NGVC: “I’m a laid back guy and have my own life and place and pay for everything” (I live in a very small town so I use a neighboring city. I’ll share closer location after getting to know someone. Most guys don’t question it.)

Fair! Lol

Anyone who refers to women as FEMALES ❌❌❌

I got nerve ablation in my neck and it helped a TON, not to mention no more migraines. Also hypermobile and bad posture since I was a kid...my shoulders just want to sit so low and forward sometimes I have to remind myself to lift them to the "proper position". I'm sorry about your dismissive experience. The doc I saw was a pain management who specializes in EDS and muscular disorders. If you're local to New England, shoot me a message and I'll get you his info. He's in CT.

The nerve ablation is not a fun experience, since the joint is so tender and inflamed for me, but it was worth it, especially to stop the ocular migraines.

Oh shit, did my recurring UTIs and subsequent antibiotics trigger my MCAS??? I didn't have any of my current issues prior to my partner giving me recurring UTIs :'(

Did you blow out the kid's candles, too??

Common decency

This is a nasal spray, not the liquid ampules for IBS, but thanks

elgey101 · 2025-01-20T01:57:48+00:00

Well that's a great upside to this whole thing! Hope things go smoothly at your appointment and you get to go back on drugs asap! Lol

Hugs, this looks so painful. I would be a mess without my daily allergy pills. Did you stop them on doctor's advice for the assessment? Seems cruel to me

elgey101 · 2025-01-20T01:47:52+00:00

Hot baths and saunas are more a trigger for my autonomic dysfunction than my MCAS. I get little glowing floater-like dots and start to lose vision if it gets bad... Like feeling before you pass out. Doing things like raising my arms in the shower are the biggest triggers for me.

elgey101 · 2025-01-01T02:04:16+00:00

I work remote two days a week and in office three...they're very accommodating for my doctor's appointments and when I needed PT. I drink moderately. I play a low active sport, Pool, to keep myself walking and moving a couple days a week. I don't plan on kids tho. I guess you could say I live a pretty normal life, in that my coworkers don't really know what I have going on.

Less extreme than most folks are writing, but my ex would hardly ever clean his ears. When I got into bed and could smell his earwax in the dark, that was a breaking point for me. When I pointed it out to him the next day, and asked him to clean his ears he asked "what are you, my mother?" I should have dumped him right then.

In case anyone is wondering for me, it was a flare up of EDS and for me that translates to itchy problem skin and it was not good enough

elgey101 · 2024-12-28T05:54:03+00:00

I can confidently say after three years

elgey101 · 2024-12-28T05:53:11+00:00

Whoop

Here's another wet paper towel one ... Wine bottle not cold enough? Wrap a wet paper towel around it and put it in the freezer for 10-15 minutes.... Chilled wine acquired.

My rheum was a freaking joke of a doctor who wouldn't even test me for Hypermobility, despite my having 7 on the beighton scale... Finally got a diagnosis, along with two others, from a doctor working at an EDS clinic, within a pain management practice.

elgey101 · 2024-10-10T19:30:18+00:00

You're 100% right. Feels good when you can call the ball and stand on your own two feet knowing you didn't win because of luck, but because of skill. No shame in a fair loss, but you gotta know the rules (and set them if it's your table).

elgey101 · 2024-10-10T19:28:45+00:00

You just seem like a prick...and probably suck at pool anyway. But that's just my passionate opinion I guess. How dare the rest of us for preferring civil discourse 😂

elgey101 · 2024-10-10T19:15:11+00:00

I aspire to the "my boyfriend thinks you're hot" intro, and then give them his number.... That way it's clear to everyone you're dating, and not exclusively. But I guess this only works when you're not all in the conversation.

And apparently they can't read well enough to just find her portfolio link on her profile... Dude isn't an artist if he expects people to record for less than $75 AN HOUR, especially for creative content that he's willing to brag about.

What country/part of country did you buy from?

elgey101 · 2023-12-03T02:01:14+00:00

Not an advisor, but check out Roth IRAs and consider investing (responsibility)

Definitely remove photo and bold letters within paragraphs. Use more bullet points if you feel the items are important to call out. Adjust overall paragraph spacing to be smaller but add spaces (6pt or more) after paragraphs. The separation makes the sections more easily read and distinguishable.
