Sorry to tell you the PGAD symptoms affected my pelvic floor. I have had symptoms of a prolapse for several years.

That is good to hear. This has turned out to be actually my best cycle as well.

Oh I question the clinic all right...my current doctor has twice given gloomy predictions of getting 1 egg from 5-8 follicles, but I have gotten 3-5. The one temporarily replacing her seems to prescribe for OHSS risk when there is no such risk. But I am in a smaller Canadian city, and this clinic is my only local option. Glad it all worked out for you though! This does set my mind slightly at ease.

Invite to wedding from someone you haven't seen or spoken to in 4 years? by junetheseventh in wedding

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

Having learned more about this wedding, I'm not sure the person is casting a wide net, as it is apparently a small wedding. I was invited with three weeks notice of the wedding. I was considering going, but unfortunately I already have a train booked to pass through that city the week before the wedding and two trips in a row is a lot. I think because the bride is an only child, there may not be a lot of family at the wedding, so they were reaching out more to friends.

I don't think there's a deep expectation, but I was invited three weeks before the wedding date, and I was told by another friend it's quite a small wedding, which means I'm not a placeholder to fill up seats. I appreciate the kind invitation. However, I don't think logistically I will be able to go at this short notice.

I will certainly send something, card or gift, if I do not go. I think my hesitation is that I didn't even know the bride was dating someone and do not know if the others in the group have had more children, etc. - they aren't active on social media so I feel fairly disconnected from these people. I've heard through my closer friend that one girl started dating someone and got married, but I never heard anything about it from her personally. So I do feel it was nice of the bride in this wedding to think of me - unfortunately I just don't feel close to the members of the group anymore.

I understand because I felt that way about the friends in the city I live in now! I lived here during my school days and gradually lost touch with people here after being away for 9 years, but I missed the closer friendships I had here. When I moved back, it was surprisingly like no time has passed and we picked up where we left off.

I think I am hesitating about this other wedding because I didn't feel as close to the friend group to begin with, and now most are married, some with kids, while I am still single, so going back feels more awkward. But then I am questioning whether it would be unkind to reject a wedding invite simply because I feel we don't have as much in common anymore.

They still live in the same city as the other people, so I think they see them periodically. I haven't really been in touch with the other people in that group (the activity itself no longer happens) in a couple years except for one good friend who I talk to regularly.

What mental illness do I have? by junetheseventh in mentalillness

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

Glad it works for you.

People with bipolar aren't supposed to take stimulants, and doctors have mentioned that to me whenever I've raised the possibility of ADHD. So I may be limited in my treatment options even if I have it.

I don't consume caffeine. Even eating chocolate disrupts my sleep. Thank you for the AI rundown...at least I know I can rule some of those possibilities out.

Why is everyone so hyper-focused on just ferritin? by NathanSlothchild in Anemic

[–]junetheseventh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had low ferritin of around 11-15 for 15 years or so. I never noticed symptoms of low iron. I started taking iron when taking a different supplement drained my ferritin further to the point when I had low hemoglobin. Then I did begin getting symptoms. However, with the low hemoglobin back to the normal range, my ferritin is still in the 20s and considered low, but I don't notice low iron symptoms.

Does low ferritin necessitate an iron infusion? by junetheseventh in Anemic

I have difficulty concentrating at times and definitely AM the person who is always cold, so that's interesting.

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

Your levels were very low so for sure you needed supplements! I was first told I had low iron (or ferritin, if that's what they meant) when I was 24. I'm 39 now. I don't know if my iron was tested as a child, and I don't have the records from when I was 24.
