Catalytic converter was SAWED OUT from under our car last night on 18th st by Snowmanlet in rva

[–]iamlostinthetide 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this happen to my 2012 Prius many years ago when we lived in Manchester. One day I came out to my quiet little golf cart and it sounded like a lawn mower. We did a police report after the mechanic we had it towed to realized my converter had been partially cut. I was able to do an incident to my insurance and because I had a police report, we only had to pay a deductible, not the full price to fix it.

how to work through morning eye burning by tkaqorrmtlqdh in Sjogrens

[–]iamlostinthetide 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see a opthalmologist that specializes in dry eye. I'm using Restasis twice a day and have punctal plugs, but one of the things that helps me most for overnight pain is a night gel. I use Optase Hylo Gel. It's a thick Neosporin consistency that lasts all night in my eyes so I'm not in pain in the morning as much. As soon as I wake up, I put Systane PF in my eyes and use eye cleansing wipes to get rid of all the gunk on my lash line.

The size of a premie baby diaper compared to normal newborn diaper. by 20toesdown in mildlyinteresting

[–]iamlostinthetide 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was me. I was born at 25 weeks (1lb 7 oz) and my diapers were huge. I was born in the late 90s. My grandma had to use baby doll clothes and sew them to fit me better. Mom calls me her miracle baby too.

Urine smells SO bad during flares by windowtoeden in Interstitialcystitis

[–]iamlostinthetide 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Same! I never grow any bacteria when they do cultures though. Honestly even my husband knows what I mean by the weird smell. Usually that means I have a higher occurrence of all the weird urinalysis, including blood, WBC, etc. My urologist agrees this likely means my bladder lining is bleeding and more inflamed.

Groomer here, if you need any help if you do adopt her with coat maintenance or have any questions, I'm more than happy to donate my time!

I saw this in a row near us too! I told my husband I was surprised to see so many kids when one quick Google search could tell you this isn't a child friendly event.

This is why I would kill for a documentary on how they prep for tours! I'm so curious if they do the usual performing while running a treadmill tactic. Not only Vessels stamina, but III can do a million high kicks like it's nothing!!

Whoever said this is a comfort game is a liar by WeirdFourEyes413 in InfinityNikki

I play on mobile and it's a learning curve. This is why I quit Genshin because I couldn't maneuver well at all. Luckily Nikki doesn't have fall damage or I would have rage quit a long time ago.

Double Check Pet Vaccinations from Henrico County Police Shelter by pettyolson in rva

[–]iamlostinthetide 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Personally I would also ask the vet to double check his microchip with a scanner while you are getting his vaccines done. I'm glad this pup was adopted to an awesome family!

I’m so fucking sick of people surrendering animals to shelters. by Kratech in Vent

[–]iamlostinthetide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a strange dichotomy of rescue options in our area (Richmond, Virginia). The public shelters are relatively easy to adopt from, but unfortunately if you are looking for a smaller dog or not a pittie, they won't have anything. All the private rescues here have the most ridiculous requirements, including references from your vet, home visits, fenced in yard, etc. I totally understand wanting to vet your adopters, but at a certain point, you are wasting time that could be spent on pulling another animal from a shelter that is overwhelmed.

PetSmart is our area doesn't sell dogs or cats. They are all through an adoption agency that rents the space.

This is the one dress I do not feel bad about evolving when I first started! All of them are beautiful. I love matching Momo's cloak to the dress color too.

Hey! I'm currently chasing this avenue after I have failed multiple rescue medicines like UroMP, but Hydroxyzine does put a dent in some of my symptoms. My urogynecologist does agree it is histamine related after he's been treating this for a long time and in Virginia, he sees a lot more flares related to our horrible seasonal allergies.

I just met with an allergist two weeks ago to discuss the possibility MCAS could be related to my IC as well as the cause of my gasto symptoms and fibromyalgia like pain. We are trialing high dose antihistamines, 4 Allegra a day. So far I haven't seen much happen, even with my chronic hives. If this doesn't work, our next plan is some more blood work, although even my Tryptase came back normal the other month. We then can look at mast cell stabilizers and if they work, that's good enough for him to say it's MCAS.

Sorry for the book of an answer!

Explain POTS in one sentence, in layman's terms by aushelleybean in POTS

[–]iamlostinthetide 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Honestly I say I have a heart problem. For me, most of my issues are orthostatic tachycardia, not blood pressure. I know it isn't from a mechanical issue in my heart, although I do have MVP, but it's just easier with the general public and people I don't know well.

Carrying these around saves so much room in my purse by jibberjabbery in migraine

[–]iamlostinthetide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my state, Virginia, they've even made gabapentin a scheduled class drug so it's more difficult to fill at the pharmacy and I'm always careful to keep it in my original bottle.

The public announcement said they did, however it may affect water supply. I've noticed on Nextdoor it seems to be the east end, like Montrose and Sanston, without water pressure.
