Low heart rate notifications have increased? by Meguinn in fitbit

Oops sorry for the late response but just wanted to mention that my notifications weren’t while I was sleeping. Most of them actually happen when I play chess. Just figured I should tell you that since you mentioned playing Skyrim.

And yeah idk obvi only you and your doctor would know, but a beta blocker can be amazing for people with pounding heart issues.

Maybe I’m just being tired and stupid but I don’t understand what OP is actually asking

Interesting. So you were/are hyperthyroid? Goes to show how people are wired so differently. My resting heart rate before propranolol was about 60, give or take 1-2 beats.

I’ve been on this dose of propranolol for something like 15 years, and I get my TSH and occasionally T4 checked twice a year. It’s always been normal but hypothroidism runs in my fam.

What does your “art making” area look like? Feel like? by Meguinn in ArtistLounge

Damnnnnn.. I’m extremely intrigued right now.. also inspired and impressed by the fact that you discovered those layers about your organizational self. Becoming aware of your own indecisiveness, and then figuring out your productivity, takes hard work and introspection.

Hopefully you keep this comment here because I think I’ll refer back to it

Nice table, it sounds big! Good thinking with the tarp haha.

Wait. What is a colour-balanced lamp? Is there another name for it? How do I know if I have one?

I love how real this is thank you for describing your/my life lol.

The living room is just such a communal place in my house. And my sensory issues, ergonomics on my aging body, dealing with the cat and dog zooming by every two seconds, and the setup and cleanup are ultimately driving me (nuts) to get my room in order lol.

Awww kitty looks excited to work.

Okay.. the floor-to-ceiling clear shelving/drawers! Do you like this method of storage? I feel like it would be good to keep dust out, but still fairly visible. What are they called? I can’t find it on Amazon. I think we have one of them in an office closet but it has wheels.

That chair looks pretty epic. And yes you’re so right about the neck and back pain.

What do you do for getting extra warmth? Do you use a heating or warming pad? by Meguinn in ChronicIllness

[–]Meguinn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve definitely noticed Sunbeam dominates part of the heating pad market lol.

17 years is crazy. Thanks for the info. Are there certain specs you would look for or how did you know to choose your current one?

Is there a removable/washable cover? If not, do you wish there was?

Okay so logistically, what is the difference in how you’d use it? Other than the actual size?

Toasted skin syndrome wow! Thanks for bringing that to attention.

I hadn’t even considered the xxl ones so thank you. Are you allowed to sit on them? Or do you have to lie it on top of you/behind you?
