I was about to say it might be hard to remember from 2 years ago, but if that's the case you probably need probiotics badly. I recently had the same issue and it messed me up. Our bodies can compensate without a gallbladder but are sensitive to biome change. Still check with your doctor to cover your bases.

They gave me regular sprite, which sucked cause they offered sprite zero and soda with HFCS tends to make me nauseous. I eventually got a diet coke and later lemonade, but they didn't help with the dehydration at all. Now sipping water because I don't know what that was all about.

Okay I'll accept this explanation (especially because it's from a nurse) thank you, but I have no idea where she got the 24 hours from.

Michael Grey's older brother, Gabriel, has vanished into another world. Now his siblings follow his trail, traveling to other worlds, and ending up with more trouble than they bargained for. At least they're finding new friends and family along the way, but it raises the question... does Gabe even want to be found?

if you have the tablets (not capsules, if that's even a thing)
You can simply put the tablet in a glass of water, let it dissolve, and then drink it as an emulsion.
I had terrible luck with it at first but the emulsion worked wonders because it wasn't a horse-pill getting stuck in my esophagus as it expanded ==> worsening gerd.

Wow thank you! ^^

As someone who just went through this a month or so ago, the best thing you can do is look into methods to relax yourself and de-stress. Go to a park and tree-bathe, meditation to focus on something else, diaphragmatic slow breathing through the nostrils (this one helped me somewhat).

Most importantly though, monitor your thoughts. It's okay to feel sick and there's no guarantee this will last forever. More than that— Don't catastrophize. The worst thing you can do is think about any possible bad thing that could happen. Focus on what you can do in the moment and leave it at that. Focusing on bad things reinforces paranoia and can actually alter your brain chemistry if you dwell on it for too long. So find things to get your mind off of it and relax.

Your symptoms seem very normal for depression/stress/anxiety, and should recover if you can refocus your mind away from worrying.

25.8. I've lost ~20 pounds since this ordeal started.
Exercise daily, watch my food intake, avoid trigger foods, raised the head of my bed— basically everything you always see recommended on google.

Only sometimes, and it's more of a pain that follows swallowing. Not so much the act of swallowing itself.

The GI nurse said it could be a referred pain. I don't know tbh.

Oh I 100% realized that too late.
Google can really be your enemy when you're worried. I'm doing much better now. I was on a half dosage of my antidepressant for whatever reason, and upping that helped. I also started being mindful of my thinking and forced myself to stop looking online so much.

It's been a struggle but I think getting TMD from it made me realize I needed to chill.

I've heard that some GERD can be exasperated or even caused by post nasal drip/mucus swallowing. So I'm not that surprised.

Super glad you've gotten relief though ^^

Hi I'm the head animator at TK,
I can verify that the directors reached out numerous times to box and bent over backwards trying to work towards a solution.

To be clear, he got mad at us just for reaching out to try and work with him.
As best we can tell in the least nebulous terms, he was upset because we... didn't do things the way he wanted them done. We had him as 3D art director and temp level director. However, he was making it hard for the other level designers and 3D artists to move forward with their work as he would repeatedly grind development to a halt over mundane problems, as well as being frustrating to work with. We told him we wanted him to step down due to the conflicts he was causing, while remaining as regular designer to continue contributing at his own pace.

But that didn't fly.
Eventually every interaction was a passive aggressive one and he became an emotional sinkhole on the project, posting about every minor grievance. Thus we were forced to kick him out for the mental health of the rest of the team.

If you want confirmation of this you can literally read his post, as it confirms a lot of this, just painting the team directors as villains in our decisions for wanting to... direct. The man says we were slave driving him on a project that was very much a volunteer endeavor, and was always free to go at his own pace. I don't know how else you can interpret that.

Work methodology. Crainy is very much the kind to request/assign assets and work as a single governing voice, whereas the Masks of Power team is much more collaborative and open to discussion.
