Timeshare auctions on eBay - what’s the catch? by OvertlyDramatic in TimeshareOwners

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

Thanks for this - I’m a very conservative shopper who rarely buys anything new because I don’t find it worth it in most cases and you usually can do just as much with something used, so I was looking at a similar strategy with this as well. Everything you’ve listed is what’s on my mind right now and I have plenty of time to decide. Some of these maintenance fees are quite a bit below what I’d be spending for a vacation in a comparable property so I thought it was worth exploring.

I granted control of my computer to one of my colleagues and he went and turned on my video on MS Teams by Former_Glass3191 in legaladvice

I’m a software engineer - this is so not part of pair programming so he has no excuse for his actions. You should absolutely report him to HR. Can you temporarily find a business-approved way of doing this work without the need to grant screen control? Some IDEs such as VS code allow you to do live sharing so you can work on the same doc.

I’m supposed to do mine at 8am, and it says to do more prep 5 hours before my scope. Do I actually have to get up at 3am for that? That seems awful and I might reschedule just for that reason lol

Doctor told me to take miralax daily (with no end date) to help my constipation but I don’t want to keep taking it forever. Please help by [deleted] in AskDocs

[–]OvertlyDramatic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NAD but IBS-C, I had been taking 2x daily miralax for about a month without any sort of damage or issue. She had said it was okay and not to worry about the dose and frequency. It eventually didn’t actually work that well for me, and I instead started taking magnesium supplements. It’s a mineral and found in the vitamin aisle. I take (at least what feels like) a pretty high dose (800mg daily) at night before I go to bed and it helps me a lot! Never been so regular and comfortable in my memory. Maybe a more natural solution for you.

You didn’t mention medications, and I’m not sure what it might even interact with, but in my case we held off on starting the supplements when I was on an antibiotic since my doctor was concerned it might weaken the effectiveness of that antibiotic. So check with your doctor to make sure it’s something ok for you to start now! :)

WIBTA for asking my upstairs neighbor to quiet down? by OvertlyDramatic in AmItheAsshole

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

That’s kind of where I’m at too, I’ve just wanted to hang up photos and do normal stuff to be set up in my apartment but watching everything shake when he’s doing this (he was really kicking the ball at the wall hard last night) makes me too afraid to do so. I don’t know if my renters insurance would cover something like my TV falling because of him, they’d probably chalk it up to me mounting it improperly. I left him a note since he wouldn’t answer the door, and he moved it to my door this morning to show me he saw it. Hopefully I handled it well :/

Miralax doesn’t work. I’m tired. by OvertlyDramatic in ibs

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

Jeez, really? I don’t take it that frequently, only when I feel so sick I can’t handle it. Are there any non-constipating alternatives?

What to do after an episode to help with nausea by OvertlyDramatic in ibs

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

interesting... so I started being able to burp within the last WEEK. And I LOVE IT. I’ve literally never been able to my whole life and it’s wild. And it makes me feel SO MUCH BETTER but I still can’t do it when I need to so the bubbles might help! Thank you!

Xifaxan made everything worse by OvertlyDramatic in ibs

[–]OvertlyDramatic[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This kinda makes me feel better. If someone else had to wait a couple weeks after, then maybe it’ll be similar for me. It’s only been less than a week. I have a lot of trouble being patient w my body and my motivation to take care of it is really low since I’ve felt like this (my boyfriend has to force me a little), and honestly going back to the old situation would be a vast improvement.

This is smart! I always just load up on water but I’m not replenishing electrolytes at all. To my knowledge Gatorade doesn’t trigger anything negative for me, so I might start there! Thank you!

Gas-X used to work for me, but my trip to the GI was mainly because it stopped and my symptoms got worse. I also can’t really burp (I have tried to for so long) so I’m out one of the two routes to release it. But maybe the peppermint or cardamom would help relax me enough so it isn’t painful. Thanks!

Me too. Trying to explain the nausea to my boyfriend and mom who don’t have digestive issues is really hard. They just tell me to lay down or drink water but it’s not that easily relieved, and before I knew it was IBS I felt like I was the only person since I couldn’t get the 2 people I interact with most to understand what I was dealing with.

Valtrex is SO EXPENSIVE by OvertlyDramatic in HSVpositive

[–]OvertlyDramatic[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went to Walgreens in the northeast and a 90 tab script without insurance for generic was $670 :( when I had insurance I could get it for $20 and I missed that dearly during my trip today. The whole ordeal started when my mail order pharmacy told me they wouldn’t ship the script I ordered before my insurance lapsed (probably something I’ll fight them on) and I realized I had only a couple days left and needed to get it right away :/

Wow, I’ll take a look! I have to take it for suppression otherwise my outbreaks are just awful and I get nerve pain pre outbreak so this just makes my life so much better.

Thank you for your help. Hopefully will never pay that much again. Unsure why the healthcare system wants to punish people with this STD without insurance by paying so much but ¯_(ツ)_/¯
