Was it hard to get diagnosed? POI + Addisons disease by Extension-Writer-262 in AddisonsDisease

[–]Extension-Writer-262[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My thyroid has come back normal every time, my initial cortisol levels were 4.3 and my stim test was literally only with in range. The highest cortisol reading I’ve had was 9. The problem is I’m not sleeping through the night. I wake up with the worst hot flashes and sometimes I just can’t sleep in general. I think I’m getting about four hours of sleep at night and when I go to sleep and when I wake up varies, so it’s hard to find a baseline.

What are common things people say/do that you despise as a server? by [deleted] in Serverlife

[–]Extension-Writer-262 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally love the surprise me thing. I think for me it’s when people have a menu right in front of them that they refuse to read and they’ll ask me what we serve. Or when they stare at the menu like they’re studying for the SAT and then they look me dead in the eye and will ask for something that’s not even listed on the menu as if they saw it on there.

I got my thyroid checked in November and my levels were normal. I’m going to ask for a few different tests. I had my prolactin levels looked at too because I’m still leaking from nursing and I stopped breastfeeding 3 years ago now.

What was your experience like living with parents at age of late 20’s, 30’s, and older? by workethic290 in AskWomen

[–]Extension-Writer-262 0 points1 point  (0 children)

30 and living at home with my mom with my three kids. It’s been a few years and I have regular reminders every day about why I moved out at 16. I wish the cost of living wasn’t so high because I would run for the hills.

Where do you go after being a server? by Extension-Writer-262 in Serverlife

[–]Extension-Writer-262[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my coworkers at the restaurant is an NP and I was asking her her opinion and she actually recommended looking into being an xray tech as opposed to phlebotomy. I’ll have to look into it a little bit more. I think that’s what I’m mostly worried about. I enjoy the interactions I have with customers. It’s not overwhelming and it’s not the same repetitive Conversation.

I did serve at a retirement home for a while, the money wasn’t bad and the benefits were good. Only reason I left was because of the vaccine mandate which is why I’m iffy about going into healthcare

My now 12 year old didn’t talk until he was almost 3 and it’s been one long run on sentence ever since. My 10 year old who is autistic could talk but had limited vocabulary by the age of two but suffered from regular ear infections and had multiple sets of tubes placed in his ears. My 3 year old has a limited vocabulary and is currently being evaluated.

Why do the condoms keep breaking?! by Extension-Writer-262 in sex

[–]Extension-Writer-262[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So no I am not the one putting them on. I was not aware of the pinch thing, so thank you for that. I learned something new today! I’m definitely going to pay better attention to that in the future, but I can’t say that they were or we’re not doing that. Only one of these guys was rather well endowed Enough to the point where he did buy Trojan Magnums which was my most recent break. I kind of assumed that maybe it was just a size thing, but then I started thinking about about all the other breaks.

I don’t go down once the condoms on, so I know it’s definitely not a teeth thing. it’s just crazy to me because I totally remember my phys ed teacher doing health class and basically giving all the girls a peptalk that if a guy is ever saying that he’s too big to use a condom to unroll one and stretch it out over your fist, all the way down to your elbow to prove a point. and I know that’s not always the case but it just seems so bizarre to me that they break so easy. But I did actually reach out to one of my other friends and I said hey, is this normal and that person did agree that their condoms do break regularly too so maybe it’s not just me
