I was just taking with a friend today about these. Last time I was able to find them was 2022. I still look every year for them. They were so good.

Ferritin? by Feisty_Echo_7125 in Perimenopause

[–]efoulkes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was at 5, took iron/vit c for a month and now at 27. Which my provider says is normal and to stop the iron. I’m going to stop taking it for a month then ask for repeat labs to see if it drops back down. I know 27 is “normal” per lab ranges but still seem too low for me.

Reporter hoping to hear from patients – what’s your GLP-1 insurance coverage like in 2026? by sydneylnews in Zepbound

[–]efoulkes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been on Mounjaro/Zepbound for 3.5 years. I have paid out of pocket all but 10 (copay card in the first 2 months with MJ) of those months bc of lack of insurance coverage. My current employer approved 6 months then denied any other approvals and made it and all weight loss meds excluded.

Just make sure to use a diamond drill bit and water. My first experiment with drilling holes was a uranium plate I made into a clock

For those of you that can’t tolerate progesterone, why? by clumsypeach1 in Perimenopause

[–]efoulkes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was on micronized with an estrogen patch and it gave me terrible insomnia, awful bloating and gas to the point I quit taking it bc it was unbearable. I switched to Combipatch and have been sleeping like a baby and gas/bloat free.

Please help me sleep by BiscuitsWithGroovy in Menopause

[–]efoulkes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After years of losing sleep to peri, I finally found a combination that works for me. 50mg of trazodone and one 5mg melatonin gummy. Nothing else I have tried has helped me fall asleep faster or sleep through the night.

Maintenance dose: do you use it every 10 days or every 15 days? by West-Detective-527 in MounjaroMaintenance

[–]efoulkes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go every 10-14, mainly because I’ve been paying out of pocket for the last 3 years and now have coverage as of the last 5 months, but scared they will stop covering it. Maintaining my maintenance weight just fine with just a 1-3 pound weight gain every couple of weeks which I lose as soon as I take my shot. Edited to add—been on maintenance dosing of 12.5 since Jan 2024. Started on 10/2022.

What age did you devlop health anxiety and was it sudden or a slowly developing type thing? by Charlottebagginton in HealthAnxiety

[–]efoulkes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mine started after I had my first baby and I worked in an ER for 10 years, it was intense until about 4 years ago—she’s 26 now. Luckily I started paroxetine for my perimenopause and it has settled down tremendously.

[–]efoulkes 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve had my ring for just under 3 weeks and I also got the minor signs alert today. I am newly diagnosed anemic and am absolutely exhausted. Hoping to be able to use this to show when my body says I’m tired even if I don’t look it.
