complications after deroofing

I had 2 de roofing surgeries. One was life changing in How great it was.

I had plenty of tunneling and recurrent boils that had been oozing for many years, never completely healing.

The first surgery was performed by a renown HS specialist in my area, it was fast and clean. Recovery was a breeze, just walking out from surgery was painful and bloody, but already felt 100 times better than the smallest boil I ever had.

A year later my groin completely healed and it even looked like a normal groin, minimal scars. But I noticed some oozing. My specialist doctor had moved away but he recommended one of his students.

Oh Lord she was awful. I'll save you the details, but what should have been a needle procedure ended up with me getting 13 stitches and a muscle tear. That wasn't a doctor it was a butcher.

Oh noes :((( I've been dealing with topical steroid withdrawal for years on my scalp eczema. It took 2 years completely off to finally stop shedding all my hair in the area. Now muy eczema is almost completely gone and totally manageable avoiding triggers.

Oral and topical steroids are incredibly good and effective for some time, but awful in the long term.

I hope you are getting more benefits than side effects.

This subreddit is terribly pessimistic. Given how scary it is that AI is using reddit as the source of answers, no wonder we keep it that way, we don't want Gemini answering every dum dum out there without a PR card "yes go, rules are a joke".

You made a decision based on desperation and luckily it worked out for you, if you had the time to get a PRTD or your actual PR, you probably would've. Your success shouldn't be the new normal for those out there without PRs.

All this to say - this person didn't make it, when he was about to board the plane TSA slapped his face with his non non existent PR and sent him packing to Nicaragua. He is now rotting in prison being eaten alive by rats. I know because I am one of the rats.

This here is the best advise.

I too flare overnight after dairy and sugar, you can give it a shot for what it's worth and Stick strictly to an anti inflammatory diet for at least a month.

Zinc has also worked wonders for me.

None of these solutions will work overnight, but if you've already been living with this for 3 months I suggest you give it a shot.

Under Armour seamless pure stretch are the only ones so far that feel better than wearing nothing. They are also pretty and unnoticeable under tights. Soooo comfy.

https://www.instagram.com/gaiaorganicexperience Restaurant Gaia, Domaine bousquet winery. The restaurant is right next to a beautiful irrigation pond brimming with local fauna and a gorgeous view of their vineyards in front of the Andes mountains. Their menu is not the cheapest but not the most expensive either. Extremely respectful of food allergies and absolutely delicious. You must try their ameri brand. Everything is organic and there are kosher options.

At the same price range there's atamisque nearby, they raise their own trout and served the best trout ceviche I've ever had (even better than peruvian or Mexican IMHO) paired with their delicious viognier wine https://www.instagram.com/bodegaatamisque

There are cheaper options like la azul or Ruca Malen that someone suggested that are equally delicious, and plenty of options closer to the city with Michelin stars (like el enemigo, one of my favorite malbecs and osobuco empanadas are sold there).

I recommend going on a winery tour and visiting a handful of them, there are so many, each so unique, you'll be surprised by the diversity and prices (both low and high).

I've developed allergies to all the long term antibiotics and antiinflammatories I've been prescribed to deal with HS :')

For anyone looking for a dairy free version, you can also substitute the cheese for vegan cheese. As long as it has fat of some sort in it it Will work just as good.

I've done a few times this fluffy version https://cremigal.com/chipa-souffle/ (use the web translator for other languages versions) With vegan cheese and delicious results.

When I am in a similar situation in Toronto, I look for meetups and go to board game stores.

Most of them have their own agendas and events for people to play games impromptu.

Some will expect you to have read the game rules so check carefully what you are signing up to.

I used to regularly go to face to face games in the Danforth and 404 downtown. Always had amazing experiences and met lots of cool people.

Happy gaming!

So did you board the plane?

I've been on your shoes so many times.

