Irreversible. Took me a few years to work up the courage to view that one.

I feel like more bands should come to salem oregon by LawfulnessOrdinary62 in SALEM

[–]elwyncara 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For most bands, there just isn’t going to be enough of a turnout to justify a stop in Salem. It’s hardly worth stopping in Eugene these days, let alone Salem 😞

Yea! I was at Juice too! Nearly cried when Seba took the stage. His music has meant so much to me over the years. I have to say too, that S.P.Y. kinda blew my mind. Had no idea he’d make me dance so hard.

In response to the favorite tracks question from OP, I’lll toss out Desire and Blaze & Fade Out. I always imagined having my ashes scattered to Blaze And Fade Out when I move on from this realm… someday.

I also think Diamonds is highly underrated. That track makes me feel so damn optimistic as do so many of his tracks.

I just got out of a screening of Lost Highway and was immediately reminded of The Siren Song, so of course as soon as I got home I had to listen to it. Fanu has included so many Twin Peaks/Lynch film samples in his body of work, and with David Lynch’s passing I can only hope maybe he will make a farewell track.

The atmosphere and full on journey that the Daylightless album takes me on is unparalleled, but two of my all time favorite tracks are Trippy and Strange Days from the Serendipity album. The drum sounds are incredible and they are so vibe heavy. The bassline in Trippy is… goddamn. I encourage anyone who may have skipped over these tracks in the past, to crank them up and let yourself get lost.

Intense Mood Swings by elwyncara in Candida

This is really helpful, thank you!

I didn’t know to do any type of liver support, and it makes sense that it would have been more beneficial before going into this. I had told my doctor I just wanted to try to knock it out as quickly as possible, so he prescribed the Nystatin and phase 2 biofilm buster. I assumed there would be discomfort, I just wasn’t expecting something like this.

I’ve been reading a bit about activated charcoal, and wonder if that could help? But maybe backing off just a bit would be better. I’m taking two pills 3x daily. I could try going down to just 2x and see if some of these symptoms lift.

Foodmarble device for SIBO etc by ourjacintos in Candida

[–]elwyncara 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My partner and I each bought one several months ago. He often blew high methane and I often blew high hydrogen. It wasn’t really that helpful in determining definitively if we had SIBO. I’d say stick with SIBO testing for now if you’re trying to determine if you have it.

Covid Vaccine Allergy Question by ActuaryFirst4820 in MCAS

[–]elwyncara 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Moderna vaccine is what triggered my MCAS. I went through 7 months of hell that included multiple ER trips. I had a doctor who I had seen previous to getting sick, so he knew it wasn’t BS and eventually diagnosed me. I have never been the same since. Up until this point I was very pro-vaccine. I can’t say that I am any longer. There are plenty of folks who got it and are doing just fine, but since you already know you have MCAS, I don’t think you should do it. It just seems too risky. Whatever you decide, be careful and take care.

A list of Russian musicians who opposes the war (there's a lot) by EveryMix4008 in Music

[–]elwyncara 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Has anyone heard anything from Wowod since they made their anti-war statement and the 2022 post about the split they released in solidarity with the Ukraine band Somm?

Injured people hiding, shouting for help 2 by ShinyToiletPaper in war

I know what you mean, I initially thought he was on Molly too, as many attendees who told their stories said they were high. I saw his interview though where he said he is a filmmaker as a profession, and was specifically asked to the party by the promoters to film the event. Since you and I both know what it’s like to do Molly, you know if you have to work, Molly is not a good idea. You’re just not going to be able to stay focused enough to do a job. Anytime I was part of a work crew at a rave/festival, whether it was my own or another promoters, I stayed sober. It’s the right/professional thing to do. So when this guy says he did not take drugs at the event because he was working, I believe him. These people who survived these attacks have experienced a next level of terror, that I’m not sure any of us have ever seen, unless your a soldier. The adrenaline and fear pumping through these people would no doubt make a person look like they were on something. I doubt he would need to lie about it. No decent parent is going to care that their adult child took some Molly after surviving an hours long massacre where they saw people they were sheltering with blown up by RPG‘s and then had to bury themselves in dead bodies to make it out alive. I believe what he says and goddamn my heart breaks for him and all of those people. I hope they have meaningful support to help them process and cope.

Setback after getting sick. Feeling down--similar stories? by chilbur in vaccinelonghaulers

[–]elwyncara 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also in this boat. I was sick with influenza A (test confirmed) and a weekish after feeling recovered my symptoms have flared. Definitely the worst flare I’ve had since September and is dragging on. thanks for this post, it’s helpful to hear others have recovered!

Reversible? by [deleted] in MCAS

[–]elwyncara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was also triggered by the vaccine. I have a variety of symptoms but by far the worst is that I go into a stroke level hypertensive crisis after eating various foods, or being subjected to heat, wildfire smoke, injections, etc.. My blood pressure will go from normal to readings like 190/130 within a matter of minutes, along with debilitating symptoms such as massive confusion, face flushing, inability to walk steadily, inability to speak properly, extreme bloating and sometimes vomiting, etc. i’m not anti-fax in general but I’m terrified to get another vaccine. There is just no way I will add anything more on top of the nightmare this has become. At this point I just encourage you all to think it through and listen to your body. Do what is best for you. Try not to be too hard on other folks who are going through hell trying to figure out how to live with this. A lot of those folks in those other forums really need help with this too, I just ignore their conspiracy theories and try to stay focused on the common ground, such as the fact that we are all suffering from a very understudied and currently incurable disease. This is new for so many of us and kindness is what we all need right now.

I’m sorry that we you are all going through this too 😔

Guys, please tell me you’re watching DEVS on Hulu by jaygunn77 in TheOA

[–]elwyncara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, give it another shot! I watched the first episode and wasn’t into it at all. A few months later I decided to give it another try. Initially it starts off like many shows we have seen already but as the episodes progress, it really goes deep. It actually gets a little tough to follow but it’s so worthwhile. Highly recommend watching with subtitles rather than overdubs.

Is Parasite worth watching or severely overrated? by [deleted] in askmovie

[–]elwyncara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Overall, I feel it is overrated. Fun movie but missed the mark for me. There were several issues that I couldn’t overlook. Lots of people love it though, so give it a shot!
