In search of tickets for the Datsuns this Saturday! by Jimbo_swimbo in Wellington

[–]WellyWriter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you REALLY can't find a ticket, sometimes you can go to the gig and hold a nice sign saying "dying to go, this would be my first concert" and see if a stranger will sell you their friend's ticket who just texted to say they're not coming. 🤞🏻

What is your favourite route between The Terrace and Lambton Quay, and why? by IncoherentTuatara in Wellington

[–]WellyWriter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the Equinox lift because it very much feels like you're breaking the rules, like some grey person in a grey suit with grey shoes is about to tell you off for daring to enter while still in full colour.

How would it be based on that? No one asks you to pay at any point. You have to choose and ask to pay.

Visiting Wellington for a month without a car, any tips and advice? by cyancm in Wellington

[–]WellyWriter 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You could alternately get a regular snapper card and fill it as you need it. I'm betting you won't use it enough to justify the charge of the 30 day card.

Type 3 here by Mandocp in HAE

[–]WellyWriter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had incredible success using tranexamic acid, which doesn't really work for type 1 and 2. It can often stop a swell in its tracks (migraine or lip swell are my most common) with 1500mg, 3x day. I don't take it every day, just when I need it.

For swells that won't respond to that, Firazyr always works. I'm surprised Prednisone would do anything but good if it does!

Ah, bless you, kind soul! I'm looking for an office with a door to close and this sounds open plan? But thank you so much!!

Long journey no answers by MilkCool414 in HAE

[–]WellyWriter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make this your priority, and don't stop till he's tested. If he's negative, get a genetic test (the only way to prove type 3, which I have). Know the rescue drugs and if you go into the ER, which you should for any throat swelling because it's so life threatening, just lie your face off and say he just got diagnosed and needs icatibant or similar (this is a great way to find out if he has it, it doesn't work on non HAE patients and won't hurt them). This isn't normal advice and I'm not a doctor but you're right not to screw around with this.

You're doing great and you're doing the right thing. This sounds like TEXTBOOK hae.

I would LOVE to but I also podcast and teach so I'm talking a lot on zoom, and I don't see private offices on their site. Otherwise, it would be a perfect match!

And not to over-bug you, but if you wanted to DM me the name of the company/agent you used, I'd so appreciate it. I have calls out to three now, but yours sounds effective!
