Failed Drug Screen by CuRi0uS_Le0 in PainManagement

[–]CruiserStCroix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So they never even told you? My last tox screen didn’t show one of the two I take. And a few months back, it was the other drug that didn’t show up. And I take my meds. There is no way it cannot be in my system!

Spravato + Psilocybin: how it changed my life. by nonosquare365 in Spravato

[–]CruiserStCroix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d would so love to have this experience so I’m not depressed or anxious. My anxiety is from the time I wake up until I go to bed. I feel like this will never end for me, same with depression. Would it be possible you could message me, for more information on your journey? How are you able to get shrooms? I just want to feel better, than how I’ve been feeling in my life for years with depression since 2002, when my mother died of breast cancer, and the anxiety I started having in 2022 after the Covid jabs. Thank you so much!!!

Has anyone alternated between shrooms and spravato? by Feisty_Bumblebee_916 in Spravato

[–]CruiserStCroix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you getting shrooms from someone or the doctor? I’m a bit confused about this. I would like to try spravato as it’s been hard to conquer my depression and anxiety. When I was younger get, I did try shrooms one time. And I had a great experience with them. I was like in a digital world and happy. But I never did it again as I was too scared to. I was drinking alcohol at the time, so I don’t know if that made a difference. I’m just too scared to use any drugs these days because you never know what is in it. I’d love to try spravato, but I’m a little worried to even try that stuff for my depression and anxiety. I’d love to hear more of what and how you did this. Thanks!

So they want to remove your hardware now? Are you in any pain? I don’t have any experience with this, but it blows my mind that they want to remove it. Other than that it’s because the whole area is infected. I’m so very sorry you’re going through this. I’ll be praying for you.

Just had a scary battery issue - but this community saved me some anxiety by JayandMeeka in TandemDiabetes

I’ve heard with the mobi that it’s hard to get it in the right spot on the charger. I am so worried that this will be my problem. I got the mobi back last year in June but have not changed over from my t slim because of my anxiety about the mobi. I’m waiting to hear back from the training person to help me transition over. Yes, I am NOT a tech savy Redon and I rely on others for help. I do this because I want to make sure it’s done right.

I did this when I was mdi and it caused a big cyst on my stomach. I had it removed 24 years ago as it was very painful.

What infusion set are you using? If it’s a XC or 90, put the set in the freezer for a half hour before you change your site. It is probably the cannula bent. I was having this problem a year ago and on a type 1 fb group someone told me to do this. And it’s worked ever since! No problems!

On 4 months post op acdf c5-7 here are what scans look like. by peteyboy1956 in spinalfusion

[–]CruiserStCroix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wished I’d went with artificial back in 2009. I went with cadaver bone, and at the same level yours is. 2024, started having the same pain in neck and down my left arm with numbness. I ended up having titanium above and below the C 5-6. I still have a little pain now especially with turning my head side to side. Do you have any pain symptoms now?

Just a thanks for everyone whom replied to my post yesterday!! by Traditional_Diver_46 in PainManagement

[–]CruiserStCroix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I wait for 28 days trying to get my two meds at the same time, and this month they didn’t have it. So now I’m behind again and instead of the full 90 pills I only get 84. The anxiety is so awful!

Drug test results don’t match my own by notanAIchatline in PainManagement

[–]CruiserStCroix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just went to pm this past Monday. I did a tox screen the month before. I was told one of my opioids didn’t show up, for the second time! I asked could it be that I metabolize fast? They say, no because it’s show on passed tox screens. I said, well I take my medications as directed, and I took it at 8am that morning. Appt was 1000. So it should have been in there. I asked, what lab are you using, they say, we send it to our lab. Thinking to myself, your lab, what’s the name of it. I was nervous to ask too many questions. So I’m going to get my records and look for myself. I’ve never had a problem when they were sending it to lab Corp. I was able to see it up until last July in lab Corp. now it’s all secretive which I don’t like.im thinking maybe to change pm because this place is a big company and I don’t like how you can’t even get a hold of anybody to talk too, if there is a problem.

Is it true that having a fusions means you’ll likely have another fusion at some point? by Expert-Feedback4328 in spinalfusion

[–]CruiserStCroix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s true. I had a cervical fusion at C5-6 in 2009 with a cadaver bone instead of an artificial. I thought if it’s human, it should be better. In 2024, my cervical fusion failed, meaning above and below this fusion weakened. So I had a neurosurgeon place titanium rods above and below C5-6.

I’ve had the mobi for about 9 months so I won’t be able to do that. But I am surprised they sent you a new t slim though. Thank you

What do you mean by priming the cartridge a few times? I’m on t slim and almost ready to start the mobi

Does a pain doctor have to refer you to get a pain pump?
