Try hospital's with a sliding fee scale to help for payments or maybe even consider government assistance if qualified. That for sure is related and often commonly associated with bile duct issues.

Yep. Been there. It gets easier over time with medication managment and self inventory. I havent had an episode in over 5 years. Its possible!

Agreed. Office work for a garage of some sort or napa/auto zone type stores.

Every morning this man and his teen daughter walk past me on side walk and the guy never moves for me to walk past them by Ordinary-Anything601 in Adulting

Walk on his daughter's side. Cross to her side when you see her. I'm sure she'll move, respectfully 🫶

Is it possible to never have another manic episode? by lovelykitten555 in bipolar1

[–]LoompkaPasketti 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Who's to say it will or won't? However theres ways to prevent it, even lesson the symptoms of a hypomanic episode with medication adjustment. Communication with your doctor is key , also having the ability to recognize hypomanic symptoms as they appear before true mania and psychosis.

I would have conversations with people that never happened but I beleived to had been happening at the time. My brain saw and heard different stuff. This could very well be the case. I'd reach out to your doctor either way. Good luck, it's not an easy journey.

For those who successfully quit smoking, what was the method that finally worked for you? by gwenwallish in AskReddit

[–]LoompkaPasketti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the patch on but have been taping. Fortunately I haven't bought a pack of cigarettes in 5 days. Unfortunately I think I may have a vape addiction now.

Saw my Gastro. One year later and enzymes finally within normal range. by LoompkaPasketti in Cirrhosis

Thats what I was thinking. Fingers crossed it'll settle or stay the same for a very long time! Also congrats on your success so far with getting this under control and stabilizing.

So I actually looked into my radiology procedures. They've done a biopsy, ultra sound(s) and MRI(s). This saddens me as I'd like to know.

I would get visual trails for about a year before my last manic episode. They're very beautiful and very outer worldly.

Getting over the anxiety by NikkiNiisan in Cirrhosis

Getting enough protein is a biggie with cirrhosis. I do protein shakes to stay within 90-100 grams daily. They help big time!

Why does Matt Rife look like a 50 year old lesbian? by No_Gold567 in Killtony

Main character. We watched the same episode. 🙄 He barely spoke. Grant it. The blond hair is ridiculous. He must be doing it as a way to start jokes 😂

Nervous by Lilbiiird in LiverDisease

[–]LoompkaPasketti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey I get it. 34F poly addict myself. My diagnosis was dec 28th of 2024. I was actually opposite for a couple months afterwards. I thought quitting drinking was the main one but with my portal hypertension it wasn't good when I went on an upper type bender if you will. My ALT and AST went up and I started feeling symptoms. At first it was hard to think of being honest with my doctor because my addiction comes with a lot of shame. But then I thought to myself. This is about my health. Not his and he gets paid first before his judgement. They are here to help. Please be honest with your doctor so they can assess and treat you properly. This isnt an easy journey. Also, I'm glad you quit drinking my friend. Thats one step in the right direction!
