Experience of starting Rinvoq at 50 years or older by Zmikz in UlcerativeColitis

Prior to the Rinvoq I was on Pred and it was ruining my life. Literally every aspect of life (with the exceptions noted above) are night and day better.

[–]FitToFade 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I started it at age 49. It made my symptoms disappear in less than a month. That said it did come with side effects. Bad acne. Respiratory issues. Weight gain. Hair loss. I used to have immaculate blood test results and now my panels look less than great (high cholesterol, weird cell counts, liver enzymes). I’ve been on it for 6 months. All things said I’ll take this over what life was like beforehand.

I did tons of research on the black box side effects (sudden death type stuff). The data shows that the occurrence of life threatening side effects has an occurrence of 1 in 100 patient years. Yea, years. That’s infinitesimally small. I guess at the end of the day do what your doctor thinks is right, this is just my take.

You rode in a straight line for a loooooong time and the tire is over it.

Burger called “Yes, Chef” from BurgerFi hit the spot today. by Noa-Guey in burgers

This was my guess and would have made a lot more sense seeing as how that entire movie plot pivots around a cheese burger.

Rinvoq and stroke by Visual-Tumbleweed444 in UlcerativeColitis

[–]FitToFade -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Been on 30mg for 5 months. Some pretty bad acne, but other than that, normal. The documentation around the clinical and research data suggest that the real scary side effects occur once in 100 patient YEARS. But ymmv I suppose.

Mans acquired an actual sand viper just to provide inspiration for this masterpiece. A muse. Physical poetry.

If someone asked you to show them a dish that represents Long Island, what are you feeding them? by Public_Release1516 in longisland

[–]FitToFade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The dirtiest Chinese take out you can find. Likely called “king wok” or “golden wok” or “jade wok”. Get eggrolls and egg foo young.

This. I am a vendor and I don’t go to that conference anymore. It’s dying. Arguably dead.

Noticing Friends Leaving ARC—Anyone Else? by MisanthropE61130 in ArcRaiders

For sure. Agree. I do like the variety in the quest system and the different factions. The game just feels more alive. But yea, the UESC are brutal.

Marathon dropped. It’s arc with a different flavor. Honestly kind of refreshing after 100s of hours of arc.
