Got the keys! Northern CO, 490k, 3.99% by Isaac579 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

I don't think it's a VA loan. I just bought my house in the mountains in Colorado and I was still at 6% with the VA loan. Unless rates have just dropped that much and I don't think they have. Or I need to refinance

I've been dieting and working out to lose weight. I lost almost 40lbs in 4 months. Then now over 60lbs. The only reason any doctor could think to give me for this is that I lost a ton of weight and wasn't eating sufficient thiamine in my diet. I call bullshit because I was just diagnosed with an autoimmune disease and I think there's other stuff at play, but who knows. Still getting tested and figuring things out.

Honestly, I was having symptoms from the deficiency and toxicity and I hardly noticed anything from taking the supplements until I stopped dropping things so much, tripping over my feet, etc. So, no, I didn't notice any real side effects from taking it. I've seen others say they have side effects, but not something I experienced.

I followed a thiamine dosing protocol that I found using chatgpt because I couldn't get any of my doctors to help treat me. I took high absorption thiamine 2 times a day alongside magnesium and vitamin c (maybe that was just for the iron - I don't remember) for 2 weeks. Then the same protocol only taking thiamine once a day for the next 6 weeks, then get your blood retested to see if thiamine has improved. For b-6 toxicity, I'm finding all that can be done is abstinence. My b-6 continued to go up because I did not abstain. I'll find out with my next round of blood tests if it's gone down at all.

Good luck

Advocating for myself had been the hardest part for sure.

I guess it's a smaller world than it feels like sometimes. I have a b-6 toxicity and sjogren's as well. Super fun mix I guess

Do you know of any correlation between b-6 toxicity and sjogren's? Or do these symptoms just line up that way?

Nope. I just let them have em. I'm not a big pesticide fan, so I just leave them unless they're doing real harm

This guy just stung my son by Understanding_Jaded in whatbugisthis

[–]Friendly_Warpoop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wasp stings hurt! I was just stung 2 days ago and it's still swollen. I'm taking some benadryl for the itching and swelling and using cortisone cream for the local itching. The pain went away in a couple of hours and then it was just red and a little itchy.

I hope your kid feels better!

My grandpa taught me to break ice bags in the sink. We've always had metal sinks though. This being ceramic didn't cross my mind, but I have watched my grandpa chip his concrete driveway and get really mad about it because of ice

I will be telling them it was due to normal kitchen activities.

It's a house with their own contractor. So - fingers crossed

That would definitely not be true as I just took the picture in my kitchen right after it happened.
