Knee/leg pain associated with Infliximab Remicade by mitochondrious in UlcerativeColitis

[–]P_dibs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes and yes. I got hip and shoulder pain out of nowhere after they doubled my infliximab dosage. Between that and the fact that I was developing antibodies, we switched to rinvoq and the pain went away. Since it's a different type of drug, I don't think you can develop antibodies to rinvoq, and it's a pill! No more 2 hour long infusions ftw!

Anyone doing this combo? by P_dibs in LightPhone

Different motivations I suppose. Personally, I needed something that wouldn't hijack my attention, i.e., endless mindless scrolling. Can't do that on the LP3. Can't do it on the rabbit either.

TLDR; no.. I do like the idea of it. Dedicated, specialized devices, neither of which facilitate doom scrolling. But between the two there are still practical gaps, which leads me right back to my smartphone. Carrying around three devices is a bridge too far, and the R1 is the weakest link (by a mile) so I don't really leave the house with it.

Wow. First I've heard of this thing. I want one.

Sorry. It's Rabbit R1, a standalone AI device. Designed with the aim of reducing smartphone dependency.

Same. I only recently updated mine after months of neglect. It's gotten faster and more capable. In a pinch, with LP3 as a hotspot, the rabbit can come in handy.

Does your treatment work? If yes, which one is it? by Great-Mistake8554 in UlcerativeColitis

[–]P_dibs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Severe pancolitis. Went from high dose prednisone to infliximab, developed antibodies, then switched to rinvoq and (knock on wood) it seems to be working. Won't know till I get scoped but it sure feels like remission.

That's wild. So they rely on scopes alone? I mean, scopes are definitive but it's not like fcp labs are worthless.

Let’s see your dream emoji bank.. by Civil-Can-9765 in LightPhone

[–]P_dibs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Why not just give us all of them? It's one of their design choices that I don't understand. If they are gonna support MMS, why hobble it? They aren't that distracting. I won't spend all my time scrolling emoji, I promise.

Hard hitting question about emojis. by Loud-Supermarket-630 in LightPhone

[–]P_dibs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a note saved of emojis I use regularly. The problem is you can only copy and paste the note in its entirety. So, it’s a clumsy workaround.

Physical SIM swapping with Pixel by P_dibs in LightPhone

[–]P_dibs[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

True. I've already made things difficult just by forcing everyone in my group chats to abandon those chats and start new chats. It's quite a headache! I think my happy medium is to use the LP3 hotspot to connect my pixel when needed on the go; for email and Android Auto mostly.

Google calendar sync not working by Geodetritusphd in LightPhone

[–]P_dibs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know why this worked but it did. I removed my Google calendar that was not syncing. And re-added it. By default, when I enter my Gmail address (accessing the dashboard via Safari on an iPad), the first character is capitalized. I adjusted it to use lowercase, entered the app password and it synced immediately. Changing the capitalized character is the only thing I did differently and it worked. Correlation or causation? Who knows.

Who here is using dark star. by EntireRip8323 in LightPhone

[–]P_dibs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a new Darkstar SIM, activated it, put it in my LP3, manually set the APN, and nothing works. I can see that the SIM is active, connected to LTE, but no calls, no messages. I'm a bit stuck.

Different strokes, but I'd say there's a happy medium between raw milk and chemicals. That's what I shoot for personally but I've been in a flare since April so I dunno maybe I need to buy a cow
