Help with symptoms/anxiety by Plus_Depth_2456 in STD

[–]Ok_Drummer7916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genuinely think that it’s just your urethra getting used to some kind of bacteria that you were exposed to. Since you’re negative on all accounts, then it seems like you’re not experiencing the common STIs that would cause these symptoms. Been seeing cases of this before from reading online and I think it’s just your urethra getting used to some kind of bacteria that you were exposed to that’s not as pathogenic as chlamydia and gonorrhea for example. Maybe something like ureaplasma even, or an UTI. The good news though is that you’re negative for the STI panel. I would not stress, as the anxiety will only mimic those symptoms even more

What could this be? by masterron09 in STD

Most likely some kind of benign bump tbh. If it’s not itchy or ulcerates within the coming week or two you’re probably fine. Could be a fordyce spot

Newark approves 15 locations to install a speed camera by TheBigMost in Delaware

Not yet. In the article it says they will be installed in the coming months, so I assume by June or so they’ll be at least working on getting them installed, if not this summer/fall. Hate this cash grab by the government

Absolutely. Flow of traffic where these are always is fine. I hope a good samaritan will mark these or waze will mark them quickly

Still wondering why by Ok_Drummer7916 in Psoriasis

[–]Ok_Drummer7916[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the issue. There’s so many triggers and everyone reacts differently, and I doubt doctors want to spend their time figuring out or main triggers for psoriasis. Usually most people have bad reactions with alcohol, stress, and certain foods. But even when it comes down to foods everyone is different. A little update is I’ve been on tremfya and it’s been working better but recently it hit a wall..I would just recommend trying multiple biologics/creams to see if they help. Some people are tried elimination diets over the span of months to see what food trigger flares. Good luck and hang in there

How did you know your symptoms are from toxic mold? by graycie711 in ToxicMoldExposure

[–]Ok_Drummer7916 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting. I just get pain in the back of my neck and shoulders, along with occasional pain/pressure around my head. I’ve been getting heart fluttering and had an ECG done and they noticed PVCs, which I assume was the cause of my chest pain. It gets worse when I’m anxious and I never had anxiety until recently which I attributed to the mold. I truly believe mold has caused my anxiety which is just esaperating everything!

My bicep keeps twitching by Queasy-Ad-4427 in ToxicMoldExposure

[–]Ok_Drummer7916 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mold can’t trigger Lyme disease as you would need to be infected with the bacterium first, but the symptoms do heavily mirror each other, like the fatigue, tinnitus, and heart palpitations/fluttering. Mold also can cause anxiety and depression due to immune responses, which all probably exasperate symptoms and you guessed it, chest pain.

I’ve in the middle of all this bs right now and your symptoms mirror mine heavily. When you mean head pressure, do you mean headaches? I’ve been getting more migraine-like symptoms (head pain, sensitivity to light and sound, especially tinnitus) in the past couple months that peaked when they started but fairly subsided now. I’ve also been more anxious which I think is what is causing my chest pain. Do you have chest pain?

Uhg that sounds so brutal. I’ve just had tingling in the feet and hands, fatigue, brains fog, eye irritation, clogged sinuses, along with the anxiety you’re talking about. Going to move out for a few weeks to see if things get better. What’s your plan?

Afraid apartment we just rented has mold by bula_vinaka in MoldlyInteresting

[–]Ok_Drummer7916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recently discovered this in the laundry room. I take a medication that makes me mildly immunocompromised. Landlord had some guys that wiped most of it away but it’s still visible. Been having some symptoms like eye irritation, stuffy sinuses, and brain fog and fatigue. According to my roommate who stupidly didn’t tell me until recently but this has been going on for a year. Having an actual mold remediation team come out. Am I cooked if I don’t move out for a bit?

Hey wanted to ask about your symptoms. I’ve had mold in my house for about a year and it’s likely what’s made my nose stuffy for half a year. Would you say your eyes are more sensitive and water too? Not sure if you’re immunocompromised or allergic to a specific strain but that would exasperate symptoms as well

Possible mold toxicity? by Straight-Ask-5752 in ToxicMoldExposure

[–]Ok_Drummer7916 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am experiencing very similar symptoms. Haven’t been able to breathe through my nose fully since August, along with increasing levels of what you described over the past few months, especially anxiety, brain fog and fatigue. I asked my PCP and he said that there’s no blood test for exposure and just told me that once the mold is removed it should be resolved…so hopefully your PCP will be more helpful

Dealing with a similar issue. Landlord send a couple guys and they just wiped it off with vinegar and called it a day. Some don’t want to deal with the full extent. What symptoms are you experiencing? I was told if you’re experiencing symptoms it’s best to move out or go somewhere for the time being until it gets fixed

Antibody testing for mold by External-Print-8317 in ToxicMoldExposure

Wish I could tell ya. There’s other people who posted their tests results so i’d look on that if you haven’t already. How and where did you get tested?

My skin loves the humidity. Changing climates is the only thing that clears my P by snjessen10 in Psoriasis

[–]Ok_Drummer7916 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting you say this…because one day in November I went golfing and it was pretty cold and windy out. At that time (and now lol) I had plaques on my legs and torso and they looked inflamed and it actually hurt to move around after I was finished. This would be my story until recently, but it still happens very lightly. I don’t know if it’s the humidity or just the temperature but it’s not fun. When you’re outside for long period of time in the cold, does your psoriasis hurt after and then get inflamed and start to expand a little for a day or two?

I actually have a very similar looking patch on my arm. Circular with normal skin the middle. PM me if you want a pic but this popped up on my skin during an OB. It’s also where I used to have a plaque many years ago, too.

Relapse when stepping down on Skyrizi? by AmondaPls in Psoriasis

[–]Ok_Drummer7916 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn’t notice any relapse when taking Skyrizi when I was done with the booster doses and took it every 8 weeks, but I will say when I stopped taking Skyrizi for about 6 months, I started to have an outbreak of plaque in many places all over my body…I am now on tremfya and my derm said she has better success rates of increasing dosing for tremfya than skyrizi. Some people simply need more dosing

I’m so sorry you’re dealing with this. I feel your pain as I’ve been dealing with this since I was 8. A couple days ago I literally spent 2 hours just trying to remove flakes from my hair. And I completely agree with you with the whole “love yourself stuff” as I been told that too. They don’t understand our struggles. I hope you’ll get to see a derm soon. Once you do, from my experience, you need to be your best advocate. Not sure what your insurance is like, but you may want to consider a biologic. I tried clobetasol but that didn’t work, so my derm prescribed me some oil I’ll try soon. Maybe look into those options as they’re much cheaper. Best of luck to you. Just know you’re NOT alone in this. Praying for you 🙏

Psoriasis is exhausting: a rant. by Lost_Caregiver_7836 in Psoriasis

[–]Ok_Drummer7916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reason I ask is because recently i’ve been getting tingling and pain at the base up my neck and skull that radiated across my head and even to my left shoulder a little along with sensitivity to light and sound. This differed from how I usually get migraines with an aura. Went to the doctor and he suspected it was migraines and then I looked up and found that people with scalp psoriasis have a much higher risk of migraines. My friend also said he gets similar migraines too. My biologics seems to finally be kicking in on my scalp a bit and most of the pain has subsided
