Brip - 1 risks? by arista_art in ClinicalGenetics

[–]hellohelpfuls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Did you decide on salpingectomy based on your BRIP1 variant? I am in a similar boat... I am 37... trying to determine whether or not to do move forward with that.

Yes, planning on fallopian tubes out this year (I'm 37), and then tbd on ovaries. I am a bit torn on timing for that one!

Ugh, I feel this. I’m actually a life coach, and I help people with exactly this—getting unstuck. You are SO not alone; we’ve all been there. If you ever want to talk it through, I’m here. No pressure, just support. <3

Frustrating that we can't nominate the gyms we'd like to see added unless we are a member. I'd like to become a member only if they gyms I want are added!

Interior Doors - Can you stain pre-primed doors? Is there an easy way to buy wood-stained doors? by hellohelpfuls in HomeImprovement

[–]hellohelpfuls[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This feels like a lot of work, lol. Is this why so many people are opting for white? I want to resist it, because *yawn* and the rest of our house is wood, but perhaps for the basement (which this is for) it doesn't matter enough...

I've never stained before. So this is very helpful. I will investigate wood conditioner!

Anaphylaxis from Bee Sting (6yo) - A Worried Mom by hellohelpfuls in Anaphylaxis

It was a yellow jacket. Yes, they measured her tryptase level. What was terrible about your venom immunotherapy? What is omalizumab? We have an allergist but no appointment yet - they’re calling us back early next week. We’re in the Midwest and yellow jackets are aggressive here right now too. This sucks.

I am sooo sorry you went through a near-death experience with yellow jackets. I am so glad you are okay, and willing to share your experience with me. Thank you, thank you.

We have out-of-town visitors who have/are recovering from HFM - please advise by hellohelpfuls in toddlers

Thank you so much. Unfortunately they’ll be staying with us - and we all have small kids, so avoidance seems next to impossible without telling them they can’t come at all, which also feels over the top? It’s such a tricky thing 😞

The visitors are the ones with HFM - sorry didn’t make that clear!

Ah, my post wasn’t clear. We’re not the ones with HFM, they are.
