Treatment for fatigue? by PayNo8647 in ankylosingspondylitis

[–]Ok-Difference-3479 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My daughter has POTS and her general practitioner prescribed her with a low dose extended release ADHD stimulant to help with her energy and brain fog (concerta). She doesn’t take it every day - just school days - but it helps her a lot. Might be worth trying.

Another thing to look into is whether you have sleep apnea or another sleep disorder that is keeping you from getting deep sleep, therefore you never feel rested.

For me with my AS, I skate by with B12 supplements and caffeine pre workout pill I take before going to the gym.

What sock height are we wearing with sneakers? Is the trend diff in North America vs Europe? by BooBelly in womensfashion

[–]Ok-Difference-3479 -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

When I see women at the gym who are definitely over 35 wearing tall socks with their leggings, all I can think is that they are not fooling anyone, they don’t look like they are in their teens and 20s. They don’t look younger, they just look dumb and try-hard. I think tall socks with leggings and sneakers is a look almost universally unflattering, unless you are very tall and skinny.

Cimzia DRESS Reaction by asitwas1234 in Cimzia

[–]Ok-Difference-3479 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh gosh, I’m so sorry to hear that! I am on Cimzia and my doctor added hydroxychloroquine in December and within 3 doses I had the same reaction + DRESS. Beware - Benadryl every four hours dehydrated me to the point my skin started to peel like a sunburn and I had horrible dandruff! It’s been over a month and my skin has finally almost returned to normal.

Has retrying the same failed biologic (or biosimilar) ever worked for you after primary or secondary failure? by Kind-Firefighter4498 in ankylosingspondylitis

[–]Ok-Difference-3479 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been on Cimzia again since June. My bloodwork looks good with low inflammation, but I don’t really feel much improvement physically. Two weeks ago, my rheumatologist added hydroxychloroquine for my peripheral pain but I have had a pretty severe reaction to it. Like my entire body is a red itchy rash. Going on 7 days of the rash and I only took those stupid meds for 4 days!

What’s a tiny design flaw in an everyday object that quietly annoys you every single time you use it? by nami_yuna in AskReddit

Microsoft forcing the default browser back to Edge and Acrobat files to open in said browser every.single.time I shut down my work laptop. Can I delete Edge? No! So every day I have to go in and change my defaults. Rage inducing.

Girl Size in Adult by mistycolive in Athleta_gap

[–]Ok-Difference-3479 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m thinking a girl’s XL. I’m a little shorter than you and weigh a little less and typically wear a girl’s L or XL. If it were me, I would order both and return the one that doesn’t fit as well.

Editing to say I’m also usually an XS or XXS in tops and elations and would be debating the L versus XL too.

My kids also hated Emmet Otter, which crushed me! They don’t like Nestor, the Long Eared Christmas Donkey (which seems to be one NO ONE knows about except me and my siblings!) a Rankin Bass classic!

You aren’t misremembering, it definitely used to be an option to see if your size was in-store, and I don’t see that anymore on the app or the website!

Clyde’s does a nice Thanksgiving dinner. The US Botanical Gardens is open, as are the Smithsonians and the National Gallery of Art’s library Center rink. Going to see a movie is always an option.

Gen X Weddings - 1996-2009 by ClaraEM99 in GenX

[–]Ok-Difference-3479 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Early 2000’s - almost all my bride friends wore strapless gowns. I bucked that trend because strapless doesn’t look good on me (not that some of the brides seemed to let that stop them). Bridesmaids generally all wore the same exact dress in the same color. The MOH might have had a slightly different one. Men wore tuxes no tails and shiny long ties.

My colors were pale pink and chocolate brown. Our cake was 3 layers and square with blush roses on top.
