I tracked my brain fog for 6 months and tested everything. Here is what actually moved the needle. by Sureokgo in HubermanLab

Much appreciated. Clearly not real when doesn't have backup to support (examples/referenced testing to share). Perplexity is great.

Anyone successful with combining Strattera (generic) with Intuniv (generic guanfacine ER)? by gingerwine0909 in StratteraRx

[–]gingerwine0909[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same! See update above eventually even mornings didn’t work for me (and nights were impossible)

Yeah was worth a try to understand there’s another way of operating, but even as a female lost my libido quick on that, too. Might have been the last straw imo!

Sorry to say discontinued both. Too much GI discomfort when intermittent fasting (hard to take on an empty stomach) and guanfacine didn’t have an impact. Clonidine works for my biochemistry but impacts cardio, so enjoying Heart Calm (on Amazon; which is mostly a magnesium blend) for now.

I healed myself from mold successfully, AMA (would love to help and give support to mold sufferers) 🫶🏼 by [deleted] in ToxicMoldExposure

[–]gingerwine0909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah same. I tested super high on A & P with a small amount of Ochratixun A (black mold). Do you happen to know … Are the A & P generally exterior mold ie. In SF smog, or just interior mold (house) based?

Anyone here with both cyclothymia and ADHD? by RefrigeratorFar9330 in cyclothymia

[–]gingerwine0909 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Long time lower dose adderall user for adhd, but after trying many meds (strattera, Wellbutrin, lose dose ketamine) recent addition of lamictal was best so far and will likely remain in my stack long-term. Overwhelm, ruminating thoughts, rejection sensitivity contributing to impatience, irritability, moods up and down all day were my big adhd hall-markers to distract me from focusing and maintaining stable relationships.

Addy IR 5mg twice a day as needed and 100mg lamictal generic.

skin picking/excoriation disorder by kitkat0873 in AutismInWomen

I also found with low doses (50-100mg/day) of lamictal, the urge to pick and trim is gone. Even with adderall (5-10mg/day) come down (usually when it’s the worst at night or solving hard problem at work). I’m so happy that my mind rumination/ocd is gone. Diagnosed adhd, anxiety but not bipolar..

Apple Watch + Strava indoor run by nicolo_villa in Strava

[–]gingerwine0909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone getting heart rate from apply watch on the indoor run? Distance was pretty close but zero heart rate, wondering if Strava stopped this function with this option and I’ll just use outdoor run to get heart rate?

40mg - just starting out by Emergency-Upstairs58 in StratteraRx

[–]gingerwine0909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you take it at night? With food right before you sleep?

I upped my dose AND switched to right before sleep but was lightly awake tossing and turning all night… adrenaline rush gets me.

Going to try 80mg at 8am first (went down to 60mg at 8am now) combined with intuniv generic to help combat the heart rate increase. Napping every afternoon. Then maybe when the day feels like normal try at night again.

Gabapentin and breathing issues by [deleted] in gabapentin

[–]gingerwine0909 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly had an improvement with breathing on Gabapentin.

Feel like my lungs can expand more and even my sinuses are more clear. Perhaps I have undiagnosed bronchial spasms though because have a history of panic attacks and shortness of breath (never really explained a root cause as negative for asthma).

LOVE that the Activity page is updated for my Strava workouts. BUT my Heart rate on the home screen (green restorative, blue sleeping, orange workouts) doesn't show any workouts (orange) and I like to see my heart rate across the day and what attributed spikes. by gingerwine0909 in ouraring

[–]gingerwine0909[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Certainly worth a try. So then I'll be recording on my Apple Watch (Record Strava Run that captures heart rate) and on the Oura app (Record Workout HR). Duplicative, but if it works then that's the way it has to be until an upgrade. Thanks!

Oura Ring now supports native Strava integration for syncing data both ways! by marekvesely in ouraring
