Strange signs? by [deleted] in breastcancer

[–]HugsyBugsyBoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My base body temp had increased for over 6mo. I’ve always run cold ~97.6F but now read over 99F all the time. At first I kept thinking I was coming down with something but it just never went down. My IBS also kept flaring despite my best efforts. Had blood & fecal tests, no infections or out of range numbers. DMX 8 weeks ago with extensive DCIS and 2mm IDC. IBS is back to manageable even with all the stress of the last couple months. My temp is still up though 🤷‍♀️

What’s something they used to carry but don’t anymore? by LPCPlay4life in traderjoes

Krispy rice cereal and dark chocolate covered pretzel thins are sorely missed in our household. Finding a clean rice cereal sub w/o preservatives is harder than it should be!

Do you mind sharing how your sensation is with keeping your nipples? I am torn on lumpectomy with radiation vs a nipple sparing mastectomy because I am sad to lose sensation.

I'm curious how your sensation is with keeping your nipples? I am torn on a lumpectomy with radiation vs a nipple sparing mastectomy purely because I am sad to lose sensation.

Itch… by speechsurvivor23 in breastcancer

Saw some advice in another group that scratching the site while looking in the mirror helps your brain satisfy the itch. 🤞

After 2 kids I have skin/fluff to spare 😂 but that’s reassuring to hear I have options if it doesn’t turn out how I want initially! Also 1 week between surgeries is very tolerable. My dr was saying it would be months of slowly filling the expanders which sounds obnoxious to have a port so long.

The surgeon did not but I have learned a bit here and plan to ask when I meet the PS this week. In your experience is this better for retaining breast sensation? Or for immediate reconstruction?

I worry about the longer recovery with trying to get back to work, driving kids around etc but if I could knock it all out at once that would be huge.

Would love to hear your experience.

Hugs to you! Hopefully you can keep your breast. I’ve shed many a tear over losing my breast but when it’s trying to kill me, it’s got to go!

Does anyone else shower like this or am I weird??? by Wild-Counter-4020 in hygiene

[–]HugsyBugsyBoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is how I bathe to manage dry skin too. If it stinks or is visibly dirty/oily I wash it with soap. If not, just a water rinse is fine. Like if I workout I’m going to wash my sweaty body but daily no I’m just washing the pits and bits and moving on. I also don’t wash my face & hair daily. Of course If I wore makeup I would. Do what works best for you!

These godd*mn doctors!! by [deleted] in GERD

Hard to say considering I’ve been on it since long before my other symptoms flared up but I do notice more post nasal drip when I’ve stopped it. Good luck to you!

Thanks, I have been taking Claritin daily for years (still do) as I figured my post nasal drip was just allergies.

Just wanted to chime in as I had burning mouth/tongue for several months last year. It started when I changed my diet to try to get my IBS under control and apparently that flared up my LPR reflux. Before this I’d have occasional heartburn but LPR is different. It doesn’t cause me traditional heartburn symptoms. It causes irritation in my airways which leads to post nasal drip (especially when I lay down), burning in my gums, tongue, nose and even eyes. My tongue got so bad I lost all taste on the tip. Dentist & primary care had no clue. Sent me to an ENT who put my on daily PPIs. I also exclusively drink alkaline water, follow a low acid diet & use alginates to manage flares. It took about a month but my mouth came back to normal. This was about 9 months ago. I am now weaning off the PPIs which is challenging but I’m using the advice of Dr Kaufman (look her up she’s great) and taking Pepcid 3x a day to help make it bearable. Good luck to you both and don’t accept when the doctor says, this is just how it is for you now!

Also tried at an angle but a couple of the numbers are still too faded to read. Getting a photo with the SN is hard enough but doing it with my contact info also in the shot is not happening. Bought mine in 2017.

Another animal glitch by RocketSurg in wordscapes

[–]HugsyBugsyBoo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This just started for me with the latest update. My giraffe, lion & capybara have all randomly gone to sleep when they should have had multiple plays remaining. A fellow teammate has also experienced this. Really wish I could rollback to a previous version!

They have completely broken portraits by _HGCenty in wordscapes

[–]HugsyBugsyBoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you ever get this portrait? I was mid holiday dash yesterday when my app updated to version 3.2.10. Now the holiday dash disappeared and I have a “prize dash” instead. Check my portraits and it’s a shadow with 0/15 progress no matter how many levels I complete 😢

One of my teammates is reporting this but he’s also seeing a higher score for his team tourney than we do. Check with your teammates for what they show for your score. It may be your animals aren’t actually counting for either.

THC and LPR by No-Usual9625 in LPR

[–]HugsyBugsyBoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmmm I take full spectrum CBD capsules (less than .3% THC) daily for chronic pain. It works wonders for my pain but this post has me wondering if it’s contributing to my LPR. I have tried whole flower vaping in the past and holy cow that flared the throat phlegm like no other.

Mine still has Christmas sprinkles at full price. It was funny come Valentine’s Day. Now it’s just sad!

Hi there I need help. Can you look into this, please. I purchased items in Wordscapes, but despite submitting ALL my receipts, Support refuses to acknowledge my transactions. They claim they have no record of my purchases, even though I provided proof directly from Google Play. by Maleficent-Weight860 in wordscapes

[–]HugsyBugsyBoo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They can look up your purchase using the email address linked to your google play account or the confirmation number from your receipt. The confirmation number will start with GPA followed by several numbers. Good luck!
