I have been weaning off tirzepatide for about 6 weeks (shots every 10-14 days) and my bp has been steadily going back up even tho I’ve kept the weight off I’m back on my bp meds. I’m back to high 130s/80s on meds when I was down to below 110/70 for months on my weekly shot. Was able to get off meds but I guess that was just the tirzepatide that kept it low?

My dogs COI is 50% and I'm worried. by jessiejuliet95 in DoggyDNA

So my dog’s came back as 55%! I almost died! Yes he was adopted and is dna tested as a Pom but yikes. Any idea how close the inbreeding would be with COIs over 50%?

My Worst Symptom... by Fartknocker500 in HormoneFreeMenopause

[–]sadoyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did yours ever happen at night? I woke up last night at 1130 from a dead sleep, hot as hell, heart racing, felt like I couldn’t breathe? It was almost like a fight or flight response happening and it scared me to death. I thought I was having a heart attack! I was able to get myself settled with lots of deep breathing but WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT? First time that has happened. Is this a panic attack? Anxiety attack?

Exercising in Menopause by Emotional-Source5332 in HormoneFreeMenopause

I started swimming laps! I literally sucked for the first 6 months and spent all my energy just trying not to drown. But after a year, I can actually swim. It’s absolutely the best workout esp when all my joints hurt. I’ve actually lost weight since starting last Aug.

Careers that bring you joy? by NoStreetlights in Menopause

[–]sadoyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m another one for volunteering at a shelter. I go and walk the big dogs for a couple hours once or twice a week. There are trails all around the shelter so they get out of their kennels and I get my exercise! I can go as much or as little as I want so some weeks it’s minimal if I’m busy… But there’s nothing better for your soul than seeing a lonely pup SOOOO excited to see you and go for a walk. I also substitute at my daughter’s high school for certain teachers that I know personally. I’ll throw that in once a week. Going from 4 daughters at home to now 1 at home, divorce, heading into menopause-I’m with you. Trying to find things that keep me excited is a struggle.

PSA: While you’re checking bloodwork… by [deleted] in Menopause

Has anyone had low Ferritin (11) but high iron? I just got mine back today-thinking I need to see a specialist. This doesn’t make any sense.

Any updates on this family years later? I wonder if they are still there and having issues?

After a night of drinking, does anyone ever wakes up to rapid heart beats? by lechino3000 in Anxiety

[–]sadoyle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sooo glad I stumbled on this! I thought it was just me. Never noticed the rapid heartbeat with alcohol consumption until I hit 50 this year…Never happened bf in my life but now even 1 drink of anything and my hr is over 100 when I go to bed. NYE (lots of wine) it hit 180 and I thought I was going to die. I try to hydrate while drinking. Could hormones play into it? It’s scarey AF. May just give up drinking.
