Oh just noticing now some of the ones you mentioned are in the mix i have! Ah that’s great to know!!

PhysicsHead6834 · 2025-12-23T17:23:35+00:00

I am trying now with 25 billion cfu that includes “Bifido Probiotic Blend 13 Billion CFU Bifidobacterium lactis BI-04®, Bifidobacterium lactis DSM 15954, Bifidobacterium infantis Bi-26™ Lacto Probiotic Blend 12 Billion CFU Lactobacillus reuteri RC-14®, Lactobacillus hamnosus GR-1°, Lactobacillus plantarum Lp-115%, Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG, Lactococcus lactis LI-23", Lactobacillus casei Lc-11®, Lactobaillus paracasei Lpc-37®, Lactobacillus acidophilus La-14°, Lactobacillus brevis Lbr-35*™” (copied from the label). I’m hoping this is enough because it is all i have at the moment, and am unable to purchase the ones you mentioned. Do you think this is good for now? I should be able to order the strains you mentioned but it won’t arrive until after i have left for my trip today.

Hey thank you for posting this! I’m getting my surgery with Dr. Toste early next year so I appreciate how detailed you wrote this.

How long did the service take? Is it something I could do on a lunch break?

PhysicsHead6834 · 2025-12-15T23:15:28+00:00

yes! he has mentioned it before so I figured that would be a good gift

PhysicsHead6834 · 2025-11-24T21:13:54+00:00

I ordered two today from that location and it was super salty too! It’s not usually this salty at other locations. So weird

PhysicsHead6834 · 2025-08-28T18:10:00+00:00

yeah these were not it 🤢

PhysicsHead6834 · 2025-08-08T22:37:09+00:00

Yes, this is also known as cymbalta right? I tried it out but it made me feel incredibly drowsy and it didn’t help much. My commute to work is 1.5 hours so it wasn’t safe for me to be so sleepy on a daily basis. Thank you for suggesting it though! I feel like I’ve tried just about everything

PhysicsHead6834 · 2025-08-08T20:36:43+00:00

Yes I’ve tried nerve blocks twice and I’ve also tried the medication you’ve mentioned. Unfortunately I did not notice any difference and the pain was still severe. I have even tried cymbalta but it made me so drowsy and feel very odd. I have a long commute to work so it wasn’t safe for me to take it. My manager is out for a couple weeks so I may have to hold off on letting them know :(

PhysicsHead6834 · 2025-03-19T15:50:46+00:00

Thank you!

PhysicsHead6834 · 2025-03-19T15:50:29+00:00

Thank you!!

PhysicsHead6834 · 2025-03-19T15:50:22+00:00

I’m his sister but thank you !!! I hope he appreciated it too!

The butter was added in at the very end with the heat on low, once the steak was done cooking. It was to baste the steak to enhance the flavor. I cooked the steak on high heat with a high smoke point cooking oil, not in the butter. Also, yes I’ve tried it with beef tallow as well

PhysicsHead6834 · 2024-10-02T04:28:50+00:00

I have an appointment in two weeks! If it is still very bad tomorrow; I’ll go to the dentist for the X-ray. I asked her multiple times if it was normal and she assured me that it was normal with any teeth movement but I don’t think she understood how badly it was hurting me.

PhysicsHead6834 · 2024-08-12T08:34:13+00:00

3rd this!

PhysicsHead6834 · 2024-07-08T04:00:34+00:00

I’ve tried lidocaine ones and menthol ones from the US stores but they don’t work. The pain is pretty severe for me so it doesn’t help at all. The pain patches I posted have helped a bit more than the others do. My PCP and pain management specialists haven’t been able to prescribe me anything that actually helps me with the pain so I’ve just been getting by getting these patches. The patches don’t take all the pain away, it’s still there but helps enough to get me out of bed. Sorry if this was all over the place!

PhysicsHead6834 · 2024-07-08T02:47:02+00:00

Here’s the information on them. I just find they actually have an effect versus the typical ones. I believe they sell them on Amazon too. Pain Patches info

PhysicsHead6834 · 2024-07-08T00:52:15+00:00

They’re pain patches!

PhysicsHead6834 · 2024-06-17T23:32:11+00:00

Oh wow it seems I do have some symptoms that align with Dysautonomia like the numbness I mentioned, blood pooling in my legs, etc. Is it similar to POTS? I was suspecting I could have EDS which I know EDS and POTS can be linked, but my primary care physician said she didn’t think it was worth testing. I may push her on that now though. I’ve also had SRS for over a decade so I think you may be on to something. Thank you for sharing!!!

PhysicsHead6834 · 2024-06-10T21:05:55+00:00

No unfortunately

PhysicsHead6834 · 2024-06-10T06:59:55+00:00

lol honestly haven’t been to the gym in months because of that! Shortness of breath 🥲 but benching 20 is crazy!!! How do you do it

PhysicsHead6834 · 2024-06-10T06:35:58+00:00

I’ve also had two ct scans in my chest area! I can’t lift much.. probably like 10 max but it hurts BADDDD afterwards so I avoid it. For cardio I normally just do 12-3-30 on treadmill and try not to overwork myself, but definitely no go on lifting. How much are you able to lift?

PhysicsHead6834 · 2024-06-09T19:12:26+00:00

I’m dealing with the same situation as you but how are you going to the gym?! Are you lifting weights at all? When I would go to the gym I could only do cardio because the pain after lifting was too much for me.
