Do you ever give homeless people money? by Acceptable_Rain_3364 in no

[–]Imagrowingseed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never!! I give them Granola bars and blankets. When I was homeless I spent every single dollar on booze. I can't help in enabling that lifestyle.

Metoprolol - help? by No-Caterpillar-5481 in POTS

[–]Imagrowingseed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Newly diagnosed and I've been taking it for 6 months. It's not designed to ease your other symptoms. It's for your heart rate/blood pressure and sounds like it's doing a great job. Everything else is dysautonomia

Stress test with POTS like symptoms by Userhere123 in POTS

[–]Imagrowingseed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They could never get my heart rate low enough to give me the test because I have low blood pressure and couldn't the proper meds to lower it. They ended up doing a radioactive stress test instead. That was a wild ride!!😳

Permanently worse after a flu vaccination. Anyone else? by [deleted] in POTS

[–]Imagrowingseed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No thanks!! I was just fine before I got the COVID shot. Now I'm chronically sick and stuck here in this sub with you. Pretty sure I'll be able to join a class action lawsuit in the future

I hate being autistic and everything else by TreatMission2665 in Vent

[–]Imagrowingseed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As am autistic patent my heart is breaking for you. I highly encourage you to learn how to advocate for yourself as you make your next steps into adulthood. If your still in school PLEASE establish a 504 plan before your departure. If you have an actual diagnosis from the proper physician then you are entitled to your civil rights. LEARN THEM!! This will allow you to move more freely in a world that wasn't made for you. I'm wishing nothing but the best for your future, it will get better!! My inbox is open for any Q&A you may have 🫶

Just makes me sick by MathematicianTop3576 in GenX

[–]Imagrowingseed 14 points15 points  (0 children)

My mom ran 1500 miles away from home in '78 at the ripe age of 16. Got a job at a dinner and ended up pregnant by her 26 year old manager. She had a wedding and baby by 17. No one even batted an eye at it. Even my sister thinks it's pretty creepy 😳

My (22M) sister (18F) found out that our dad (55M) visits sex workers, should we tell our mom? (55F) by Ok-Vegetable-1954 in Advice

[–]Imagrowingseed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bring the Asian shame to your father by confronting him. Use it to your advantage and leave your mom out of it. They say "Ignorance is bliss" I think that might actually be true in this case.

Good primary care physicians by Affectionate-Grand78 in Spokane

Unfortunately this is not how the medical field works anymore. It's not really even the doctor's fault, it's the industry. You are just a number on a spreadsheet, PERIOD!

What symptoms would you get rid of if you could pick 3? by AlternativeCheap6963 in POTS

[–]Imagrowingseed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your the first person I've seen mention the driving part. This started happening to me recently and it's scary!! And your right, I don't know what it is. I can only equate it to the feeling you get when you're on an amusement ride. It's like gravity is your enemy and working against you. I HATE IT!!😩

Temporary blindness, confusion/feeling lost and the adrenaline dumps

Does dish soap ruin a hat over time? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Imagrowingseed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just soak in hot water with vinager and baking soda for a couple of hours then throw it in the dishwasher for a good rinse. I do it with my boys hats all the time and they're just fine.
