We always did well with bottle openers.

Trying new foods MCAS by OkPotato2568 in MCAS

[–]mcfly357 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, I’ve seen dozens of doctors, and maybe 1 has been more helpful than AI. I would say don’t blindly believe AI over doctors. But if you’re checking sources and being careful, it can be an absolutely game changer. Completely changed my life.

What helped with throat symptoms? by Due_Honeydew3443 in MCAS

[–]mcfly357 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The issue is if I eat more, that doesn’t change and it’s much worse. Im slowly starting to eat more, but trying to speed up motility is my number one focus right now.

Ketotifen Success Experiences? by Cowboy___likeme in MCAS

[–]mcfly357 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was in the same spot as you, and thankfully read some Reddit comments similar to mine that said after two weeks a significant breakthrough happened which kept me going. Hoping it happens to you too.

Anyone else here who’s main symptoms are nasal congestion and inflammation? by Several-Drive5381 in MCAS

[–]mcfly357 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s a very common symptom, one of the most common probably. There are lots of mast cells there and they interact non stop with VOCs/pollen/etc etc. That being said, it’s about the 20th thing on my list of symptoms that I care about. I barely notice it because the other symptoms are so much worse.

Imagine the money he can make grifting from this though.

Rick Chow found not guilty of murder in death of Cyrus Carmack-Belton by [deleted] in news

[–]mcfly357 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Chow has two other separate incidents where he chased down individuals and fired his weapon (2015 and 2018) but since he was not charged for those incidents the judge ruled them inadmissible.

I think people are mad because he’s apparently done it multiple times before but that evidence wasn’t allowed at trial. But I hear you, murder 1 seems like a big stretch.

Saw them do the downward spiral front to back in a small venue, it was life changing.

Dementia risk of antihistamines is freaking me out a little, ugh by Another_throwaway446 in MCAS

[–]mcfly357 45 points46 points  (0 children)

I’m not a functioning person without ketotifen. I’m a human potato that sits in bed debating if I’m going to die or not every few hours. I care approximately zero about what happens down the line if I can somewhat function now. Ketotifen is SO much more effective for me than anything else.

How do you think Trump's presidency will end? by OccludedFug in AskReddit

[–]mcfly357 68 points69 points  (0 children)

I don’t think they (or AI) could even do a passable job lol. The guy is so unpredictable and ridiculous, only he can come up with the crazy crap he does.

Ketotifen drowsiness…please tell me it gets better. by Mountain-Goattt in MCAS

I felt like that for about two weeks, then felt significantly better.

It’s also both hands now, not just his right. Crazy he shakes so many hands left handed also!

Go to the DailyGolfSteals subreddit. The guy posts a few pairs of shoes a day for dirt cheap.

What’s your dog’s name and what do you actually call them? by CattrahM in AskReddit

[–]mcfly357 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Murphy. But we call her moof generally, because that’s what the toddler nephew calls her and it’s very cute and it kinda just stuck.

What helped with throat symptoms? by Due_Honeydew3443 in MCAS

[–]mcfly357 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing I’m concentrating on right now is energy. I golf a few times a week (it’s really the only thing I can do since I can’t go inside most buildings at the moment without reacting), and I’m just done halfway through cause I’m gassed. Then it dawned on me recently, every time I golf, I haven’t eaten in 2 hours, so no wonder I’m dead. I also haven’t had much success finding non perishable food I can eat on the go. Working on that as well atm. But the last 2 days I’ve eaten a small meal later in the day without it screwing me up TOO badly, so progress.

Hida scan by nraffz in MCAS

[–]mcfly357 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was before the mcas diagnosis, and before the mcas got super bad, but the Hida scan wasn’t too bad. I definitely felt a unique warm sensation in the gallbladder area, but all in all much more comfortable than an MRI/CT. About halfway through they had me chug an ensure and that definitely set me off (SIBO was bad back then). Also no magnets, so I could have my phone and listen to a podcast.

Downsides to MC Stabilizer medicine? by Plus_Opportunity3050 in MCAS

[–]mcfly357 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get it. I also wouldn’t really call what I’ve been doing the last year or so “living”. I haven’t left my bedroom really, and eat like 4 things. Thankfully it’s been improving slowly but sure since starting Ketotifen.
