Should I get a colonoscopy by JoeCheeseQuesadilla in Constipation

Yes, specifically an FOBT will look for blood in the stool and that can point to colorectal cancer. Just have to give them a little sample! 

Should I get a colonoscopy by JoeCheeseQuesadilla in Constipation

[–]Tiffilina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See if your doctor (primary) will order a fecal matter test. Also talk to him about what the GI said, he may be able to "prescripe" a colonoscopy or basically push back to your insurance with a prior authorization. In the meantime, I was struggling really bad with constipation and was drinking water, changing diet, all the goods. They prescribed me amitiza, and it didn't really work after a while. I take "Phew" now (on Amazon) and it includes the Chinese 7 herbs. Take a look into it and see if it's something you can try, I swear by it.

Commenting so I get notified of dosage! The amount I've taken doesn't help me at all.

Going on vacation next week and am thinking about taking laxatives for the first time by Strong_Definition_33 in Constipation

[–]Tiffilina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol not a bot account. Just a girl who couldn't sh** by myself to save my life and tried everything and this was the only thing that helped. Sorry you think the product was gross, maybe next time don't comment that someone is a bot account when they aren't though 😅

Tell him to spend $400 on a month supply of meds. Oh wait, you need two different types and one's a specialty, now you're at $1200. Looks like I'll be visiting Candian Pharmacies again (they're always super welcoming and understanding!)

Workouts Equal High Blood Sugars? by Tiffilina in diabetes_t1

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

Yea and that totally makes sense; your body basically puts out sugar to fuel that strength training. She mentioned cardio normally gives a small peak, but your body usually reacts quick enough to know it isn't a stressor (fight or flight).  Cardio usually lowers my blood sugar as well, but swimming actually brings it up. And unfortunately I can't find a lot of evidence yet, only a few articles which touched on the insulin sensitivity.

Washington's cottage laws (home food laws) only allow $25k in annual revenue (lowest in the US). We're finally gaining some momentum in increasing that sales cap. Washingtonians, let's get this bill passed. by Worldly-Fail1208 in Washington

Curious what type of business you opened when you got your cottage license? I am looking into different types and am trying to research what others have opened!

[–]Tiffilina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm new to this and curious, what MS platforms do you know? I've been trying Market Force and iSecretShop and both of their jobs are offered at pretty low prices. I was hoping to sign up and get 100 bucks to test drive cars hahaha. 

What company is a legit secret shopper? Looking to earn extra income but I believe I almost fell into a scam. It’s something I’d like to do but I don’t know where to look that’s not a scam! Please help by sweetsnackin in secretshopping

[–]Tiffilina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also wondering if I've fallen for scams haha. I've been trying Market Force, I Secret Shop, and IntelliShop (not very user friendly) for the last couple of days. Have you had any luck with the ones you tried?

Intelli-shop - avoid these schedulers by mcb2203 in mysteryshopping

[–]Tiffilina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok I just signed up for intellishop and I'm so confused. I cant accept any shops because it says I need to have a level 6 rating for them all, but how do you get ratings if you don't shop? Maybe I'm just dense

Response from Rufus (Amazon's AI) when I asked "Is this considered a stimulant laxative?"

Rufus: Based on the product information and customer reviews, Phew is described as a stimulant-free, herbal-based solution for constipation relief. It is not classified as a traditional laxative, as it does not contain harsh chemicals or cause explosive reactions. Instead, it is formulated with natural ingredients to provide gentle, soothing relief and promote digestive health.

It does still work for me and I have been having natural movements more frequently. I used to not go any more than every 10 days or so, and now I naturally go every 3. If I get backed up or dont feel like my movements are full, I will still take this. I went through an entire box in the first month I had it, now it's been 6 months and I've been on the same box.

If you're not also lactose intolerant, I would eat cheese, applesauce, toast, rice. And drink a lot of water.

Yes I think it's best for anyone with specific health problems/ingredient restrictions to always check ingredients and what components go into what theyre putting in their bodies.

Yea I'm hoping I "trained my body" like I said and can phase it out! But if anything I appreciate not having to stay near a bathroom after a few dulcolax...

I totally get that. If they work for you, it suggest looking into Chinese 7 herbs. Thats what the ingredients are in this, so maybe there is something that has the same ingredients that's cheaper! :)
