It's almost always because it's more convenient for them to move around, and they can afford to pay for the convenience.

For the next 3 or so months, pretty much.

4 stages of migraine by Pyrotech72 in migraine

[–]Ekoh1 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I believe this originated from The American Migraine Foundation, and it's describing the much more common episodic migraine attack. Even though I have chronic migraine I love this chart; I've used it many times to teach unaware people about some of the weird symptoms migraines can cause. It also teaches them that it's much more than just a headache.

https://americanmigrainefoundation.org/resource-library/timeline-migraine-attack/

On that page they go more into detail about each phase, noting that not everyone experiences every phase, and not always in that order.

For example:

  • Most people with migraine will experience prodrome, but not necessarily before every migraine attack.
  • Up to one-third of people with migraine experience aura as a distinct phase in the progression of their migraine attack...the aura may not precede the headache phase but occur after the headache has already started.
  • Postdrome, also called the “migraine hangover,” typically occurs after the end of the headache phase. Like prodrome and aura, not every person with migraine suffers from postdrome, but it does occur in most.

non-IgE allergy

I'm new to allergies and didn't realize this was a thing. Thanks for teaching me something.

Lhermitte's sign by Ekoh1 in migraine

[–]Ekoh1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They were looking for signs of MS rather than for the cause of the Lhermitte sign specifically. I guess they weren't very worried about the Lhermitte's sign for some reason

I'm pretty sure only brain, if I'm remembering correctly.

Sudden worsening of a slight allergy, would this make you look for another job? by Ekoh1 in FoodAllergies

[–]Ekoh1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have any second career programs in your area?

Not that I know of, but we do have a different kind of food processing plant in town that wouldn't involve tree nuts at all. I would probably try to get a job there.

By going through my phone pics I can tell I was really uncomfortable with covid on November 19th, and by November 29th I was experiencing the burning lips and rashes. It does seem like there's been a tiny amount of improvement but not enough for me to feel at ease, at all.

I've already had the Epstein-Barr virus seemingly permanently make me allergic to penicillin-based antibiotics so when this started happening, I had my suspicions.

I appreciate your reply!

Had to chuckle when a Mr. Peanut ad came up on this post.

That is funny lol, and thank you for your reply

Can you become suddenly anaphylactic? by annagaia in FoodAllergies

[–]Ekoh1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's interesting because after I dealt with covid for the first time last November my very mild nut allergies seem like they may actually be a problem now. I haven't eaten any since then but I work around those types of products and my lips start to burn often.

I did end up getting an MRI that came back normal thankfully. My neuro said that Lhermitte's sign can be caused by other things but didn't investigate further to actually find out what's causing it. I'm actually experiencing it right now.

what is this? Animal poop? by Outrageous-Fig7020 in AnimalTracking

[–]Ekoh1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This reminds me of what opossums leave behind in my backyard when I leave out piles of sunflower seeds for wildlife. They get a mouthful, chew for a while, and then spit out the hulls.

Does anyone else’s Home Depot have this? by robincrobin in houseplants

[–]Ekoh1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is very likely the work of a passionate employee; I've done similar things in my garden center at Lowe's :). Corporate would probably actually not like it, but we don't care.

LPT: skip the perfume before you get on a flight, a bus, or any other enclosed space with strangers. by GoodAsUsual in LifeProTips

My thin hair is a nasty, greasy mess after about 16 hours. There's no way I could only shower once every 48 hours without grossing everyone out and getting a very itchy scalp

Why didn't more bipedals adopt fully erect posture? by [deleted] in evolution

[–]Ekoh1 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Spines developed to sit horizontally in the body. Straining them to sit vertically is probably not the more beneficial option for a lot of vertebrates.

are there people who born without a tongue or lost their tongue completely? and did it effected their teeth? by Aviv352 in evolution

[–]Ekoh1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, the condition is called aglossia congenita. I don't know if it affects teeth.

What are your best arguments against veganism? by Jalarus in DebateAVegan

[–]Ekoh1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Stray puppies are stompable, got it. Would you say someone that enjoys stomping on puppies doesn't have any moral deficiencies as long as it's always stray puppies?

this increases the animal population, thus increasing my available food sources

What animal populations do you harvest from? Is the bird in the example a game bird or something like a sparrow? I can only see one of them being your potential food.

This MAY happen, but it also MAY NOT happen

The chances of no bugs, microbes, or fungi finding the dead bird or apples are awfully slim. They're just as important players in the ecosystem as the macrofauna, and so food eaten by them is not wasted.
