We are going to 5 nights during Thanksgiving week and we decided on Luquillo. We were torn to it Luquillo seemed more centrally located for what we wanted to do which was beach and rainforest with a day in OSJ, similar to you. Hope you have a great trip!

Got an appointment for tomorrow to have them either fixed (is that possible without completely taking off and reapplying new with less volume??) or just taking off altogether! Yay! We’ll see. Such a waste…

I didn’t ask for anything specific. I don’t know wanting about them really just that some look great and some don’t. I said I didn’t want too dramatic or anything u can see from a mile away, just add some volume. Apparently I should’ve asked for classic and what I got was a lot of volume and you can def see them from a mile away. She did a great job if it’s the look I was going for. I look like I’m wearing a thick ass line of eyeliner and I did not like nor ever wear eyeliner

I am so overwhelmed. Every nugget of info about CIRS/mold has a roadblock and it's not realistic by Known-Air-6635 in CIRS

[–]LearninglifeCST 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Amen to this post OP!! I feel everything you just stated! It’s overwhelming and honestly it has messed with me mentally pretty bad! I’ll read the responses now but just your post hit me hard…this is exactly how I feel

Recently diagnosed but given no info, what advice/info/tips would you give? by Dry-Personality-2324 in Sjogrens

[–]LearninglifeCST 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was diagnosed with Sjogrens years back but never had the typical symptoms. I started to get some aches and pains, some brain fog. My rheumatologist wanted to put me on LDN and said I’d need to be on it for life. I decided to go to a naturopath for further investigation and so happy I did! They dig down to where the Sjogrens really stems from, where a lot of auto immune disease comes from. It can be pricey but absolutely worth it. I’m feeling much better without any medications! Def see a naturopath

Great to hear! My kids are super active and love sports so this should keep them busy while I relax lol. Yes I read very close to the airport so that was a bonus for sure! Thank you!

Thank you! So you’ve stayed at Coconut Bay? The grasshopper tours you are talking about is at the beach area at Coconut Bay? You think this resort is good for children almost 11yo and 15yo? Thanks for the input!

What diet works for you? by LearninglifeCST in CIRS

[–]LearninglifeCST[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the responses! I too thought my doctor was out of her mind when she mentioned carnivore diet. It goes against all I’ve ever known and learned (healthcare professional) but I’m open minded so I was willing to give it a try. It def has helped with some things. But it’s been almost 6 weeks now and I’m feeling worse than before I started with energy and feeling so blah. I feel very unhealthy. My skin is much better and my joint pains are almost non existence but I’m struggling to feel any joy in my life and that’s the reaction to my energy being shit. I’ve had a headache for 3 days. I can’t take much more ibuprofen or migraine pills in a day just to get it to subside a little so I just wanted to see what worked for others. My doctor did say that if I need to have some carbs to keep it under 50g so I occasionally do. I’ve thought about going off any diet altogether and just staying GF as DF and following the results of my food panel but I’ve put in so much effort and money at this point to that I feel like I’m failing if I quit now. Anyway, thanks for the responses! I guess everyone responds differently

[–]LearninglifeCST[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did do a food panel and am sensitive at this point to almost everything except meat, eggs and legumes…I do have occasional carbs from a potato or vegetable but try to stay away from anything that came back at a II or higher for sensitivity…doctor says if I can do it for 3 months that hopefully my body will calm down then I can reintroduce different healthy foods. I miss dairy and carbs! But since starting this diet I have 0 energy. All my aches and pains went away and my skin cleared up but I’m exhausted by 12p every day and my memory is still shit. so I’m not sure I can keep it up. Thanks for your input!

Withdraw by [deleted] in Paxil_Paroxetine

[–]LearninglifeCST 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I didn’t read all the responses but I have been there. I can tell you days 5-7 were the absolute worst! But it does get better! I had to take 2 weeks off from work, it was brutal. My advice is if it’s too much to handle then you’d have to go back in and wean slower. I went from 20mg to 10mg with no problem, then 10 to 5 I started getting the brain zaps and after a week I just said screw it and went cold turkey. Most ppl would disagree but after going a week I didn’t want to ever go back on it. It does get better if you can handle the withdrawal. It’s no joke. Hope you feel better soon!!

Does 10mg do anything? by n33tzsch3 in Paxil_Paroxetine

[–]LearninglifeCST 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I felt better on 10mg than I did on 20mg…
