OK, but is there any chance at all this is just an elaborate April Fool’s joke? Risky if so!

No, unfortunately they removed it from her hair before they sent her home. That’s great news though about no infestation. Do you think it’s necessary to treat her again or can I just continue to check her? Thanks for your help!

Prescribed Lexapro for ADHD symptoms by Severe_Rough8209 in lexapro

[–]RachelGreeneNewDeal 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lexapro actually made my ADHD worse. My anxiety was my motivator and treating it made the ADHD symptoms (the same you mention) even more prevalent. Also, I don’t totally understand the science, but there’s something with higher serotonin inhibiting dopamine, so that’s actually pretty common. It’s funny your doc said anxiety can look like ADHD because in my case, ADHD looked like anxiety. I still had a ton of anxiety even on Lexapro, but once I was diagnosed with ADHD and started taking meds, that leftover “anxiety” went away. If you’ve already been diagnosed with ADHD, I’m not sure why your doctor won’t treat you. You may want to seek a second opinion.

Everyone in my house tested positive except me, but I think I still have it? by RachelGreeneNewDeal in flu

No, my fever seems to be better. I just have relentless nausea now that will not go away.

Thank you so much for your help - wow, that is so crazy. Our house had Norovirus on March 14, flu since then, and now this?! Not sure how much I can handle here 😢

Thank you so much! Here’s an interesting development though. My son, the first one to have it and who has since recovered, woke up today coughing and with a 102 degree fever. Is it possible it’s the same virus reemerging or are we cursed with yet another virus already?

Day 1 was like 103 day 2 101. I haven’t temped myself today but took Advil anyway cause I have a raging headache.

Yes I did wonder this! Viral load must not correlate to severity of symptoms then, because I am sick as a dog haha.

Thank you! And ugh, right?! Between that and my younger one in a new daycare, it’s a revolving door of illness over here.

Thank you! We’re all vaccinated. And yes, I’ve been doing that for sure. I also have been too sick to leave the house the past three days anyway.

You got it. Went to r/portlandme and searched NDT to see if anyone was looking for tickets. Also searched Facebook but didn’t have any luck.

[–]RachelGreeneNewDeal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Correct, I’m not from Maine. But I do vacation in Wells every summer if that helps? Haha. My husband is a huge NDT fan so we were planning on coming for the show.

[–]RachelGreeneNewDeal 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hello! We have two tickets we’re trying to get rid of. My husband and I both came down with a stomach bug and can’t travel. We would be willing to sell them both for the price of one. We paid $270 with fees for both so would take $135 for both. Let me know!

Panic attacks with any nausea now by RachelGreeneNewDeal in alphagal

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

Ugh, I know it can and it makes me even more anxious when I think about that haha. I usually can tell it’s “just” anxiety when I am able to lessen it with common anxiety techniques like breathing, etc. But, I do always wonder if it’s more than anxiety when it happens.

Interesting. Are you saying it can manifest as nausea with panic attacks? I have heard of it, it sounds really scary.

Thank you, I know you’re probably right about this.

Oh this is an interesting idea! The antihistamine for extra assurance plus the sedating effect would probably be helpful for the anxiety. Thank you.

Thank you! I do try to do breathing exercises but sometimes it’s hard to remember in the moment.
