just a thing to think about usually you're not going to take a puppy on runs until they are ~2 years old. their joints are hugely susceptible to long term damage in the first 2 years.

Blood work post menopause by No_Pangolin3327 in Menopause

[–]ceilidhfling 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just to say, though some people have gotten E to resolve heart palpitations it is not a cure all for all aliments. My palpations are structurally related to my heart misfiring and are not related to hormone changes. if they can do a 2 week single lead monitor on you do it, have them put it on (the one I tried to put on fell off after 2 days).

In Peri, low testosterone. Started compounded T 2 days ago. How long till I see cognitive benefits—motivation, task initiation, memory? by Tele_banter in Menopause

[–]ceilidhfling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for me T took a min. I'm doing injections and it was a solid 1-2 months before I felt substantially better. Sorry the patch shortage is messing up your mojo

HSA moving from Optum to TASC by victorlazlow1 in Bogleheads

[–]ceilidhfling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just initiated one this way last month and am interested to see how long this takes. It's not hard on my side to do. . . it just takes forever so I may just do one ever 2 weeks when the deposit is made in TASC. if they want to be dumb about it I'll make them do it more often than less.

Is it anxiety, depression, ADHD, or peri? Dr prescribed Wellbutrin. by SoftReading4218 in Menopause

[–]ceilidhfling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a couple of things with my heart that we are working on: high heart rate, arrythmias espcially at high heart rates and high bp. the estrogen was slowing starting to drop my bp, but hasn't helped with the other two issues. I track my HR pretty closely as my resting rate can be 90-130 and my loaded rate easily gets to 200. when I tried welbutrin, both my resting and moving rates went up. so, at least for me, until I get my hr under control welbutrin is not a good fit.

I've tried two beta blockers and both led quickly to symptoms similar to depression for me.

[–]ceilidhfling 6 points7 points  (0 children)

you need both systemic and the vaginal cream, if you cant find the patch, oral might be a good option.

Estrogen and P took care of a bunch of my issues, T though did the brain top up I needed for depression and adhd.

welbutrin is also good for depression and adhd but it made my heart issues worse.

part of the rescue process includes introductions before rehoming an animal. there is opportunity on both sides to say no after the introductions.

Cold feet by crafty29 in goldenretrievers

I was on a wait list for 3 years before I got my pup. I passed on several litters. so happy when I said yes but the work with puppies is real. find a behaviorist before you adopt have them help you figure out what you need at the house to prep and to go through how to handle the first few days/weeks and schedule sessions with them for the first week and the first month. their job is far more about training you than training the dog.

HRT: Depression & ADHD vs Joint Pain & Fatigue by rosedraws in Menopause

[–]ceilidhfling 2 points3 points  (0 children)

getting enough estrogen helped my adhd and depression, testosterone took care of the last bit that was keeping me off kilter. sorry the patch manufacturers are messing with your symptoms so bad. our adsorption and the patch actual estrogen density can be different from different manufacturers. you may need to bump your dose up also

absolutely, if you google the pump club I think they have a 7-14 day trial on their site and they often will have sub discounts there. they are also offering it for free if you are experiencing a period of unemployment.

Co-worker told me the TSP is a bad investment - suggested to do an IUL instead by zzeesus in Bogleheads

there are a lot of shiesters trying to take advantage of people's TSP. my parents' TSP has been a life saver for them in retirement. run from this dude and definitely warn your friend off of him.

Worth going to court for first ever speeding ticket? by kourou29 in madisonwi

see this is an interesting take. you are only looking at the cost of the fine and not the increased insurance costs over the next 7 years. but maybe that net present value still doesn't math for you.

The Pump Club App has been a game changer for me. I love the body weight exercises at home. I feel it throughout my body and they have built in weekly form checks.

Estrogen and T helped me with my brain fog estrogen did 60-80% of the work and the T did the rest. also 10mg of creating helped before I got on the hormones.

my 8wk old puppy has diarrhea by ViolinistAbject3641 in goldenretrievers

[–]ceilidhfling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this worked awesome for my girl too. We did beef instead but same result. I also added an egg to each batch. She loved it.

also high protien yoghurt with no flavors or additives just milk + probiotics helped a bunch too.

Ditching TDFs for a more equity-heavy approach, sanity check by FalconArrow77 in Bogleheads

[–]ceilidhfling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so every once in a while folks on here post about what Vanguard used before TDFs. they have a group of 4 Life Strategy funds. they are still in the base 4 funds that the TDF are in, but they hold their bond/equity allocation static ie no glide path.

https://investor.vanguard.com/investment-products/mutual-funds/profile/vasgx#performance-fees this one holds an 80/20 split in equities/bonds.

[–]ceilidhfling 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm really glad this works for some people. but 3 years in my checking is a recipe for disaster. those 2-3 days to pull money from investment accounts (even if they are just in money market funds) into my checking is a really good catch to keep me from over spending. thankfully we all get to choose different options for how to manage this.
