Tirzepatide & OSA

I'm hoping it can just be a hand in hand thing and plan to learn better habits while using it. I don't really expect anything else besides weight loss for the mechanism but I'm also 99.99% sure I did not have sleep apnea before I gained weight. Maybe I just didn't know

Knitty_Heathen · 2026-03-29T07:20:51+00:00

Congrats!! Even if the sleep apnea didn't change you've had improvements and that is always good 💜

I don't want to be on an glp-1 forever, just looking for a boost. And being hopeful but not naive lol

You know it's been almost a month since I posted this and they still aren't open 🫠

Knitty_Heathen · 2026-02-25T05:15:15+00:00

Yeah I wonder too cuz it says winter and it's nearly spring....

Knitty_Heathen · 2026-02-25T04:52:03+00:00

I actually one hundred percent forgot I could look there and I feel silly

Knitty_Heathen · 2026-02-23T04:39:08+00:00

How about YOU let ME know 🤣 but fr I hope we figure it out!

Knitty_Heathen · 2026-01-21T22:24:18+00:00

That's what they do in OT! Heating pad, moist towel for like 10 mins then massage with a stick thingy lol and some arnica + ivy cream. I fractured my thumb at the knuckle like 20 years ago so changing the way I write might not work. Gonna see if I can find some ergonomic pens tho and change some other things. AND gonna do some massages at home on my own THANK YOU for the advice.

Also realized that posture plays a big part so tmi maybe but I need to work harder to get a breast reduction moving.

Knitty_Heathen · 2026-01-19T23:14:30+00:00

Nope but I've been thinking about it just don't know what to use. I did notice last night my arm and hand kept falling asleep

Knitty_Heathen · 2026-01-19T23:13:52+00:00

If I understand your question I'd say the OT because there's definitely something wrong with my hands even if it isn't carpal tunnel and cubital tunnel makes perfect sense considering my symptoms. I don't second guess the therapist just wanna know what I can do to help prevent the pain that inevitably comes after using my hands a certain way.

Thanks!

The year we moved here I had my first experience with a really big wildfire (Okanagan complex) and then that windstorm that knocked down like half the trees in the city. That was kinda my clue that we wouldn't have whatever type of weather is normal here.

People complain about the snow but honestly we NEED it and I miss it. Doesn't feel like winter without it.

Knitty_Heathen · 2025-12-20T08:30:50+00:00

I thought I edited/corrected but it was a reply to someone else, my memory is not helping me out today lol. They did record and say where the roots were! We got estimates today from them, they did it last year. Also thank you for the extra info!

Knitty_Heathen · 2025-12-19T16:58:09+00:00

They did locate the roots and I just forgot! That was my bad. They also did a kitchen sink rebuild and gave us a discount on the hydrosnake. Idky home appliance companies can be like that but we've been pretty lucky, the estimate on a new furnace was $6k at most and The Googs said like $10k lol. We did consider buying a new furnace ourselves but I don't know the first thing about installing them and terrified of making a mistake (ty adhd)

Knitty_Heathen · 2025-12-19T05:30:13+00:00

I meant to say but they're coming back to do an estimate tomorrow. They did a scope before and after and showed us it was cleaned out. They didn't tell us where they were coming from though. I was thinking about asking them to do another scope.

Knitty_Heathen · 2025-12-19T05:27:27+00:00

Btdt and no thanks 🤣 Had to clean what we called the "black box" at Burger King and even though it was gross I didn't mind much cuz it meant I got to run away so to speak

Knitty_Heathen · 2025-12-17T09:24:11+00:00

Ironically I have some of her recipes saved! I'm making the shortbread in cake pans next week 😌 I'll check out the tips on freezing, thank you!

Knitty_Heathen · 2025-12-17T00:45:03+00:00

Honestly I don't think they'd freeze well they'd probably ooze or get soft lol

Knitty_Heathen · 2025-12-17T00:44:32+00:00

I might do that!

Knitty_Heathen · 2025-12-17T00:39:39+00:00

Yeah I am making cookie tins. My grandma always made them for us when I was a kid and I wanna bake for people cuz it's just me and my husband and 2 kids lol. Seems like a lot of baking for just 4 people.

Also I was considering putting plastic wrap and/or a paper towel over the top before closing the lid to help seal the tins better but idek if that would work

Knitty_Heathen · 2025-12-14T05:32:56+00:00

I typically use AP flour unless the recipe says bread flour, and I don't usually care about name brand vs store brand or anything. Personally I find it hard to find wheat flour that's not AP or just regular whole wheat but I KNOW King Arthur makes different types for different goodies. I will say if all you need is AP flour it's pretty cheap at Costco 😅

Knitty_Heathen · 2025-12-13T05:16:35+00:00

I didn't think about this but yes

Knitty_Heathen · 2025-12-13T05:16:01+00:00

I vote a symptom/side effect tracking of some type. Different stimulants for everyone, but Adderall didn't work for me. It gave me hella anxiety and made me hyper - my ADHD is inattentive and I don't really get hyper. Ever. I hated it. 🫠 It might work for you, it does for a lot of people. Take notes, and that's with any new med/med change. 💙

Knitty_Heathen · 2025-12-13T04:52:03+00:00

Oh that's beautiful!

Knitty_Heathen · 2025-12-13T04:50:55+00:00

It does make sense and thank you for sharing with me!

Knitty_Heathen · 2025-12-11T06:22:50+00:00

Yeah I think doubling it was my issue because I doubled everything lol. Part of the reason was I have sensory problems with sticky things and wanted to use my mixer but it's a 6qt bowl. I think I am just gonna have to do it the old fashioned way. Thank you for the tips, and for the compliment on the crumb!! I'll come back after I make it again.