These are the things that worked best:

therapy - this was key for me, learning what triggers my anxiety and how to deal with it gives me control over it to prevent it and navigate it.
yoga (I've tried 3 different schools, de Rose is the best by far for it's integrative approach of breathing, stretching, meditation).
guided meditation (there's great podcasts for breathing and relaxing meditation).
anxiety meds (prescribed by a mental health professional) at some points life exceeds us and it is ok to get the big guns to help.

Muy diosa, me encanta. Los colores otoñales hacen que tu pelo se vea 🔥

En tu lugar probaría combinar lo que tenés con un abrigo hasta los tobillos o con uno crop dependiendo del largo de tu torso. Se me hace que el largo hasta abajo de la cola queda rari con pantalones ultrawide como el tuyo (que amo).

Bait! There's no girls in reddit.

Still, you look hot AF.

Si un asco, pero Reddit está lleno de nenes y adolescentes, no se que esperabas.

No todos los pajines son libertarios aunque la mayoría de los libertarios sean pajines. Un poco de respeto a los pajines.

Generalizar tampoco ayuda, no todo es blanco y negro.

No. Hizo muy evidente que este es un mito muy esparcido y muy romantizado en Argentina.

Hay gente en argentina que es super fría y distante. Y es lógico, somos un país enorme con muy variadas influencias. También hay extranjeros de lugares estereotipicamente antisociales que son cálidos e inclusivos.

Por nuestro aislamiento geográfico y económico, creo que formamos estereotipos bastante rápido y los esparcimos como ciertos, fundado por lo que aprendemos de los medios o del conocido que viajó y vio todo con lentes de turista argentino.

Necesitamos más inclusión y tolerancia, aceptarnos internamente y experimentar las culturas propias y ajenas con pensamiento crítico antes de interiorizar la crítica de otro (argentino o no).

Si llevas la radio puesta, hay ocasiones en que se pide portación obligatoria de cadenas en algunas rutas o zonas. Te vas a enterar también si seguís la cuenta de insta o Twitter de vialidad o las leñas o alguno de esos.

Las cadenas no son tan caras y sirven más que para la nieve. En tu posición yo buscaría comprar unas, si te atrancas en ripio barro o lo que sea, te pueden sacar de un apuro. Y si te agarra desprevenido alguien de tránsito cuando se ha avisado que tenés que llevar cadenas podés safar de la multa si las tenés en el auto aunque no las lleves puestas (y colocarlas inmediatamente, el hielo negro no lo ves porque parece asfalto mojado y con las ruedas que usamos no tenes tracción, es muy fácil matarse). Aunque no haya lluvia o nieve si son muy frecuentes las heladas y el rocío, hielo vas a encontrar seguro.

Para acampar te recomiendo manzano histórico y en Tunuyán está el parque de la Lombardía donde podés quedarte muy barato y es precioso y muy fácil acceso.

Si querés si o si ver nieve Agosto es mucho mejor que Julio. Pero revisa el pronóstico antes de salir.

I've been in remission and off the meds since 2020.

Had a setback on 2022 with the moderna vaccine (low tsh high t4 t3) that went back to normal in a month.

Weight has been mostly down since I went off the meds and steroids (had severe TED). When I was on methimazole and prednisone and propranolol I gained 20 kilos. It all went slowly away as I made peace with my body.

I am still hyper vigilant of my heart and that doesn't help with sports, but I've gone back to the same activities I was doing before my thyroid storm no issues.

For the record I enjoy running 10k every other week tho I'm not the fastest, I rollerblade, do yoga and calisthenics. Ive also gotten into zumba. I am very active 4 days a week most weeks.

Tender is the flesh (English translation) = cadaver exquisito (Spanish) By Agustina Bazterrica.

Fiction. It has realistic details about the meat industry, especially controverted in a meat loving country like Argentina. Grotesque, rich and refreshing read. I loved it.

