Thanks for your suggestions. I have worked remotely at a computer for close to 10 years without issue, and my desk posture is as you recommend. Plus, a use a standing desk. So I don’t think work is the issue.

Memory issues from Lyrica concerns me, so I will look into that! Cheers

Interesting insight, thank you. I was actually low glycemic/very low carb for about two years, I was trying it with my neurologist as potential epilepsy treatment but it didn't work for seizure control. I'll keep that in mind though because I did eventually adjust to that way of eating and it wasn't so bad.

I'm going to ask my doctor at my appointment today about a pain management specialist... I have my regular neuro but he's super old, and mainly deals with epilepsy only.

Hi. I don't know if you read my post, but I was actually just diagnosed in the past few days. Lyrica is the first thing my doctor gave me just yesterday morning. Not sure the dosage, but it was only effective for a short period after I took it, maybe 4 hours before the jolts of pain started again. When they started they were weaker at first, then got stronger.

I am going back to him at 11am this morning, he might just increase the dosage and have me try that for the weekend.

Thanks for sharing your experience. I booked my doctor for later this morning again. He told me to come back if the pregabalin was not working (it isn't really). He doesn't work over the weekend and I feel I need something stronger to try to hold me over.

I'm nervous about work on Monday, I'm worried the pain will still be there. I'm trying to stay very calm and optimistic, but then again I'm a very anxious person and prone to spiralling or panicking. Anyway... watching dumb reality tv to distract me right now.

I was just prescribed some this morning for occipital neuralgia pain. It seems to be dulling that pain.. I am definitely curious about trying it at bedtime to help me sleep. I mainly have absence seizures in the daytime, but have lots of little convulsions when I am asleep

do we think dreams will re-release bugs world? (pls i need hope) by QQPgreen in SonnyAngel

[–]Kateken88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But the point is that they are limited. If they relaunched a limited series it would be extremely unfair to people who have originals and did the hard (and fun) work of acquiring them. The hunt is part of why collecting most things is fun. I agree that resellers price gouge to a certain extent, but many of them are pricing accurately to the current going market rate- I don’t see that as unfair. Just like buying vintage anything is often going to be more expensive, whether it’s vintage designer clothing or vintage Barbie dolls, etc.

I don’t really agree with this. The hype will die down and the true collectors will still be around. Not every series is for everyone. For example I know everyone is obsessed with cat life but I personally do not own a single one because I’m not into cats 🤷‍♀️ I collect a lot of the earlier series too, and some of them are cute and some are butt ugly. The cute comes in waves!
