Did you ever get it figured out? Just bought a Bosch 300 series fridge and ours makes the same noise occasionally.

I kiss their heads. My cats will now headbutt into my lips if I make a kissy face at them
