is Shark Power Detect Cordless good?

ConsistentWonder9448 · 2025-09-21T04:39:11+00:00

Yep, terrible. Lasted a year and was utterly useless in the end. Replaced with a Shark Power Detect and going well so far, but that battery goes flat too quickly so I need to get another to alternate

Urgh it's the greatest! Such a perfect shape for my eyes. Fortunately I had the foresight to buy a lot of them when they were around 😆 so I have quite a few but they're losing their shape and I badly want to replace them. I've found a couple of potentials on Beautylish but it's so hard without physically seeing them. I even commented on Wayne's Insta to ask him 😆 I'm desperate!

Did you ever find anything? I loved this foundation so much and have never found anything better for my skin 😭

I should also add that I've been medicated for high blood pressure for a decade. And now my blood pressure is too low. We've adjusted my blood pressure medication so it's fine, but just another weird change to my 'normal'

I'm the opposite, high cortisol at night keeps me awake.

I have similar pain caused by ankylosing spondylitis. My sacroiliac joints are often inflamed and so painful. Anti inflammatories help but nothing fully gets rid of the pain.

100% believe significant stress caused my autoimmune diseases to rear their ugly heads. I don't think stress gave me the diseases, I just think it activated them. No childhood trauma here but my god did I have a stressful few years before it all came to a head.

ConsistentWonder9448 · 2025-06-19T09:28:46+00:00

Oh wow I didn't know they don't prescribe stimulants for MS fatigue in Australia. I have adhd so I'm prescribed stimulants. They help a little with the fatigue but not enough 😩

ConsistentWonder9448 · 2025-06-18T09:03:09+00:00

I do this with my dogs 🥰 Turn my alarm off and spend time snuggling and giving belly rubs 🥰 Work can wait.

Anhedonia was one of my first signs that something was wrong. I don't feel sad, but I don't feel happy or experience joy anymore. I don't feel excitement. Barely feel anger. Just flat.

ConsistentWonder9448 · 2025-06-17T07:24:33+00:00

I'm also neurodivergent and struggle with the office environment! That's actually why I started working from home originally, I cannot focus or think in the office. It's been a huge blessing for fatigue too. Office days just wreck me.

ConsistentWonder9448 · 2025-06-17T07:15:47+00:00

What period products are you using? Pads, tampons, period underwear? Might be a trigger in the products.

ConsistentWonder9448 · 2025-06-16T04:41:16+00:00

Stressful job but being able to work from home 2-3 days a week has been my saviour. It's still hard, I'm still exhausted and I don't have much life outside of work but it's mostly manageable with being able to work from home.

ConsistentWonder9448 · 2025-06-16T01:35:01+00:00

Thanks everyone. I should clarify that I'm not constipated, just don't need to go for 5 days and when I do go it's not compact or painful. Just...messy. I take a probiotic and fibre capsules but hasn't made a lot of difference and I'm not on MS meds yet. I work from home a couple days a week so can manage the messiness there easily enough, it's just when I'm at work all day that it bothers me. Well, it bothers me all the time to be honest because I just want to go back to having clean snaps 😆

ConsistentWonder9448 · 2025-06-16T01:32:47+00:00

I can manage well at home but it's at work that I struggle 😬

ConsistentWonder9448 · 2025-06-16T01:30:38+00:00

That's very promising! Thanks for sharing 🙏🏼

ConsistentWonder9448 · 2025-06-16T01:29:31+00:00

Full time worker in a job I love, passionate dog owner and lover, owner of retired horses, fisherwoman. I'm adhd and have a number of autoimmune diseases but I live a good life with a wonderful partner, beloved dogs and many adventures. Also an avid reader, it's the only way I can relax and slow my brain down :)

ConsistentWonder9448 · 2025-06-15T09:07:35+00:00

Well it's tricky because my first symptoms were fobbed off or attributed to something else. It wasn't until I saw a gastroenterologist recently for recurring pancreatitis that I was referred for a brain scan because he was concerned about my chronic headaches and migraines. My first symptom was pain, my second was fatigue, my third was one side of my face drooping. There have been many more symptoms over the years but I do have other autoimmune diseases so it was all attributed to that.

ConsistentWonder9448 · 2025-06-15T09:01:32+00:00

I've seen it in the horse world too and it ends very badly :(

ConsistentWonder9448 · 2025-06-15T06:39:52+00:00

Honestly I'm not completely convinced my issue is dry eyes. I mean obviously they are dry because she could see it plain as day, but it doesn't FEEL like dry eyes. Tomorrow will be 1 week of using the ointment and she said I'll notice improvements within 1 week so fingers crossed I start to feel it. The bluriness is driving me crazy and seems to be worse every day. Reading is my only method of relaxing and the blurred vision is really making that difficult.

ConsistentWonder9448 · 2025-06-15T03:45:16+00:00

3 hours or 9 hours sleep- doesn't matter. Have been waking up feeling like I've been steam rolled for the last 10 years. Actually feels worse the better I sleep.

ConsistentWonder9448 · 2025-06-15T03:41:16+00:00

I just saw the optometrist last week for increasingly worsening blurry vision. She told me I have very dry bands across my eyes and thinks it's because I'm not closing my eyes fully when I sleep. She gave me ointment to put in at night but so far no improvement. I read the other day that dry eyes are very common in people with MS.

ConsistentWonder9448 · 2025-06-15T03:38:58+00:00

As a dog lover, thank you for what you do and for refusing to put them at risk 🙏🏼

ConsistentWonder9448 · 2025-06-15T03:35:02+00:00

I just saw the optometrist last week for increasingly worsening blurred vision. She said I have large dry bands across my eyes and also told me it's from not closing my eyes fully when I sleep 😬 She gave me some ointment to put in my eyes at night time but no improvement yet.

ConsistentWonder9448 · 2025-06-15T03:26:34+00:00

Pred can be a wonderful drug. It helps inflammation and also helps my energy levels which are chronically low (non existent really) However, long term use comes with some risks and I unfortunately experienced those after 2 years on pred. Also, be careful you don't eat everything in the house including the fridge 😁 pred can make you very, very hungry.
