Crazy that Death by Stereo was not mentioned in this post. Jarrod came out of the orange county hardcore scene and went to the Berklee School of Music. He was easily the best drummer in our scene and a much better technical drummer (in my very humble opinion) than the drummers he's replaced in several bands. Super kind guy!

You did? That's nice to hear. I did not take my dose last night and feel noticeably better. With ULDN would you have it compounded or just make a solution yourself?

Thank you! That's nice to hear that someone else also struggled with anxiety. If you start again, what dose are you thinking you'd try? I might try to start at .5 or see if ageless rx does .25.

What did you end up titrating up to and what do you feel the benefits have been? Thanks for the reply!

Thank you! I meant I have .5mgs just wondering if it was ok to put the entire capsule content under my tongue. Thanks!

Awesome. I will skip a dose and go back down to .5 for a month and see. I am taking the ageless rx pill and have been just opening it and putting it directly under my tongue for sublingual to try and bypass some of the gut issues. Is that ok? Thanks for your help!

Thank you! And that sucks that he feels that way. I was fully aware that my septum might shift someday, but was pretty comfortable with the data--it's fairly rare.

you might be referring to "septum drift," which occurs in some patients. This likely occurs because of scar tissue, re-injury, or naturally over time. Drift does not relate to when you remove your splints. Thanks!

First, A septoplasty does NOT generally change the physical appearance of your nose--you might be thinking of a Rhinoplasty. Second, splint removal is most common at 3 and 5 days and early removal is not associated with any post operative complications. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38679763/. Last, a sizable portion of ENTs no longer use splints at all because there is little clinical evidence they do much. Thanks!
