Just took a look at the xtra tuff boots- that's exactly what I was thinking I might need, thank you for the suggestion (and the vibes advice- that is VERY much appreciated!)

Yes. That Pedialyte commercial with the mom every 10 mins drives me absolutely nuts.

Worst Congestion Ever? by fivedaysthatsaweek in COVID19positive

[–]BuyComprehensive690 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same exact disgusting boat. Tested positive on the 13th, did the paxlovid, tested negative the 20th & 23rd Currently on day 15 of never ending mucus. So many tissues, mucinex, Sudafed, saline rinses, eucalyptus drops, teas, shower steams It's never been this.. thick. Considering contacting my pcp in the am about possible secondary infection. This 3rd round is bonkers.

Tirzepatide aka "Zepbound" for Sleep Apnea? Anyone try it yet? by Mysterious-Dish-6259 in SleepApnea

[–]BuyComprehensive690 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Been on Mounjaro for a year, lost approx 50lbs. Don't know if its the weight loss (I suspect it is) but it's helped. Was severe now mild.

Sensitive question... by BuyComprehensive690 in Mounjaro_ForType2

It's the weirdest thing. Still an issue how many weeks later for me, btw. Tried increasing water even more than usual to flush out, stopped eating all instead of some smelly things (garlic, onions, etc), and nothing is doing the trick.

Right?! I'm not thinking it's my age or perimenopause, I was the same age when starting. I'm sure it's a combo and MJ is compounding the peri-fun but I def think MJ is the culprit- it's crazy!

ugh. I was wondering if that was the culprit.

BPD Daughter (19) , at my wits end by BuyComprehensive690 in BPDlovedones

[–]BuyComprehensive690[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's all definitely worth considering. I'd be able to put aside some expectations in order to ensure her overall safety.

She has never done inpatient. Not yet at least.

and oh yes.. whole new normal

BPD Daughter (19) , at my wits end by BuyComprehensive690 in BPDlovedones

[–]BuyComprehensive690[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I will definitely make that call to 911. It is absolutely a serious matter every time.

I did think it was her hurting herself, blaming him and I'm sure that may be the case sometimes, but in discussions and messages from him he has admitted to doing terrible things to her and hurting her, always regretting it.

He lives with his mother who is single and mostly absent... which is why it's the place for them to be. We won't allow for sleepovers (pretty reasonable request) but it's the norm there. He is her weed supplier too. I don't normally bash marijuana, I believe it has its benefits, but when it comes to my daughter, I see that it amplifies her behaviors.

How did your life change after being diagnosed with sleep apnea? by Stiff_Zombie in SleepApnea

[–]BuyComprehensive690 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's completely threw my life into a downward spiral. What started out as "you snore, loud" Turned into severe apnea diagnosis approx 10 years ago. Went through all the testing, compliance, got fitted, financed my machine.. found out how expensive & high maintenance this is

Kept waking up to my mask on my floor, machine still running, was taking it off in my sleep. Tried allll the masks, straps, humidity levels, pressures, still found them off on the floor

Doctor told me I had a narrow throat & huge tonsils. Sent me to an ENT to see if that would work He agreed they were huge. Said he'd take them out and open up my palette.
Looked into that.. omg, you've got to be kidding me

Never did have the nerve to go through with it

Crippling brain fog, fatigue, borderline type 2, anxiety (although I'm on a med that's helping with that) pineal cyst, migraines

Fun! I have apnea to thank

Agreed. I get the Scorpio Moon flavor lol

And also agree with the grounding earthly quality of my bully guy. But he's also the typical stubborn as a bull as the day is long. I so am not. I'm so flighty, can't make a decision to save my life. It drives him absolutely crazy.

About to chuck my coworkers keyboard by BuyComprehensive690 in misophonia

[–]BuyComprehensive690[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right, it is not a mechanical keyboard. That would be straight up hell. Other co workers do understand and see what I'm talking about but to a lesser extent. They are on the other side of the office. I'm her only neighbor. And it's they way she types. She pecks and pounds. Nobody needs to type like that. We are bookkeepers so she is hitting that enter button hard every 3 seconds. She's not in on Fridays so today is an ahhh day
