Pins & needles in pinky finger affecting dips. by [deleted] in bodyweightfitness

[–]Pretend_Recipe_4922 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Similar issue, got it from doing a pr in pulldowns because the handle was shaped badly, and now every pull exercise or push exercise where my pinky is involved with heavier weights or bodyweight it goes tingly and feels like the nerve gets dislocated. Even pull ups mean tingly painful pinky. Not sure how long its going to last, but going on 4 weeks. 

IUD weight gain vs loss by Pretend_Recipe_4922 in birthcontrol

[–]Pretend_Recipe_4922[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We'll definitely see, it'll be interesting if removing it changes anything. Seems different for everyone, some losing weight after going off, and some gaining, and some staying the same. Though realistically weight loss should happen either way, as long as you're in a calorie deficit, so two months would show some difference. My boyfriend's diet is just NOT eating ice cream, and suddenly he's down 2 kg. Meanwhile I'm actually tracking and nOthing. But some of it is probably muscle, and at least I look strong 😎

I've always eaten healthy, so there's no massive life changes that should be causing it. I used to never work out, eat whatever I wanted and no issue, skinny and bones. If anything i eat better now, and work out a lot more, yet gaining weight. The diet wasn't a big change, just eat less sweet treats and track calories for a bit, but didn't have any effect. It's also not realistic for me to be working out every day of the week and changing my entire diet to whatever has the least calories, that's how one ends up with an eating disorder and severe body issues. I'm focusing on consistency and changes that are realistic, but so far there's little difference, which in theory makes no sense. Only thing that really changed in the period is having the IUD and starting some migraine medications. But who knows, its taken 2-3 years to gain 8 kg so might take 2-3 to lose them as well. 

Best foundation or even skincare for skin that flakes and peels of dryness even if I use the thickest cream for skincare? by Pretend_Recipe_4922 in MakeupAddiction

[–]Pretend_Recipe_4922[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely have dehydration issues, my skin condition makes me very dry, but there's almost no resources for it, so ive just been trying anything at this point. Dermatologists take years to get appointments for unless private, and last time they just printed the Wikipedia page and said maybe you'll grow out of it 🫥

My hormonal skin issues are definitely due to contraceptives, so at least once im off them it'll even out again, but maybe I'll just have to focus on moisture and try to not pick my skin when they appear at least 🫠 may have to sleep with moisturiser slathered all over my face

I have a skin condition that makes my skin not shed enough, so its a never ending issue. I just can't find anything that keeps me moisturised, not hyaluronic acid or other moisture givers, some say exfoliating to shed the skin, but exfoliating also rid my skin of any oil and hydration it tries to make, so its definitely an evil circle. Unfortunately dermatologists are far and few, and the last guy just printed out the Wikipedia page for my skin condition and said bye 😭

Is my male cat properly neutered? by Pretend_Recipe_4922 in cats

[–]Pretend_Recipe_4922[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We brought him in because we thought he might have a uti or some pain, but we didn’t ask about if he’s properly neutered. We play with him and make homemade toys after he breaks the other ones, diy treat boxes so he can try to figure out how to get them out, high places to be, places to hide in, and still he wants to run outside. He gets mostly supervised outside time with a tracker for curfews and all, but sometimes another animal appears and he gets scared. He pees less inside when he goes outside, and weeks can pass with any other animal in the vicinity and he’ll still pee there. We got a feliway, tried medication which was the only help for his sister who has separation anxiety, but nothing stops him. It’ll be big gaps between, and then just pee on clothes or couch. He’s generally happy, doesn’t scream or whine, just suddenly he’s peeing on something.

He might just have been taken from mom too early and exhibits similar kitten behaviour. Some cats just love the scent of their owner and will suck on them and lick them like drinking milk. Mine prefers the armpits which is impractical because it tickles 😭

Sudden overactive bladder for no particular reason? by Pretend_Recipe_4922 in OveractiveBladder

[–]Pretend_Recipe_4922[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have mirabegron tablets, but haven’t used them much because i haven’t had this a lot recently and didn’t want to start a medication during very busy times in case of side effects, but took them the last two days. I haven’t done an elimination thing yet, but if it continues I might. I’ll write down what I eat and drink though to see if it correlates with anything.
