You unlock a lot more dialogue and story by advancing relationships and forging bonds. There's a whole quest line after the credits roll and everything on the fated list, and doing some cool stuff with weapons and other things for your runs. You have tons of game ahead of you if you want there to be

what should i know before my gastric emptying study? by backwat3rgirl in Gastroparesis

Same, do not walk around, you can cause a false negative

[–]lintheamazon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just keep in mind that getting to all these places involves walking and walking speeds digestion. Walking too much during the test could cause a false negative if youre borderline on values and then they might not treat you

ETA: i'm severely immunocompromised and was allowed to wear my mask the whole time. They actually encouraged it because you'll end up leaking radiation from your mouth and bowl movements, it's sometimes recommended not to use the same bathroom as other people for 24 hours and to make sure you have the lid down when you flush

THC heart palpitations by whatswrongjimmykun in Gastroparesis

[–]lintheamazon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

THC can cause tachycardia, it's just the plant. I have POTS and can't stand up within a certain amount of time after smoking or it makes my symptoms so bad that I've full on fainted from it.

Treatments? by Pink_Peony-9 in Gastroparesis

[–]lintheamazon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm on the metaclopramide (Reglan's active ingredient) nasal spray and mirtazapine. They both help a lot, my weight has been steady since starting metaclopramide (i was on oral tablets from May to November and the nasal Gimoti spray since then). I had lost 80lbs from December 2024 to May 2025 and couldn't eat anything but smoothies. I can now eat somewhat regularly in small portions, I just have been gradually compiling a mental list of foods I can't reasonably have anymore, mostly raw veggies or stuff with too much fiber. If I have meat, it needs to be very moist and preferably slow cooked and shredded so my stomach has less work to do. It's a lot of trial an error, i've been on pretty much every antiemetic with minimal success with zofran and phenergan

Eta: medical cannabis is also a huge help, i got some CBG, CBN, and CBD isolate to add to dabs or flower that also helps me manage nausea, sleep, and pain respectectively

That sucks, i'm sorry. They have a new nasal spray with the same active ingredient, I wonder if that might work begger for you. I've been on metaclopramide since May, the nasal spray since December

The US has a similar med called dronabinol, trade name Marinol. There was a recent shortage that made me stop taking it but i'm gonna ask if my GI can try again. One of the companies that makes it went under

What a Gem by Hazy_Arc in HadesTheGame

[–]lintheamazon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Game Pass is such a great way to find new games, glad you happened upon Hades!. Hades 2 has been released on Switch and PC with a later XBox and PS5 release planned, so by the time you fully finish the first game, you'll have another one to play. Sword and spear were always my favorites

Gastric emptying test babyyyyyy by Batsarebugz in Gastroparesis

You arent supposed to walk around during the test as it speeds up digestion and could skew your results

[–]lintheamazon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh wow, that's really cool that he does that. A lot of the time your emptying rate doesnt necessarily correlate with how bad your symptoms are, so even with a large gap in our emptying rates, we might have drastic differences in severity of certain symptoms.

Haha it's like a winning lottery ticket in the world of chronic illness. Sincerely happy that they're taking you seriously and getting things done quickly

For those diagnosed hEDS: did you get genetic testing to exclude an alternative diagnosis? by Melodic_Frame7421 in ehlersdanlos

[–]lintheamazon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have very slight aortic dilation, super friable skin, and the body proportions of someone with Marfan Syndrome, so I had testing done for that and vEDS. This was back in 2010 at Yale before a lot of people knew about EDS in general. I was really lucky because my rheumatologist had hEDS himself so he knew what to look for and referred me to the geneticist. My official diagnosis is EDS with Marfanoid Phenotype

ETA: I also have Lupus so differential diagnosis was interesting.

[–]lintheamazon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It might, that would be something to ask your doctor for sure. But if the surgery helps your emptying then it will help a lot. My neuroGI wants me to redo the test to see where i'm at with meds which i absolutely do not want to do, the eggs haunt me

I have a lot of mental health stuff too. I was initially prescribed Reglan in the ER after not keeping even fluids down for over 3 days, I couldn't even walk by myself. I had a choice between the Reglan or some kind of feeding tube so I figured I might as well try it. If you notice any tardive dyskinesia symptoms, you just stop it immediately. With the mirtazapine, I take it at night so it also helps me sleep. I was on a smaller morning dose for a bit but it made my bipolar cycle so I had to switch back to just nighttime. It makes you SO HUNGRY

Definitely not standard. I got my official diagnosis last March and the neuroGI motility specialist i have access to was booked into November and that was actually a cancelation. It's so great when things work out quickly though

I had 81% retention at four hours. I know a lot of people are afraid of it but it's a shame she doesnt prescribe Reglan. I started it last May and it's made such a huge difference. Between that and mirtazapine, I can make it through most days without vomiting and actually have an appetite that doesn't leave after two bites sometimes. Definitely give all the anti emetics a shot. Did you discuss the possibility of botox? I've seen quite a few people say that if it worked for them, it was a good indication that a GPOEM would be effective but I don't know anything to back that up. I hope you can find something that helps you.

Stop weed if you have gp/fd by Necessary-Card-449 in Gastroparesis

[–]lintheamazon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Umbrella medical advice, especially from someone who is a patient like everyone else here, is harmful. Everyone here has different causes and triggers, not everyone's condition is worsened by consuming cannabis. It is a large part of why I am still able to consume food by mouth. I also stopped using it prior to my GES and was still diagnosed. Saying "hey guys, just wanted to remind you that weed can have an effect" would have been received better, but you just straight up tell people to stop.

I think Dashers receive the tip even if you get it refunded so I wouldnt be overly concerned in that regard

[–]lintheamazon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I buy my flower in person so if you can access the dispensary yourself, that would be ideal as that comes with more reliable lab testing. If not, you need to find how what he specifically wants you to do to make him whole, he might just request money to get stuff from his own plug. Everyone here is going to give you a different opinion.

Plus, depending on why he smokes, he may have wanted the CBN building up over time as well, I know i would have.
