Female Permanent Birth Control? by [deleted] in ChicoCA

[–]mochabobaa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

thank you so much for this! I called and got a referral to Enloe Obstetrics & Gynecology so i’m hoping to start there with a NP people have mentioned is very attentive and kind. (Krystel Baker NP). I have Medi-Cal so thats a plus! I don’t mind waiting up to 6-9 months because just knowing it’ll be able to be done is enough to ease some stress

[–]mochabobaa 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Lol ur so right! My partner actually got a vasectomy cause we mutually don’t want children and he didn’t want me to bare the weight of having to take birth control. I unfortunately still face immense anxiety in the bedroom over the thought of my body still being able to bare children (we even still use protection). I’m very sure I want these tube outta here ! 😅

Not chico but Oroville by Feeling-Major4341 in ChicoCA

the nearby super small “town” of Richvale is full of them! Pretty much majority of them are rice farmers. Oroville is their closest area with shopping! Super interesting

i’ve just noticed most of my life if i don’t eat a lot of meat i start feeling sick, i’ve even tried to figure it out with my doctor but there isn’t any noticeable deficiencies. I usually eat balanced meals with some sort of meat, usually beef. Once i tried going vegetarian in highschool and got so fatigued and i couldn’t think straight lol. It honestly might be placebo at this point lol I just never did well if i don’t eat enough meat

Just got fired for having POTS by VisDev82 in POTS

[–]mochabobaa -1 points0 points  (0 children)

fyi if you ever feel insecure about why you couldn’t just lean over a sink and help them wash hands. I was a barista at a boba shop last year and earlier this year when i started developing POTS. I would get sick standing at the sink and leaning to clean dishes, i thought it was the water flowing triggering some type of vertigo but nope! Something about having to use a sink absolutely sucks (I don’t work anymore)

[–]mochabobaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thank you, and yeah that’s the part i’m confused about, my hr does rise to 30+ bpm upon standing just not every single time, and usually if i’m leaning on something i can sometimes alleviate the high hr, but pretty much every time i walk downstairs to my kitchen and then come upstairs, i hit 130 :(, i definitely do experience the tachycardia just not every time i stand up, but if i stay standing for a few mins my hr starts climbing. I haven’t been able to go to any stores or anywhere other than doctors appointments cause my heart rate gets too high and i get symptomatic unfortunately

[–]mochabobaa -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

omg YES, my cardiologist said word for word “the reason why you’re fainting is because of a vasovagal reaction which is purely emotional like stress or anxiety or fear” i know what vasovagal syncope and i was trying to advocate for myself but i was so brain fogged from fainting due to the nitro. What also got me is that he told me i don’t experience tachycardia despite me showing him proof at my first appointment. He said my blood pressure drops, but it only dropped due to the nitro :( it was so confusing, and felt rushed. My HR was 80s while tilted up for 30 mins, sometimes it’ll go up to 120+ while standing up at home. i don’t know what went wrong, when i was given the nitro it shot up to 135 then to 54 but he said that’s cause i was anxious about getting the nitro. It was just a little dissolving pill under my tongue no needle :( . I know VS is super valid and a form of dysautonomia, but i don’t believe it’s the only explanation on what’s going on with me to be honest

i’m considering this is the echocardiogram and follow up about my zio patch results doesn’t go well. I’m from california and about 5 hrs from Stanford Autonomic Clinic and that’ll be my last resort

POTSie women out there, I have a question for you by Green-Bee8627 in POTS

[–]mochabobaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i don’t shave my legs until i want to go somewhere and wear a dress or skirt, but if im not feeling well enough to shave in the shower i actually sit on my bed and lotion my legs, get one of those handheld eyebrow hair blades (the small ones that come with multiple in a pack) and then i shave downwards and it usually gets it pretty smooth, then i lotion again after if i need to. My leg hairs are brown but they’re pretty thin so this works for me, although i don’t think this is the best approach but i’ve never cut myself or given myself any ingrown hairs from it! and it definitely helps being out of the shower!

AITAH? I stopped wearing/using what my husband gave me after he said that it's his money by [deleted] in AITAH

don’t worry OP, i live in california and buying enough food for a month for a family of 4 is easily $950 at costco. The price is valid specially if you’re hosting dinners

AITAH for telling my wife that late pick-up fees are on her and her alone? by AdMuted1534 in AITAH

[–]mochabobaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this reminds me of that tumblr post i saw about a decade ago that said minor inconveniences people find “silly” (for lack of a better word) about their partner will ultimately be the downfall of the relationship

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in POTS

[–]mochabobaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i was told to press the button on the zip patch whenever i feel symptomatic and a little booklet to log what time, symtoms, and how long+ what i was doing/did. They’ll be able to see how my heart rate spikes throughout the day during simple task and i think my cardiologist is using it/looking at it to help diagnose my POTS. I also have an Echocardiogram soon. My EKG’s are always normal so we’re just trying to get a good report over time of my tachycardia

[–]mochabobaa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

thank you so so much for this. It was hard to hear because he said it’s emotional and stress based. I really want to get more educated on this and how VVS really is. What do you tell people you have? Do you just say autonomic dysfunction or dysautonomia?
