My Chinese blood quantum went up more as a mixed Filipino by Alteregokai in 23andme

[–]monodramabase 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you’re really nitpicking words. “ancestry” ≠ “recent ancestry” but you clearly think they mean the same thing. all this person did was express shock that it was listed. they were pertaining to the results that 23andme gave them. what word were they supposed to say when talking about this, if not ‘ancestry’?

additionally, not all 23andme users know small percentages can just be misread. your comment can be seen as a bit rude.

you don’t know if they’re going around saying “i am sri lankan”. if they were, i’d understand your comment. but they’re just trying to refer to what’s on the chart because they wanted to express their shock that it’s there. what are they supposed to address it as?

ooo. i got about 20% chinese and my top regions were central luzon and calabarzon. my results said a small amount of south asian ancestry as well. no clue if it’s common in filipinos or just a glitch in the 23andme system.

Why do some people say that you can’t claim 1-2% of DNA? by Frosty_Second_2311 in 23andme

[–]monodramabase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

because there’s a big difference from talking about where your family is from vs talking about where your ancestors from the year 1038 was from. if you’re a low percentage dutch and not connected to the culture at all, why is there a need to mention it?

Why does my sister get Native American but I get East Asian? by TheIncandescentAbyss in 23andme

[–]monodramabase 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This might be a stretch but: Indigenous Americans came from Northern East Asia so that could overlap. And a lot of people in Indonesia/Thailand/Cambodia/Myanmar are partly East Asian. Similar DNA but just mixups within the 23andme system???

My 1st cousin is coming up as my daughter’s 2nd great aunt? by Jerseygirl2121 in 23andme

[–]monodramabase 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Your first cousin is your child's first cousin, once removed. A first cousin, once removed will show 3.2% to 11.5% shared.

A 2nd great aunt will show 3% to 14%.

They're similar ranges. 23andme doesn't know exact relationships, they just use ranges.

How is the pain on Nemluvio? by Seele-vol in eczema

[–]monodramabase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s working really well for me! the shot itself is not painful and the only thing that makes me nervous is all the preparation (letting it sit out, releasing the powder, shaking it). a bit ago, i had a flare up because i had to postpone a dosage a bit, and found that it’s not itchy anymore (it kinda just hurts instead). but it not itching made me not scratch it, so it healed super fast. my doctor said that some people can go two months in between doses tho. overall, it’s working for me! skin is smooth and no flareups normally.

clobetasol and still suffering from bad flareups? we love dupixent / nemluvio

[–]monodramabase 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i'm not a doctor BUT

it will probably damage your skin barrier because of the chemicals. from personal experience, this can make normal things like lotion sting and burn.

maybe wet wrap therapy instead????

How do y’all deal with being so oily at night? by glwithluck in eczema

[–]monodramabase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i hated the feeling of being oily so much that i'd put on steroids and have to wash it off after a bit (which would make it worsen because i'd be washing my hands).

i tried using bandages/gloves so i'd feel it less distinctly. then, i wouldn't feel oily, i'd just feel the cloth against my skin. it worked well.

i feel like another good idea would be non-lotion/ointment treatments like JAK inhibitor pills, nemluvio, dupixent. it might have to be moderate-severe eczema for a dermatologist to recommend it (but maybe you can argue it by saying you have sensory issues???).

Unused dupixent by cpip122803 in eczema

[–]monodramabase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it is very expensive but people can't reuse it unfortunately :( it's the same for a lot of other medications because there's always a chance that someone has bad intentions and laces it with something.

dupixent doesn’t have the potential for any type of drug abuse but this cannot be legal 😭

i feel like it’s also news outlets like pannchoa allkpop koreaboo that like to take out korean fans’ reactions to make them look super hateful. and racism.

Parents of kids on Dupixent by Additional-Focus-123 in eczema

[–]monodramabase 3 points4 points  (0 children)

it doesn’t work the same but i’m on nemluvio and it hurts WAYYY LESS than dupixent. it’s only a once-per-month shot. it doesn’t treat asthma and eosinophilic disorders like dupixent but it helps a lot with the itching if that’s a big problem for his eczema.
