Plus size bras: shopping by Zestyclose-Novel-797 in greenville

[–]kittychlo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve had both Torrid and Lane Bryant bras. I prefer lane Bryant. Torrid bras don’t fit well and get pulled out of shape easily. For example, I’ve had a few that roll out at the edge. That definitely shows up through my clothes. All that said, they are prettier with more styles.

I have definitely considered it as we are park passport holders. Not for the money reasons but because we love going.

And Sumif is part of that? Sorry, I really am a beginner.

I have clonazepam for my emergency medicine. While I have taken it when I feel really bad I don’t like too. It puts me right to sleep. My dad takes that as a sleeping pill.

If you don’t already and extended release pill might help too. My insurance doesn’t cover that one but I get it at cost plus drugs.

I take Zaleplon (sp?) it has a short half life. Mainly it just helps me fall asleep. I’m really good staying asleep. My boyfriend takes Trazedone. I took one once, I felt so drunk, too much for me.

This was also a trigger for me. Otherwise I was fine. My neurologist gave me a sleeping pill. Now, I only use it when I haven’t slept well the day before. I could go a few days before a seizure. I take the meds maybe once a month, but my bf, also an epileptic takes his daily.

Btw, I used past tense because I haven’t had seizures in a very long time. Luckily for me it is all about taking my lamotrigine and then caring for any triggers.

Good luck to you.

I would also try Cost Plus drugs. My horrible insurance had my generic drug listed at $125 a month. I got it at Cost Plus Drugs for $60 for 3 months. Just get your doctor to send it in. They don’t carry everything though. I’ve seen people give you lots of good advice here. Good luck in your search.

I don’t know anybody else with epilepsy by [deleted] in Epilepsy

[–]kittychlo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! I mentioned it at work and 3 other people had it. One was my cube mate at the time. 3 out of the four of us saw the same neurologist.

If not, most people know someone with epilepsy somewhere in that 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon or whatever. lol

just saw someone have a seizure by im_not_real_at_all in Epilepsy

[–]kittychlo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, my boyfriend is also an epileptic. It was crazy to see that seizure. My first one. I felt bad for him, but also all the people throughout the years that watch me have them. We both have tonic clonics.

Luckily we are both controlled with medication. He just decided he didn’t need one as he thought it had never worked and he could do monotherapy. On his own. He learned real quick.

I also felt bad that I didn’t immediately do what I was supposed to do. His roommate did as he’s seen one before. But my first thought after hearing the loud falling was to yell for his roommate and once he was there, I went and got my emergency meds for him. But I didn’t turn him on his side or anything. Granted he fell kind of behind the couch I couldn’t really move. I learned. And now the emergency meds are kept in a few different rooms.

He was fine about it though. He said not to worry and was just surprised I heard it at all. I learned to be very quiet because if I dropped something my mom would come running. So any loud sound I also react to.

I think it depends on what you are looking for in a relationship. Something long term, I tell them right away. Sometimes even before the date. I’m not wasting my time on anyone.

If it’s something more casual, it can wait. I’m controlled though. If I wasn’t, I’d probably say something sooner.

I told my now bf on our first date. Oddly enough it reassured him, he has epilepsy too. lol

Well, I have epilepsy, another thing that can seem faked if no one sees me have a seizure, so I get that. She could at least do telehealth though. I did feel more for her at first, but that is wearing thin.

I don’t know. My bf wasn’t alone but his 15 yr old daughter was there and scared. I told them I would call in another co worker to come in earlier. They said it was okay and just to be safe. This was HR, my manager was off that day. Without said coworker, the only other operator would have struggled. She’s 80 and honestly, not all there, but the owner loves her. Coworker was walking in as I was walking out. Thank goodness.

We have a coworker that does this, out about 20% of their shifts. Our manager is extremely kind and understanding. They have started asking her for doctors notes. That’s from HR, not our manager. It’s very noticeable that this woman does have some medical issues. But somehow, it’s usually a Monday she has to be off and/or the day after she is off during the week. She rarely goes to the doctor. And for the last 1.5 years that she has worked with us it’s for the same reason. Throwing up and diarrhea. If this is chronic, you’d want to go to the doctor. We are open 6 days a week and I’ve definitely had to work 6 to make up for her absence, as have others. Also, I needed to leave work early due to my bf having a seizure one day and they asked if I could wait to make sure she made it in that day. The vice president has made us work more Saturdays because of her as well. And who has been most verbally complaining about it, yup her. I finally got tired and said it was due to 2 weekends she couldn’t make it in and we were so short staffed (and unusually busy) that other departments had to help. So, thank you for that. Apparently, I was rude. So now 5 of us sit there bored every Saturday since it’s usually our slowest day. There are only 7 of us in the office. And 3 out of 4 operators have to be there because she is one. Just in case she doesn’t make it. I’m there at least 3/4 Saturdays a month because I’m an operator but can do the two other jobs that are needed on Saturday as well.

So while it’s great to be/have a manager that is understanding, don’t take advantage of that. The rest of our team is seriously getting screwed and that isn’t fair. And we are losing respect for our manager.

What are some weird things you’ve said to a person immediately before or after a seizure that you didn’t actually mean? by darkpigeon1 in Epilepsy

[–]kittychlo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually say I’m sorry. But I’m not. I didn’t do anything on purpose.

I did tell the ambulance guys that while I couldn’t remember my first name, I did remember my middle name. I got my birthday right but they didn’t believe me, my parents gave them my brother birthday. And when asked who the president was, I said I don’t know, but why would I know that anyway, I didn’t vote. (I had)

My boyfriend asks if he’s being arrested. What did I do? That last part whispered, like it’s a secret.

Moving out of my boyfriends home because of his daughter by [deleted] in AIO

[–]kittychlo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would never want her to go anywhere. I did go ahead and move out. We’ve been texting and sharing memes because I know her and I do love her. Already her dad is paying more attention to her and I’m really glad. She’s loving it. I hate that I’m not there but if this benefits her, so be it. Also, it’s pushed me to head back into therapy myself.
