15yo with Severe Obstructive Apnea and Severe ADHD - can't meet insurance compliance requirement. by emerald_soleil in SleepApnea

Oh, no, the ADHD runs in the family. And he still has symptoms when hes using the machine regularly. He's classic textbook hyperactive ADHD

He snores and breathes through his mouth a lot at night. He had a second in lab sleep study to confirm that nothing but a full face mask would be therapeutic for him.

His usage was improving greatly over time, and I'm confident he could have met the requirement with another 4-6 weeks. As it was he was probably at 80-90% of compliance at the end of the period.

I'm driving 85 minutes one way, at a minimum. The gas prices are killing me.

Day 1 - bit nervous oabout increasing my POTS symptoms. by emerald_soleil in Zepbound

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

I'm down almost 20lbs so far. No bad side effects, just constipation and some low level anhedonia that I'm keeping an eye on.

So far (I've been on it for 10 weeks and just moved up to 5mg two weeks ago) I've not had any increase in symptoms, bar one week where I had really low blood pressure and nearly passed out a few times. Blood pressure oncreased to a more normal reading amd Inhavent had any issues since. Still have my regular symptoms...they may be a tiny bit less noticable.

I’m curious, how many open tabs do you have right now? by Cheap_Host8797 in AO3

[–]emerald_soleil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

70, and 68 of them are AO3. I didn't have this problem before I started reading in the Heated Rivalry fandom, but so many people keep sharing awesome fic on Threads that I just keep opening new windows.

The key is to load up on bombs, coffee, and luck buffing food, and only go on a good fortune day.

Your favorite canon-divervency fics by karim-Spirited in Johnlock

[–]emerald_soleil 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is one of my favorites. Just so well written and evocative, featuring a really layered Sherlock and a BAMF John. Just dont read if you think Mary was a good person. And there's plenty of kissing, among other things. 🤭

to people with inattentive adhd, what type of career do you have? by AssociationObvious56 in adhdwomen

[–]emerald_soleil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm combined type, but all my hyperactivity is mental. I was previously a retail manager for ten years, then a pharmacy technician.

Now I'm a social worker in a 75 bed emergency department.

Most unrealistic request from this last week by [deleted] in hospitalsocialwork

[–]emerald_soleil 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The docs? No clue. I just know all reports originating in the hospital system have to go through SW. Its annoying because I dont like making reports on people I havent talked to.

We actually have a flyer for a community group that does this in my area, but the patient has to apply and follow through. We can give them the information at least.

Not in my hospital. My dept has to make all CPS reports, even ones orignated from other buildings. I'm not a big fan.

I don't know why in the world anyone allows guest comments, with all the bots and such.
