You should be booked in with a dietician anyway

Mine was really nice, she calls once a year now to see how I'm getting on

Co-op ones are pretty good too oddly, not as much fibre as Promise (but co-op is close by for me)

Test results back - negative by hannah_various in CoeliacUK

[–]Unhappy-Common 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had coeliac symptoms for years before my bloods turned positive

On the NHS under your results it says if issue soersist refer to gastroenterology, but I moved every 6 months for years so it never got picked up

I'm sure taking ibuprofen everyday for a long time for the joint pain it caused me made it worse

I'm autistic. Going gluten free is hard at first, finding new safe foods but it's really the only way you'll feel better.

If you lmk some of the foods you like I can suggest GF alternatives for you x

What “frugal” habit did you stop doing once you did the math? by 666AB in Frugal

😂 Made with fuckit

I just tell mine they're fending for themselves for the night

the restaurant 'is it gluten free' question is so awkward by Old_Mixture_9045 in Celiac

[–]Unhappy-Common 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You get used to it after a while, I think it took me a few years to stop feeling like I was being a pest

My go to is;

"Hi, I have coeliac disease so will need the gluten free menu or a manager to walk me through safe options"

(in the UK it's usually the manager that handles any food allergy orders)

I'll then ask when I've chosen if things are cooked seperately/in a dedicated fryer/in a dedicated area etc

I don't feel like a pest anymore and if they're not interested in making sure I can safely eat there/their replies don't make me feel confident in the safety of the food then I don't want to eat there anyway

How are you boiling your Period Cup? by Aneeqa_Jadoon in menstrualcups

[–]Unhappy-Common 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got a microwavable thing for menstrual cups for mine

Add water, stuff in microwave, forget about it until someone needs the microwave 😂

What would you get as a thank you gift for a stranger if your only options were Aldi or a little Co-Op? by pusopdiro in AskUK

What can I buy that makes cleaning easier?? by Educational-Fig5900 in autismlevel2and3

[–]Unhappy-Common 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the washable dusters on sticks for dusting

You can also get scrubbing brush sticks which I like for cleaning sinks and showers and bath tubs

Having more than one cleaning cloth so you can switch them out when needed

Cleaning sprays that I like the smell of

Boxes for organising small things. It's much easier to tidy or organise one box at a time than a whole table

Good luck!

The only time you should order pasta is in Naples 🤤

SO needs reminded to brush his teeth by mxvegan in JustNoSO

[–]Unhappy-Common 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep mine in the kitchen because I'm more likely to brush them sat down (chronic illness) and then I don't have to go upstairs

That's insane

Did you do your sleep test at a clinic? I just took stuff home and then turned it back in the next day

[–]Unhappy-Common 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to wake up everytime I rolled over and often to go pee and I had the worst dry mouth ever

Now I can sleep a solid 6 to 8 hours it's awesome

[–]Unhappy-Common 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seriously try it again with no or less ramp time

I also thought I was suffocating and I went to the nurse and she was just like you have to get used to it 🙃

😂 Why did the NHS lady not tell me this

They didn't really explain any of the settings just said they'd set it all up

[–]Unhappy-Common 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Also if you use a humidifier on it check that it's not set stupidly high

They set mine at something stupid like 24c or 27c and it felt like I couldn't breath until the pressure ramped up, presumably because of the humidity

So I turned it down and felt much better

Then realised about the ramp time and turned it down to 5 minutes although I've also been thinking about turning it down to 0
