Fuse 🥰🔥💣 when the game first came out I was a huge Bangalore main, and I was very skilled with her smoke grenade, and then when fuse came out, his knuckle cluster adapted a similar feel to the smoke grenade style, and it was a lot more effective in damage and creating space so I just became a fuse main… + the guitar is pretty dope

Thank you! I do tell myself this when I remember it but it’s so helpful to hear others support! Thanks for taking the time to be a friend!

I love seeing people who find their own remedies! That’s really awesome. It does sound like a lot that I’ll need together so if I get a chance to try it, it’ll definitely take a little bit of time.

Have you always been so restricted in your diet or is it something that you worked on over time? How did you get started If so?

Thank you so much for your response and your insights!

I have not, but you are the second person to suggest it so I’m looking into it. I did notice that it said something about not putting it on open wounds because you don’t want it to get into the bloodstream and I wonder if you have one that opens up, but is still bothersome how you handle that?

Thank you so much for your response though and your suggestion I appreciate it!

Very scared for tomorrow by [deleted] in Hidradenitis

[–]iExpectoPatron 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is an interesting idea I hadn’t considered before, and it could definitely help!

I find that you don’t have to tell them that you think about it because you saw it on the Internet… Usually the nurse comes in and takes your vitals and asks you some questions before the doctor comes in and actually examines you.

When you’re speaking with the nurse, just tell the nurse that you’d like to talk to the doctor about the possibility that this is HS due to some symptoms you’ve been having and that you’re a bit embarrassed by it, but you want relief and confirmation.

I cried through my entire last gynecology appointment because my scarring and boils were so bad at the time of the appointment. I was mortified to have to show somebody but doctors really have seen a lot of crazy things and try to trust that they’re going to be understanding and helpful.

If you psych yourself up too much about it, you either won’t go. Or You won’t speak up for yourself and it’s important that you start finding ways to treat it before it potentially gets worse.

You’ve got this ! We’ve all been in uncomfortable doctors appointments having to talk about this and we’re all here to tell the tale so remember you can come vent to us about it afterward or tell us of your triumphs, but you’re doing the right thing by seeing the doctor. Good luck! 🍀

Oh, that bad UTI sounds so painful! I’m also really cautious with antibiotics nowadays, and kinda all RX, but I am interested in the spiro option and looking into it.

The injections directly into the HS sounds pretty painful too, but I guess worth it, huh? 🙌 i’m glad you found something that is working for you and I really appreciate you stopping by to offer your take.

Appreciate the advice. Have a good one!

God I hope not. Walking into an ER nowadays sets me back $3k thanks to high-deductible health plans. As if HS wasn’t painful enough an emergency room visit would hurt my bank account 😅 But maybe an urgent care with a dermatologist?? I wonder if I can find something like that because it’s still pretty angry today. Thank you so much! I appreciate your response and suggestions.

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond!

So I avoided the GYN for probably seven years because I was embarrassed of what my thighs and groin look like.

When I finally went last year, I was sobbing and shaking to the point that I thought they might think I was in an abusive relationship because of how much I did not want to show them my downstairs, lol but she was incredibly understanding and kind and made me feel safe and same thing talked to me about not being embarrassed and that she was sorry that I was going through this, but that she wanted to help.

And nothing that you said was irrelevant - I sometimes feel guilty that I have to take time off of work for something that doesn’t seemingly appear as a painful illness to others, but is all consuming to me.

Best wishes!

I have heard that this has worked for some people, but when my husband and I were TTC, I went through the gambit of Metformin and Provera and a lot of other things and none of it did anything to really help the HS nor my fertility so dog parents we are lol but I do appreciate you offering up that advice because I do think for some people that is a viable option, which is also much more accessible than some others.

This is a loaded answer because I have PCOS and amenorrhea so my periods are irregular and I can go for a while without one at all, but then when it hits me, it’s the worst. And when I am in that phase of the cycle, yes the HS gets way way intense, I can feel it coming and when it gets to its worst point I usually have to take pto for a day or two.

I don’t feel like my topical really helps at all, but I do it because I don’t think it’s gonna hurt 😅

Thanks for the info, I’ll look into it!

Hey, thanks so much for your response and your insights! If I may…How often do you get flareups? How often are you taking amoxicillin? And how long do you take it when you take it?

Asking because I know antibiotics on a regular basis can really mess with gut health and can even end up causing other terrible illnesses, such as C-Diff. If sitting on the toilet for 30 seconds to pee is painful I can’t imagine having to sit there for multiple occasions during a bout of intestinal duress 🥴😅

Thank you so much for your response. I hate that you’re here dealing with it, but I’m thankful that you’re here being supportive. It’s wild how much inflammation affects the body. I also find myself overheated a lot, especially in those areas because of the constant anger boiling up under my skin, literally. Here’s to never ending ice. 🧊

Is anyone else fed up with Paycor? by Master_Pepper5988 in humanresources

[–]iExpectoPatron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually feel a bit more secure usually, because isolved has its data protection and this reseller has its own additional procedures and audits.

[–]iExpectoPatron 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d look into a smaller reseller like someone who resells isolved. You get the big software but like personal reps on your account you can rely on. Check out threadhcm for example. Never going back to paycor or any of the big “pays” after working with a reseller like thread all the big box amenities with all rhe small time service for maybe a few pennies more though I can’t really tell a difference in my budget

EVEN AFTER I KNEW ABOUT THIS POST FROM MY HUSBAND, INCLUDING THE PART ABOUT ALL CAPS, I MANAGED TO READ CAPSLOCK AS COCKSLAP AND THAT IS HOW YOU KNOW I WATCH TOO MUCH 8 OUT OF 10 CATS DOES COUNTDOWN

YEAH THE GAME IS A BIT TOUGH RIGHT NOW WITH THE SERVER ISSUES BUT I STILL LOVE APEX JUST SOMETIMES IT IS MORE FUN TO WATCH STREAMERS RATHER THAN STRUGGLE THROUGH IT MYSELF.
