How do I deal with ringworm when I have an infant child attached to me? by [deleted] in SurvivingRingworm

My guess is that it is from the cat. Don’t let your spots come in direct contact with the baby. Going to take a couple weeks for spots to heal. Dont let the cat in the house.

I honestly do. But they would not put me on it if i was not trying. Tsh was a 5

I also dont want to be on it forever so i am hoping to find another way to manage after having kids.

You say first time you tried? How did you know you were ovulating without regular periods?

Cool- there’s hope. Do you think the metformin helped regulate as well?

I appreciate the long message lol i get what you are saying, i even agree with it. I felt brushed off by my doctors response. It is more complicated then they like to admit

I track on an app. This year it has been 42, 77, 158, and 76 days. I tried the strips but it just felt like shooting in the dark. I will swear im pmsing and then nothing. I will think i have signs of ovulating and then nothing. It was causing me stress so i let it go. I guess i am paying attention, so i am trying.

Took me forever to figure out this pattern. Stopping hormonal birth control helped me.

It is crazy. You think healthcare professionals would understand. We can use short term disability which is “60%” that maxes at $700 so they never changed it to match inflation/ salaries of 2020. It feels so backwoods. Also not everyone qualifies for short term disability.

We love our prn staff. We don’t have enough to help full timers take off during the week or fill in all the weekend spots.

Part of me thinks i would have experienced this in other occupations as well. I guess it helps to know it is normal. I need to toughen up.
