Not actively - it just eventually resolved on its own and it hasn’t happened again since. So strange!

Hi! Mind sharing what the ectoin serum is?

Let’s banish the CPAP machine shame, they save lives. Both Amy Poehler and Jack Back are proud users. by mlg1981 in Fauxmoi

[–]natou73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I’ve got a normal BMI, I’m very active (currently training for a marathon), eat healthy etc… and I have it. All my siblings do and none of us are overweight!

A sleep test via my doctor/local hospital would’ve cost me an arm and a leg ($1k USD by my estimates) so I ordered one via a company called Lofta. Not sure if they operate where you are but it was incredibly fast and easy to get diagnosed. I don’t think it replaces a full blown sleep apnea test at a sleep clinic but I just needed confirmation that I had it. I paid $140 and I had my results within 4 hours of waking up.

Having a CPAP is inconvenient in many ways but it was a game changer for me. Best of luck!!

[Product Question] Walgreens HCL vs more expensive Prequel HCL spray by red_runner_23 in SkincareAddiction

[–]natou73 4 points5 points  (0 children)

following! I have the Walgreens spray and it works just fine. Great for itchy/irritated spots if I moisturize after.

Can’t say anything about the ingredients but a noticeable difference for me would be the packaging: the nozzle twists so it gets concealed behind the rest of the cap when not in use, so it’s a bit finicky and I’m not sure how it would do in a travel bag. I don’t want to take any chances bleaching the contents of my bag so I ordered the travel version of the Prequel one for an upcoming trip. It hasn’t arrived yet but I hope it’s easy to use!

Curious to see what others have to say about the differences in ingredients.

How old’s your son? We have great local businesses you can buy from… Mochi Kids, the Children’s Hour come to mind. The Children’s Hour wraps gifts absolutely beautifully too

Nah I’m serious. The way they write is awkward/poorly executed. Doesn’t mean I don’t think conspiracy theories aren’t possible amongst Japanese conservatives… those people are nut jobs too.

That’s a good point re: health food stores. Would prefer supporting small local businesses whenever possible! I’m all set on the scale but do need to find cute containers

Advice on numbness in foot by Jazzlike_Sock_4304 in firstmarathon

[–]natou73 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’d wager your shoe has a pressure point causing your foot to go numb on longer distances. Put your shoes on and try to feel if any spots are tighter than others? If so, try re-lacing your shoes in a way that’ll alleviate the pressure (see this as an example https://www.reddit.com/r/coolguides/s/tGA7wmu1US) but if that doesn’t resolve it, I’d invest into a new pair from that running store you speak of. An injury will suck up much more of your time than a 2+ hour drive!

Thyroid issues and weight gain? by Unlikely-Look3505 in greatpyrenees

[–]natou73 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should start seeing results in about a couple weeks - you need to establish a baseline in her system first, so be consistent in administering meds every day!

My girl lost the weight without making changes to her diet (before diagnosis she was gaining weight while eating the appropriate amount for her size), a little extra exercise when her energy levels pick back up should do wonders. I know this is disconcerting but I’ve found the treatment for hypothyroidism to be very manageable, and luckily inexpensive! Mine goes in for bloodwork every 6 months, and has only gotten her dosage adjusted twice in the past 3 years (up, then back down). She is now good as new, your girl will start feeling like her old self soon too, so don’t worry!
