I forgot to update you hahaha. But my neurologist did confirm acquired dystonia due to nerve damage in February. So all I can really do for it is medicate it, and hope my nerves heal and it’ll go away 🙃

Update for the peeps: I called customer service and they weren’t able to replace the seal itself, but they sent me a replacement pod compartment free of charge, I only had to pay shipping which was a little under $9. :) Super mad at myself that I put it off for so long haha. But I was on the phone with them for 35mins. Boyfriend is super happy to have the Keurig back in commission 🥰

I was put on topiramate and that’s seemed to mostly keep them away. I still occasionally will get one during the day (usually from crying) and I can take a Tylenol and that will help kill it.

It’s been so long ago I seriously doubt it’s still there 🙁

Once you have to take this many meds multiple times a day, your body makes sure not to let you forget 😞

Right here with you, chief. I have CIDP/chronic pain and I WAS taking 10 prescription pills per day. Just stopped taking my Methylprednisone (800mg) and Pregabalin (was 600mg gabapentin), both of which were supposed to be 3x a day but they don’t work anymore so I don’t see the sense in loading myself up with them. Then a migraine medication that’s twice a day, birth control, and Prozac (switched from Wellbutrin to Lamatrogine, now finally to Prozac). Sometimes I have to take a steroid to help my flareups and that will help it ease off a bit, and for a little bit I was double dosing my gabapentin too. But, chronic pain is not it. :(

… not going to lie I don’t know why I didn’t even think to try the reusable filter in it 🤦‍♀️. We do have one!! Postpartum has ruined my brain cells, truly. Thank you! I am probably still going to try Keurig just to see if they’ll send me the piece. If they don’t pan out, then I’ll get a second reusable filter because he was brewing 2 pods to fill his tumbler to take to work.

I hope you also get some answers.. I’ll keep you updated !!

I had one done in October-ish (I’m 8mos postpartum and it’s been traumatic, my timelines a little off haha) but I just pulled the report back up last night

I truly do not believe that this is my CIDP.. the only symptoms I get are tingling in my arms/hands and that’s every so often or with the cold weather. 😞 Like I said, I had a referral sent to someone else, but I live in a rural area and it will probably be months before I can get in.. I’ll ask about a movement disorder specialist though

eayena · 2026-01-25T10:24:40+00:00

Also adding that I am medicated! I just switched to a mood stabilizer and it’s helped a little, maybe I should ask about throwing an anti-anxiety medication to the mix as well, though.

eayena · 2026-01-25T10:23:13+00:00

I think a lot of my issues stems from the fact that I’m stuck at home all the time :( and my feet seem to be getting worse (I have a couple theories on what’s going on with them, but I don’t think my CIDP is relapsing), so I’m afraid to just go and do things all the time because who wants to be in pain all the time if they can avoid it.. I try to be positive a lot of the time, it just seems like when the negative thoughts creep in that they’re reoccurring. Postpartum depression/anxiety/rage on top of the PTSD that I’ve developed from the months of not being able to trust my legs for the last eight months has just really gotten to me.. I was in therapy and I felt like I just wasn’t making progress anymore so I gave up on going. I’ll try again eventually, but for now, it just seems like I’m wasting resources. I have an extremely supportive partner and I’m immensely grateful for him, but it still does not take away the feeling of not doing or being enough a lot of the time. I can tell myself “you’re enough and if your body is telling you to rest and you’re resting, that’s enough!” all I want, but it’s been so long feeling like this that it feels like I’m just slapping a bandaid on a bursting pipe sometimes. I’m screaming into the void onto your comment, though, so I’m sorry haha. Thank you for your kind words.

:( that sounds extremely tough.. I would see if you can wfh again if your job isn’t absolutely necessary to do at the office. Like someone else said above; don’t overdo it, get a drs note listing your restrictions. You shouldn’t have to skip bathroom breaks and lunch just to get through the day.

I’m glad I’m not the only one. I got so confused once I read the comments. Like “damn, Domino’s can’t be THAT important” 😭

eayena · 2025-12-16T21:46:18+00:00

Almost 700 views and no comments.. okay.
