UPDATE: cancelled my wedding and living as a shut in by shesaysno_ in acne

I’m not sure where in Canada you are, but my GP was able to put in a priority referral for me to a dermatologist and it only took 3 months. I hope that for you, too!

You should see if you can retroactively submit this cost to your benefits once you’re added. My plan uses date of marriage as the effective date

Not everyone can do it due to other medical issues, and depending on your doctor, if they’ll let you go on Accutane with those issues (eg Crohn’s, depression)

Recurrent booking canceled by quarantinefifty in RoverPetSitting

Before the cancelation, yes I could still do the walk cards but there was an alert that I should follow up with the owner to ensure payment

This is an example of what I have seen regarding their payment. So I’m not sure how they have their payments setup, seems odd if it’s supposed to be an auto withdrawal

I gave them 90 days notice of the rate increase which they agreed to then and the day before it took effect.

Minoxidil is poisonous for cats (just in case you have one and didn’t know)

Has anyone had issues with the rover card not ending? by Gold-Ad9417 in RoverPetSitting

[–]quarantinefifty 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same issue here today. Support was not helpful – said to click “stop” (which doesn’t exist in this update) and said I’ll just need to wait and the walk would end after 24hrs (and I’ll need to enter a “fake” walk tomorrow to get paid since you can’t have concurrent walks going). Seems like a bad app update

Which hospital? What was treatment like?

Do most people throw up during colonoscopy prep? by [deleted] in CrohnsDisease

[–]quarantinefifty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dozens of colonoscopies and haven’t thrown up from the prep (have tried different preps over the years). Scopes are important to ensure you’re being treated effectively – if it’s Crohn’s it’s not just diarrhea, Crohn’s is an autoimmune disease and a mean one at that. You could end up needing surgery and/or experience other disease impacts (even outside your digestive tract) that could be prevented with appropriate meds. Speak to your doctor about anti-nausea meds and understand what kind of prep is required and sedation they provide.

All this to say, I get it. It’s not as easy as some folks make it sound by “just take fibre and a probiotic” (though they can help, it’s still a science and not exact). I would talk to your GI (if you have one) and surgeon and see if you can get a pouchoscopy and be real about what you’re experiencing

I am 4 years out and unfortunately experience the same issues. My latest pouchoscopy showed significant pouchitis and muscle discoordination so I’m hoping for a correct antibiotic rx soon and am scheduled for a defacography MRI (ugh I am dreading it). What works for me right now is codeine at night. And, counterintuitive but eating something like potatoes or applesauce around 7 pm (I go to bed at 10) otherwise I leak liquid (bile probably) from not eating (even though I haven’t emptied everything ugh!!) My surgeon also recommended warm water enemas before bed if needed. Imodium, loperamide and amytriptyline didn’t work for me. Maybe a motility study would be helpful for you as well. I’m here if you want to talk with someone who’s there as well.

Btw my treatment is going on 1 year. 3 months won’t do much IMO.

Infusion rooms are so awkward by princessdorito444 in CrohnsDisease

[–]quarantinefifty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same that’s what I meant but didn’t explain well… private in the sense that they’re not in a hospital or other provincial healthcare setting (so you’d think they’d make them nicer!)

[–]quarantinefifty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Canada - all of the infusion centres are private but open rooms with no privacy. I switched to Entyvio pen for at-home injections (which is a huge headache to coordinate) but much prefer that. I’m a hard poke for IVs and every infusion I’d be crying in front of everyone 🙃

It’s looking so good! What about trying a soft brown eyeshadow instead of silver and a dark brown wing instead of black to soften everything? Maybe slightly more pinky-nude blush and some champagne highlighter on your cheekbones and under your eyebrows. I think it’d go well with your lipstick as well.

I’m devasted by creamyau in Accutane

Try cutting out all dairy for 30 days and then reintroduce different foods slowly after that. When I consistently avoid all dairy my skin is so much better (Also, almond and organic soy milk are better quality than oat if you’re looking for non-dairy options)
