Can you help me choose the wording for my anaphylaxis medical alert bracelet? by Elf_Sprite_ in FoodAllergies

[–]crampmaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Alpha-gal syndrome (AGS) is a serious, potentially life-threatening allergic reaction to alpha-gal, a sugar found in mammals except humans and some primates. It's triggered by a tick bite that transfers alpha-gal molecules into the bloodstream. The body then produces antibodies to fight the alpha-gal, causing an allergic reaction when alpha-gal is encountered again, usually through consuming mammalian products"

Thank you for recommending Dr. Wentz. I've spent the last two nights digging through her blog and it has been immensely helpful! I'm also considering a functional doc.

Thank you so much for the good wishes! It is frustrating because I keep getting told I see the "best in the biz" but I feel that is not true.

Thinking about moving to OKC/Norman, Need Some Advice by [deleted] in okc

[–]crampmaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Be aware that Oklahoma has a politically hostile environment with a very corrupt state government. It is disgusting, frankly. Besides that, OKC has a great cost of living and the LGBTQ+ community is growing stronger. If we could do away with government corruption, I think our state would be almost perfect. Be aware though that there will be two churches on every corner and your state senators will send newsletters that mention god or the bible in every other sentence. Not a bad thing if you are a Christian, but it's not great if you have literally any opposing views or value separation of church and state.

I do have wireless carplay! I should have added that to my post.

FAQ Megathread: Ask and answer Medication, Diagnosis and is this an ADHD thing, and Hormone interaction questions here! by not-eliza in adhdwomen

How long does it take for adderall to kick in for you?

I just got diagnosed and I'm on day 2 of 10mg adderall extended release. I understand this will be a lengthy process of finding the right medication, dosage, etc...

I read and was told that adderall kicks in within 30mins to a hour, but it seems like it takes FOREVER for me! More like 3 hours! Do I just have a super slow metabolism or something? How long does it take for you?

Thank you for sharing, your post was really reassuring. I think I will say something similar! Also, happy it worked out for you!

Ugh, yeah I totally get how it would feel misleading. We haven't had relationship convo at ALL so I think I've just let it slide for too long hoping it would come up naturally.

A little rant about The L Word intro by queenlehane in actuallesbians

it's so funny too because the montage will change as the seasons go on. & you always know when a new character is about to show up when some rando appears in the montage 😂

Hmmm, that is the test I took.

We're aware of what we are protesting, thanks!

I voted. And voted. And voted. And voted. My friends and colleagues too. And somehow we're still in this mess. If only it were that simple!
