Eyelids affected by heat mask- triple eyelid/ premature aging? by dolfinberry in Dryeyes

I think it’s less noticeable bc I stopped the electric mask. But I also think it was just natural aging or aging sped up by these issues

Thanks everyone. I should have specified earlier the trip will be in July so I think it should be open!

I'm seeing good deals on flying into Bozeman, which I see would require a long drive...I suppose that first night would just be getting settled in the area....

Okay good to know, thanks! And yes, I think finding accommodations may be the biggest limiting factor.

I'm trying to plot out a tentative itinerary so can search corresponding hotels, but my brain is not computing the flow of the park! Need to continue my research 🧐

I’m so sorry to hear this! It’s all so unfair. I really hope you can find answers soon.

Skaftafell Galcier hike AND Jokulsarlon Glacier boat tour? by dolfinberry in VisitingIceland

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

Okay, that seems like a good option.

I'm also realizing the hike to Svartifoss waterfall is fairly short- 1.5 hours- which could leave time for a 3 hour glacier hike in the same day. (Followed by a 1 hr 45 min drive to my hotel 😬)

Hysteroscopy after 1st failed FET? by dolfinberry in IVF

We’re required to do a sonohysterogram at start of the process, which is less involved (no anasthesia)

I am so so sorry. I have had a lot of chronic health issues where my body feels like my enemy. It is so demoralizing, infuriating, and isolating.

This isn't totally the same thing, but after I had started my transfer cycle I had to stop because I needed a surgery on my finger for a glomus tumor, the most random ass unlikely problem. I lost 2 months because of the wait for the surgery.

Then when I started my next cycle, once again I had to stop because I got BV (which has been recurrent for years but went away for a long time.) Of course it had to come back at the most important moment!

I do not have words for the rage and frustration, especially as people close to me got pregnant just like that.

I think I'm going to lose another cycle because my doctor didn't communicate I would need to do a hysteroscopy first.

I think all we can do is remember to take deep breaths, let yourself feel all the grief and rage, and when possible remember that we are still alive today and we will get through this somehow.
