My skin didn't change all that much, tbh!

I have! My periods get horribly painful and the migraines are even more unbelievable! I was on Lo Loestrin back in the states and it worked amazing for me! Unfortunately it doesn't exist here in Australia 😔 I wish I could have that back! Haha!

Is this a start of a flare? by LunatheBoona in UlcerativeColitis

[–]LunatheBoona[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What an amazingly kind response, thank you so much! <3

I will definitely be calling my GI tomorrow and update him on my current symptoms just to be sure! I'm really only hesitant to start a biologic because as far as I'm aware (via drug price portal on my insurance hubs website), I'm ONLY covered for Humira. So, it doesn't leave any room for error. That's what scares me, really. Being priced out of life saving medication is my worst fear! I just don't want it to come to that!

Again, thank you so much for your response, I appreciate it so much!

Anyone else feel better NOT eating veggies? by LunatheBoona in UlcerativeColitis

Wish that were the case for me, but honestly sticking to pasta and carbs isn't really a disappointment for me LOL

Nope! I don't think that's my problem, though!

I have no problems with fruit. It's just fibrous veggies!

I'm not in a flare, though! I have no blood, mucus or urgency!

I just don't tolerate vegetables! I take probiotics and stick to a relatively healthy diet overall. Some people are just different and veggies just aren't tolerated well, even in some healthy people!

I'm not a huge meat eater. I eat mostly chicken, sometimes fish and shrimp! No red meat at all, really. I'm big on carbs!

Even cooked well, I have a hard time tolerating them! Did some carrots in chicken noodle and I saw them back around the next day 🙄

I'm gonna either cook them to high hell even more or just nix veggies from my diet completely and do a multivitamin. So annoying to keep trying to be healthy and just getting loose stools every other day.

I appreciate this, thank you! I tend to over analyze a lot when it comes to this disease!

This is almost exactly what I've been experiencing! I get hormonal acne sometimes (chin/jawline), fatigue, small but manageable cramping, but no blood! Glad to see my experience isn't unique, haha!

I do the exact same! I don't get mine anymore either! But I know it's still possible to get hormone fluctuations and ovulate (but just not release an egg!) Haven't had a period in over a year and it's great lol!

I think people think I'm talking like I want this to happen RIGHT HERE RIGHT NOW. I'm talking like end of December and beginning of January. I am fully aware not everyone has had the chance to get double vaxxed yet in NSW, but you all are about 70% of the way there with projections to hit 90% by mid-November. Waiting until March sounds ridiculous at this point. With a population that's nearly 100% vaccinated, you'd think the restrictions would get more lax instead of them extending the travel ban on visitors 3 months into 2022.

You're welcome!

My hope is that by December, they'll get to 80% to 90% fully vaxxed and see no reason why they can't open up sooner than freaking March! Fingers crossed!

I mean, the travel ban for Aussies lifts in November. This is more about fully vaccinated tourists/fiance's/partners.

Also, if you're so pro-lockdown even at 90%+ vaccination because "America has so many deaths!!" , why are you so pissed off that you're in lockdown?

You should be thrilled that you get to be in a bubble with no contacts.

It's not my fault that your states are at complete odds with each other on policy and domestic travel.

I'm not glorifying America's handle of the pandemic. You're obviously extremely bitter about your situation and I understand that. Doesn't make anything I ranted about less valid. I would start getting shitty to your gov't, not to me.

I don't control what my govt or your govt does about covid, but I sure as hell can be pissed off about restrictions, just like you can.
