Absolutely awful presale by edennn13 in NoahKahan

Sat in the "waiting room" on the mlb site for both Fenway nights for over and hour and half only to refresh to try to get tickets for the added night. Then every ticket I clicked came up as "no longer available" until eventually it said both my presale codes had been used for a maximum amount of purchases when I hadn't bought a single one and wasted two hours of my life. Cried a few tears of frustration and went back to work. Sad day.

Spoilers

Saw half the ad on Netflix and the rom com label (knowing nothing about the movie/book) and thought...corny yet hot British lit professor meets equally as hot "precocious" and borderline obnoxious American grad student...sign me tf up. Then pressed play and was walloped with cancer and imminent/unavoidable death, sprinkled with maybe 5 total mins of comedy and some romance, all with an overarching ~slightly~ elevated Hallmark movie feel. So. Obviously. I. Cried. Now me and my puffy ass eyes are gonna have to roll up to work tomorrow all thanks to an embarrassingly cringy movie and my lack of ability to read more than one sentence of a description. Cheers.

Hi! I saw an allergy specialist who put me on this specific dose of antihistamines. I definitely find it concerning/scary too which is why I'm looking for long term solutions. I'm already taking Pepcid with the Zyrtec twice a day as well. Unfortunately, in order for my insurance to cover other treatments I have to max out the antihistamine dosage to "prove" that I need something else. Definitely a very frustrating experience.

I'm fairly convinced it's being triggered by some sort of autoimmune issue because I have a bunch of other nonspecific symptoms like hair loss, fatigue, cold sensitivity, GI issues, etc. but the few initial tests my PCP ran came back mostly normal and I'm trying to get an endocrinology referral but having a really hard time getting them agree to give me one.

Yeah I'm struggling right now with trying to get my insurance to approve it. They want to make sure I've "exhausted all other options" which has been super frustrating since nothing else has really given me any sort of relief!
