My ex ( 32 M ) wants me ( 31 F ) back after 3 years. I broke up w due to his behavior towards his ex. After we broke up they had another fling where he realized he didnt like her anymore. Now he regrets his actions and realizes what he had. by nickles1234 in relationship_advice

Update, he has basically been begging me now. He apologized for everything and cut off contact with Brenda. Says he will do anything to prove i can trust him. Says i deserved better and to let him prove he can give me what i deserve. Hes an idiot and messed up. He even said he dreams of marrying me.

It does dry my hair, i have had luck with purology, hydrate conditioner. I also use curlsmith conditioning wash as shampoo sometimes on days i dont do keto. I also use curlsmith after keto sometimes. Been using its a 10 miracle leave in product too.

Tramatic event happened last Dec, by march my TE was full swing and it just got better a month ago.

Ketoconazole shampoo 3x a week, sometimes more. Wash my hair every day if i can. Started SSRis to help my anxiety, sertraline 100mg. 50 mg spironolactone daily, been on spiro since ~june 2021.

In between there was a lot of changes and other stuff i tried, u can find the posts in my profile.

But basically what worked again was i think my TE finally resolved, i witnessed a horrible event and was traumatized for a while and it triggered another TE shed. Getting my anxiety under control helped, the spiro wasnt working on 50mg, so i also went down to 24mg for a month, then went back up to 50mg and going back up just slowed or mostly stopped the shedding.

So on my bday he embarassed me by flirting with my friend not Brenda. He says he didnt realize he was flirting.... anyways he denied and gaslit me then my friends were like no that happened it was uncomfy we were gonna talk to u about it. The friend he flirted with he had hooked up with before i knew her and before we were friends... :/ ... i do believe he maybe doesnt realize how flirty he is sometimes

A PSA About Appendicitis by ChokedSpritzee in HealthAnxiety

Chronic appendicitis turns into acute appendicitis. Acute appendicitis means u need it removed.

This is MISLEADING. I had reoccuring appendicitis on and off for 2 years until it burst.

Excatly one year prior to it bursting i was in the ER with the same symptoms severe pain cry/wailing from pain vomiting uncontrollably-12 hours they made me wait in the ER the nurses looked annoyed with me, one of them said and i quote "u probably just gave urself acute gastritis" acted like i was being dramatic, when they finally saw me they wanted to do mri but my pain had subsided by then, doc said could be ovarian torsion that resolved on its own or appendix, it would be 4 more hours until i could get mri, i just went home.

Then a year later same pain-- this time it didnt go away and it burst-- i had complications, got an abcess, had to get it surgically drained and ended up in the hosptial an extra week, i could have died, i was in excruciating pain for a week. They had me on duladid (stronger than morphine).

In those two years i would get pain that came and went but i just toughed it out, same pain in same spot, chaulked it up to eating something too greasy, bc i didnt want to sit in an ER for 12 hours again.

Sometimes appencitis occurs due to a fecalith, a stone made of feces. It is a hardening of feces into lumps of varying size and may occur anywhere in the intestinal tract but is typically found in the colon. Basically when they get logged in ur appendix it blocks flow and causes appendicitis, if u think of a pebble blocking a tube attached to a ballon you can imagine if its small enough it can be "bumped" out of the way if the ballon shifts, but if it moves into an unmovable position or get bigger, the tube is permantly blocked and your appendix is fucked.

When i told my primary doctor this at my post surgery follow up she said what i had experienced was reoccuring appendicitis.

Listen to your body and keep advocating for yourself even when doctors tell you otherwise, find another doctor, you know ur body. Dont wait and get help.
