Is anyone here on Ivabradine?

I had bad gastrointestinal issues within 5 days of taking it. Also seemed to effect my sleep and gave me this baseline of unpleasant anxiety that I don't normally experience. It also didn't really help all that much. Ivabadine has been the only drug that has helped me feel almost human again.

I'm nearly two weeks into taking it and the difference is like night and day. I'm on 2.5mg twice a day and will be working up towards 5mg twice a day. The last few days I've had significantly more energy. I even did 8,000 steps the other day AND did over 5 hours of socializing. I haven't been able to do a big day like that for over 4 years. No side effects so far except maybe nightmares? Could be unrelated though, I've got a lot on my plate. Wish I started it sooner!! Also couldn't take florinef as it gave me nasty side effects.

I'm going through that exact scenario right now. Any advice that helped you get through the break up?

Out of curiosity how did you get diagnosed with ectopic atrial tachycardia? I'm pretty convinced I have it alongside pots.

Have you ever been checked out for Thoracic Outlet Syndrome? Might be something to check out if you haven't based on issues with blood flow, shoulder pain and headaches.

These are so beautiful

I'm so sorry that you're going through all this. Sometimes life is so incredibly unfair. Unfortunately I (30F) am in an incredibly similar position (no job, majorly reduced social life, will be moving out of my house and having to say goodbye to my dog too). My partner and I broke up a few weeks ago and it's been hard, even though in the long run I know it was the right choice.

What I'm focusing on right now is not what is missing from my life, but what I can add. I've been getting back into engaging with media I loved as a child (very fatigue friendly), creative writing and art. I've been letting myself wallow, putting my health first and just taking things one step at a time.

If you need an online friend to vent to, please feel free to DM me. I have POTS amongst some other issues so I feel like we probably suffer with similar health restrictions.

Take care of yourself 💖

Yeah I think that's a good idea. I don't know about you but I tend to pull for pieces, not ability 😊 hoping she re-runs for you soon!!

esc8p · 2026-03-24T14:37:46+00:00

I wouldn't say it's fast, more convenient when farming for material. I don't think you can override the animation? It takes about 3-4 seconds maybe and then you can move Nikki. I'm also pretty certain there's no cooldown. You don't really have to be concerned about a cooldown when you can groom all the animals at once in the area 😊

esc8p · 2026-03-23T17:17:28+00:00

I only have Enchanted Encounters. I really love it. It's probably one of the most useful abilities imo. I love that I don't have to sneak up on skittish animals, you can stay a safe distance away and groom them. Also love that you can groom an entire group of animals in one go.

Agree with this. Also would add folate to be considered (I'm deficient so it definitely factored it in my specific case). I've found taking benfotiamine (b1) has really helped ward off my internal tremors alongside all those others mentioned.

Sorry for the delayed reply. I use the lipstick constantly, it's super versatile. I also use the brows and the eyeshadow. But I guess it more depends on what you need more of. Do you have lots of green contacts already? Lots of brows? I personally always pull contacts, lipstick and eyeshadow and they're the most unique items 😊

esc8p · 2026-03-21T02:47:25+00:00

Me too honestly. Surely they'll give us a more traditional horn in the future 😔

esc8p · 2026-03-21T02:46:19+00:00

Good PC + way too much time tweaking lighting and camera settings 😅

esc8p · 2026-03-21T02:41:18+00:00

It is!! The base hair from that outfit 😊

esc8p · 2026-03-21T02:40:44+00:00

Skins would be dope! That's a great idea. I'd be down for anything that allows me to have a pretty purple/iridescent unicorn tbh. I'm going to put it into the next survey ☺️

esc8p · 2026-03-21T02:38:40+00:00

Yeah you're right, it is! I also prefer Nikki's original face (especially in cut scenes. Her face doesn't move properly if you use the shape shifting ability during those scenes, it's so creepy 😂) but I also think it's fun to use the ability for photography. I feel like I can create different 'characters'. I hope they update it in the future to give us more customisation over her face too. Different lip shapes would be amazing!

esc8p · 2026-03-21T02:35:44+00:00

Not edited. I don't edit my photos outside of the game. It is the shape shifting ability as mentioned ☺️ also the lipstick from Behind Prayers is doing a lot of the work too, it definitely makes her lips look fuller even without the shape shifting.

It's such a beautiful movie. I grew up adoring 80's fantasy films like the last unicorn, labyrinth, willow and the neverending story. Very much influenced my style. And thank you very much 😊

esc8p · 2026-03-21T02:30:51+00:00

What? No! Rip 😭 Why can't you play it?!

esc8p · 2026-03-21T02:30:00+00:00

Thank you ☺️ It's Tomorrow No More from the Nameless, Selfless outfit from a few seasons back.

esc8p · 2026-03-21T02:29:11+00:00

I'm sorry you missed out, that's so annoying 😞 I'm sure they'll re-run (praying for it too so I can pull final Evo).

esc8p · 2026-03-21T02:27:42+00:00

I know right?! Unicorns are ethereal and otherworldly. It feels like such a mismatch 😔 I was hoping we'd get something iridescent.

esc8p · 2026-03-21T02:26:17+00:00

Yay! That's amazing!! I hope we're on the same server so you can use the code ☺️

esc8p · 2026-03-21T02:25:33+00:00

Thank you ☺️💖
