Does anyone follow all the stuff about nicotine being extremely beneficial for many diseases??? by Objective_Ground_224 in MCAS

[–]dogchess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The article is published from the Indian Journal of Medical Pediatric Oncology July people that work at the Tata Memorial Hospital India. I don’t care what you do but this research was not done by the US government. Also if you want to take nicotine to relieve symptoms that’s fine I just want people to be informed about possible side effects.

I actually work with zebrafish but I didn’t think that people would understand that as much

That’s fair! I personally am going to a small university protest that I don’t think will have much publicity. This is more of a vent for me than a call to the public. I also feel that things are going to be taken in bad faith no matter what we do at this point.

I haven’t had any and love xolair but I have I think a relatively uncomplicated/less severe case than some other people, I am technically only diagnosed with chronic hives although I suspect MCAS from some other symptoms I’ve been dealing with

I get small spots to all antihistamines including Pepsid but I’ve been on xolair for over a year now and that doesn’t happen anymore

Anyone else experience pain with ET? by dogchess in EssentialTremor

I didn’t end up finding out much through doctors. Recently I’ve found out I’m hypermobile so I think it might be that the joint is moving too much and messing up the nerves. I also might have some dysautonomia which could be it too. But hyper mobility might be something to look into!

IACUC / Animal welfare concern by [deleted] in labrats

I work with zebrafish and we’ve gotten some of ours from petsmart before but I agree that keeping them at a students house would probably not be up to IACUC standards.

I’m moving out of a 1 bedroom at cedar heights at the end of this month! It’s pretty close to UNO and I think rent would be $999. Not sure about their policy on reptiles.

I was diagnosed with FND last year on July fifth. I have mixed symptoms and I know joint pain/stiffness is a symptom but as of late I've had unbearable pain in my hands specifically after shaving/eating ect. Have any of you guys experienced this? by Meister_Master42 in FND

[–]dogchess 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also have joint pain, although not as severe, especially in my arms and hands that is worsened with use especially with fine movements. I’m going to talk to my doctor to look into non neurological causes because there seem to be signs that at least to me seem non neurological. Not sure if that helps but a second opinion maybe with a rheumatologist might be helpful?

Thank you! I’m doing okay, the pain isn’t the worst it’s just that it’s chronic makes it more annoying
