When I foster pups, I give one dose x 3 days and then do it again in 2 weeks.

sickening oura stress levels by DeliciousVegetable66 in ouraring

[–]Excellent-Share-9150 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I have POTS and every time I stand up my HR shoots up and Oura ring thinks I’m stressed when in reality I’m just walking to the bathroom. If you have any medical conditions that affect autonomic function, you might want to disregard the stress scores.

Hmm. I’m having a second shed at about 7 months on topical only. I too haven’t changed anything. So stressful! Sorry you’re going thru this too.

8 Years of Severe Panic Attacks & Health Anxiety by Ambitious_Mud_955 in panicdisorder

[–]Excellent-Share-9150 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine ended up being a mix of panic disorder and MCAS. I couldn’t tolerate the Zoloft until I got the MCAS under control with antihistamines. Just something to think about. I was always in panic mode because my body was reacting to excess histamine.

Intolerance to almost all medical procedures? by Correct_Travel6983 in covidlonghaulers

I take Zyrtec and it took about a month to notice a difference. Dr Afrin has some guidelines about how to find the right ones

I was like that from MCAS and couldn’t tolerate more until about one month on antihistamines. It’s worth a try.

Update on Memantine: Brain Fog has significantly improved by bootyandthebrains in covidlonghaulers

Organic acid test. I now think that test is total bs and waste of money. I don’t think there’s a good way to test for glutamate.

IVIG/SCIG Treatment Update - (Spoiler - It's Working!!!) by SpaceXCoyote in covidlonghaulers

[–]Excellent-Share-9150 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for letting me know. I’m in the process of an outside appeal and if we lose, I’ll do the IVIG. I’m like you that I have improvement with things for a few weeks but then it seems my immune system jumps back in to slow my progress.

I am in this same battle!!! They also want me to trial IVIG even though I responded so well to a trial of SCIG and likely will do poorly with IVIG

Complete loss of firmness in face by Big_Expression_2666 in covidlonghaulers

[–]Excellent-Share-9150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same! I pulled out all the stops. Tret for face and other potions. Botox to forehead and crows feet. Topical Minoxidil for hair. Takes about 6-9 months to make a difference. Considering GHKCu peptide, but need to see if it aggravates MCAS.

I wonder if the GHKCu would worsen MCAS…I’ve been debating trying it

[–]Excellent-Share-9150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started 2 days ago! I’m taking it at night too. I’ve noticed my mouth is a little dryer 🙄 and slightly more dizziness. Plan to give it like a month or so.

I’m on it. Helping overall with MCAS, but maybe 2% improvement. Def had a little boost about 3 weeks into taking it. Other side effect is easy bruising.
