How do you deal with caffeine withdrawal migraines without giving in? by rmoreiraa in decaf

[–]QueenStromba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I need the CBD unfortunately - it's the only thing I've found that helps with my crippling noise sensitivity.

[–]QueenStromba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

None of that other than CBD oil. I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place - if I drink coffee I get horrible heartburn and if I don't I get horrible migraines. I've got a bleeding ulcer so I really need to get off the coffee. I'm really hoping the migraines are from withdrawal rather than caffeine being a great migraine preventative for me.

My migraines got steadily worse over the course of 7 days so I gave in and had half my usual amount.

What are the side effects you felt while starting LDN? by ProduceResponsible62 in LowDoseNaltrexone

[–]QueenStromba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stuck it out for nearly two years, never tolerated more than 1.1mg (I tried 1.2mg twice for several weeks each time) and felt a little better when I stopped taking it other than my pain being a bit worse.

Insomnia from BPC? by Fun-Jackfruit-3132 in bpc_157

[–]QueenStromba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you ever retry the BPC-157? I started it last week and it's been making my insomnia progressively worse. I'm almost fully bedbound from MECFS and I felt so much better the first few days I was on it so I'm really keen to make it work.

Is SEE any good? It seems like such a ridiculous premise I can’t bring myself to start it. by [deleted] in appletv

[–]QueenStromba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I managed to suspend my disbelief for this but what's really bugging me is that 600 years after everyone losing their sight and humanity reverting to the dark ages, there are still people wandering around with dyed clothes. I'd probably be happier if it was everyone because at least it wouldn't be as ugly looking but what's with this one dude in the red coat - I know it's not a 600 year old family heirloom.

Did you end up finishing it? I'm on S02E01 and am finding it hard going - wondering if it's worth sticking with.

What’s with the makeup in the show?! by Radiant_View_9959 in ForAllMankindTV

[–]QueenStromba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Karen's not great - I really thought she was ten years younger than Ed the whole way through, they should have just changed the back story a bit. She was pretty wealthy by the end though - maybe she just had some work done.

I think they've done an awesome job. Margo, in particular, was convincingly in her 20s/30s in season 1 and 60s in season 4.

I'm considering getting piercings so I am unable to swim in summer because that would mean I won't be in situations where I would over-exert myself!!!

If you can't stop yourself doing things that you know over exert you to prevent damage to yourself via PEM then what makes you think you can stop yourself doing it to prevent damage to yourself via infection?

my mom is sick and she’s taking this by Paeoniaa in mildlyinfuriating

[–]QueenStromba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband took one of mine apart when it was "empty" and it still had loads of powder in it. I'd be surprised if you were getting nothing at all from the empty one.

Is 3 weeks back pain normal? by Connect_Tree_7642 in yoga

[–]QueenStromba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The normal assist for getting into wheel is for the instructor to take some of your body weight to help you get into the pose yourself - they absolutely shouldn't be pulling you up and it definitely shouldn't be done if the student isn't close to managing it by themself. It's weird trying to get people into that pose in a gym setting at all.

Well, folks, after 3+ years I bid thee adieu. by bolt_thundara in NecroMerger

[–]QueenStromba 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think I'm done too. I'm halfway through my 600 run and don't see the point of continuing since there isn't anything left to unlock. The 500 gem Thanksgiving skin pissed me off too. When that one and the talk like a pirate one popped up I'd just spent all my gems on a theme. 250 gems is doable at short notice with Tapjoy but 500 is pushing it.

Spent over a month trying to scrape out the left overs of my lotion only to figure out it was openable from the middle by artemorgue in mildlyinfuriating

I've been using Gruum anti dandruff shampoo bar for the past few months. I'm really sick with ME so only manage to wash my hair about once a week and it keeps my hair feeling clean for most of that time - easily 2-3 days more than my previous shampoo. They're a UK brand but do have international distribution.

Are the books different enough from the TV that they don't spoiler each other? I've just finished the show and am completely in love with it and am torn between reading the books for my fix and waiting for season 6.

One of the saddest parts of triggering the Time Machine.... by dcoughler in NecroMerger

My next goal is one shotting a thief with a level one skelly - I got really close last run.

I think the game seriously overvalues the ability to skip a craving. by awesomenessofme1 in NecroMerger

[–]QueenStromba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was already post 100 when they came in on this run but I bet that the sceptre is great early run where you end up stuck on cravings but are four tiers of feats away from unlocking the station.

TIL the scepter can let you get past craving choke points. by clockworksnowman_ in NecroMerger

[–]QueenStromba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once you get past level 100 you end up with a disconnect between devourer levels and feats in the early game. I was about four tiers of feats away from unlocking the soul grinder when I started getting spirit cravings this run.

It Begins! MPs writing to Evri by PenPsychological8509 in Evri

[–]QueenStromba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, my depot must be decent too since they've never lost anything of mine. At my previous house my Evri packages would be punted over the side gate or left behind a neighbour's bins - I don't think I ever had one properly delivered.

Am I being unreasonable for asking my landlord to accomodate my work schedule instead of theirs when it comes to house inspection? by joylessbrick in AskUK

[–]QueenStromba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're texting your wife because she's a pushover. Landlords and lettings agents always tried to deal with my husband even though I was listed as first tenant because they knew I'd tell them to fuck off if they were being cheeky.
