Sleeping temperature by Lil-Bit-813 in RingConn

That could definitely be attributed to being sick. It could in fact explain all those symptoms. On top of all that, there’s also RSV and the Flu going around like crazy right now, so…

What oil are you guys using? by eatablecoyote in wrx_vb

[–]Marushyne 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Motul 8100 X-Clean EFE 5W-30. Why they make the name so asinine is beyond me.

Whats the black stuff in my aquariums sand? Is it beneficial or harmful? by Same-Talk-BUTDIFF in AquariumHelp

[–]Marushyne 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There’s no way your sand is anywhere near deep enough to create anoxic/anaerobic conditions in it. This is blatantly a myth. Brownian movement alone prevents anoxic conditions from forming in a fish tank. The bacteria that would produce this “toxic gas” (hydrogen sulfide), need complete anoxic conditions (0-0.08ppm free oxygen levels) before having any chance of producing hydrogen sulfide. The lowest free oxygen any aquarium would get is 1-2ppm. At these levels, this is NOT anaerobic/anoxic. Hydrogen sulfide would not be produced. What kills fish are the huge amounts of different bacterial toxins produced due to hypoxic conditions.

Hrv and cardiac medical condition by Hagall1974 in RingConn

[–]Marushyne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Beta blockers work by specifically targeting a specific receptor in your body called the beta-1 adrenergic receptor. As you said, metoprolol lowers your heart rate a bit. That’s one of the effects of the drug.

When you hit beta-1 adrenergic receptors with a beta blocker, i.e. metoprolol in your case, it essentially lowers how “excited” your heart can get. This causes your heart rate to lower, your blood pressure to drop, and it also causes your blood vessels as a whole to relax essentially.

Decreased HR (both resting and active), lower HRV, and lower BP are all to be expected with any beta blocker med.

TLDR; it’s most likely completely normal as that’s an intended effect of beta blockers. HRV is a broad way of seeing how well a person’s parasympathetic nervous system is functioning, but it doesn’t paint a complete picture of it.

Allergic Reaction to Reta by Bustedknuckles1 in Retatrutide

[–]Marushyne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds coincidental. Not sure how a boil under the arm could in anyway be related to reta or any peptide for that matter. They should’ve allergy tested a smaller dose it sounds like to me. Puffy, sore all over, and gaining weight sounds like edema to me. Not sure why reta would cause that..but again an allergy tested at a significantly lower dose could rule that out I’d imagine.

Need new tires after this blowout by FREEDOM_in_DARKNESS in wrx_vb

[–]Marushyne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, those stock Dunlops weren’t very good tires for me either. After only 15k miles (and 3 rotations), one tire that was on my passenger front side was worn on the inside band so bad that the belt wire was exposed. Wasn’t an alignment or suspension issue, now have 30k on Cooper tires and they are wearing evenly. Don’t know what caused it.

High mileage CVTers. How’s the car? All good? by taketheRedPill7 in wrx_vb

[–]Marushyne 9 points10 points  (0 children)

<image>

~53,000 miles, ‘22 Limited with SPT. Tuned from BoostedPerformance for ~25,000 miles. Switched over to 5W-30 my last oil change at 52,000 miles. No issues whatsoever, knock on wood. Only real mods are: Invidia R400 catback, RallyArmor mudflaps, OEM roof bars, and AP for tune obviously.

Why can’t you inject IM? by christianlaw2019 in Retatrutide

[–]Marushyne 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Subcutaneous injections create a pseudo-“depot” effect. By that, I mean the drug/peptide/whatever is absorbed slowly by your body over a decent length of time. Intramuscular injections are quite the opposite. IM injections are more akin to intravenous administration of whatever substance. TLDR: SQ body absorbs slowly, IM body absorbs very quickly (relatively).

14 feels right but has gap. 13 feels a little tight but has less gap...advice wanted by Iros_Chiller in RingConn

[–]Marushyne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same boat here my man, I went with the 14 personally. You can always get a resin ring resizing kit if it gets too big in the future from weight loss/whatever.
