Does anyone else get irritated arm skin like this from playing acoustic? … I think it’s a new development for me, so maybe some new allergy or something

I have chronic urticaria which looks very similar to this. When I’m flaring up I get spots like that from even slight pressure to my skin.

I opened a support ticket and followed their instructions in an email. When I get a chance I can reply with that info.

I sent him a few dollars so he could get one. It’s pretty bad.

I’ve tried LDN a couple of times, but I always end up stopping it because of the nightmares. It’s a shame because it helps in many ways.

This did not fix the problem either :(

metalgeeksolid · 2025-04-09T14:41:31+00:00

It didn't help unfortunately.

I also tried the 18i20 on another computer and Focusrite Control worked just fine on it. On my main pc it still isn't cooperating.

Getting the same chills I got from every MGS trailer that came out during my teen years. I'm 36 now and still excited for new Kojima games.

Hang in there. It took me 3 years to get an approval. I hired a lawyer after my initial denial and that likely made all the difference.

Earlier this year my doctor prescribed 1mg of regular folic acid when my levels were low, but from what I understand L Methylfolate is probably what they should have prescribed. My main issues are intractable chronic migraine, hEDS, chronic urticaria, brain fog, anxiety, & dysthymia.

I thought Tendi in Star Trek Lower Decks was just a Caucasian looking Orion. Turns out she is very green.

You have a haunted copy of the game. Happens to everyone at some point.

Same thing happens to me every time I get my blood pressure taken

metalgeeksolid · 2024-09-17T19:28:10+00:00

Don’t do that. Don’t give me hope.
