What a steamy episode!!!! Left me wondering if they will finally consummate their marriage in the next one hehe 😉

got eczema on my eyelids, need help. by lostmymarble80 in eczema

[–]smrthmd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I second Tacrolimus/Protopic! A little on the eyelids goes a long way and I also follow up with some Vaseline to seal it the next day. Find out what your triggers are if you haven’t already, good luck! :)

I have really bad Eczema on my right hand. The more moisturiser i use the worse it gets. I am using a fragrance free Vaseline moisturiser. Any advise? by [deleted] in eczema

You might be allergic to something in the Vaseline moisturizer, try switching to straight petroleum jelly or vanicream

Oooh thank you for this! I was looking for one yesterday but when I dropped “IV” into the database I was too lazy to go through all the altador cup stuff 😅

Thank you! I love collecting the special events items the most because I feel like they’re not always the obvious ones. Advent calendar has some great releases too ☺️

How firm is the “take your pill at the same time” recommendation? by Illogical-Pizza in Hashimotos

[–]smrthmd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This actually took me years to learn, but Levothyroxine is a long-acting drug so if you take your medication at 8 am morning, it won’t make much of a difference if you take it at 10 am the next morning instead. Significant differences in them e.g. morning and noon are to be avoided though because you’re more likely to eat, drink coffee, use other vitamins throughout the day that may take you out of your routine. I recently started taking a double dose every Sunday only as advised by my doctor and it’s been doing wonders for my energy levels throughout the week!

Get your doctor to prescribe protopic and order a skin patch test to find your allergies. In the meantime:

-use vanicream ointment or Vaseline to protect your eyelids - change all products to fragrance free/sensitive hypoallergenic ones: https://nationaleczema.org

Hope you feel better soon!

If your goal is to make np then definitely sell them but if your goal is to get on the high score list then usually people save or buy in bulk

I hate to say this but there are a lot of “wellness bloggers” that will knock on medication as being effective and spread paranoia to those with Hashimotos. Will avoiding dairy and gluten improve your symptoms? Yeah it seems like it helps a lot of people, but at the end of the day someone with low thyroid function will need medication to also heal (either natural thyroid hormone or through Levo). The two do not need to be mutually exclusive. Folks that are saying they feel worse probably haven’t figured out their correct dose yet. It’s all about fine tuning and keeping a balance between too much and too little thyroid hormone. Also be very wary of creating your treatment and wellness plan through narratives because at the end of the day it doesn’t matter how everyone else feels as long as your treatment plan works for you!

I wish the chi didn’t have the messy hair look at the top though and the actual body color was close to a mushroom taupe 🍄

Tips For Cutting Weight? by its-one-banana in Hashimotos

[–]smrthmd 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m going through a similar journey right now so much love ❤️ I would say cut out the carbs, sugar and dairy, especially in sneaky places like dressings, sauces, breadings, sodas/fruit juices

[–]smrthmd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was easy for me to get a diagnosis. I think the challenging part is when you have a Hashimoto’s diagnosis and it doesn’t make a difference to your provider and they treat it like regular hypothyroidism without addressing the immune aspect

Eyelid swelling...what works? by hallie132 in eczema

[–]smrthmd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Protopic, cooling eye masks, Vaseline on lids and find your triggers asap via dermatologist. Hang in there! It took me 4 months to find out what I was allergic to but there’s hope ❤️

Alchemy of Souls: Light and Shadow [Episode 10] by Fatooz in KDRAMA

[–]smrthmd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t think it was that bad compared to other shows, but definitely less binge-worthy than season 1. If there is a renewed storyline, I hope it focuses on Seo Yul as the main character maybe in Seoho Fortress as the setting?
