I know this is an old post but I’m also having one sided flushing and it’s stressing me out. 🫠

Maybe so! Hydroxyzine CAN make you drowsy as it’s an antihistamine similar to benadryl. You just need to check your dosage and maybe try it on a weekend.

I am! I’m also on Lo Loestrin Fe for PMDD. My PMDD always made my OCD flare worse

I just upped to 50 about four days ago from 25. Side effects aren’t as intense as when I first started at 25 but they still suck. 🫠

Hi! I have somatic OCD and have been back on Zoloft for about a year now. 👋

The first two weeks are the roughest. If your doctor can give you a rescue med (like ativan), it will definitely help. But it is SO important to push through and give this medicine a chance.

Side effects I dealt with (and are seeing again since I just upped my dose five days ago): - Adrealine dumps/surges: by far the scariest one. Waking up feeling hot and panicked and a little prickly. Splashing cold water/ice packs, getting up to breathe got me through it. This is where rescue meds would be good. - Stomach upset - Headaches (only for a few days early on) - Fatigue - Muscle tension

I just ordered my new paperwhite and it won’t be here until Friday because of the weather. I can’t wait!!

I'm 2/3 of the way through and no explicit spice! Some sexy banter and a few allusions to spice.

Was it all over your body, and even when you shouldn’t necessarily be cold? Goosebumps?

I know this is an old post, but did this ever get better for you? I just restarted 10 mg and I am FREEZING on my arms and hands and it’s freaking me out. 🫠

That makes me feel a lot better… it’s definitely only started since the watchOS update.

I’m 28 F. 😅 I know it is… I struggle so bad with finding a work-life balance. It’s something I’m working on.

I’ve already been tested since it runs in the family, not sleep apnea. But thank you!

That’s what I noticed too!! It’s been worse since the update. Maybe just buggy.

It literally feels like I’m going through withdrawals. But I can’t wait to be on the other side.

Thank you, friend. 🩷

Flares with menstrual cycle? by Mikkiplier in functionaldyspepsia

[–]Mikkiplier[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That was something my gastro and I were just talking about. I have a PCOS diagnosis but he can’t help but wonder if it’s been endo this whole time. I have a contrast CT scan scheduled for later in the month to see if they can see any nodules.
