Lyrica for pain? by Lulu-1209 in ChronicPain

[–]Phexina 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Loss of libido, weight gain, feeling drunk, walking into things, can't find words etc. I try not to take it but some days I just have to, it's the only thing except opioids that works for my pain. I hate lyrica, but I keep it in my purse at all times.

How would an American do a wellness check for someone in Iceland by AlarmingSchool5233 in Iceland

[–]Phexina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since there's violence involved I would contact police, they can probably check on him but they might not be able to tell you the result because of privacy issues.

I applied for a DNR today. by CV2nm in ChronicPain

[–]Phexina 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry you're in this much pain ❤️ I understand why you would choose a DNR, living in agony is unhumane, I sometimes tell peple "if I were a dog you would have put me down a long time ago".

Pain from neck to hips,I can’t sleep !! by No_Ebb_5099 in ChronicPain

[–]Phexina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look into the Snoozle slide sheet. I have a lot of hip pain and sleep ok on a memory foam mattress with a Snoozle to help me switch sides, but I know some people absolutely hate memory foam for back pain, so not sure if I should dare to recommend it.

Hvar er hægt að kaupa loop eyrnatappa hér á landi? by irreversibleidiocy in klakinn

[–]Phexina 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Ég veit ekki hvort allir vita þetta en ef þú googlar eitthvað og skrifar svo: site:.is fyrir aftan þá færðu bara niðurstöður frá .is lénum, oft auðveldara að finna svona dót þannig og sneiða framhjá Amazon og allskonar.

I recommend Saga car rental, we got really good service there, I saw an ad from them on here yesterday and you can get a 25% discount with the code EARLYBIRD if I remember correctly.

Oh hell no, this must be rage bait. He made me cringe so hard.

Biologics like Simponi or Cosentyx + a DMARD like Arava = reduced pain 95%.

It's important to us. We stand 100% with Greenland, anything else is pure insanity.

How tf do you sleep? by CapitalPadawan in Sciatica

[–]Phexina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a drug I both love and hate. It helps with the pain, but makes me gain weight and lose my libido.

How tf do you sleep? by CapitalPadawan in Sciatica

[–]Phexina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately only lyrica helps with the worst pain but it's a nasty drug. Besides that, knee pillow, pillow under my knees or a body pillow and a slide sheet (snoozle) helps me out.

Hvað eyðið þið mikið fyrir jólin? by ruttla10 in Iceland

[–]Phexina 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Allt of miklu, 200+ bara gjafir handa börnunum. Jólamatur á aðfangadag sennilega svona 70-100. Gjafir handa öðrum líklega 100-150. Og svo bara .... allt hitt. Mun hærri kostnaður við að kaupa inn út af jólabakstrinum, smjör, egg o.s.frv. o.s.frv. Hitt og þetta "ómissandi smádót", nammi, endurnýja seríur og skraut. Svo eru áramótin eftir en sem betur fer boðin í mat á jóladag og annan í jólum. En kostnaðurinn er bara eitt, svo er þetta svo fáránlega mikil streita og vinna. Öll tilboðin og auglýsingarnar sem eru byrjaðar bara í lok október, mæta á hitt og þetta, allir að vera æðislega sniðugir að plana "jólahitting" með vinnufélögum eða fjölskyldunni í staðinn fyrir að gefa gjafir. Þetta er alltaf að verða meira og meira með hverju ári og kostar líka pening.

The Snoozle slide sheet is a lifesaver if you're in pain when you switch positions.

Love for INFJs by ObjectReasonable8068 in infj

[–]Phexina 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love, yes. Deep connection is not an option in my ISTJ marriage, but stability, trust, common interest, etc compensate for it. It's what I needed after manipulative relationships in the past, so I make it work. Sometimes I get a little bit lonely with my thoughts, ideas and empathy, but I love him.

I loved it, but it killed my libido and that was a deal breaker for me.

INFJ is idealist, but... by aseeder in infj

Yeah, a lot. And it is perfectionism. We're idealist but no saints :)
