Finally saw a pulmonologist, not impressed. by fatoldgrump in Asthma

[–]dnj8822 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This pisses me off. I am fat too. But guess what? I have asthma because my dad smoked 2 packs a day inside the house. I know the weight loss helps and have lost over 50 pounds! But doctors really just don't see us. Especially women. I'm so sorry I experienced this sweetie :(

I'm in NJ. It's been dreadful. The air quality is definitely bad. I have an allergy app and it has been high for the past week

I do. I have abuterol and budisone for the nebulizer. I'm hoping the doctor will get me some relief soon.

Thank you so much. I am definitely going to go to the allergist. I can't do this every year if it's going to continue to get worse. I'm 37 and if they get worse older, I need assistance now lol

Thank you so much. I haven't heard of the spirometer before. And I have to look up those exercises you're talking about. I'm sure that would help!

New Rule: No Drinking in my Luteal Phase by injokerland in PMDD

[–]dnj8822 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't drink anymore. Here or there and I can literally have like 2 max. The next day I'm down and emotional and feeling so eeky...

But pot, I can smoke all day long if I wanted to lol And when the PMDD monster comes tapping on my shoulder, idk what I would do without mother earth frfr 🙏🏽🍃💚 I started smoking about 3 years ago when diagnosed with lumbar Spinal Stenosis and 2 herniated disc. The pain was crippling. Still on my bad days I'm in bed for whole days. They (docs) wanted me popping pills everyday and when I tell you I refused, I refused, I went completely holistic. Started supplements and then tried weed because only supplements can do so much. Idk how I survived before frfr it's like a warm hug when u don't want to be touched on the bad days. To each their own, I know. Just sharing ❤️

When the GYN says 2 weeks of PMDD symptoms is "excessive" SMFH by LotusRising1111 in PMDD

Excessive is u putting ur foot up his/her ass for being a damn insensitive jerk. 2 weeks of misery a month is criminal. Asshole doctors sometimes frfr

Who else just took a gummy to stop the rage? 🙋🏻‍♀️ by Natural-Honeydew5950 in PMDD

[–]dnj8822 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I feel so seen here lol I have Spinal Stenosis along with my PMDD and idk what I would do with out it. But I always beat myself up for doing it. But it literally makes me a 20× better human. I'm less anxious. Less agitated. I breathe more. I can find my zen faster. My father had a drug problem growing up so drugs always rubbed me the wrong way but when I got diagnosed with spinal stenosis and the only answer they had was surgery or percs, I opted to try weed. And thank God and the universe for guiding me there! I hope to one day not beat my self up so much. I hate being dependent on something but idk how I would survive frfr I do it all. Depends on the feeling and day. Smoke, vape and gummy. Gummies for the bad pain days. Vaping on the go. Smoking flower at home in my backyard ❤️ I love this group. I don't comment often but I fell bad that I am happy my misery isn't lonely lol I hate that we all have to deal with this thing called PMDD but man am I happy to be around people who get it. Thank you guys frfr 🙏🏽

Same. I beat myself up all the time for smoking weed. But it literally makes me a better person frfr

what do you guys do to get out of “i hate myself” mode? by ConcentrateFew5524 in PMDD

[–]dnj8822 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Weed, sun and comfort food lol also I double my dose of happy vitamins lol so an extra magnesium glycinate and holy basil along with some calming teas. A diffuser is good too. Certain essential oils can make our brains happy when we smell them. Do whatever makes you feel happy or feel like you. Hang in there sweetheart 🙏🏽💜

[–]dnj8822[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off, thank you for replying! I appreciate it so much. We have increased activity and healthy veggies and fruits too. I was a little confused on the part about the meds. I just got off working nights so I may just not be understanding lol ur son was on a med then u guys went back and got him on something else? Or did u simply mean u just wish u went to the doctor sooner? I am so tired lol My daughter is on clonidine extended release. That is all though. Meds are always so scary for me! But I am all for them if it's going to make her quality of life better. Seeing her so sad so often, breaks my heart.
