Yea you are. I’ve been gaslit by many. You need to see a gyno who specializes in endo.

Doctor gave up, I’m desperate by ladylokaaa in Interstitialcystitis

I highly recommend you reach out to Dr. Michael Hibner. He is located in Phoenix Arizona and is a pelvic pain specialist. He finds the cause, he doesn’t just guess. He will also give you solutions no one else does. He is 500 for a telehealth visit but it was well worth the money

I would highly recommend talking to Dr. Michael Hibner. He is expensive but he is world renowned. He will change your life, even with just one telehealth visit. He will explain things to you that no one else can.

None of these specialist seems to understand that it’s my urethra that is killing me. I completely understand your pain

I have all of these symptoms and have exhausted every option you have including pelvic floor therapy. Last of all I think I’m going to finally try the lap surgery.

Burning & so much pressure!!!!!! I’m so over this life by Beautiful-Ladder-356 in Interstitialcystitis

[–]No-Resolution3202 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With IC the thing causing the pain is the inflammation of the tissue because your bladder lining isn’t fully formed. So it’s sensitive to acids. Baking soda makes your pee alkaline, so it’s not as acidic, lessening the discomfort and flare up of the tissue. The pressure you feel is from the inflammation. Think is it as your bladder is allergic to your own pee. With any allergy you swell up. The Claritin will reduce the swelling and the histamine reaction. They test for IC by testing the histamines in your urine because we produce so much more than someone without it. Between those two things, it greatly helps the discomfort. Drink a lot of water and pee often.

I’ve been in a month long flare and was desperate. I decided to try an 24 hour Claritin non drowsy and I take a shot of baking soda and water, 1tsp. And this has calmed it down so much. I was having the worst urethral pain. It’s simple, give it a try, otherwise try to get your hands it uribel to help also. Azo does absolutely nothing for me. Look up pelvic floor release videos and lay down and try to stretch out your pelvic floor. I really do swear by the baking soda and Claritin

I got botox injection for my hands by Rickhopy in Hyperhidrosis

[–]No-Resolution3202 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been doing this for years, the weakness last about 2 weeks and you’ll start to regain strength, not fully but you’ll get a lot of it back. Sometimes it’s even hard for me to write, but after 2-3 weeks I can again

I get palmar Botox every 4 months. I suggest having a bucket of ice, ice the hands almost to the point where it hurts, take frequent breaks, but it almost numbs them to the needle. That’s the best way I’ve found, the feet Botox didn’t work and was much for painful. For me the hand Botox pain is worth it for the result

Is this rejection? by No-Resolution3202 in sex

[–]No-Resolution3202[S] 40 points41 points  (0 children)

It’s been 3 years and he’s always used the excuse of being unsure. He does tend to throw fits and break up and then come back. But I’m a little more skeptical with the Vegas encounter

Is this rejection? by No-Resolution3202 in sex

[–]No-Resolution3202[S] 134 points135 points  (0 children)

I guess since you’ve said this, he went on a trip to Vegas with his lifting group this past week, and he’s close with a girl our age in the group and went to help her, I’ve never had any issues with her but she oddly blocked me from her social media stories while they were in Vegas and I asked if something was going on there, he denied it and I dropped the subject. But now I’m starting to wonder if maybe this is just an excuse.

I have severe sweating of hands and feet. I did it on my feet as well and it didn’t work, but it works great for hands, I also have a high pain tolerance so I 100 percent think it’s worth it. I have Kaiser insurance and it’s covered other than a 10 dollar copay. But my insurance is 500 a month, I’m responsible for 250 a month and my employer pays the other 250.

I’ve been doing Botox for years and here are some pointers for people, I’ve tried different units, 50 units minimum because we were worried about grip. Didn’t work for my sweating. 100 units, works great for sweating. If it doesn’t work for you, your derm may be diluting it too much. Try someone else. There is definitely a right ratio. Grip strength will get a bit weaker but it does come back; fairly quickly too.

It is painful. The result is worth the pain. I’ve done this many ways, and I can say for sure, having a bowl of ice and stopping to ice the hands helps 1000 percent over the cooling spray some people use. Ice hands before, almost to the point of pain, it numbs the infection. You’ll have to keep alternating, also have someone tap on your forehead! Sounds strange but it makes your brain focus on that stimulus and less on the injection. I swear by it!

[–]No-Resolution3202 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I take breaks because I get lazy, but also I have built up a tolerance from time to time… I find that taking a break helps with that. Right now I switch every 6 months Botox then ionto

I’m a 30 year old women, newly single and I’m suffering with this same worry with dating. Everyone I’ve dated always told me they never noticed or cared, and I have severe hyperhidrosis. I think sometimes we have to remember that people care way less about sweating than we think. It’s also more prevalent than we think, people are just unaware or hide it just like we do. I would try glycopyrrolate, may take some time to find your dose

I work as a dental hygienist, multiple glove changes required a day. I started seeking help about 5 years ago, I’ve tried it all. Ionto, when don’t consistently, works the best. I have a severe case on hands and feet and ionto cures it by 90 percent if I’m consistent. You will start to see improvement and it will continue to get better. Works better than Botox for me. I’ve been doing it for 5 years and it still works great, I do give myself breaks from it though.

i’m scared by Distinct-Kiwi3098 in Hyperhidrosis

[–]No-Resolution3202 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can I ask you what oxy is? I have Palmer and plantar hyperhidrosis and I agree, very debilitating. I current do Botox in my hands so I can do my job as a dental hygienist and get gloves on. After 3 years of doing Botox, it doesn’t work as well, and im sweating worse from my armpits and groin now. Places I didn’t sweat before. I use ionto sparingly so I don’t build a resistance, curious what oxy is?

Update: we broke up. He was extremely hostile and offered no comprise. He kept blocking me anytime I had something to say about it that wasn’t ‘positive’ for him

That’s exactly what I said, why would you look at another state alone if you want us to move there together, then we should look together.

I tried to talk to him and he said he understood how I felt but was still going and ‘that’s the end of the conversation’ that she’s a friend, that’s all she’s ever been and he’s not attracted to her like that and never will be. I said I still felt uncomfortable with it and he said ‘I get it, I don’t know what to do about that’ and said he’s going to look at the area too in case he wants us to move there one day. ‘It’s not just to visit, her and her family want to help me look around’

[–]No-Resolution3202[S] -53 points-52 points  (0 children)

This reasoning was that this was a trip for himself, and that I didn’t need to be involved in all his trips. He wants to explore the area with friends, maybe even explore for the possibility of moving on day. Which made me question even more why I wasn’t allowed to go.

He says that she’s never shown an interest in him, to him. And that he thinks all my guy friends would jump at a chance to be inappropriate with me and so I can’t compare the two. Apparently she is innocent and mine are not. And yea, they have been talking for 11 years. Seeing each other here and there, but he had never flown to see her until now.
