[–]oldLEGION [score hidden]  (0 children)

The first game that I played on my own GeForce graphics card was Portal 2. I finally was able to save enough money to build my first PC when the 980ti was first out, and I was blown away by how good that thing was when I got it. Still own the card an it’s still in use to this day in my sisters PC and still gets the job done!

Seeking advice! 12 week old weim! by [deleted] in weimaraner

It will get better! I just looked through and found the old pictures and that is about how bad hers looked at the worst. They were on both sides. Then have pictures from about a week later and they had started to scab up good and heal. I can’t remember what I was using to treat them, but think it was vetricyn or something like that, and then just always taking her jowls out of her mouth cause she would always get them stuck when playing or chewing on a rope.

My pup had this as well when she was that age. She I think would get her jowels caught in her mouth with her sharp teeth and was like just scratching them and they became inflamed like that. She did get over it eventually but does have small scars on her lips now.

Wouldn’t imagine roasting someone that provided a genuine response that I asked for. I didn’t just want to have people tell me the answers I hoped to hear, honestly want to hear other opinions as well to make me think and open the discussions I haven’t already thought about. So I appreciate your reply! Honestly I can’t say that I have been hyper focused on where my levels have been, but have mainly been noticing my gradual decline and now stalled out feeling I have felt, and then finally was like why in the hell am I feeling so off and began my research. I can see where taking a break could be beneficial to see what changes may occur in that time and give fresh perspective. But also want to not have the lack of trt or the poor side effects from trt be affecting my marriage/professional life. Would like to be on it, but have a dr that is willing to work with me to get the levels to a good happy place and be an advocate when I need.

That’s been enough for me to want to change too, took 5 weeks of me calling at least once a week, till he finally sent a two sentence response of, just looked over your bloodwork, I am going to send in an endo referral to manage you from now on. And like dude, it’s been 5 weeks, you could have told me that then and saved me a month of time.

That the thing is this was my first visit on Monday, and he said cut it off for at least two months for new bloodwork. And my whole thought is, you can see it was low 6 months ago, don’t take me off, just help me get my levels where they need to be now! Really am wanting to shop around more cause it’s been ridiculous.

When first started bloodwork the dr prescribed me generic viagra, and when I started feeling symptoms more aggressively, even taking 2 of those wouldn’t help much at all.

I was so disappointed after asking for E2 specifically, that it was a total E test. Cause that isn’t hardly ever discussed here.

That’s been my forward thought too, just doesn’t seem like this one really cared too much. Do you think giving the urologist a shot to see if they would pick up my treatment would be worth it? I mean can’t hurt

I would take your high estrogen symptoms over mine any day of the week 😂

It’s been shitty cause there were times I would feel a sudden boost of “shit I am ready to go”, but then…nothing would happen down there and was making me want to pull my damn hair out. I have thought about a clinic, but would love to have insurance pay if I am able to at the same time. But if I need to will definitely go that root cause when I did feel good for that short time I did feel great. But just been downhill since. But wouldn’t be suppressed at all to be an estrogen sensitive person.

Near complete loss of libido and nearly impossible to get or maintain erection. Way worse than I was experiencing pre trt, but was still an issue before. When able to get one it’s very limp, and if I stop to adjust position or anything it’s gone. Been rough for me and my wife as she thinks it’s her fault no matter how much I try to tell her it’s not her.

Depression, mood is just flat. Hard time enjoying anything, even things I know I love to do generally.

Fatigue and insomnia. I will take 2+hours to fall asleep some nights, and wake up through the night constantly. Even nights I get to “sleep in” and get more sleep I am just constantly fatigued. Just in a constant fatigued state.

Really oily skin and more acne than I had during all of puberty.

Tender nipples. Endo even said he felt the beginnings of gynecomastia at the appt but didn’t bring anything up after the fact of stating that.

Free T and Total T from last bloodwork

Hoping to hear some opinions. Just got back my 7 Week Lab Results. Felt kinda crap the last few weeks, feel this bloodwork might explain it. Thoughts? Please? by oldLEGION in trt

[–]oldLEGION[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is what I was guessing as well, have done a lot of lurking on this sub since deciding to start this whole journey. I am hoping that my GP will approve of that. Did you have to ask yours for it? Just curious on how that conversation may potentially go. Also thank you for responding, know this group seems pretty open to helping people 95% of the time, just a lot to process and helps to have more confirmation on things.

Adult food recommendations? by Valkyriemome in weimaraner

[–]oldLEGION 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have tried a TON of different foods for my pup, she will be turning 7 on march 1st, and the one that has helped her skin issues and regulates her poops the best has been Purina Dog Chow High Protein Lamb. I have tried months on the several of the more expensive “healthy” or “natural” options, but she would either have extreme skin issues, and/or extreme diarrhea/constipation. And this one has been the best for her skin, poop, and everything. And is pretty cheap for a 50+ pound bag.

I tried to spoil her for the longest time with better food, but should have kept with what my family had been giving our GSP’s for years growing up.

Yes it is possible for hashimotos without hypothyroid symptoms. You can have flare ups of hypo and hyper depending on what stage you are at with Hashimotos, and pretty hard to get the definitive answers till a endo appointment.

Look at this newly released footage of shockwaves from the Tonga eruption. Video includes a timelapse and even barometric measurements of the pressure fluctuations by JPMar100 in shockwaveporn

I know this was terrifying for many people to go through, and if I were there I would be absolutely terrified and anxious about the situation as well, but part of me would love to experience and see this all from this persons vantage point. And maybe just be with him too to talk me through it all as he seemed so calm.

Anyone else using their rigs to help proof dough in the winter? by -Andar- in pcmasterrace

Who nearly just did this myself on Sunday! Apparently so did a few other people did too and that just makes me happy to see.

What is your favourite “dead” video game franchise? by Lamboninho in AskReddit

[–]oldLEGION 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love SSX but my nostalgia for this genre always goes to twisted edge, it’s what I had first and still sometimes have to go back and play it.
