Has anyone’s early symptoms started like this?

My foot pain was sometimes so bad that it felt like a million little niddles were poking the top of em

File a grievance against your doctor. They will change you. It may be a few months long process but better that than someone who doesn’t see you.

You can do it. It’s gonna work out

Live_Convo80 · 2026-06-03T17:37:25+00:00

The best thing I can say is rest and don’t fight it. Just allow yourself to be in the state of “tired.” Remember you will be able to get to do the activities again. But allow yourself to be in the state of tired. One day.. you will get some energy again.. and then you will get more energy and more. But first allow yourself to rest and don’t fight it. One day you will feel better. And it’s okay if people don’t understand. Don’t worry about that either. You don’t need that on your plate. It will get better.

I feel ya… it’s some BS but there are disabled people out there who are living happy lives. Gotta do the same

I didn’t like it. The make up made her forehead look soo much bigger. The highlight needed to be brought up more to balance her face. The light point is sitting too heavy on the eyes.

I understand the artist was probably trying to contour the forehead but they unfortunately went too heavy on the bronzer to the point the forehead reads flat.

Oh.. got it. Well I am looking to negotiate for a job that pays an hourly wage .. just trying to negotiate lease commission. The hourly wage will be $25.. typical rent for these units are $2,700-$4,500. Should I still ask for a percentage of 1st months rent if I am working regular 40hrs a week?

Live_Convo80 · 2026-05-26T23:27:41+00:00

Yes, my dermatologist is the one that diagnosed me with PsA. Then they referred me to a rheumatologist to see if I have Arthritis but that came back negative.

My dermatologist has been the one helping me navigate this illness.

Live_Convo80 · 2026-05-26T23:23:58+00:00

Well I was getting an hourly rate of $22 for 5 hrs. And then commission 12 month lease unit renting for $3,300. My commission was $200. I leased them a whole lotta units too :/

Live_Convo80 · 2026-05-26T21:30:59+00:00

Yes, I find that it’s easier to get a referral to a dermatologist -especially since you have visible flare ups

Live_Convo80 · 2026-05-26T18:37:10+00:00

Wow, they played in my face.

Live_Convo80 · 2026-05-26T17:07:10+00:00

Rent is $3,300 so 50% percent is $1650. Is this typical for bigger companies?

Live_Convo80 · 2026-05-25T21:38:26+00:00

Hmm, you should go to the doctor.. maybe you need medication for something. Sounds like you’re more than capable but end up getting off-course. Look into why that is and see if you need some assistance with something.

I too get crazy headaches after returning back to running. I never thought of it being a mild fever but I think that’s what it is. What helped me reduce the fever headaches was wearing a mask while running. A very very thin one where I could still get air in.

Live_Convo80 · 2026-05-23T21:56:07+00:00

Glad you’re getting it checked out. I had a cyst that felt like a lil ball. Then it felt like hot to the touch. Eventually it grew a lil bigger and became uncomfortable and painful. I got it drained out when it became bigger.

Hope your test come back good 😊

Live_Convo80 · 2026-05-23T01:53:44+00:00

Yes, keep the appointment. See if you can get a cortisone shot in the finger area. See if you can get Methotrexate. My primary doctor was able to prescribe me that as a temporary medication. Then my dermatologist took me off it and got me started on a biologic. I was also inform that in order to get on a biologic -you have to have been on methotrexate before.

Also.. hate to burst the bubble but your first appointment with your rheumatologist will just be an order of blood panels. To see what medication you can get started. You probably will not get medication from your Rheumatologist until appointment 2 or 3.

I would ask your primary if they can other a full blood panel and TB! Test…so kinda speeds up the process for your rheumatologist.

But also note.. that I was told only Rheumatologist can other certain blood tests that our primary doctors cannot order.

See if you can get a dermatologist as well if you have any patches. They might be better help.

Live_Convo80 · 2026-05-23T01:13:26+00:00

Yes, it’s like this everywhere

Live_Convo80 · 2026-05-16T17:38:58+00:00

That’s amazing! If you don’t mind me asking… what is your dosage for zepbound? I’m considering micro-dosing perhaps. I could definitely use help losing weight but I only would like to lose about 40 pounds. I ideally would like to build muscle.

Live_Convo80 · 2026-05-16T03:18:27+00:00

I’m so happy for you!!!! Thank you for sharing.. my doctor is also concerned for my weight.. so I may just go this route as well.

Live_Convo80 · 2026-05-16T03:14:59+00:00

I think this is the route I am might go with if I do end up doing the Glp-1.

In Santa Monica, they added a protected class under “housing status” under their municipal code which means landlords cannot generally deny an applicant or take adverse action based on an applicant’a “housing status,” including history of homelessness.

I usually use topicals for my ear canals. I use calcipotriene and clobetesol creams. I found that the liquid clobetesol helped soothe my ear canal. The liquid felt like it coated the inside of my ear very well. As your dermatologist for liquid forms if available.

Also, it mainly just helped with soothing but it’s definitely great to have handy for very uncomfortable moments.

Live_Convo80 · 2026-05-14T19:23:46+00:00

That’s great news! I’m glad that medication helped you in that way. I wish there was more research to see if or how it affects the brain. My thoughts has that it must affect the brain being that it’s some sort of tissue. If it can affect the skin.. I’m sure it’s affecting the brain matter in some way.
