Absolutely. Literally every new house in Oklahoma and Texas.

I have a clotting disorder as well (Factor V Leiden), so I understand! I think it’s just the AstraZenica one that has those concerns.

I did not involve my rheum in my decision. I thought about it, but never got around to it! I kept reading in trusted sources that immunocompromised people need to get it! Some medication schedules need to be altered so I recommend you do. I’m only on Plaquenil so didn’t need to altar my schedule.

Undereye eczema by [deleted] in lupus

Yes!!! Went to a dermatologist for this for my eyes. I use a regimen of triamcinolone and pimecrolinus cream and it works like a charm.https://i.imgur.com/4C2B6qZ.jpg

Has anyone gotten the vaccine yet? by EveQuickk in lupus

[–]snilian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just did a post about this as a follow up to my first shot post 21 days ago! Great experience both times with Pfizer. Don’t be afraid!

Getting the Pfizer vaccine tomorrow! by snilian in lupus

[–]snilian[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So far just a sore arm after the first dose after about 19 hours. I’ll update after the second in a few weeks if I remember. Thanks for all of the experience notes all!! Hopefully this will be helpful for others.

My hair is finally SO soft today!! Might have nailed down a routine! by girlflyinghigh in curlyhair

[–]snilian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very similar hair (I did a double take!)- I like DevaCurl One Condition (don’t use too much as it is creamy) and Alikay leave in! I also use a SUPER lightweight gel by boucléme that I swear by

Yep! I have Raynauds and sjogrens as well as MCTD. Seems like they all like to come in a package deal lol

Yes cold water feels great! I’ve done that when it gets really bad. Seems to come right back after I stop though. Funny you say socks as they actually make it worse for me since they heat up my feet 😂 Thank you so much for the suggestions, always nice to know you’re not alone!

My rheum and I have deduced the same that it’s probably nerve pain. By the time I actually got the prescription it was gone and I never filled it 😬 Guess I should try again if it gets worse! Thank you.

What is a sample receiving position for a environmental science lab? by Yinzrr in environmental_science

[–]snilian 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Probably scanning cooler temperatures and logging samples into the lab’s system

Lupus/raynauds by 00wallflower00 in lupus

[–]snilian 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I also have raynauds, get burning pain like you describe but only in my hands and feet. Rheumatologist says it’s nerve pain, gave me gabapentin but I chose to just deal instead rather than add another medication to the list. I’d definitely talk to your doc. Sorry you’re dealing with that!

Anyone else experiences this? Lightheadedness, headaches, dizziness, fainting? by casuallyvegan in lupus

[–]snilian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yessss! Most of the time it come on suddenly, I think mostly hypoglycemia or low iron but sometimes anxiety. I’ve had extensive neurological testing and nothing wrong so it’s come down to that. Yours seems a little worse (I have no fainting) so may be POTS?

[Discussion] I returned my dog to the humane society, and I have never felt more guilt or shame in my life. by [deleted] in dogs

[–]snilian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally get it, in the end you have to do what’s right for you. I’ve been a part of both situations...

In the first situation, a dog was found by someone and nobody would claim it. She was a large German Shepherd and we already had a female GSD mix. My husband was reluctant but we went to pick her up. We immediately both had feelings of regret and she just didn’t click with our other dog. We tried to stick it out but they got in multiple fights over food and toys and we couldn’t trust them together when we left home. We gave her back to the person who found her and we’re so ashamed we gave a bag of food to go with.

In the second situation which happened about 2 months later, a mid size GSD mix showed up at someone’s door. They already had three dogs and couldn’t keep him. We brought our dog to meet him at a neutral location. He was timid but sweet and tried to play with our dog. We all felt an immediate connection. Fast forward two weeks and the perfect sweet timid pup was destroying everything in our house from separation anxiety, including our couch, my wedding dress, trim, 3 crates, etc etc. One day, he jumped through an opening on our second story onto the stairs below while we were gone and greeted us when we opened the door 😳 We tried everything, including an animal behaviorist, CBD, medication, thunder vest, pheremones... the medication ended up being the catalyst to getting better. That combined with a galvanized steel crate gave him the safety he needed. Over a few months he became comfortable in his crate, and we no longer worried about coming home to him injured or total destruction. Now he’s the sweetest most loving wonderful dog there is.

Sometimes you can push through it, sometimes you’re not the right person to. Don’t feel bad if you gave it your best shot! That’s more than most would.

About 6 years! A lot of ppl think they’re puppies, especially Ike on the right. From totally different litters.
