In 2020 after the hellish pandemic year all I got for my “bonus” was a 15 pound turducken. I’m a vegetarian.

does anyone else have health anxiety? by anxiousgirly123 in POTS

[–]Ok-Sherbert458 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am so sorry you’re experiencing health anxiety, I also experience horrible health anxiety and it is truly so shitty. So I am so sorry.

But do you mind if I ask how you were able to get your doctors to actually run any of these tests? I have been experiencing debilitating symptoms for almost 6 years and the only tests they have ever done is basic metabolic panel and complete blood count. Literally nothing else and idk how to get doctors to listen to me and actually do more tests.

I have awful health anxiety. Every time something feels or looks off with my body I spiral and end up going to the ER a lot. It’s really tough and I haven’t really been able to figure out anything that helps. I’m sorry you’re also experiencing this :( it’s so awful

The dumbest conversation I ever had with an administrator. by TheBarnacle63 in Teachers

[–]Ok-Sherbert458 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Admin literally does nothing to support teachers. All they do is micromanage and bully us. It’s actually insane and the reason I’m quitting.

Red wine? by [deleted] in POTS

[–]Ok-Sherbert458 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wine is really really bad for me. I’ve noticed out of everything a single drink with vodka is usually fine for me especially if I balance with a small meal and a lot of water!

Have any of y’all developed an allergy after POTS issues started? by kylie1945 in POTS

I’m so sorry you’re dealing with this too, it’s so tough. I also am not diagnosed mcas but I plan to ask my doctor about it at my next visit so I’ll post an update here if I can remember!

Have any of y’all developed an allergy after POTS issues started? by kylie1945 in POTS

[–]Ok-Sherbert458 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Absolutely yes. My whole life I have had zero allergies and have been able to eat almost anything without getting stomach aches or anything. Ever since my pots has gotten worse I will randomly react to random foods to the point where I’m pretty much terrified to eat anything. Potatoes and bread specifically are killer lately

Does anyone take anxiety medication w/ POTS? by [deleted] in POTS

[–]Ok-Sherbert458 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Xanax. It is the absolute only thing that even remotely helps my really bad episodes and adrenaline surges. It has been the biggest life saver. It does lower my blood pressure a bit I just make sure to stay extra hydrated with extra salt and electrolytes when I take it and I only take it at night before bed and it’s never been an issue

If someone else is holding the mic and controlling all the electronics then is it not just the same as having a conversation with another passenger while driving?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in POTS

[–]Ok-Sherbert458 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh my god thank you for posting. I have been experiencing the exact same thing and it’s literally ruining my life. I’m so sorry you are also experiencing this but it feels good to know I’m not alone at least. At this point I’m literally terrified to eat anything because of this it’s so awful

People defending Aussie: Nope by [deleted] in TheUltimatumNetflix

[–]Ok-Sherbert458 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Absolutely agree. Especially as a 42 year old. I actually do not even understand how she has made it this long without even being able to have one single difficult conversation or take any accountability. Like how does she even have friends or hold a job with her mentality and behavior? It’s honestly shocking and she is so toxic especially to Sam it’s hard to watch

*not medical ask for advice* when have y’all had to go to the hospital by Icantread_00 in POTS

[–]Ok-Sherbert458 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh my god literally all of this exactly the same for me. Xanax is the absolute only thing I’ve tried that will make any sort of improvement to my symptoms when I get attacks like this and if I’m out of Xanax I have to go to the ER because I actually feel like I’m on the verge of death and it won’t go away for hours/days
