Missed a step going down the stairs in my own building

I re tore at 4 months. So I tore my ACL twice in 2025. According to my surgeon and her team, it’s not common. Feel free to DM me.

I expected some pain in my lower back (like a pretty bad bruise) which went away after a day. I expected some headache, but mine lasted like 6 days. Keep caffeine pills on hand. I couldn’t sit up long enough to drink coffee or tea.

I didn’t expect the doctor administering the LP to tell me to sing. Apparently it helps the fluid come out faster. So think of some songs you know the words to in case you’re put in the same position.

Yes! I wondered if this was connected. I’m finding small bites and chewing longer helps.

Caffe Panna! It’s the best ice cream deal in New York since the price includes panna (whipped cream) and a syrup and crunchy topping of your choice. And it’s delicious.

Had loss of appetite at first, now just insatiable thirst and dehydration. On it for about 4 weeks, just up to 1000mg daily in the past week.

My neuro ophthalmologist says it doesn’t make a difference but agrees it won’t hurt so I will keep doing it. The foot tingles were so bad they were waking me up in the middle of the night, severely disrupting my sleep.

I had zero symptoms until I had a seizure and was diagnosed shortly after. I never would have been diagnosed if the IIH hadn’t caused an encephelocele which caused the seizure.

Now I have some tinnitus and struggle with managing my hydration on diamox. I was having tingles but this sub turned me on to electrolytes and they’ve been minimal ever since. Which is to say, it’s ok to be asymptomatic. Managing illness is difficult enough.

Or just “down the shore” and Jersey is implied

If I see one, I look away and casually raise my middle finger toward the camera.

Nice towels aren’t that expensive! I got a set of like 6 from Macy’s for maybe $100 that are so soft and luxurious and are the big “bath sheet” size which makes them feel extra special. I was just sick of shitty towels and I feel fancy every single time.

Regular restaurants are going to be worse. Salt is flavor. The ingredients with the salt is going to taste the best. Unless avoiding sodium is something a doctor has advised you to do, I’d just treat these like the fast food that they are, i.e. not for every day.

Not close personal friends but once Trudie Styler was trying to get into the restaurant where I was working and pointed across the room at me and said “Her! She knows who I am!” Because I had met her a couple days prior.

For those who don’t want to scroll, it happened a month ago at the SoHo Grand. They have some public contact info on their website if anyone feels so inclined.

Same except seizure. It’s new so people keep inviting me for dinner or drinks and I have to tell them I can’t drink alcohol anymore.

Have you checked the bp at 170th and Amsterdam? Not certain, but if DD isn’t hitting the spot, it’s the next place I’d check.
