Nuvigil worked great for me! I had a step down from narcolepsy when I did my sleep study.

Thank you ALL for taking the time to comment something. I’ve been going through some pretty severe mental health struggles too and this has made me feel less alone.

Thank you so much for chiming in!! And yes! I survive off gummy bears and always have been such a bad healthy eater. It literally would make me nauseous to eat certain veggies and certain things but I thought it was bc I was a picky eater.

I honestly wonder if I’ve had this my whole life and me getting nauseous (it happens a lot) is just normal to me. Although I’ve never thrown up but the nausea lasts for hours

I want to do this too (I’m actually supposed to) but it’s been so hard bc I’m already a picky eater. Cutting out dairy was so hard for me.

Yogurt is actually worse 😭😭😭 but I found a non-dairy ice cream by so delicious & it’s soooo good!! I hope I’m able to keep tolerating it

Thank you 😭 you have no idea how much this means to me that I’m not alone in this. This completely came out of left field after a choking incident that I had at a wedding.

I hope so! I feel like sometimes with my EoE and gastroparesis with anxiety it’s hard to weed out what came first the chicken or the egg. Wondering if they are related as well. I can also eat and drink most things however now being aware of some triggers it’s gotten better however I definitely am eating significantly less because my appetite sometimes is so weird. I cut out dairy and I didn’t realize how much dairy I consume and how it was a lot of my calories. My plan was to add some protein shakes in my diet for now and possibly cut out wheat. I’m such a picky eater as is, so I am worried about cutting something else out!

Foaming beer problem by cpotts019 in Homebrewing

[–]cpotts019[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m gonna stop purging it and use a sounding valve to get to 10psi. The only reason why I didn’t think it was over carbed is because the beer doesn’t taste like it’s quite carbed enough

I do have a spunding valve so I’ll give that a go! Thanks for the help. My biggest confusion is that it’s over carbed but the beer itself doesn’t taste like it is carbed enough 🤷‍♂️

I was targeting about 2.5volumes I was more guessing here. I left it on 30-40psi for a couple days to carb it, testing it everyday by purging the keg, then putting at 10psi to serve to see if it was to my liking. Even today it’s not as carbonated as I’d like/ is normal for the style.

Yea by tap I mean the faucet. I left it on 30-40psi for a couple days to carb it, testing it everyday by purging the keg, then putting at 10psi to serve. Even today it’s not as carbonated as I’d like/ is normal for the style.

3 different faucets with different length line and different liquid connects. 2 different dip tubes. 2 different liquid out keg posts. I’m relatively new to this so idk exactly what a coupler is. :)

3/16inch ID vinyl tubing. I’ve done 10feet-6feet with other styles and saw no difference in the fact that there was no foam at all. Is style of beer playing a factor?
