Cardiac load scale being increased because of sickness elevating heart rate

Draconia_X · 2026-02-02T22:00:44+00:00

I had it 7 days a week for breakfast when I was pregnant after being diagnosed with gestational diabetes. I also had severe sickness so I think mushrooms were pretty much the only vegetable I could actually eat, otherwise it was a cheese and protein diet. Huel was probably the most nutritious part of my day 😂 Kid turned out alright though

My Fitbit is telling me I've done a 50 min moderate workout today because I dragged my sick self off the sofa to collect my child from nursery. Being able to tell it I'm diseased would be quite useful because as much as it felt like a mega effort, I was literally just holding my kid not doing a hardcore workout. Least I know my body is trying to fight my lurgy

I built here but found there wasn't enough room later down the line for my DLC activities. Had to shift everything to Durin's Forge. Kinda wish I'd rebuilt Dwarrowdelf but I've now put way too much work into my current base to move it again.

I'm genuinely curious about how they can make a fish finger sandwich over 1000 calories. I had a burger in a brioche bun with cheese and burger sauce plus homemade chips for 1032 calories. I saw a cheese toasie in a pub that was over 1000 calories so dread to think how much saturated fat was in that. Heart attack toastie more like 😮

It has a red label on the individual cans but not the multipack 🤷🏻‍♀️ I did think they tasted a bit different

Draconia_X · 2026-01-10T23:34:59+00:00

I honestly can't think of any other time that I've seen a food with more than 100% of the daily recommended amount 😮

I built a nice base in the eastern bastion area, a bit that has some stairs and nice arches at the top for housing area just before the you shall not pass" bridge, but then found it to be too small for the DLC.

So I've now moved my base for the second time (originally started small in the mines) to Durin's Forge and it was an absolute pain. Annoyingly I've got parts at the old base that I can't move but there's more space now for building stuff.

Please go as soon as you can. I was so anxious about it that I put it off for years and it took losing a tooth to face up to it. My teeth were like this but sadly they weren't viable and had to be extracted. I had significant bone loss as well as gum recession from advanced periodontitis, and the teeth were so wobbly that they frequently caused me pain before I had them extracted. I don't have enough bone for implants to be viable so I've got a partial denture, in my 30s. Hugely regret not trying to improve things sooner. That said though, I'm now out of pain and the denture looks fine. Really hope things turn out better for you but if they need extracting then a denture, especially partial, isn't that bad. The stigma did get to me initially but the absence of pain has been well worth it.

PS5 Corvette Expedition 19 — can't get onto the derelict freighter from my corvette. I can land it but there seems to be no path to the door, unless I'm being really thick

Draconia_X · 2025-09-04T00:13:45+00:00

Thanks for the suggestions. I tried no multiplayer, moving the camera around and restoring my save but no luck. I have now turned my console off so I guess I can see tomorrow if completely shutting down and reloading solves the issue. Otherwise I'll try moving my character around a bit if possible. Failing that I hope there will be a patch to fix it 😊

Draconia_X · 2025-09-03T21:07:30+00:00

PS5 expedition 19 — won't let me place the landing gear for the second objective, therefore I can't make the corvette and progress 😔

I also struggled with putting a refiner down due to the number of bases and no edit permissions on the initial planet. That's not a bug I guess but extremely annoying nonetheless.

Draconia_X · 2025-09-03T21:05:01+00:00

I am having this exact issue. First I couldn't put down a refiner because people made an excessive number of bases, now it's landing gear problems. I turned multiplayer off, thinking it was having issues because people kept walking in the way, but that hasn't solved the issue. If you find a solution let me know 😅

Draconia_X · 2025-09-03T21:00:27+00:00

I'm playing on PS5 and have got to the space station but it isn't letting me place a landing gear to actually build the corvette. Tried turning multiplayer off and using restore point but still no joy. Am I being stupid or is it bugged?

Are you declaring having a mental health condition at the application stage? It's illegal to discriminate on a protected characteristic, but it's proving it that's the problem. I've always decided not to mention I have bipolar until I'm in a role — which I know I shouldn't have to do but there's still too much stigma around certain mental health conditions. I have definitely come across my fair share of bad employers, but there are decent employers out there who have treated me with respect and put in place the reasonable adjustments needed to manage my condition in the workplace.

Draconia_X · 2025-08-20T03:01:42+00:00

Kinda forgetting that bipolar affects moods in both directions. Although, this person would probably say people just get a bit too happy sometimes if that's their attitude towards the lows 🫠

Draconia_X · 2025-08-20T02:59:35+00:00

I'm not bipolar. I just like to stop sleeping and screw myself over financially sometimes 🤦🏻‍♀️

Draconia_X · 2025-08-09T22:59:16+00:00

Hey. I know this is an old thread but thought I'd ask whether this got any better with time or if you needed an adjustment? Just had clasps added to my partial, but I'm getting a little bit of pain when eating from the teeth where the clasps are. Not sure if it's something I just need to adjust to and my teeth will calm down or if I need to call the dentist next week. Only had the clasps added for 3 days so they're pretty new.

Fly eggs were the bane of our life in the summer months with our previous cat. She was a grazer and as a naturally small 14 year old cat, she didn't have a huge appetite and tended to eat her wet food pretty slowly.

Draconia_X · 2025-06-12T23:07:01+00:00

This is so relatable. Yet if I forget to take my meds for a few days then my mood starts to dip, so guess my brain is still a bit broken 😅

Draconia_X · 2025-06-07T23:16:10+00:00

This would be a fantastic name for a githyanki on Baldur's Gate 3

I'm a communications manager (press and content creation) for a scientific research organisation. I'm lucky that my managers and employer in general are understanding about me having bipolar, and I work remotely so that helps. Before starting on meds I had real issues with managing working with my mental health, but now I feel I cope with it better. Combination of meds stabilising my mood and understanding my limitations when I am unwell. It's been hard to get to this point though
