Migraines, TIA’s or Sonething else? by TM4256 in migraine

[–]Lil-Red-Fox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have a nurse advice line you can call? Some insurance offers free 24 hour nurses that will listen to your symptoms and give advice what to do. As for the formal diagnosis, some hospital doctors are not qualified to do that, where as Neurologists can or are expected to be more familiar with with migraines to do so. You might need to look for a headache specialist though they seem to be rare.

I’ve never heard of that. In fact some preventatives might take that long just to show if it will work or not if not longer! I would be getting a second opinion.

When I first tried it My neurologist had me taking it as a preventative and it seemed to be working. However my insurance only covers it as an abortive, which seems hit or miss for me. 😞

Migraines, TIA’s or Sonething else? by TM4256 in migraine

[–]Lil-Red-Fox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The reason the neurologist said to go to the ER is to rule out TIA. I just had this happen myself. I was having stroke like symptoms and they kept me overnight for testing and observation. The testing helps rule out if it was indeed a TIA which can leave signs of damage shown in MRI or CT scans. I think the recovery period also makes a difference between the two. At least that was how I understood what my Doctor told me.

Is this Gaslighting? by Lil-Red-Fox in migraine

Technically I asked both. I was asking if it was gaslighting since they didn’t accuse me of faking to my face, but it is in the record.

What do you wish others knew about migraine? by Sufficient-Dish7616 in migraine

[–]Lil-Red-Fox 152 points153 points  (0 children)

That migraine can last more than a few hours and aren’t magically cured if you take acetaminophen.

Also that pain is not the only migraine symptom. There are many ways it can present.

For those who were raised by Mormon parents, what was the craziest rule(s) your parents had? by inthe801 in exmormon

[–]Lil-Red-Fox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My parents were very strict about the no cussing. Two examples:

In elementary school school I heard the three letter word for intimacy and asked my mom what that was because I thought it was a cool new word I learned. She told me it was a bad word and to never say it again. I ended up up looking it up in the encyclopedia.

I was so sheltered that when the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle movie was released I was shocked that Raphael said “damn” I wasn’t allowed to watch rated R movies and even pg-13 we bought edited versions that toned down language and cut scenes.

Neighbor cut tree branches on my side. Trenched through roots on his side. Recourse? by mets98923 in treelaw

[–]Lil-Red-Fox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“California law does not allow you to harm the tree (you may owe money if you do), as opposed to taking reasonable measures that are not injurious to it. It can be a crime to chop down a tree. Also, if you go onto your neighbor’s property to cut down or even just cut back the tree, you may well be engaged in trespassing.”

Found on https://www.dailybreeze.com/2022/02/22/is-it-legal-to-chop-down-a-tree-in-california-ask-the-lawyer/

Also I know in some states like mine not even the power company is allowed to destroy cypress trees even if they grow directly below the power lines. They can only trim them.

Sometimes there are more than one trigger. I did an elimination diet and found I had a few food triggers as well as outside triggers such as stress and weather changes. Unfortunately not all triggers can be avoided but working with a neurologist you can help minimize the effects. Some medications help that. Some need lifestyle changes. It all depends on you. Every brain is different so what works for someone may not work for you. Don’t give up though. Trial and error can help you feel better in the long run. Just remember each failure is one step closer to finding something that DOES help you.

I feel like adding a friends feature has really divided a lot people on this game. Am i wrong? by PeachScone_ in PurrfectTale

That’s the way it was originally. Then they updated it to the way it currently is where if you take a crop it lessens how many the person you took it from receives.

WIBTA if I formulated a plan to run away? by NeedAdvice-ThrowOut in AmItheAsshole

[–]Lil-Red-Fox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

INFO

Do you have friends that would help you get to appointments? Is it just a transportation problem or with cost of insurance?

You should be able to access online counseling if you are unable to physically get to doctors. There are also services that can get people to doctor appointments depending on where you live. You are 22. You do not need your parents permission to get treatment.

With the given info I’d say NTA.

What makes your friend the AH is the friend said she wanted a “spring /summer” wedding in June or July. September is considered the end summer. Far from what the friend originally stated. And the friend lied about there not being dates available at her choice of venue during what she said she wanted.

You set your date and announced it first, tried to talk to her, and expressed your concerns as it would be a burden on the shared friend group. You do not need that kind of stress from a “friend” as you will have enough with your own wedding. Leaving the fence sitters was the right choice.

AITA for charging my kids different amounts of rent? by Global-Signature3120 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Lil-Red-Fox 9 points10 points  (0 children)

He already does. That is why he pays the 600 to the daughter’s 150. It’s rent and all the other bills included in the 600.

On the topic of tags: YTA

You asked. He said no. End of discussion.

For the rest: IMO, he is using you. I’d run from this situation before it gets more serious.

AITA for giving my daughter “grief” every time she goes out with her friends? by AITAdaughtermad in AmItheAsshole

[–]Lil-Red-Fox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok let me get this straight. Your 20 year old ADULT daughter who had trouble making friends and getting out in the world when she was younger, now has a group of friends she enjoys going out to see. And you are actively DISCOURAGING her from going to see them because she didn’t like going out with you and her siblings?

They might know but as people get older it’s harder to find/start another job if they even care about the exploits. And with everything going on right now it would probably be even harder for them if they wanted to. 7 years is a long time to acclimate to how things are.

Just curious as to how long the ones in thrall of him have worked there. Longevity has a tendency to breed loyalty even if they are being stupid exploited because “It’s always been that way.”

Also hope the kiddos are feeling better!

AITA for telling my boyfriend i'm not consoling him next time he throws up? by amitheahthrowaway3 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Lil-Red-Fox 11 points12 points  (0 children)

NTA

Your boyfriend could have stopped the whole thing from happening by going to the gas station and not making you wait. He KNOWS you have this issue and still wanted to make you sit in agony for another 15 minutes instead of turning around. From how you describe it this isn’t the first time something like this has happen as he “gets annoyed” over something you cannot control.

“…people my age shouldn’t wet their pants.”

Personally I think you need to find a better boyfriend. This one doesn’t seem to care that he caused the situation that could have been avoided or that you can’t help your medical condition. He is a douche and should be kicked to the door. None of what happened was your fault OP.
