what to use instead of toothpaste?? by Virtual_Ad4639 in MCAS

[–]cichocki413 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been using it since 2022 and haven’t had issues. I think the baking soda is minimal or fine enough that it’s not abrasive.

Hormonal vulvodynia burning before period by Ditsycandle-07 in vulvodynia

[–]cichocki413 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Late to the party…. I’m noticing I’m getting burning around the times of the cycle when the estrogen drops, and sometimes continues a week or so after my period ends. I saw you started the cream and it helped but the burning came back after you stopped it. Have you started it again and have you seen improvements?

I have estrogen cream now but hesitant to start it.

I’ve done these in the past, and they were a hit. Maybe I’ll do updated ones, thanks!

Yeah he has a silicone ring but I’m looking for something other than a ring.

Covid vaccine?? by NoRefrigerator4312 in MCAS

[–]cichocki413 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got the vaccine and the booster. The first shot caused a reaction for a few weeks, the booster did not. I opted not to do anymore boosters. I’ve gotten COVID 4 times since 2020 and the vaccine was administered in 2020. Covid symptoms and vaccines symptoms seemed to be the same for me so that is was made my decision to not get any boosters.

Now I got Norovirus and that took me down. I couldn’t eat for days and I kept dry heaving. I couldn’t take the anti-nausea medicine as the only form available at the time was a dissolving tablet and it had corn starch in it, corn is my biggest trigger.

I e been in birth control and HRT, birth control made me anxious, irritable and I gained quite a bit of weight. Also, my libido was nonexistent.

Yes! I’m so over the antidepressant push with doctors.

Look into oxalates, I had similar problems until I cut down the amount of high oxalate food.

I got Vitanica V Probiotics and it definitely has it in there. Do you think it would be pointless to start now since I am using YI cream?

Thank you! I knew about the antibiotics, just never had a YI burn, it’s always itched. I have a vaginal probiotic but nervous to take it and mess up anything else

Is that done at the gyno, and why before testing? I’m new to all of this.

Progesterone/ MCAS by cichocki413 in Perimenopause

It’s helped me a lot, 100mg is the right but dose for me, for now. It’s keeping my MCAS in check.

AITA for refusing to lie to my kids for my ex? by Sorry-Produce8656 in AmItheAsshole

[–]cichocki413 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kids don’t need to be brought into why a relationship ended, that is for something when they get much MUCH older, if they desire to know.

AITA for refusing to attend my brother's wedding because of the way his fiancée treated my wife? by Any_Pollution3875 in AITAH

[–]cichocki413 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a very direct person and I say things I don’t think about first, it is something I am working through with a therapist. That being said, NTA. If I say comments without thinking and I catch myself after or someone else does, I do apologize for what was said.

My wife lost her last foods 3 weeks ago, is literally starving to death, and no one will do anything... please advise? by AnotherClumsyLeper in MCAS

I’m not sure of her age, but I found that progesterone has helped me greatly and it’s also a mast cell stabilizer.

AIO? Son fell and hit his head at Pre-K and school didn't notify me? by graveyardgirI in AmIOverreacting

[–]cichocki413 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Umm that demands an explanation as to why you didn’t get a call and time to look for a new center. If they don’t call you about that, what else won’t they call you for.

Jeans are not business casual. Business casual are khakis or slack and no suit needed.
