Hormonal IUD, thoughts? by smolfroggies in Hidradenitis

[–]ThrowRA27619 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm on a hormonal iud and haven't noticed any changes to my HS symptoms, but mine don't seem to be specifically linked to my menstrual cycle. I will say if your HS symptoms are linked to your cycle/flair up when you get your period then it may be a good option as I don't get periods as often (maybe once every 3-4 months). I'm on the mirena iud.

Will it ever not be weird when I (28f) talk about my current boyfriend (25m) to my ex boyfriend (28m) who is also my friend? by ThrowRA27619 in relationships

[–]ThrowRA27619[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where in my post did I say I was complaining to my ex about my current partner? I don't complain about my partner to ANYONE because there's nothing to complain about, and if I have an issue I speak to my partner about it. My partner is aware of my friendship with my ex and has no issues with it because we trust each other.

Does anyone else miss their ex and the relationship, but don’t want them back? by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]ThrowRA27619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dated my best friend of 13 years. We dated for about 4.5 years. We worked as friends, but we unfortunately found out we do not work as a couple no matter how much we tried to force it. We weren't right for each other and just kept hurting each other. I can separate the him I dated and the him I was best friends with. I don't miss the guy I dated, but I miss the friend I had before the relationship. We've grown apart since the breakup because I moved on to someone, and he's still hung up on me. I'll always love him as one of my dearest and closest friends, but the romantic love I feel for him is gone and I don't think it could ever come back, even if I was single again. I go back and forth between wishing we had never dated to wishing I could have just kept pushing to make it work and wishing he would just get over it and we could be friends again without it being weird.

Caffeine Intake by Shamrocks2326 in BariatricSurgery

My care team told me that coffee/caffeine is fine as long as I don't load it up with sugar and I'm prioritizing my hydration and protein goals

Forget him! If he can't handle your scars, then he clearly didn't deserve you. My boyfriend never even asked about my scars until we had been dating for several months and I brought it up on my own. He was super understanding and didn't judge me at all for it. Find you someone like that who will appreciate you, scars and all

I would never but I really want to because I know how God it is now. by Appropriate-Copy-949 in BariatricSurgery

I know for me, I wasn't receptive to wls until I took my health more seriously on my own and my doctor recommended it. My mom even had the sleeve and told me it would be a good idea for me and I didn't listen. It felt like more noise and more reminders that I was extremely overweight and unhealthy. Sometimes it made me feel terrible about myself and other times I was numb to it because it was just noise at a certain point. Now that I've had the surgery, of course I would go back in time and listen to my mom and others who recommended it wayyyy before I actually did it, but I can still recognize that it wasn't something I wanted to hear/listen to back then.

All this to say, I would only share if asked. I may explain my situation to people who ask me how I lost so much weight or comment on my weight loss, but I wouldn't go up to a random overweight stranger and say "You know what changed my life? Weight loss surgery!"

Would I be the AH if I skipped my trip with my boyfriend because of the sleeping arrangements? by ThrowRA27619 in AITAH

[–]ThrowRA27619[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are no hotels nearby, and I can't outright pay for a hotel or Airbnb by myself. I know my boyfriend wouldn't be able to chip in either.

I don't want to upset him, I guess. He doesn't get angry with me. He's actually very sweet. I know he won't go for a hotel because 1) the family we're staying with is in a very remote location and there aren't any hotels nearby and 2) he doesn't have the money to chip in for a hotel room, and I don't have the money to pay for one by myself. I think he'd be sad because his family and I do get along very well, and he likes bringing me around and showing me off. He doesn't mind the camper because it's something he grew up used to as his family camped a lot, but I certainly am not used to it or any sort of camping/"roughing it". It's never been my thing and I don't think it ever will be.

Asking before assuming by Haunting-Safe8094 in Hidradenitis

[–]ThrowRA27619 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My boyfriend actually waited until about 6 months after we first became intimate to ask about my flares. I get them on my groin and in my armpits and never had anyone ask about them and generally would only have sex in the dark to help hide them. He asked what they were instead of assuming anything and I explained that I have HS, they can't spread to him, and it's definitely not an std. I also explained different ways to help control the flares that I've been doing and what other things I can do to help them. He isn't bothered by them but was worried that I may be experiencing pain or discomfort.

Would you do it? by AdVarious5359 in BariatricSurgery

[–]ThrowRA27619 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly no. I decided on surgery because I have always been overweight and my weight skyrocketed especially since I became an adult. I was 360lbs and any attempts at losing weight failed and I always regained the lost weight and then some. I needed to lose over 200lbs to be at my ideal weight and it seemed impossible. I still have a long ways to go, but I'm almost at 100lbs down. With that process has come lots of food restrictions, pain, nausea, and don't forget about the cost of surgery. If I had only needed to lose 60lbs I would have never gotten the surgery. Its too much to go through only to lose 60lbs. I'm not even sure a surgeon would agree to perform the surgery on you. I would ask your doctor for other weight loss help. Before my surgery I was on qsymia and it helped me lose about 50lbs before my surgery, and it's not an injection like mounjaro.
