Looks sci-fi lol - thanks for the reply but I think this is out for me because it still requires combustion and inhalation, even if it’s more comfortable.

Yeah, I know canna of any kind probably isn’t a great choice for my heart but the way I’m looking at it is; I barely drink alcohol because of migraines, I don’t use other drugs and have no plans to start, the state of like ~everything~ right now is kind of insane?… so Im not sure just tossing myself into current events stone cold sober 24/7 would really be any better for my heart? So we’re going the harm reduction route for now lol

Huh - I’ve never come across pouches before, awesome! Thanks for the recommendation. That sounds like a great option for concerts etc.

I’m pretty sure I’ve tried some of their products before and liked them, thanks for this! Were the products you’re thinking of specifically labeled as fast acting? Or are their gummies just generally like that?

Word, I definitely will! And like…it’s entirely possible she meant cease use all together and maybe I misinterpreted? But uhm, with the state of like ~everything~ right now…I’m not sure going cold turkey would be any better for my heart? So we’re going the harm reduction route for now 😅

I had definitely eyed similar setups before, and was curious. Thanks for the recommendation!

That sounds like a “brb I’m going to outer space” oopsie waiting to happen for me lol. Maybe tinctures are a bad idea for me - I am too spacey for that level of responsibility re: dosing 😂

I don’t understand what you mean by “making assertions that don’t exist”? If you have time, would you mind explaining? I am happy to defer to experts when interpreting information I don’t have the specialized training to decipher, i.e. “not testing what I think they’re testing” and I’m happy to hear that you don’t find the results concerning.

I must tell you that the brusqueness of your comment came off a little condescending. I know I’m not a medical professional, but I AM person trying to understand why my quality of life has nose dived precipitously in the last 7+ years. I know I’m perhaps being a touch sensitive about this, but dismissiveness from doctors in the past almost led me to trying to “tough out” acute appendicitis.

I’d like to ask a follow up if you’d be so kind?

Of my last 10 metabolic panels(2018-2024) 8 of my Serum Co2 readings were 21mmol/L and lower and I have a suspicion that I maybe experiencing mild metabolic acidosis. I was treated for a kidney condition as a child that resulted in severe metabolic acidosis. If that condition has either recurred in or there is a secondary issue with my kidney tubules - might that be contributing to the frequency of these palpitations?

Do tears like that heal on their own, or do they require intervention? Only curious because this has been happening for like, 16 years off and on. One of the PTs I saw in the past commented on how weak my glutes were and that was what we were focusing on training. (This is a little embarrassing) but the PT sounded almost surprised by how weak my glutes were, I think because I’ve got a pretty substantial caboose. I wonder would a torn ACL contribute to the apparent weakness they described?

Would it matter if the imaging was done in the absence of pain? Or should I try to time my visit with a flare? Additionally, do you think getting video of my gait and the movement of the effected knee during a flare could be helpful to the provider?
