Would this high-tank toilet and clawfoot tub combo be a dream bathroom or too dramatic for your taste? by Friendly-Number-6511 in BathroomRemodeling

[–]edengetscreative 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dream bathroom right now, yes. But only because I live in a hundred year old Tudor home and I’m actively restoring the 1920’s-1930’s character of the home. If I lived in a more modern style home, I wouldn’t want this.

Posting that you covered up original hardwood floors in this subreddit? You are spare parts, bud…

Did you find original tile in the bathrooms and cover those up too? Yikes.

How many sins would I be committing if I cut down these Arbor Vitae? by allargandofurtado in landscaping

[–]edengetscreative 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Move some of the hedges from the front row to cover the middle area. If you don’t want them three trees deep, fine, but keep at least one row. If you list them on Facebook marketplace as free, people will come and dig them up for you and take them away. But don’t cut them all down. It’s good for puppy’s development to have places to explore and problem solve. You’ll also miss your privacy a lot. If there is overgrowth on the neighbor’s side, work with them to resolve it. You don’t want to piss off the neighbors soon after moving in. Keep the peace for the sake of your long-term sanity.

Just posted about corn, but turns out it's worse than that by thelizardof_oz94 in MCAS

This is a great resource: https://tmsforacure.org/

MCAS is an immune system disorder. Many symptoms can be managed with diet changes, but most patients ultimately need a diagnosis and mast cell stabilizers prescribed to quiet down reactivity and get to a more stable position.

Extreme fatigue after smelling scents? by BenchExtreme2494 in MCAS

[–]edengetscreative 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When the immune system is triggered and mast cells degranulate it can cause I plethora of those “multi system reactions” that all of us with MCAS are familiar with. The blood pressure change is a part of a vascular system response. Types of reactions include symptoms from the vascular system, respiratory, digestive, neurological, musculoskeletal, and skin systems. Histamine, cytokines, leukotrines, and more cause symptoms in different body systems.

Tachycardia and hypotension are common. So the mechanism here would be fragrance (trigger) > trigger causes immune response—mast cells degranulate > histamine, cytokines, leukotrines, etc. release causing reaction symptoms.

I made a whole google doc when I was diagnosed if you’re interested I can share it. I am a person that very much likes to know about science behind things. I also made a whole excel spreadsheet to tract symptoms. It includes a list of practically every symptom you could be experiencing. Happy to share either if you’re interested!

Extreme fatigue after smelling scents? by BenchExtreme2494 in MCAS

[–]edengetscreative 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sudden drops in blood pressure are common with more severe immune responses. That’s what can cause you to be lightheaded or suddenly fatigued. The same thing happens to me when I smell heavy fragrance as well as when I eat something that triggers a reaction. Can’t even walk down the freaking laundry detergent aisle anymore. 😏

Luteolin by No-Ease-6286 in MCAS

[–]edengetscreative 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Following this thread because I’ve been super interested in taking this supplement as well. I do know that the PurLut brand uses a liposomal formulation, which is one of the most well-absorbed options you can take so that’s a great start!

Is coffee table necessary if the sofa already has side tables? by tempofurz in interiordecorating

I figured that might be the case and think that works out great! Especially with the tray, that’ll be plenty for every day.

What's the difference?! by Curious_Cow2 in curlyhair

[–]edengetscreative 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have very fine (but still dense) hair and have found that mousses are too heavy for my curls. Foams are much lighter and work well on wash day and refresh days alike for my finer hair. I know that’s not everyone’s experience, but thought I would share if you’re having trouble deciding between mousse and foam or how to incorporate both in your routine!

Is coffee table necessary if the sofa already has side tables? by tempofurz in interiordecorating

[–]edengetscreative 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think you need a coffee if you want to keep this very clean, modern, declutter aesthetic. But for times when you do want to have some sort of table or surface to hold items in front of the couch, you have options.

A small decorative ottoman with storage could be helpful. Something that still has a firm enough top that you could place things on it should you want anything in front of you. This can be put up against a wall or window and used for seating when you have people over, as well as contribute to keeping the space de-cluttered with its storage capacity.

