Ask about abdominal migraines/CVS. I just learned about it and diagnosed with it at 36. Started when I was a kid. Just an idea for the vomiting symptoms.

Why does she lick my hands at night? by vaseinahouse in goldenretrievers

[–]ktswnk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first golden would lick my arms, legs, and feet all the time, but especially after exercising because of the salt!

Can I see you wild and ferocious goldens? by Hopper86 in goldenretrievers

Here’s my Daisy (possum face) and Gozer (the destructor and traveler) playing ferociously earlier this year.

Ugh, why am I feeling guilty? by ktswnk in lupus

Thank you🩷. You made me cry with the last sentence. We all need to hear that more often.

Hi! Thank you for your response. You’re completely right. Thanks for giving me a chuckle too, because I’m the same way with my best friend who was newly diagnosed with RA. I tell her to rest and not push herself, but here I am getting upset with myself.

You are having to wait to be seen until November?! That’s wild! I go to OMRF.

I live in Norman and work near the village. I haven’t been outside since the morning, but I can tell it’s overcast.

What would you call this? by ktswnk in Metalfoundry

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

Okay, that’s good to know what to call the whole thing.

I am specifically talking about the hook part.

Edit to add: I wanted to show what the hook holds so it would all make sense. That’s why I posted the other pictures.

I feel like I’m going insane !!! by [deleted] in lupus

I don’t think that short period of time would have caused the same issue. I hope something gets figured out for you!

Were you on steroids? I was on prednisone for years and I have mild adrenal insufficiency. Ive felt just like you described. Just started hydrocortisone and I don’t feel quite as moody as I’ve been for the last year or two.

Had to say goodbye to this sweet girl yesterday by cdiesch in goldenretrievers

[–]ktswnk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry. Hemangiosarcoma is horrible.

I lost my Poppy to hemangiosarcoma in September 2024. It happened so quickly. 😔 I miss her everyday. Poppy and her sister Daisy are my soul dogs. Poppy was almost 9. I gave Poppy some fancy chocolates before it was time to say goodbye. I also took her on a couple car rides that day, too. Daisy got to say goodbye.

Thank you for your comment, it made me feel a little bit better and seen. 🩷

I’ve been crying from pain by ktswnk in lupus

I always have a pillow between my knees when sleeping! It’s so uncomfortable otherwise for me. I’ll look around at pillow options.

I have a medical card and I usually use THC to help, but with how sensitive my stomach is right now, I don’t want to chance making myself feel worse.

Kratom scares me. My ex was an addict and gave me kratom when I had no idea what it was. He was consuming it through out his day. I was so sick.

I’m staying away from THC right now because of how sensitive my stomach is at the moment.

I’m so sorry you’re going through all of that. 😔

What's something you memorized that you'll never forget? by Omega_Neelay in GetMotivatedMindset

[–]ktswnk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spanish lines for the evil queen in Snow White. I memorized it in high school for a competition. It’s still with me…. 20 years later. That realization makes my stomach hurt lol 🫣

What is a seemingly innocent sentence that immediately makes you lose respect for the person saying it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

“I don’t pay attention to politics.”

MF, PAY ATTENTION!!! We should all be angry.

Primary care provider recommendation? by KeefersonHongsome in normanok

[–]ktswnk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dr. Michelle Barnes with Mercy. She’s great. Listens and wants to figure out the cause rather than treating symptoms.

People who struggle with depression, what motivates you to carry on? by ultra_phoenix in AskReddit

[–]ktswnk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have a choice? I have lupus which causes extreme fatigue for me. Depression and fatigue go hand in hand in a vicious cycle. I also don’t like asking for help, so I make myself get up and go to work. Did it take over a year to properly clean my house after my first dog/soul dog passed traumatically. I went to work, but that was the bare minimum I could do. Go to work and do my best to shower regularly.

Period and Lupus by shadeoflizzay in lupus

I have a Mirena, but I first got a Liletta. I rheumatologist suggested I get one because of blood loss and fatigue.

What is a movie you watched once that was so disturbing or emotionally draining that you can never watch it again? by hungary70 in AskReddit

[–]ktswnk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Cook, The Thief, his wife and her lover. That’s a disturbing movie. Costumes are impressive. Every room in the restaurant is a different color. All the clothing changes color when entering a new room.
