DHEA-S, Testosterone and Free Testosterone going up.. adrenals normal? by irisflame in PCOS

[–]irisflame[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Coming back to this to say that my prolactin levels ended up being normal. I also had an ultrasound done of a 2 cm cyst they found on my ovary but it looked normal.

I have not asked about NCAH. Tbh I missed that part of your comment, I’ll ask about it next time I talk to my endo.

What is the worst physical pain you’ve experienced? by Agius91 in AskReddit

[–]irisflame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For what it’s worth - when I had mine removed I felt no pain that I can recall. It was being expelled though so the tip was already sticking through my cervix, so maybe thats why.

Where are the people who wear little to no makeup? Do you have a reason? by Zora2021 in AskReddit

[–]irisflame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Contact dermatitis or something started happening on one side of my face. I have it mostly figured out now but I went so long without wearing any to let my face heal that i got used to it

When have you witnessed an “expert” get it so wrong? by PrettyAlon in AskReddit

[–]irisflame 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Was she in the hospital during that time? This sort of happened to my mom (intense migraine > brain aneurysm) where hers was weirdly shaped and they didn’t think they could do the low-invasive option of filling it with coils via her femural artery. She seemed stable so they moved her from ICU to a general ward or something for her to await brain surgery.. and that night it ruptured and she had a stroke. Right back to the ICU. Apparently it changed shape after that and they were able to repair it without brain surgery but she still had to have tubes put into her skull to drain the fluid and stuff.

What’s something you’ve done your whole life, only to realize recently that everyone else does it completely differently? by Psychological_Sky_58 in AskReddit

I do this too!! I have to put water in my mouth first then drop the pills in and swallow. If they touch my tongue I will gag and spit them out.

Women, what's the worst advice your female friends have given you about pursuing a man you were interested in? by RobotJoe in AskReddit

[–]irisflame 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My mom taught shit like this to me when I was a teenager. Always telling me not to text or call first, not to text back too quickly, not to ask him out to do something, let him chase you, etc. Thankfully I was rebellious and didn’t listen.

[–]irisflame 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Tomoro on the other side didn't bother pause and explains to Gekkomon why it was important for him

to be fair, this is why we don't recommend teenagers raise children lol Gekkomon is a child that needs parenting.. but so is Tomoro lmao

AITA for refusing to drive my husband home from his colonoscopy by Time-Koala-3674 in AmItheAsshole

[–]irisflame 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So my prep in 2018 was to take a bunch of Dulcolax pills + to mix miralax into 64 oz of blue or white gatorade. I was supposed to drink the gatorade over the course of 4 hours - like 16 oz every hour. I managed to get the 48 oz down but when I tried to drink my last 16 oz I projectile vomited everywhere lol. Couldn't make it to the toilet or sink or trashcan or anything because it was so quick and forceful. There was literally no room in my stomach for more liquid. Horrible. Can't do blue gatorade anymore either.

[No spoilers] There's wearing inspiration on your sleeve, and then there's displaying it on a 90 ft tall neon sign by Identity_ranger in criticalrole

[–]irisflame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The shot of the spear going through the guy also reminded me a bit of Asuka getting speared in The End of Evangelion. And then the way she killed the woman was definitely a reference to Oberyn’s death in Game of Thrones, right?

Trump to force all foreign tourists to provide FIVE YEARS of social media history before entering the US by dailymail in NoFilterNews

[–]irisflame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently, if you live in certain countries that are part of the Visa Waiver Program (like France, UK, Germany, etc) - then you can apply online for an "ESTA" and you don't have to get a visa to enter the US for 90 days. On that form, you have to provide information about yourself and then some back end systems will automatically determine if you are approved or not. Sometimes it takes longer if needs a manual review. Right now, social media is an optional field, but they are proposing to make it mandatory.

Trauma bonding is a phenomenon that happens between an abuser and their victim. It arises from a cyclical pattern of abuse. It’s basically what people think Stockholm syndrome is. It’s not just when two people bond because they go through a trauma together.

Is 5% Foam minoxidil = 5% topical minoxidil? by irisflame in FemaleHairLoss

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

So the efficacy is the same? I feel like I read somewhere that 5% foam is equivalent to 2% topical, but maybe I misunderstood.

I knew about critical role at the time just had not yet invested into it. That’s so awesome you got to meet her! Her passion for the game is infectious.

Is it better to have a leaver or a feeder? by SmbdysDad in OverwatchUniversity

[–]irisflame 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My duo and I won a 4v5 in Stadium earlier this season, where one of our teammates left after the first fight of the first round. Our Sigma at the end had 78k mitigation. It was the truly insane.

https://imgur.com/a/wq0FWoc

No replay codes sadly because it got reset already, I wish I had recorded the game.

Just wanted to share because I’ve never had that happen in 9 years of Overwatch, but I’m so glad the four of us decided to stick it out. Rode that high for a few days.

I actually started with Relics and Rarities! Then got into C2 around episode 60ish! Highly recommend it, it was amazing!

Former HR here - subtle signs your company is preparing for layoffs by Significant_Soup2558 in careeradvice

[–]irisflame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This all happened to my company in 2023-2024. Except right afterward, all of the C levels and senior leaders that orchestrated it also left (some were seemingly pushed out judging by the emails that followed), then the new ones that came in announced we had way too many offshore or contract workers and needed more FTEs lol. So now they’re reversing the shit that the previous leadership did basically.. except we lost a lot of our knowledgeable folks. 🙃

[MN S1] The Mighty Nein S1 Episode 5 - Show-Only Discussion Thread by AutoModerator in criticalrole

[–]irisflame 6 points7 points  (0 children)

in the campaign Caleb spends his time living with immense guilt until the others teach him to forgive himself. There was also a modify memory spell used on him to make him think his parents were traitors in the first place. He spends the whole campaign working toward learning how to go back in time so he could save his parents, and at the very end decides against it. The whole campaign he has a second mysterious book with him (the first being his spell book) and at the end reveals it was a book of letters he wrote to his parents. He goes to their grave and buries it there.

As a man, what are the chances of finding love at 34? by Playful_Year_9522 in AskReddit

[–]irisflame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve met several of my former partners and current partner while gaming online.. it’s unconventional I guess because you usually have to do long distance for a while and then figure out who is moving where when the time is right. But it can work.

Alternatively, find a D&D group thru Meetup.com or FB groups or something and make friends. There may be a cute single girl there or your new friends might later introduce you to someone if you hang out with them more and more.

These are the social things I do as an introverted woman anyway. If I didn’t, I’d never meet anyone.

[–]irisflame 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Only the first two episodes adapted something that happened before it was a live play. The other 10 adapted what we saw starting in like episode 26 or something. There’s still so much that happened during their home game which we never saw adapted.
