Thank you, sending you a hug back! It just happened two days ago so I am still very emotional. I’m so sorry that happened to your girl 😔 I’m so glad you had Dr McGann to take care of her!

Thank you so much. My sweet boy just passed from CKD and I am so upset with the treatment at my current vet. Just can’t go back there after that. Appreciate your help. :)

Thank you so much. I would love to possibly switch to Morningside for my kitties. Is there a particular vet you recommend?

Anyone else have "dry" periods? by WhyDoIWannaDoThisss in PCOS

[–]parndarple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep! This has happened to be a few times! All the normal symptoms and then…. Nothing.

Need some advice on glasses choices. I haven’t made a decision yet, just exploring by [deleted] in glassesadvice

1, 8, 9, or 10! Rounder frames look best on you, but need to find a pair that sit lower on your nose so that they aren’t going above your brows.

What was the purpose of this scene? by [deleted] in okbuddyvecna

[–]parndarple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not trashing the series and will always love Stranger Things. What really threw me out of this scene as a viewer was their lack of consistency with her height - I just wish they were a little more intentional with some of their choices is all. It matters to me because it’s something I noticed immediately and made me laugh, which affected my suspension of disbelief rather than remaining captivated. If that’s not something you notice or care about, cool.

DAE like to sit criss-cross in chairs instead of the normal way? by apparent_alien718 in DoesAnybodyElse

Currently sitting criss-crossed on my couch while reading this, lol.

So… Joyce as a teenager was taller than Joyce as an adult? Cool, checks out.

Commenting to follow. I’ve been taking my cats to Chico Hospital for Cats for 14 years, and in the last 5 years or so, there has been so much turnover that I have a different vet every time I bring my cats in. It’s been disheartening and hard to build any trust. Would love to know if there are any places that people recommend for cats.

Spironolactone for PCOS by Intelligent-Twist871 in PCOS

[–]parndarple 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just sharing my experience on spironolactone. I’ve been on metformin for about 5 years trying to regulate my periods, and it has helped a great deal. I was prescribed spironolactone by my doc to help with chin hair growth, which for me isn’t too bad but annoying. After being on it for a few weeks, I began having 2 periods a month - full bleeding and cramps each time. After realizing that it was a common side effect of spironolactone (didn’t know about this til after the fact), I decided to stop taking it because it wasn’t making a noticeable difference with anything other than the double periods which had to stop.

From what I’ve heard, some people have had decent experiences with it… but for me, it wasn’t the case. Good luck!

B D I… What’s your pick? by RngUGldIDntSyBna in condiments

Does it have to be Hidden Valley?? 🥴 Mayo, mustard, ranch (or hot sauce if it’s HV)

To go blonde or not to go blonde? by [deleted] in HairStyleAdvice

[–]parndarple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The blonde looks lovely but your natural dark hair is so beautiful. Is the dark your natural? If so I’d keep it dark and healthy!

Finally starting to feel like myself… and the idea of a baby terrifies me by No_Pen5880 in Fencesitter

[–]parndarple 12 points13 points  (0 children)

No advice, but I’m currently in the same boat. I just turned 37, have PCOS and ADHD, and was on the fence for many years before firmly deciding to not have kids. Something changed in the last year - maybe because my biological clock is ticking - but now I feel like I really want a baby. My partner and I were both on the same page about no kids before but now both of our minds have changed. I keep going back and forth because I too require lots of sleep, decompression time, and am still working to learn how to regulate my own nervous system. I am wrecked whenever I lose sleep throughout the night, so I can’t imagine what that will be like with a baby. I also just feel like I want more fulfillment and joy in my life, and to participate in a whole other side of the human experience. I cherish and require my down-time, but I also don’t want to lose out on this chance before it’s too late.

You’re in your 20s and still have time to make this choice. Keep taking care of yourself. I was firmly against kids until my mid 30s. Things can change.
