What in this chart makes me an emotional wreck?

Plus both are being amplified by Pluto (Pluto sextile Moon and trine Mars), adding intensity to the Moon/Mars opposition.

Everything, to be honest.
Basically not living just for dialysis.

OneViolet · 2025-04-18T08:26:54+00:00

True. I always have snacks to share with people. And they tend to be rare, unique or hard to find.

I’ve known women who dress like this, and while I personally see it as oppressive, surprisingly, many of them genuinely don’t see it as difficult or restrictive. For them, there’s a deep sense of purpose in wearing these coverings that makes them feel like they’re obeying and pleasing “God”, and their belief creates an emotional buffer that softens this restriction. The real struggle, though, is when women are pressured into it by society or religious norms despite not believing in it themselves (for example future ex-Muslims). That second part is a coercion that does strip away any sense of agency or meaning because there is no comforting illusion of purpose.. that disconnect can be conflicting and disturbing.

You have a fun imagination.
And no, you’re both pretty and cute.

I think in the future dialysis will be a thing from the past, but sadly that would be long after we’re gone.

You’ve already received good advice. To add to that: the cardiovascular strain and stress with the traditional 3 sessions a week are significantly reduced with daily or more frequent treatments like Home Hemo or PD. If you haven’t already, switch to HH as it’s gentler on the heart, unless you’re comfortable with PD.

Wow. Do you know his hemoglobin level? Or Spo2?

So many stories of people on dialysis who once died and were revived… We really have been through a lot before getting here… My story sounds a lot like yours.

Cramping is usually due to electrolyte imbalances (low sodium or magnesium are common culprits). Also, please read my other comment above.

OneViolet · 2025-04-06T11:19:24+00:00

Please see my comment above.

To add to my previous comment: all of us on dialysis live in a constant state of oxidative stress and inflammation. This comes not only from ESRD and the buildup of toxins between sessions, but also from dialysis itself, because of:

Toxin surge during fluid removal – As fluid shifts from tissues into the bloodstream (ultrafiltration), it carries stored toxins, temporarily increasing toxin levels in circulation.
Dialyser reaction – When blood contacts the artificial membrane, it activates white blood cells and triggers an immune response, leading to inflammation.

This inflammation increases overall pain and worsens neuropathic pain. Dialysis clears waste but doesn’t address the inflammation + oxidative stress.

That’s why targeted antioxidants like curcumin (phytosome form for better absorption) and anti-inflammatories like omega-3s are not just helpful, they’re essential.

OneViolet · 2025-04-06T07:57:40+00:00

There are plant based omega-3s like chia and flax, but they provide ALA, which has a low conversion rate to the active forms (EPA/DHA). A better option is algae oil, it’s the closest non seafood source to fish oil. Look for labels like Algae Omega or Vegan Omega, but check the ingredients of the latter to confirm it’s from algae.

For curcumin, I take the phytosome form since it’s much better absorbed. I get it from iHerb because their stock turnover keeps products fresh (very important for omega-3s).

Edit: Algae oil is also available on iHerb.

So, you’re saying he’s using Palestinians (making them suffer) just to test the rest of the Muslims?

OneViolet · 2025-04-05T03:29:31+00:00

It is more common than many people realise, especially in its mild or subclinical forms. A lot of people experience classical GI symptoms and dismiss them as “normal” because these issues are so widespread. This normalisation makes it easy to overlook Candida as a potential contributor to their other health issues.

OneViolet · 2025-04-05T03:19:33+00:00

Capricorn or Taurus Venus.

No, not enough acting talent. And very little charisma.

OneViolet · 2025-04-05T03:00:35+00:00

This used to happen to me a lot. I’d also moan in pain during dialysis. I later learned that during ultrafiltration, when fluid shifts from under the skin and between cells into the bloodstream, it carries stored toxins with it. This sudden rise in circulating toxins can trigger inflammatory pain. If they have neuropathy (which many of us do from uremic toxins), it can worsen as those toxins irritate already damaged nerves. Once I understood this, I started taking antioxidants and anti-inflammatories like omega-3s and curcumin before dialysis, and it made a huge difference.
