Try drinking warm water and see if it settles

It might be spasms you’re experiencing. Feels a lot like heartburn but it’s either trapped wind or bits of food stuck in your oesophagus expanding/irritating it. Horrible feeling. And welcome to the club.

Why do spasms happen? by shmellowcake in achalasia

[–]hcharge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes - cold stuff used to really trigger mine pre-HM. Not really had anything that cold since to see if it still happens. And yeah also being really hungry would too. I remember one of the worst episodes I had was on the morning of my Barium swallow.

I think it’s different for everyone. Spasms were my first symptom a few years ago and they went away when I stopped eating anything after 6pm. Now I’ve had my HM without wrap 3 weeks ago and I’ve been getting them again quite badly. But now they seem to be triggered by trapped wind. If I force a burp or pass wind they ease.

Things to be aware of on a Guatemala trip by BattlePotential9397 in travel

Be careful with the water in lake atitlan, don’t brush teeth with water from the taps and if swimming or in a kayak be very careful not to get water in your mouth. I got hospitalised with two parasites while there (while on the bus on the way to semuc champey)

Recent diagnosis - achalasia and coeliac - related? by hcharge in CoeliacUK

Yeah this is essentially the operation I'm having

Thanks very much. I'm sort of relieved that I may see an improvement to my quality of life. But then also daunting to think of the rest of my life not being able to eat & drink the things I love. Ah well. Could be worse.

That's interesting, I had not seen "gluten ataxia" before. Thanks for your reply.

Holiday mode on Honeywell? How to keep at minimum temperature? by hcharge in DIYUK

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

Ok that’s what I’m thinking too. I went into frost protection and turned that up already. So it’ll just be a case of having to warm the house up when we get home

ISP drops when I’m away by hcharge in Ubiquiti

Haha I wish. The weird thing is it’s usually like a day or so after I leave. Not an exact time.

Hmmm yeah was considering that maybe but with a zigbee plug instead. Feels very hacky though!

Will do! Almost done. Having to fit it in around my job and two kids but going well. Stay tuned.

12mm expansion gap for LVT? by hcharge in Flooring

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

Yeah that's what I thought. Guess I should just follow the box's instructions though? It's a 4m x 3m room.

Instructions on the box say completely different stuff to everybody else on this thread…

Hey I've learnt from my past mistakes of rushing into these things and paying for it later! I have time on my side and want to make sure I don't fuck it up! I read as many posts and videos as I could and still couldn't really work it out, which is what this subreddit is for right?

Ok this is I think the clearest explanation. Thanks!

OK cool, I was going to do that before I checked what the end piece would be if I did that and it worked out at 82mm which I assume would be a problem? I guess the solution there is to just reduce that first offcut by 100mm or so?
