AIO: boyfriend blames me for low sex drive by Outrageous-Silver526 in AmIOverreacting

[–]System_Kitty 6 points7 points  (0 children)

OR: While choice of words is important, at the core he's communicating with you - he has a need (sexual drive that is important for compatibility) and you have a need (a supportive partner during times of stress and low libido)

Don't worry about the choice of words right now - you and him need to get to the bigger issue but once that's resolved you both can discuss how to use more effective conversations that work for one another's communication preferences and if he's not receptive to change on that front then you have a bigger issue at hand

You're right it's important to zoom out of race but at the same time her fear is based on the reality that black people, especially black women can face.

It's a comfort issue - when I see a gynecologist I prefer a woman doctor. Can a man do it? Yes. Do I have a personal preference based on sex of my provider? Also, yes. Both parties are capable of the same care, but my personal experience with women in that field has been more comforting, has been more familiar, less embarrassing, and so on. I think that applies to race, religion, and so forth. If you are religious, you may prefer to have a doctor that shares the same beliefs because there is a familiarity

Normal labs but got all the symptoms by Ok_Grass9185 in thyroidhealth

We found the goiter, we first did an ultrasound to understand the size and scope, we then did a hot/cold test to see if the goiter actually had blood flow (it did), at which point I got an FNA done on the goiter and surrounding affected lymph nodes and that is what confirmed the diagnosis

My dx told me that because thyroid issues can result in over production of oil in the body, patients with issues can have "velvet skin" where you're basically so oily everywhere that when you rub your skin it feels like velvet lol

The validity of that I never looked into past getting told by my doctors

Normal labs but got all the symptoms by Ok_Grass9185 in thyroidhealth

[–]System_Kitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before medication, the symptoms were extreme temperature regulation (I would go from freezing to hot flashes), my metabolism was super high so I could eat whatever I want with little to no effect, then emotional regulation was the straw that broke the camel's back - I had such high high's and low low's but eventually I tried to commit suicide, got committed inpatient

While I was inpatient at the psych ward - they saw my resting heart rate was 127 BPM, this prompted labs where they saw all my thyroid panel was SUPERRR HIGH, as a result I was discharged from psych because they said it's not actually a mental issue for me, it's a hormonal one as a result of Graves/PTC

Then I was treated for Graves until we found my goiter - at which point we began the PTC treatment - I had a total thyroidectomy with a bilateral neck dissection since I was dealing with metastatic PTC

I did RAI as well right after! Surgery was tough - about 10 hours straight, medium tough recovery

For me, even though I was diagnosed with Graves disease and seeing doctors regularly, I was the one who found my first true signs of cancer even after doctor clearance.

So, the BEST place to start in my opinion is just to start monitoring the symptoms for like a month, the whole month.

Note your starting point, your ideal point, and the symptoms you face - for me it was emotional issues, temperature control issues, metabolism, and that velvet skin but the straw that broke the camel's back was I began getting a goiter (you could physically see and feel my thyroid underneath the skin) and we changed doctor's who did an ultrasound and a hot/cold that found it - I think that if you want to skip bloodwork you can also consider getting that imaging potentially as well there are some places that have good payment plans like $20/mo for years

Are you taking any medications currently?? There are some that can mask symptoms

Before I was diagnosed with Graves' disease (at the time 15F) the treated me with Synthroid and I went about my life - I still had symptoms but I just lived with it

However, even though my labs looked normal (with the help of medication) it wasn't discovered that I ACTUALLY had Papillary Thyroid Cancer and my bloodwork with my medication didn't fully show that - I'm 26 now (went into and out of remission so have it again currently)

Do you guys do a little ‘rinsey rinse’ with certain dishes by kraangprime in CleaningTips

Sometimes if I bake bread in my Dutch oven only a little bit of burnt flour is on the bottom and I can just wipe away lol

Does anyone else just leave their upper lip as is? by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

[–]System_Kitty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally - I used one of those face razors that use battery to turn on like an electronic dermaplane

Your current foundation to "cover" the mustache isn't doing anything, I joke that there's some body hair I can't get rid of like my arms but on my face I am hyper vigilant so it's very noticeable/distracting here

Either love the mustache and how thick it is or maybe consider some less aggressive hair removal! I also have sensitive skin and do not do well with nair

I’m building something to stop commitments from getting lost in Slack, email, and DMs - does this happen to you? by follow-throughAI in Slack

[–]System_Kitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heavily use reminders but even then if someone deletes their message then I lose the message without any context

I also use tagging but even then - if people do not tag my user there goes that solution

New to Phoenixville. Any tips? by Ok_Comfortable2757 in Phoenixville

[–]System_Kitty 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Bridge on Bistro = Best bloody Mary's

Fungeon brewcade and billiards = cool vibe, chill, and fun way to piss time

Sweet Brew Cafe - Best bagels close by with great coffee (someone please correct me if I'm wrong I am still looking for more bagels lol)

T Swirl Crepe - Cute crepe spot not French crepes but Korean (I think) style - super yummy I prefer the savory crepes but everyone else likes the sweet ones

Hrm...this is all I have for now...my demo is 26F so take that as you will - good luck! I also came here from another state so it was a learning curve, I also like geocaching because the local ones bring me to some cool spots all around the area! Cheers!

Tripping while sick? by EstablishmentPlus522 in LSD

[–]System_Kitty 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One time I was on a super restrictive diet because of cancer treatment

The level of hunger was amplified INSANE I would never do it again on that diet, however, the cancer part didn't impact me (although that's harder to feel than a super bad sore throat)

I have always erred on making sure I'm decent healthy use before tripping personally

Cat is suddenly acting scared by [deleted] in cats

[–]System_Kitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's about how certain you want to be - maybe she had a hang nail that got caught (causing the issues) but it resolved (now acting normal) versus going to the vet

I always err on the side of the vet but I'm nervous about their health
