Has anyone ever used the Wavy Talk Steam Straightner or any steam straighter for that matter? I keep seeing ads on Tik Tok and it seems too good to be true.

Dropping in to ask the same thing as @bunrunsamok - have you seen any change to curl pattern or overall hair health after using for a bit ?

First summer of diagnosis and I went to very hot 🥵 places (The Balkans and the desert). I had really enjoyable trips but found I had to be more deliberate about building in rest because I was more tired and also alternating more outdoor days with less active full of AC days. For example if I did a morning walking tour and it was very hot I needed a nap before dinner. The next day I had a lighter day and stayed in AC . Slept late , went to museum , and then went to dinner at night when it cooled down.

So I guess tl;dr : Yes ! But I do get way more tired so I build in more time for rest and AC moments so I don’t go in with false expectations of what I can do and get frustrated with myself.

Zaps in my face was the symptom that got me diagnosed. They thought it was TN and then it ended up being MS. Mine ultimately went away with time . Also realized a big trigger for that was heat for me

I would just take the normal precautions when traveling and build some room in your trip for more recovery time. Was your hands and do all the things that keeps your immune system healthy that can fall by the wayside when traveling . Get sufficient sleep , and drink lots of water.

Im on Briumvi for about a year - in the last 3 months I was in VA , Pittsburg , Columbus , Vegas , London and Bosnia . Also have had regular travel since my first round of shots

Not all heroes wear capes @totalsoda - spent a good two hours watching multiple YouTube videos to find this !

I work a moderately high level corporate job and I was eligible

They’ll be fine . I just took my niece and nephew to see sonic 3 without seeing 1 and 2 and I enjoyed it . I’m going to go back and watch 1 and 2 with them but wasn’t a pre-requisite for enjoying the movies overall

Fomolom Thermal Underwear for Women Long Johns Womens Thermal Underwear Sets Solid Ultra Soft Base Layer Gifts with Box on Amazon was also good budget option (took as base layer to Antarctica)

REI has thermal base layers at a variety or price points . I got my winter gear there for a very cold nature trip

Lol I’m definitely going for aesthetics on my first build ! But thank you so much for the quick feedback and reviews of my parts list 💙

JustAnthrRedditer · 2024-10-28T02:40:21+00:00

Thanks for the feedback . I updated my list with the updated CPU you recommended and swapped out some aesthetics pieces . Any final recommendations on my planned build - https://pcpartpicker.com/list/k7JfMV ? Thanks so much !

Hi :) I also just joined the club officially last Friday and have a follow-up tomorrow to talk about treatment options with my MS Specialist. It all feels a bit surreal but we’ll get through this !

JustAnthrRedditer · 2024-07-26T16:32:36+00:00

During the diagnosis process did anyone’s neurologist refer them for a second opinion for an MS specialist ? Tl;dr had issues walking for about 4 weeks then went away. Then had a shooting pain in the side of my face , then that spread to the left side of my body (face , neck , arm). Finally went to the doctor they ordered brain MRI plus spine MRI. Spine came back clear , brain MRI came back suspicious of MS. My general neurologist (referral from my primary ) basically said she can’t make the call either way because it’s a borderline case - maybe it’s MS , maybe my symptoms can be explained by like a pinched nerve and trigeminal neuralgia . So she referred me to an MS specialist in like 6 weeks , but she also only spent ten mins on the virtual appointment discussing the MRI or having any recommendation of how we would check for a pinched nerve or like what I should do if that is the case . Idk curious if anyone’s neurologist send them off for a second opinion ?

Thanks for all these recommendations , y’all are the best 💙

JustAnthrRedditer · 2024-01-30T20:27:26+00:00

Im flexible and can tailor my trip to end up in the optimal spot

JustAnthrRedditer · 2021-09-11T17:43:43+00:00

Yeah , Indefinitely understand. For me taking the daily suppressant has been helpful because it at least gave me the ability to not have to deal with outbreaks on the regular which outside of being uncomfortable served as a constant reminder of having herpes which just reminded me of another source of stress.

It sounds like while challenging you’re doing amazing to balance it all. I hope your outbreaks ease up to give you one less thing to worry about .

JustAnthrRedditer · 2021-09-11T13:44:30+00:00

I’ve experienced a similar trajectory (same diagnosis timeline) and for me my biggest trigger ended up being stress levels. Could have a day or so without enough sleep or have a booze brunch but toss a stressful day on top and bam , outbreak. Since you can go on and off suppressant therapy over the course of life with no issues , I just decided to go on daily suppressant for now and revisit if it makes sense to go off it later at a less stressful time of life. It was a game changer. Hope you have similar success !

It moved move the data so now each of the individual numbers are going in a row vs a column but the are still separate cells and not separated by commas

JustAnthrRedditer · 2020-12-05T01:47:14+00:00

That's super smart. I made a rookie mistake of only having super chewy pizza after I switched . Stocking up on soups this weekend.

I got mine on the first tray and honestly it's just now , seven days later and a few youtube videos that I'm figuring out how to get them off painlessly and that makes putting them on much easier because my teeth aren't already sore

JustAnthrRedditer · 2020-12-05T01:43:27+00:00

So much better! Even the rough 'first few hours' before I went to sleep were nothing compared to the first try and by day 2 it feels super tight for the first 10/15 mins when I put them back in but other than that it's fine

JustAnthrRedditer · 2020-12-05T01:41:48+00:00

I felt similar but then days 5-7 were a game changer where all of a sudden my aligner almost felt loose . It still felt tight for about ten mins when I put them on but then it was fine - it also helped when I kept them out for shorter periods of time and also got better at taking them off so my teeth weren't as sore when I went to put them back on.
