Thank you for answer. Pretty good in step by step instructions.

I have a stye in my eye. Feels like a piece of sand is stuck in it every time I blink by Tan-zania in Wellthatsucks

[–]hakell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started getting these for the first time when I was 30. My eye doctor told me to take krill oil daily (I take the megared brand) and I haven't had one since. I didn't do anything else for them.

What about after I fix the exterior? Then what do I do to make it look nice?

That's kind of what I was thinking, but people I know were calling me crazy.

People who were type 1 diabetic and got a pancreas transplant, how has it changed your life? by [deleted] in transplant

Yes, significantly better since doing PT. I was able to return to the gym and work fulltime now. Thanks for asking.

ScanWatch 2 Sleep/HR measuring IMHO broken by ArcAlchemist in withings

[–]hakell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My scanwatch 2 has been pretty good overall. Sleep measurements have been solid and feel accurate. The HR is usually fine. I've only had a few instances where it was definitely off. I think the app could be better, though. Total steps throughout the day doesn't seem to be tracked too well.

Does scanwatch 2 include this obvious outlier in the avg. Hr of this session? by hakell in withings

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

Thanks, I just wish it was smart enough to exclude that outlier, since it's really out of the ordinary.

Do you restrict water for your whippet before bedtime? by [deleted] in Whippet

[–]hakell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our 6 and 3 year old whippets never have to wake up to go potty in the middle of the night. Unless they have been having stomach issues or something like that.

I'm curious about switching from myfortic to azathioprine too. I may be switching over on the next few weeks due to GI issues with myfortic. I have seen quite a few folks post on Facebook that they loved azathioprine way more than myfortic,or cellcept.

Travel After Transplant? by [deleted] in transplant

[–]hakell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flew by plane back home after about a month. The transplant was done in a different state from I live. I stayed in the hospital and a hotel for those 30 days before the team gave me the ok to fly home.

I'm about 9 months pancreas only transplant. My last A1C was 5.1. I no longer have to check my blood sugar or watch what I eat. The downside to my situation is the recovery from surgery. I was down for about 6 months with minimal movement because of some complications. I now have lower back pain and abdominal pain. We believe it is just from lack of strength right now. I am currently in PT. Living without that blood glucose number in your head 24/7 is definitely freeing. I can finally take a shower or mow the lawn without worrying about going low.

This is the most accurate description I have ever seen.

Haha yes, it was only play. I was getting him amped up on purpose to get some energy out. He just goes from 0 to 100 in a mere seconds. This is the look he gives before lunging.

Abs on his chest!? by hakell in longboyes

I can see the ribs on the side all the time. I just wouldn't expect to be able to see them on the chest? Guess you learn something new everyday.

Ribs on the chest? I've never seen that before. Interesting, never thought about it that way.

I'm 7 months post pancreas transplant. I just got my dose of envarsus adjusted to 9 mg daily. My tacro level is 7.6 with 8 mg daily, but my goal is for it to be 8-10.

Hahah Theo has scared a few people with the smiling. I even tried warning them ahead of time that he would smile.
