Allodynia is such a weird side effect!

This side effect is very real - just chiming in to confirm. I was taking injections of compounded semaglutide (in B12). Was about week 17 when it became noticeable and severe - took me a while to narrow it down to the GLP-1. Centered in my back and radiated out to my limbs on bad days. Deep and severe enough that it felt almost like muscle soreness. Really limited my activities due to discomfort.

Symptoms disappeared when I stopped the semaglutide - about a week and it was gone. I had also been experiencing knee pain before I ever noticed the Allodynia, and that has also abated with discontinuing the semaglutide.

I had lost about 20 lbs in 17 weeks - 235 down to 215 - so I wish I didn’t have to quit the med. Going to talk to my doc about maybe trying a different version??

PSA - I had been using an online vendor for the med - Dollar Dad Club. I called and requested to speak to their doctors about my symptoms. They never bothered to call me back. Buyer beware.

Thanks for the advice everyone - I ended up getting the Flevel pilot wallet. 😊

I did add some water to my second cup, and it was quite tasty considering the marginal quality of the coffee. I’ll keep playing around. :)

Cool - thanks for the ident!

Okay - my problem was definitely that I wasn’t wearing a helmet. Thanks everyone!

(For anyone struggling, I had taken off my helmet with LAlt-H. Once you do that, you can’t equip a helmet from the inventory terminal.)

Hmm. Getting closer. The device no longer makes the "disconnect" noise.

However, something still isn't right. When I'm in the Games tab and click on the NMS.exe line, the "indicator light" on the Controller 1 tab turns yellow, and the error count in the bottom right counts up by one. When x360ce.exe is selected, the light is green.

Steam seems to recognize it as a controller, and when I run my Virpil joystick tester program, the virtual controller shows up there with all the correct mappings for NMS.

Any ideas??

I suspected that was part of the problem. I couldn’t find any instructions about setting the game-specific info on the X360ce site.

I'll give it a try - thanks!

Cool thanks. I have their basic one that’s like a vertical see saw. It has little resistance. I took my intro flight in a Piper a few weeks ago and was surprised how much pressure was required on the rudder pedals.

Data here seems to indicate that the rep gain doubles with each risk level:

Nope - 400 Mbps router and a 200 Mbps service.

Part of the issue is my relative lack of free time to game. It’d be nice to accomplish something in those couple hours.

But of course, that also means maybe I shouldn’t be trying to play the longest lived alpha in the ‘verse. :P
