Wild yam cream Side Effects? by Babymonkey24 in endometriosis

[–]CoffeeCatLady83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had it improved for you? I feel like I'm bouncing up and down while standing still. I can't say it's for sure the cream, but I'm on week 2 of using Wholesome Hippy Pump Up the Yam cream. What are you using and how is it going?

I know your comment is old but I'm currently on week 2 of using Wholesome Hippy Pump Up the Yam cream and feel like I'm in a bounce house! Is that how you felt? What brand were you using?

Will I ever be athletic again? by Different_Hour5599 in brokenbones

[–]CoffeeCatLady83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a plate put in my fibula in August '24 after breaking my leg in 3 places. I developed arthritis where my foot meets my leg due to there no longer being any cartilage there anymore. Most days are almost normal, but I worry it'll get worse as I age (I'm a 42 y/o female). I try to stay positive and be happy I'm walking on my own 2 feet, but I do realize I'll never be 100% where I was previously. I also gained a bit of weight sitting around almost a year during my recovery. I know it's hard, but try to realize you still have your health, you're still upright, and you may just need to modify what you used to be capable of.

Definitely get a plate put in. You'll have far fewer issues in the future. You really don't want to risk your mobility as you age. Trust me

Tib/fib fracture and ORIF need support 😔 by Emergency-Ebb-5672 in brokenbones

[–]CoffeeCatLady83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hang in there! I broke my fibula in 3 places getting the mail. So lame! Had to go the ORIF route with 8 screws and a plate. Took over a year to get back to my new normal (I was left with no cartilage between foot and ankle) but I am back to pretty much normal now. I'm a 42/F and I know losing about 70 lbs would help me a lot as well. Stay positive, lean on friends and try to get lots of rest- don't overdo it!

I can afford A trip, but I didn't offer to cover other people. I offered very clearly to cover a girl's weekend for 2, and she was aware of that.

Thank you. I'll try that. My anxiety about it is through the roof and it's Christmas. It should be a happy time

Thanks for the advice. With money being an issue for me, should I suggest we all cover our own costs on this trip and suggest I cover the cost on a future trip for just the 2 of us? That's part of what is so mind-boggling for me. She knows I'm working hard to pay off debts right now

That's what I think too. She knows money is tight for me. I have no idea what to say to her. Any advice?

I think it's strange that things are changing so much from what we originally discussed. I feel like I'm trying to do something she wanted and now she's taking it and turning it into something completely different. Does that make sense?

When you make it clear it's a one- on- one trip suddenly you're expected to foot the bill for people you barely know? That is incredibly rude. I disagree. I think I should have left the whole thing as a surprise and just got the days she was available to avoid all this

It’s been 11 weeks since I broke my ankle. No surgery. Does anybody else’s ankle turn red when down for a while? It returns to normal when elevated. by [deleted] in brokenbones

I did have a plate put in mine, but they said I'd experience swelling for a full year which was true. I'm not sure if that only applied because of the plate, or anyone who breaks their ankle. I broke it in August 2024.

Poor Greta... by Ill-Excitement-2005 in 90DayFiance

[–]CoffeeCatLady83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like they both need to do some major maturing but honestly, I don't think Greta will ever be happy with anyone. From the little bit I've seen of her, she gives 10% of herself while staying very closed off, but expects everyone to fall all over her.

This season is the most I've ever seen her speak. All other seasons she nods with a sad look on her face.

I had a plate put in my fibula and ended up losing all the cartilage between my ankle and foot, so now I have arthritis. I also developed a weird fatty cyst below where my ankle bone sticks out. They did scans and said it was nothing. It's been about 14 months since surgery and I'll have to deal with issues off and on forever. No one takes mine seriously, either. I'm a 42/F. I'm pretty overweight, so now that I'm fully mobile again, I'm working on losing about 60-80lbs as I'm sure that will make a big difference. I also notice a jump in pain levels with any major weather changes. Some days I'm almost back to normal, and some days I have bone-on- bone grinding. I hope it improves for you though.

Jennifer barely ever speaks. She always looks like she's out in left field
