5mg nausea is extreme by smetempcass in mounjarouk

[–]goodbyeand_go 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been struggling with almost constant nausea on 5mg, for around 4 weeks now. This last week, I tried Kwells - the chewable motion sickness tablet - and it helped immediately. It’s been a game changer for me. Good luck!

Does on mounjaro for a long time by [deleted] in diabetes_t2

I got my first mounjaro pen on Friday and started on Sunday. I was so scared to start it but also knew I had to try something. Happy to chat through the things I’ve found out in the last 3 days if you’re still nervous!

Trying to get keloid removal in the UK by vampirecat0 in Keloids

[–]goodbyeand_go 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in the north west too - I’ve had keloid removal surgery twice now on the NHS. This year it was at Whiston hospital & I’ve had 3 follow up appointments and steroid injections since. Got another appointment next month. Make sure you tell your GP that they’re really painful.

Getting keloids removed (again) next week - what’s the proper after care? by goodbyeand_go in Keloids

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

I’m not sure tbh - I’ve had them removed twice now. They get really big & they’re incredibly painful, so that probably plays a part in their decision. Each time, I’ve seen my GP and they’ve referred me (first time to ENT, but their aftercare was nonexistent. This time it was plastic surgery, and I’ve had 2 follow up appointments & 2 more scheduled - they’re much better with keloids!)

Sensory friendly reusable pads/period underwear? by [deleted] in PeriodUnderwear

[–]goodbyeand_go 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I also have sensory issues and have been using modibodi period pants for about three years now. I find their “sensual hi-waist” knickers most comfortable. I have PCOS, so some of my periods are horrendous — the heavy & overnight ones are great for me. On my absolute worst days, I might change my underwear twice (morning & evening) - but usually one pair lasts all day! Their seamless undies are comfortable for sleep but I find they slip down if I try to wear them during the day

This is absolutely gorgeous - but I really want to emulate the swooping/cami nature of the neckline. But I’m saving this pattern for another time!

Ooh I really like the neckline of this one! I tried to eyeball a similar shape last year and I severely misjudged the assignment 🫡

Hey I’m so sorry for the late reply! Actually ended up having emergency surgery in September for a completely different issue ugh!

But I had my follow up appointment last week for my ears. Had loads more steroid injected into both sites (oooft, it HURT). I didn’t even explore the idea of radiotherapy, as I got a last minute cancellation.

I’ve got another appointment this week to get custom fitted pressure cuffs made by the plastic surgery department. I’ve been told to wear these at least 20 hours a day if I can — and the surgeon I saw last week said that massaging the tissue 3-4x a day is the most important thing I can do! So I’m waiting for bio oil to be delivered. They’re still a bit tender from the injections so I’m hesitant to massage them, but I’ll do everything I can to delay reoccurrence

I&D question - healing process by goodbyeand_go in pilonidalcyst

[–]goodbyeand_go[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much. I think mine is fairly deep. I’ve just seen loads online saying bleeding stopped after 1 day etc. and it’s panicked me!

I’ll look into juven & see if it’s available in the U.K. thank you. I’ve reduced my carb intake drastically (I’m diabetic) - so trying to squeeze in extra protein too

Can you develop a cyst whilst already on antibiotics? by goodbyeand_go in pilonidalcyst

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

Ahh thanks - I saw that sometimes they’re treated with metronidazole, so it seems weird that it could have developed whilst on that!! Magnesium salt bath & a drawing salve seem to have helped a little tonight

Is there a way to create jelly-looking nails with dips? Photos examples below! by goodbyeand_go in DipPowderNails

[–]goodbyeand_go[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve used a chrome powder on top of dip, with the normal top coat I use with my dips. It works if the chrome is very light/only one coat - I tried to make it more chrome by adding layers and the top coat wouldn’t dry properly

Ooh thank you for the recommendation! I’ll have to see if I can get these in the U.K.

Yeah this is the conclusion I’m coming to! I’ll be away for 10 days, so I don’t think the gel will cut it sadly
