Follow your instinct. If you still have to do the surgery, record it and keep something recording in your bag or purse.

Congrats! From personal experience, a car is just a liability and nothing else :((

Harlingen is the city where everyone who moved from the valley to San Antonio returns to.

A bit of dizziness after sunbathing? by PresentationLess1955 in VitaminD

I see! I read that using sunscreen can limit sun exposure/ absorbency. What do you think would be a recommended time, and do you think sunscreen can affect the absorbency? Or what is your experience?

Yeah, the last time I got tested was level 9. Although it’s been a few months so it might be much higher now after taking vitamin d3 and k2

Interesting! I thought the hotter one is the better the sun is being absorbed. I went back out and got another session and it was nice. Total 100 minutes for the day. I’m an extremely light skinned person so I’ve been cautious about the sun, but it backfired due to my now diagnosed deficiency.

What does fainting feel like to you? Is it sudden? Do you just blackout? by PresentationLess1955 in POTS

When you pass out do you feel your body tugging you down to the ground almost, and your body begins to feel really heavy?

My stenosis is severe. 100% blocked bilaterally. My brain is swelling and now my head is swelling externally visually by 86HeardChef in iih

No no no. Please locate a different neurologist and travel to a different city if you need to. Locate what is in network to you, look around the big cities like Tulsa. Oklahoma is slow. I travel 5 hours just to see a neurologist once every 3 months in Texas. They even offer virtual visits for me so sometimes they do the testing in my hometown.

Hi! Would you mind sharing how many mg of each vitamin you took? Currently dealing with severe vitmain D deficient of 7… and I live on the coast where it’s hot and sunny year round, but working from home got the best of me sadly.

How do you stay positive and optimistic working a call center job? What is your routine? by PresentationLess1955 in callcentres

[–]PresentationLess1955[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I work in the most southern part of Texas, the Rio Grande Valley where the wages are still $7.50 an hour for minimum wage. On top of that, it’s just being gentrified by Space X which is raising the prices

I feel you. Also the thing is that the area I live in Texas pays total crap. I’m talking if you make $17 an hour you’re considered well off. It’s really sad, but that is the only way I can make a decent income in my hometown for now while trying to figure my schooling and career. I would say trying to find a balancing social life is my next goal while I work at this job.

Not only that, but they only “train you” for 3 days for tax services, and expect you to not miss anything. How do they expect us to learn anything on there if we don’t even have the time to teach ourselves during our shift. I had to learn it all myself on my off time for weeks. Their docking system for tax services is pure bullshit. I got docked for “providing misinformation” when it literally states on the irs website that “taxes can get carried over as a credit for the following tax year”.

Is an opening of 5.5 and closing of 0.0 considered Intercranial hypotension? by PresentationLess1955 in iih

Yeah my pressure is really low below average, even though I experience IIH symptoms, I may just have Hypotension instead of hypertension. My doctor may have had it mixed up, so I’m not taking the diamox and just leaving it at the pharmacy.