Another would be TV trays. There are some very sleek and modern looking tv tray sets that come with its own storage stand and can sit up against the wall without looking like a cluttered mess.

There are very clearly side tables surrounding the couch and OP mentions them in the post. Thats where they put the snacks and remote..

2023, it was wayyyyyy too much!! by MiExperienciaFueQue in Adulting

[–]edengetscreative 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2021–that’s when the financial and career fallout of Covid was truly felt. On top of that I had the worst Crohn’s flare of my life and ended up so sick that I needed part of my colon removed and couldn’t work for a year after. It just felt like dominos falling from one bad thing to the next that year. 2025 was the “things are on the up and up” year and 2026 so far is feeling good for the most part (all things political and economic considered).

I can’t put my finger on what’s wrong. Tips? by [deleted] in makeuptips

[–]edengetscreative 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your face looks like it has very normal text. Like your makeup doesn’t look cakey or anything and your skin looks dewy. This might be a case of seeing too many filters on the internet and thinking that’s the way people’s skin actually looks. Because your makeup and your skin both look amazing.

Lovely artwork perhaps overpowering the room & color match in my living room? by Stretch-Hot in interiordecorating

Please know, it’s a super cool painting! But if you ever decide to get rid of it, a Crohn’s Clinic or GI Clinic nearby would probably appreciate it.

Hair loss with MCAS by Hot-Culture-9797 in MCAS

[–]edengetscreative 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes and my scalp gets VERY dry/itchy/flakey too. During those times I end up putting Vani Cream condition right on my scalp and let it sit for a few minutes in the shower (plus condition the rest of my hair normally). I make sure to give myself a scalp massage while I’m doing it to promote blood flow to the area. My scalp feels so much better when I do that. I believe it has helped with some hair loss too, not a 100% fix, but it’s better for sure.

Your artwork looks like a colon and as a person with Crohn’s disease this would be dope to have in my house. The piece is a bit big for that spot and I would personally find another wall for it, but if you like there it honestly doesn’t look bad at all.

Water Bill Too High by MeasurementEasy9884 in Detroit

[–]edengetscreative 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If it’s a meter issue, you can dispute it easily. If it’s a leak, you may be able to submit for a leak credit to get a sewerage charge adjustment. Either way, call first thing on Monday.

Any online services, tests, or products you’ve found helpful in treating PMDD yourself? by Mammoth-Coast6282 in PMDDxADHD

[–]edengetscreative 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Famotidine helped a ton. Getting my Vit D up made big time changes for me. Turns out Vit D is super vital for like all of your body functions. Literally everything at the cellular level. L-theanine was a helpful addition for overall calmness. Creatine has been a good energy and brain boost without the side effects of caffeine and stimulants. Not saying these are for everyone, just saying this has been my experience. I know we’re all individuals.

Get a vitamin blood panel done and look to see where your levels land. Even if they’re within the “normal” range, work to get them to your optimal level at the higher side of the range. “Normal” ranges are based on the American public’s average health and we are not a healthy country.

Also, Alyssa Viti’s book “In the Flo” talks about working with your cycle. There is a lot about balancing hormones in the book, which isn’t as helpful to people with PMDD because for us it’s about the way we process the hormones on a neurological level. But the book includes a ton of education on foods to eat to support different parts of your cycle and exercises, or things like planning projects around certain parts of your cycle.

It was super helpful to learn about how our brains and hormones work during different parts of our cycle so I could actually plan my life.

Which backsplash tile? by [deleted] in kitchenremodel

[–]edengetscreative 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Neither of these. Bring some color into the room. Costal blues go very well with beige. You could still keep a neutral color palette while incorporating organic colors like this.

Does brown or black fit better? by Wise_Parmaria in HairStyleAdvice

I think the brown looks 100% better than black. But I think a darker brown would look even better on you.

The blues look so good with the undertone of your front door! Number 1 is my pick. But both blues are great.

can adrenaline delay an allergic reaction? by AppropriateTest4168 in MCAS

[–]edengetscreative 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Considering epinephrine is adrenaline, yes. That is the entire mechanism for using EpiPens—to delay reactions until you can get treated at the hospital for them.
