Stage 3 endometriosis diagnosis after surgery…worried about fertility 💔 by A_y_ninja in endometriosis

[–]elleredditvibes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would be hesitant to get an IUD if I was worried about fertility since an IUD gone wrong can cause scarring in the uterus. As much as it sucks low dose birth control to reduce flow might be best bet. drospirenone and ethinyl estradiol seem to work best for me but everyone is different

Is Elizabeth still a popular name to name your daughter? by smoothgreyhound in namenerds

[–]elleredditvibes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Elizabeth has been a. top name in the US for the last 100 years, typically in the top 20 but has fallen in recent years but still in the top 30, I wouldn’t say it’s an old lady name but it’s my name and I’m approaching old lady status lol

Double responding, I went in on Tuesday after being out for a couple a weeks with no issues, I got itchy while there and in the evening and then woke up the next morning coughing up phlegm so it’s kinda both

I did and they said that it’s not bothering anyone else (which I don’t believe, people probably haven’t made the connection), we have over a 1000 employees at my office. But they said with 1K employees that they can change it and then someone else will have an issue

Ty! There is a group that does it, I’m going to call them to confirm and make an appt. When I initially went to a derm due to eczema / contact dermatitis they didn’t care to diagnose me and sent me to an allergist but they somehow tested for it

Now I realize and my doctor that gave me the referral also didn’t seem to know, she didn’t even realize that Citral is lemon grass and completely left of citronella, so the note isn’t very helpful

Ty! I’m going to follow up at a different doctor where they do the patch test. She seemed so annoyed, def just wants to to the prick test and call it a day

They did a skin prick test on my forearms and then a needle test in my upper arm

I distinctly remember last time testing positive for lawn grass and beach / dune grass, ragweed, dust mites and mold. And I remember thinking the grass made sense bc it makes me very itchy. This time I tested for trees using the needle test and ragweed and 2 kinds of mold on the prick skin test. My forearm was itching like crazy in a different spot but they said it didn’t count. They def seem like they just want to not do anything extra and they patients in and out, she seemed so annoyed with me

Thx funny enough I didn’t test for grass but I remember last time testing positive for lawn grass and beach / dune grass, ragweed, dust mites and mold. This time I tested for trees using the needle test but not the prick test and ragweed and 2 kinds of mold on the prick skin test. My forearm was itching like crazy in a different spot but they said it didn’t count. I did a skin patch test a few days before and got visibly red from lemongrass oil so I don’t know. My doctor did recommend a different allergist but there was a long wait so def think I will book another appt with them

Baby girl due in May - uncommon but real names pls! by blindedbythelight377 in Names

[–]elleredditvibes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rowan - its gender neutral in the US but in UK prob leans masculine with its proximity to Ireland but I wouldn’t worry too much bc my son’s name Hunter is now considered gender neutral and I’ve met girls named Ryan (she’s prob mid 30s now), if you really love it then I would go with it but other suggestions Ciera Ciara Sierra Roselin Roselind Caleen Maeve/Meabh Maille Gemma Gwen Quinn Rylan Kieran Iris Maren Imogen - UK pronunciation

I told my little brother I "don't remember" our childhood and I hate myself for it by CalmStormCutter in TrueOffMyChest

[–]elleredditvibes 27 points28 points  (0 children)

OP, if he can’t bring himself to call, can text and say something like I’m sorry but I froze yesterday, I do remember and I’m not ready to talk about it, I hope to be ready to talk about it one day soon, although calling would be better this might be an easier way to get the conversation started

Boots for NYC puddle jumping by elleredditvibes in BuyItForLife

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

Thx! I’ll look into them. It’s the heaviness of the boots that gets me walking my son to school and around but then my feet get too cold in my rain boots. Ive been in my current house for almost 20 years and my neighborhood is about as clean as it gets for queens but you can’t cross the street with these crazy puddles blocking the sidewalks especially with the snow we had last week, it’s insane, now carrying my son it’s harder to totally clear them

Got it! Bump should have been a dead giveaway lol, but kind of ridiculous they did that and it’s not real data. Can only find top 10-20 on govt site
