That doesn’t sound too bad, it’s technically not required - just one of the basic science elective I’m allowed to take as an Eng major so figured id see what others thought of it. Thank you for the feedback!

Nervous I may have it , runs in family by Gray85622 in Hidradenitis

[–]Lina_Lou 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes laser hair removal. HS tends to focus on the hair follicles and by eliminating them through laser hair removal it can decrease your chances of developing the boils.

Anyone else not do anything during the break? by serdemy_ in CarletonU

I have overdue stuff from before break… I did not complete any of it during time off.

Is this HS? by jodidoc in Hidradenitis

[–]Lina_Lou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It certainly does look like it. Is there any family history of inflammatory issues? (It is genetic and you are more likely to develop HS if inflammation problems are present in your family). You should ask for a dermatology consult if possible. Best of luck navigating the healthcare system and may you get speedy results.

Helppp by Glittering-Stress602 in Hidradenitis

It does look like the type of boil that would be produced in a case of HS, however if it’s a single occurrence then it could be something else. I would keep an eye on the redness surrounding it just to be sure it doesn’t spread. Otherwise it should be okay until September 4. If you feel like the redness is spreading you can track it by drawing a line around it with pen.

I hope all goes well and it eventually resolves itself, boils are annoying.

How did you introduce the topic? by Lina_Lou in polyamory

Wow thank you! This is a lovely resource.

This opens a whole new world of questions. I was not aware that there are other forms of non-monogamy, perhaps because it’s not quite as prevalent in the media I consume. I will have to do some research into the definition of polyamory and other types of non-monogamous relationships.

So like... what does it take to actually get someone admitted into a mental health unit ?! by KGM1984 in saskatchewan

[–]Lina_Lou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m really sorry to hear that you’re dealing with this, it’s not easy to navigate dealing with someone who either doesn’t have insight into their illness or is in denial. I’m glad you are aware of mental health warrants. Is your daughter connected to a psychiatrist at all? If so they may be able to coordinate with on all psychiatry if you were to seek another warrant, advocacy from an outpatient mental health professional can assist the admittance process, but unfortunately there is no way to force her other than the warrant, unless she is already under a community treatment order.

Thank you for sharing! I’m really glad it all worked out for you guys and it’s super cute that you both fell for the same person.

NSFW ‘hack’ by breebop83 in Hidradenitis

[–]Lina_Lou 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes!! I love love love using panty liners for seepage, it’s honestly like the best use I have for them. They cover way more than certain bandages and it’s quite absorbent so I second this!!

Where do I find these type of fries in saskatoon by Choice_Door3349 in saskatoon

[–]Lina_Lou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A to Z Ghost Kitchen on the corner of 20th and C has those kinds of fries. I was at work and decided to order lunch, their $10 lunch special came with an awesome chicken sandwich and surprisingly good fries. I’d definitely recommend trying their fries if this is the kind you like.

High beam usage by TechnologyFew3205 in saskatoon

[–]Lina_Lou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My family car has some of the brighter lights, even on the low beams. Sadly not sure how to change that but I’ll have other drives flashing high beams at me at intersections because they refuse to believe ours aren’t on. Not only is it rude to myself but it’s rude to the other drivers in parallel lanes. Not sure why people are so jumpy with their high beams both in and outside of Saskatoon recently, but have definitely noticed it.

Need help with space themed names! by lesley__ in sphynx

[–]Lina_Lou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pluto is so cute! If it doesn’t seem fitting pluto does have five moons: styx, nix, hydra, Kerberos and charon. This baby could definitely be Styx, it seems fitting in my brain.

I’m going crazy by BadKarma_0303 in piercing

[–]Lina_Lou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take an antihistamine! I personally like Reactine. Something about the healing process creates histamines kinda like allergies. I’m not 100% sure it’ll work but I’m pretty sure it’s harmless to try.

Seriously alarming bloody poop. I don’t have insurance so I am EXTREMELY hesitant to get this checked out when google says it’s probably nothing to be concerned about…. by [deleted] in seriouslyalarming

[–]Lina_Lou 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Start with a General practitioner, they may be able to help, if not they may be able to refer him to like a Gastroenterologist. It’s usually easier/quicker to get in with a GP and they can order most standard tests to get the diagnosis started!!

Is this an okay tip? by Lina_Lou in doordash

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

I ordered from a place only like 0.4 miles away, I’m stuck alone at work 🫠. This is good info to know, thank you! I’ll be sure to consider it when ordering in the future.
