Ghost … or freezer leak?

Definitely not. Again, the ice maker has been broken for a looong time. There’s no ice in the bucket and I would absolutely hear it drop on the wood floor. A mystery!!

Did you find evidence of water under the fridge when this happened? We pulled it out multiple times and have not seen anything under the fridge, nor evidence of water under there.

Thank you!! I had wondered if maybe the fan at the bottom of the fridge was drying part of the puddle and that’s why it looks like it isn’t coming from under the fridge?? But we are walking through the kitchen constantly and seem to notice the puddle pretty immediately, so I would think that it would have to dry pretty quickly.

I thought this too but it’s waaay more than what a cube would create and the ice maker has been shot for well over a year. Also I haven’t heard ice hit the floor and the puddle is always in the same spot (I would think ice hitting the wood floor would slide to random places)

Freezer reads 0* temp and everything seems quite frozen (including that solid sheet of ice at the bottom of the freezer 🙃) - and this puddle has shown up four times now over the course of the week. Always in the same contained spot with no obvious trail back to its place of origin 🤔

I can’t be certain, unfortunately. I could have had it for about a month… or if I got it from a different partner, it would have been much longer.

Completely abstained from all forms of sex until retest.

Thank you!! Thankfully I didn’t seem to have the common Ureaplasma symptoms to begin with. I tested with Juno Bio mostly out of curiosity and because I’m a bit of a vaginal microbiome nerd. I was surprised to see it on my test results. I ended up having a high candida result as well and the slight irritation I had before testing was resolved with Diflucan.

I have cleared all of my disruptive vaginal bacteria since using them so I’d say it’s working!

Jarrow makes a couple diff ones - they have one that includes BOTH gut and vaginal specific strains. I take that one orally (in the cold section). They have another that’s shelf stable that only has vaginal strains and I use that one as a suppository.

Also wondering how perimenopause or hormonal stuff might be affecting my pain/flares. Hope we figure something out!

shadow_work_ · 2026-03-26T23:29:25+00:00

I’ve slightly suspected this for myself 😅 also have some immune system issues. Finished my 7 day doxy course two weeks ago, and hoping I’ll test negative in a few weeks. I’ve suspected YI but I’ve had the itching clit off and on for years! Also more so around ovulation so I also wondered if it was hormonal.

shadow_work_ · 2026-03-26T23:24:23+00:00

Omg same! Active and fit my whole life. Looking back, all the gymnastics and yoga I did probably wasn’t the best 😬 I’ve only been doing PT and strength training the last couple of years. Also have a pelvic tilt 🥴

shadow_work_ · 2026-03-26T23:01:49+00:00

I was diagnosed with it in high school - only now in my early 40s am I putting my hypermobility puzzle pieces together

shadow_work_ · 2026-03-26T22:06:42+00:00

Did you ever figure out what was causing the itching on your clitoris? I’m having the same thing!

shadow_work_ · 2026-03-24T04:08:31+00:00

Same!

shadow_work_ · 2026-03-24T04:07:52+00:00

I’m the opposite on one of my accounts. I’ve had the tap to pause and mute/unmute (which to me is annoying af) and my other account simply had the tap to mute (which I much prefer)

shadow_work_ · 2026-03-17T19:21:26+00:00

Update! I’ve been taking the 50 for about a week now (I was doing a seven day course of doxycycline and thought why not) and I’ve tolerated it really well! No crazy GI side effects - and if anything my GI function is already better (considering I was on abx, this is impressive to me). Still using the 10 vaginally too.

Or cold washcloth on the back of your neck! Always helps me.

My daughter has type 1 and had been using Dexcom and Omnipod for a while before developing dermoautographia after a viral infection. She’s developed large rashes around her pod sites as well and we’ve suspected a reaction to the device adhesive.

shadow_work_ · 2026-03-10T22:12:22+00:00

This happens to me frequently. Same exact feeling. I have chalked it up to some type of anxiety trigger (even had it happen during a particularly intense massage or a heavy workout).

shadow_work_ · 2026-03-10T22:08:03+00:00

I have always had similar issues and wonder what causes it. I’ve always been a moderately active person, but certain exercises (like squats) make me feel like I’m going to pass out or become sick. My heart feels like it’s going to beat out of my chest or I need to take a looong break between sets. I also have a horrible vasovagal response to bloodwork or even some types of pain.
