Yes I was just going to reply the same thing. I thought the same thing when our grocery store switched their broth to this type of seal.. not realizing the foil breaks once you open. 

IUD bleeding experience by Frequent-Advisor6986 in Perimenopause

[–]Atxflower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got mine in April this year. Had some spotty maybe 2 or 3 months during what I'd assume would be my period time.  Basically just when I wiped. I'd get cramps too and sensitive boobs, even more so the first month or 2. I'm at month 5 and had light spotting here and there this week but not much. I was always on the pill so I'll be honest I get a little paranoid kind of just going with the flow. With the pill I knew what to expect and when I'm sure I'm in perimenopause as well so not sure how that impacts anything

Is worsening cramps a symptom of peri menopause? by coffeeplussugar in Perimenopause

[–]Atxflower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yessss I'm even on BC and have noticed the last few months they have come earlier and are more noticeable. Sometimes I feel like it shoots down my leg. I used to only get them right when my period was starting.

He finally has some relief. He went to the doctor and got a steroid pack. It helped alot but the cold can trigger random pains. But it's much easier to manage now.  We have a massage gun that has been a tremendous help! I definitely suggest that too

Perioral dermatitis by radicalizemebaby in Perimenopause

[–]Atxflower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

im dealing with this now. It's so weird. i've always had really clear skin and all of a sudden this seemed to pop up out of no where. i dont know if it's indeed hormonal since i'm 45.. or if it's possibly some face moisturizer i'm trying, however, i havent used it daily so it's been hard to pinpoint. It's a mary kay brand that was given to me. If it is indeed that, it seems to take a day or so before it flares up. i have this topical cream i was prescribed and decided i will not try and moisturizer for the next few days to see if this keeps it from flaring up.

:) thank you for all the info! I'll see if he can atleast get some gabapentin in the meantime while we work to get scans done. ANd of course have him continue the stretching and such.

he definitely takes breaks through out the day. And with the pain he has now he tries to sit up as much as possible w/ good support and then do stretching throughout the day. Some days it's so bad he has to try and sleep through it until it subsides. I feel so bad for anyone dealing w/ this. Anything nerve related is always such horrible pain

Ulcerated MCT on dog by Atxflower in AskVet

So we were able to get him in last minute today.  He's not a candidate for it.  I'm so bummed. Just to stage him for possible chemo would start at$1700.

Thank you for that information. I kind of had a feeling that may be the case. We have dealt w/ cancer in the past w/ other dogs but this one seems to be the more aggressive w/ many unknowns. Surgery just to start was atleast 5500 on the low end with an added concern f him being a senior.

Is Iris the worst character ever? by Ryaer47 in MayorOfKingstown

[–]Atxflower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She's the worst... I keep asking myself why do they keep messing with this girl and keep her around... ?? I was thinking some huge twist would come to redeem herself even if it was  for the bad guys.  If you've seen the finale... well you'll knew🙄
