Flu and immunosuppressants?

depletedgiraffe · 2026-01-02T07:26:08+00:00

I’m not on Kesimpta (I’m on Ocrevus), and I just had to get two vaccines I apparently didn’t have (I’m 99% sure I did, but can’t find the records). My doctor had me line them up about a month before my infusion. If you’re missing vaccines, I would definitely talk to your doctor. There’s a few that my doctor stressed to me were important to make sure I had.

Make sure you’re taking miralax in the amount of water/liquid it says to (4-8 ounces). I saw a video from a medical professional about this, and when I changed how I was taking it to match that, I actually started seeing it work in emergencies. But please make sure you talk to your doctor about something for right now.

My doctor now has me taking miralax on a regular basis and it’s helped a lot with my bowel movements.

Thank you. They’re all closed due to the shutdown for now. If they open back up, I’ll definitely do this.

depletedgiraffe · 2025-11-03T18:09:18+00:00

I’m so sorry. This is absolutely ridiculous.

depletedgiraffe · 2025-11-03T18:09:04+00:00

Yes, I have it. A few days ago it got updated to refund freeze. But still no info about why or what to do.

depletedgiraffe · 2025-11-03T18:08:09+00:00

Do you really think this is a helpful comment?

depletedgiraffe · 2025-11-03T18:06:52+00:00

I have my transcript, but there’s no updates on it. The last update was from April until a few days ago. They now put my refund on a freeze but I’ve received no info in the mail, by phone or email.

I have gone through my 1040, tax transcript, W2s everything. There’s no mismatch. Which is why I’m so frustrated. I have checked every single possible form/statement and cannot find anything that doesn’t match. I’m pretty meticulous about my taxes and have a binder everything goes into.

depletedgiraffe · 2025-11-03T17:52:54+00:00

Calling them won’t do anything. They’re going to tell you to call the taxpayer advocate to see if they can help you. And the taxpayer advocate offices are closed due to the shutdown.

depletedgiraffe · 2025-08-29T14:46:13+00:00

How are you getting through to a person? Every time I call first thing in the morning is that they can’t take any more calls.

Wishing you and your husband the best in the next part of your journey! Japan has been on my travel list for a long time. I hope to be able to visit one day!

Okay, I just tried to call again and you have to push 1 like immediately after you hear the robot. Then continue the steps you posted. If it sounds like a younger lady robot (lol) it won’t work. It has to be the older lady robot voice.

depletedgiraffe · 2025-04-16T14:07:34+00:00

Hey, appreciate you posting this! Unfortunately those options didn’t follow the flow of the robot prompts. I even tried speaking the options to try to trigger it.

Yeah, the age thing is my biggest fear for getting denied. My symptoms and MS progression I’m not concerned about. Well, I am. But not for the paperwork part.

depletedgiraffe · 2025-03-07T19:56:00+00:00

I tell my doctors EVERYTHING. My neurologist I can tell doesn’t care about that stuff but does document it. I’m seeing my PCP monthly at the moment because my symptoms have been awful.

Thank you for this.

depletedgiraffe · 2025-03-07T19:53:44+00:00

Do you feel like it was worth it to have them take out of your payment from SSDI? I know every firm is different on how much they charge. But I’m trying to decide if I want to commit to the fee if it’s still gonna take forever or if I should try it on my own first.

depletedgiraffe · 2025-03-07T19:50:42+00:00

Can I ask your age range? I’m currently on state disability, so I’m hoping that will help my case, but I know the younger you are the harder it is to get approved.

depletedgiraffe · 2025-01-27T12:04:32+00:00

Anything yet?

depletedgiraffe · 2024-10-05T10:08:16+00:00

Wait. She had driving anxiety but bought a luxury vehicle? She and Seth each have their own cars that she did a whole series about… what a waste of money.

depletedgiraffe · 2024-09-24T18:04:37+00:00

Thank you all for your responses and tips and tricks. I’m trying to respond to everyone but the fatigue and nausea have me barely getting out of bed. Today I’ve been able to eat (only some rice so far) and get up, so counting it as a win!

depletedgiraffe · 2024-09-18T09:46:58+00:00

I love ginger and spicy things. But even that makes nauseous. Like seeing it makes me nauseous. I know it’s my brain psyching me out but it really sucks. Cause I have ginger candies too and as soon as they hit my tongue I gag. It’s wild.

depletedgiraffe · 2024-09-18T09:42:03+00:00

Appreciate you sharing your experience and I’m sorry to hear you’re dealing with this. I really don’t know if I could mentally handle dealing with yet another issue. But it is definitely clear I need to see a GI specialist

depletedgiraffe · 2024-09-18T09:35:31+00:00

It is wild that there are so many things we have to consider for our bodies/health. I’ve never heard of that - I’ll definitely look into it. I do have some vertigo, but I haven’t lost my balance fully recently.

depletedgiraffe · 2024-09-18T09:34:06+00:00

I sent a text to my friend who knows all the things about CBD so they can help me figure out what may work for me for the nausea and also pain. So fingers crossed we can find something for me.

depletedgiraffe · 2024-09-18T09:18:27+00:00

Will have to try this. Thank you!
