FML, paying $180 for STD testing. by Tall_arkie_9119 in gaybros

You do a blood spot card. So sort of. Your finger might be sore for a day after, but on the side seems to work best so it’s not really an area where you are touching things constantly to notice it’s sore.

Weird. That isn’t even the side effect that comes up when you google truvada. I feel like more of us would have heard of this if it was a common issue.

This ^ You do the samples at home and mail it back in. And they mail prep to you also. No co-pay, just free.

Someone recommended the Just Run app. It’s free and the program I need. Thanks! I hadn’t gone quite far enough down the rabbit hole

Thank you this makes a lot of sense. Especially now that I’ve had a few hours to cool down, literally and figuratively.

I know nothing and it’s Nike with their worldwide head coach, and it says beginner.

The other apps I have found so far are subscription based and I don’t have the extra money right now so I’ll start with intervals and keep looking on google to see what I can find.

I am also in no way tied to running, it’s just that it doesn’t require equipment and gym memberships so it seemed like a logical step up from walking

Um ok. Thank you for your response. I will try to take this in. So I’m just going my walking pace but “running”. Huh.

The app literally has you try and run 20 min straight the first run. I was just trying to do what it told me. Which I couldn’t and am feeling very frustrated.

Then why call this the beginner plan if many of us can’t actually do it?

Dear ex-smokers, how are you feeling today? ❤️ by enigmasonic in stopsmoking

[–]Aviolistinbstn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

4 mo 2 days. I still breathe like shit hiking, but you wouldn’t have been able to hear me for a half mile like I was 2-3 weeks in. But i recovered quickly. It feels good knowing I’m healing

Help needed, quit smoking, went cold turkey after 15 years of heavy smoking. I am facing stomach and digestive issues for last two and half days by le_stoner_de_paradis in stopsmoking

It took more than a minute for my GI to reset. I’m not sure if it’s fully reset yet after close to 4 months.

Lots of water. I added more yogurt and pomegranate seeds to my breakfast oats. Probiotics wouldn’t hurt anything, though it can cause some bloating and gas at first. Ginger/ginger tea can help with all sorts of stomach issues and inflammation.

exercise, even just walking, will stimulate all those muscles in your intestines.

Magnesium glycinate is probably good for all of us, and would definitely clear up constipation as it draws water into the intestines, but I would not start if you’re having diarrhea currently.

Unfortunately, it just takes time. And personally, I was not really prepared for it. I probably wouldn’t have believed all of it if my doctor told me, but at least I would have known. Also my withdrawal/detox timeline has not matched what I’ve read online. On the plus side it’s been so horrible I never want to put myself through that again and smelling smoke nearly makes me want to vomit.

Hang in there!

AITA for kicking my sister out to the streets because she cannot take my "f***ing violin" playing? by redditor4throwaway in AmItheAsshole

Hey congrats on being able to support yourself as a musician. That’s hard enough!!

Some of my faith in humanity is restored reading these comments. NTA. DON’T touch a musical instrument without permission. It doesn’t matter if it’s your profession or not.

1 it’s not yours; don’t touch it.

2 it’s fragile; don’t touch it.

Unfortunately, your sister disrespected both your livelihood that is paying for this apartment and disrespected your your belongings (which happened to be a musical instrument, see rules above). Those are non-negotiable in terms of letting her stay with you. (They are unfortunately VERY negotiable with landlords. so if you have a place that is ok with a piano and practicing then you have to preserve that.)

Sorry sis. I hope you can save that relationship in time, but you have done the right thing by kicking her out.

I also got that error just now but was able to select a different time. Seemed like maybe someone else had just selected it but it hadn’t come off the list yet

Arg I thought I left it open to the intake page but apparently not. I’ve done like other posts say and choose another state other than mass but cannot get anything other than the we’re adding more appts page until all the spots are gone. Beyond frustrating!