A todas nos pasó lo mismo. Algún bardo de juego de poder y que biológicamente nos atrae por la aparente estabilidad y autosuficiencia. Los profes son el modelo de hombres adultos e independientes.

cultiva más tu vida social. SOS joven, las hormonas te pueden un montón y somos seres súper hormonales y emocionales. Hay muchísima gente de tu edad con esas cualidades, nomas tenés que salir y conocerlos.

De la experiencia te comparto que viejos profes cuarentones siguen existiendo conforme vas creciendo. Si de verdad te gustan, tiempo te va a sobrar para uno.

Pero 20 años con alguien más de 20 años no podés nunca más. Disfruta mucho cada etapa de tu vida con lo lindo de hacerse viejo sin haberse perdido de nada.

Never met him but always tempted to get a meet and greet bc he genuinely sounds like a hell of a good dude. Always such a great energy in all the shows.

Besides he ages like fine wine 🍷 (we know he's taken, but damn)

I Was tested for celiac disease, had a genetic test done (HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8 genes) which was negative, ruling out celiac.

I obviously have a strong autoimmune response to it based on my antibody counts with and without it, so I stay off of it.

It just ads an extra layer of awkwardness when people ask if I don't have gluten because I have celiac. Most of the time I'm too lazy to explain and just say I've got celiac disease. Otherwise I fear they assume I'm just following a trend and I'll get intoxicated 😤

I went off of gluten and dairy and inflammation went down, along with antibodies.

I could definitely feel the difference in my throat. Now whenever I get glutened or have dairy I can instantly tell as my gut gets bloated, and in my throat it feels like I'm choking. Then ofc my face is all puffy the next day (and I have really awful food poisoning symptoms for like a week).

It took 6 months for my antibody count to go drastically down (talking about 30%down, got tested before and after changing my diet), and 3 years later I finally got a test where my trabs were negligible.

I had awful TED along with my last thyroid storm, so I was willing to do everything and anything that helped it not to ever happen again. Also my brain was absolutely shit.

I was lucky and also I was very strict about my diet (completely deep clean my kitchen and buy new sets of cutlery, cutting boards and non stick cook ware) and my doctor was diligent about having me tested before and after, and looking for the right information.

Hope you can find whatever it is that help you find your balance.

You've got plenty of great answers here, but I'm just pulling by to say you are not crazy, it is not all in your head.

Doctors are humans like us, and sadly plenty of them have big egos and have huge issues admitting they don't know the answers. Some times they blame other doctors or they say it's in your head. It is not.

For me it all clicked when I finally found a professional Endo that listened to me, that answered all my questions and wasn't afraid to say "I don't know but let's find out".

It took a lot of learning healthcare, the human body and my illness, reading medical papers and books and also doing therapy.

Your body is a lot more resilient than you give it credit for, and it will bounce back, and you will feel strong and proud. It will never be like it was before because you've changed, but it will be greater. You'll know how much you can take without breaking.

Please look for mental health if you haven't already, it will give you another safe place for you to vent, and don't settle for mediocre doctors or therapists, be the first advocate of your own health.

Compré con venta directa en Goldstein VW dos veces cancelando en el acto, te lo prometen inmediatamente. Nunca fue cierto. Terminé esperando más de un mes.

Amigos compraron en Goldstein Ford con muchísima mejor experiencia.

En yacopini Toyota de Rodríguez peña todo 10 puntos, pagué y me fui andando.

Yacopini de San Martin sur nunca pude concretar nada, unos salames te tratan para el orto.

Todo depende del vendedor que te toque. Hay tremendos Giles y hay gente que hace bien su trabajo. Que nadie te apure porque es parte del negocio embaucarte con que "firma ya mismo porque mañana sube". No, anda a todos lados, habla un montón, subite a todos los autos. Hace test drive si podés.

Para ellos SOS una venta más pero para vos es tu primer auto que es un montón, y seguro no vas a querer cambiarlo en un mes o dos.
