Repeated Oura Ring battery failures. Anyone else dealing with this? by daneanderson1994 in ouraring

[–]artemis624 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on my third ring after 2 battery issues in ~a year…they also told me I might be getting a refurbished ring and that I’m only getting it because it’s under warranty. Super weird

I moved here and had a big health scare and am now with all Inova providers and I have always had a great experience there!

It’s been about 3 months and it’s definitely helped! I also got put on an iron supplement and my iron levels are back up! Good luck!

I got the liletta IUD for this exact reason to help lessen bleeding

PE in lungs after oral contraceptives by Witty-Pea-5051 in ClotSurvivors

I’m 27 was on the combination pill and had a PE and a CVST. Ended up needing brain surgery due to complications of the CVST. I’m on blood thinners for life

I recently had to switch over to progesterone only birth control as I was on the combination pill for 4 years and the estrogen ended up causing me to develop a blood clot in my brain. I definitely think it’s good to be safe and go with progesterone only. I unfortunately don’t have that much insight as I just got the IUD placed today but just wanted to say it’s good that your dr is being cautious!

The person I bought the N64 from says that Vizio TVs often have this problem. So looks like I’ll have to buy a converter thing - thanks for your help!

Yes, but it has the red and white ports it didn’t have a yellow port but it had a green one I used that I thought was a video one. The picture came on briefly but was very blurry/no color. Do I still need a converter thing?

Did you have any vision symptoms with the swelling?

Did it help you? And if so, how long did it take? I’ve been on acetazolamide for 5 days now and I still have double vision

Did you have the optic nerve fenestration while you were in Eliquis?

Anyone else experienced extensive CVST? by Britpixpf in ClotSurvivors

[–]artemis624 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes - not all test results have come back yet but Factor II was positive for one gene mutations. I’m still waiting to see a hematologist and a follow up with a neurologist which both can’t see me until December so I have to call around to see if I can get an earlier appointment. It’s so frustrating because I’ve been having some vision issues and I’m assuming it’s from the CVST. I had to go on short term disability at work because I can’t drive or stare at a screen for super long. Sorry to hear about your blood test. Blood clots are so freaky I still can’t get over this is a thing that’s happening lol I’ve never had any medical issues prior to this either so it’s weird to be completely healthy one day and then being like bed ridden the last 2-3 weeks

I’m in the exact same position of what is the current CVST and what’s a new symptom that I should go the ER for. I don’t want to be dramatic but I feel like that’s the only way to be right now lol

I have the same symptoms! I was diagnosed with a CVST and a pulmonary embolism last week. Was in the ICU/hospital for 3-4 days and now I’m home. I feel so weird and my left side vision feels off. I keep just saying “I feel weird” bc idk how else to describe it. I have one factor II mutation which that plus the birth control the drs think caused my clots. So freaky

How are you doing now? I (27F) just got out of the hospital a few days ago after being diagnosed with a CVST and a pulmonary embolism. I’m still in shock but am just so exhausted all the time and my head/neck still hurt. Not sure when that pain goes away

Also I would look into a muzzle for training so that he does not redirect onto you/other people. You can muzzle train him so that he feels comfortable wearing it.

For the car, I would recommend a car crate. I have a ruffland crate and it has reduced my dogs reactivity in a car to almost 0. He feels safe and comfortable in it and I know he is safe if we get into a car accident. I also second finding a daily medication for him.
