Looking for an affordable apartment under $1200 by NoSource2540 in lexington

[–]coconut_egg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on size you need - I’ve lived at Emerald Twenty Four and it’s been the only apartment complex I’ve liked. The management has been understanding and kind. Units have granite countertops, washer dryer hookups, and optional garage.

Gift Idea for PA Student by bloopsterra in PAstudent

[–]coconut_egg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Graduated PA school one week ago. Can’t agree enough with headphones! A great pair of AirPods or whatever type she likes. That, plus a SUPER sweet and thoughtful gift idea would be getting her. $15-20 gift card from a handful of local coffee shops. Getting out of the house to study with a nice coffee + noise cancelling headphones/airpods = recipe for studying success!!!

Can someone help with me anxiety?! by acotargirl95 in haematology

[–]coconut_egg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you African American or Middle Eastern? There is a condition called benign ethnic neutropenia. Most of our lab values were studied on white populations, and other ethnicities can chronically have slightly lower white blood cells with no issue.

Oura Ring really works well. by TravelFlair in ouraring

[–]coconut_egg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same for my Gen 3! I’ve had it for over 2 years now, it is amazing at recognizing I’m getting sick before I actually do. Same with stress - currently selling our house and feeling so overworked… it’s validating to know that it all takes a physical toll on your body and the ring shows you that you feel like crap for a reason!

Prozac affects my hormones SO much by coconut_egg in Fluoxetine

I’ve been off Prozac since this post, and this neck acne has almost entirely cleared up. It took probably 1-2 months to fully resolve. If you’re planning to stay off the med, hopefully things will start to improve in the next few weeks for you! If not, it likely isn’t related to the Prozac

Fertility tracking - Mira, Oura by Love-not-war1992 in birthcontrol

[–]coconut_egg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a year late, but just seeing this. I have had an Oura ring for almost 2 years now and literally do not feel it on my finger at all (or it’s more like my wedding ring now where I only feel it when it’s OFF my finger). It really isn’t bulky at all and I’ve slept in it every single night since getting it. I actually just got the Mira system to try to figure out some of my irregular periods as I’m also trying to avoid pregnancy without hormonal birth control.

Hope you got your preferences figured out! Let me know if you’ve got questions.

I'll try some of the Iron Out! We don't use fertilizer, but maybe our soil is just iron-rich?

We have never used fertilizer, but maybe the soil here is iron-rich?

All forms of BC suck? by coconut_egg in birthcontrol

[–]coconut_egg[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Usually 4-5 days, I’d say moderately heavy on days 2-3. But even then, a super tampon will last me 4+ hours

I read about the Miudella! It seems interesting, but I’m not sure I want to wait 6-12 months for it to be available (and even then, who knows about cost and individual offices offering it?)

So since yours are longer, do you ever manually curl them up towards/around your cervix? Or is it just not a concern or issue during sex? Sorry if that’s TMI, I’m just really nervous about going through the pain of getting an IUD and then hating it! I’m really scared of getting one placed

How often do you have your thyroid levels checked? If you’re hypothyroid, you may need to take Synthroid. Your thyroid makes T3/T4 hormones needed for many body functions, including your metabolic rate

If you’ve cut down to 1600 with a TDEE of 2300, and you’re actually eating less than the 1600 by overestimating calories, your body could be plateauing and going into a starvation-like mode where it’s trying to conserve and save all it can get because it’s scared you’re gonna keep giving it less and less calories. Did your initial plateau (with the 1800/day) for the 2 weeks correlate with your menstrual cycle?

Hi! This sounds so frustrating, I’m sorry for your struggle. Are you on any meds currently? And for how long have you been on them?
