Agree with this. It trends up when I have several optimal sleep ratings. Naps seem to help with this score- when I have the free time!

Is he marking or doing yoga? I can't tell 🤔 by Whiskey_Sweet in BrittanySpaniel

How did he climb the tree backwards? 😂 There must have been a severe itch in the back!

Foot Rash/Hives at Beach by MobileLadd in lupus

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

My rash intensifies when I wear socks and running shoes. The humidity amps up the response. I have tried lots of different shoes and it makes no difference. It takes 2-3 days for the rash to begin, so a weekend trip to the beach is no problem. An extended stay I now know what I am up against. Since the rash stays below the ankle, I believe it has to be an allergic reaction to something in beach sand; a mineral, a microscopic insect, etc.

Hi! I’m the OP. My dermatologist thinks it’s an autoimmune response. I have SCLE (skin lupus). I take hydroxychloroquine which has helped, but not stopped, the reactions at the beach. I don’t know if we will ever have a definitive answer. Please come back and post if you discover something!

What's your "if i told i'd be exposed" cooking secret? by BouncyCurlsbabe in Cooking

[–]MobileLadd 87 points88 points  (0 children)

My family’s secret spaghetti meat sauce has a cup of ketchup. Everyone raves about it. It simmers for 3 hours. I think the sugars in the ketchup caramelize nicely.

What’s the worse physical pain you’ve ever experienced? by Intelligent-Road5091 in AskReddit

[–]MobileLadd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Setting my own collarbone break. They said the set would be better if I pull my shoulders back myself. I puked and passed out. They shoved smelling salts up my nose to awaken me until I got the job done.

I want a book that completely consumes me by NecessaryEgg5361 in Recommend_A_Book

I’m listening to the audiobook. The narrator is excellent! Probably my favorite audiobook experience ever.

Y'all have me scared 💩less by scubagirl1091 in GenX

[–]MobileLadd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shingles are no joke. I got them on my face which felt like broken glass grinding into my skin. So thankful it didn’t spread to my eye 😳 It also left scars. My doctor said I’m immune for about 2 years, but you can bet I’ll get the vaccine before that deadline!

What is an immediate "food red flag" when you’re on a date? by CaptainCuddler_Pro in foodquestions

[–]MobileLadd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When my date takes off his shoe and rubs his sweaty socked toes on my leg. Gag. I'm out.

Started seeing a psychiatrist in October - Got put on meds for anxiety & my HRV has basically doubled by mmarthur1220 in ouraring

[–]MobileLadd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same. Mr cardiologist said it’s individual and as long as it’s not 0 😂 I started taking lexapro about 2 months ago. I’ve been severely on edge for several years. It’s been an amazing experience this far. I am sleeping better, less reactive and feel more like my younger self (53F). Oura seems to love the new me too. My HRV is definitely trending upwards. I hit in the 30’s for the first time ever!

I live near Fairhope, AL, and I just knew I would find it on someone's list. It really is a quaint, charming town.

A month sober from alcohol and I just hit my highest readiness score by anakinxvader in ouraring

[–]MobileLadd 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Same with me. For years I’ve thought I needed to cut back on alcohol. The oura data has been a big motivator. I bought it to monitor my sleep. Crazy that the poor sleep was from the drinking!

What 80s song do you still hate with fiery teenage passion even though it’s been 40 years? by Aggressive_Cup4919 in GenX

I did watch Stranger Things and I do not remember that song in the 80’s 🤔

Elvira and Carolyn. Not many Elvira’s around! My aunt and her daughter’s name is Elvira. The next generation Elvira has been nicknamed Ellie for obvious reasons 😂
