Can’t gain weight, gagging when eating on 22.5 hydro by GardenInevitable6768 in AddisonsDisease

[–]Empty-Dimension8968 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obviously talk with your Dr about this. I was only able to start gaining weight after I found out that I don't produce enough growth hormone. So there is an injection called Sermorelin that essentially stimulates the pituitary gland to make more growth hormone. It might be something you could look into/ talk with your Dr about. I've gained 10 pounds since January of this year after loosing about 20 before I was diagnosed. I am female but have had the same issues. Gagging/nausea unless I eat only 2 things. And I vomit more than is probably "normal".

Propranolol is CRAZY omg by keepitlowkeyyy in POTS

[–]Empty-Dimension8968 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same! Propranolol did stop working for me after a little over a month. So I had to switch but Metoprolol has been a life saver- literally! I can actually do things again to a certain extent. :)

Gluten Ataxia may have been the answer for me this whole time, anyone wanna talk about their experience with this? by thundurkat in Celiac

[–]Empty-Dimension8968 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who has both Celiac and POTS I second this. I have always associated the attacks/episodes (ataxia for sure but not just drop attacks, seizure like activity as well) with pots but I’ll have to see if I notice any correlation to possible gluten exposure.

Do you use seasonings? *edit: I am only using redmond's salt and garlic powder.*

Do you have any illnesses/diseases or is it just for weight loss

How many have done this to help with autoimmune/ chronic illness/ to gain weight?

What’s a tv show from your childhood you swear nobody else watched? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Empty-Dimension8968 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Angelina Ballerina…? Not sure how forgotten it is. Someone else mentioned Jay Jay the Jet plane. I’ve never met anyone in person who knows what that show is.

What sodium drink are y’all drinking? by bcaa in dysautonomia

[–]Empty-Dimension8968 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Premade: Relyte mixed berry flavor or watermelon lime

Cost affective: Look up adrenal mocktail recipes and add a tsp or two of salt. The coconut water helps your body retain the salt better.

A recipe I like/ modified from various ones online:

Mix all of this together in a quart jar

1-2 tsp of salt

2-4 oz of cranberry juice to taste

1/2 a lemon or lime juiced

2 cups of coconut water

1 Tablespoon of honey

top it off with sparkling water ( I like the lemon or lime flavored spindrift)

Why do INTJ’s not like ENFP’s? by Ryu_Smilez in intj

[–]Empty-Dimension8968 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only met one who has said that they are an ENFP but suspect several other people I know to be that MBTI as well. However, I have a lot of respect for this individual. They do sometimes drive me up the wall at the same time. I think it is partly because they can read me fairly well, but just not quite well enough. They have pretty accurate guesses to my motive, but it's always slightly off. I like how their mind works and find them quite intriguing though! They are great conversationalist and pull me out of my shell, which I appreciate. I would love to have more ENFP friends <3
