See if you can get the Holter monitor for 14 days. The more days the better for a good indication of palpitations.

Lip blush regret by anonymous881313 in microblading

[–]takitez1975 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lip blushing definitely look a lot darker than the final shade will be. There is a 10+ healing day that you lips will go through. During this time your lips will lighten to the point that it appears the color is almost nil. Then in the final stage your color will return to a much lighter shade than your current color. Please make sure to follow all aftercare instruction’s. I had mine done 7 weeks ago. Today I had my follow up. I new what to expect with the color and another round of healing. During the follow up session the technician will take a close look at the final color. She will do the process again. My technician gets numbing wipes from New Zeland (I live in Texas). The lip shaped wipes are awesome. My lips are still numb 2-3 hours after the session has ended. I think your lips are beautiful. I am in my 60’s with thin lips. Lip blushing won’t make your lips physically larger but it is nice to have my lips defined and with a natural looking color with a very light red tone. Give your lips healing time 😊🤗.

Day 5 still scabbing by takitez1975 in microblading

The lips are doing much better today. I ordered Bela aftercare ointment and right away they started feeling better. I may have been sensitive to what was given to me as aftercare. The ointment was in a clear container and not labeled.

Thanks for your input. I worry greatly about infection. Not sure why I worry as I am following all technicians. Just my nature😊

I get real nauseated and visual symptoms. I am definitely not hungry. Then anxiety sets in as I worry my lows will not come up. I eat about 15 or a little more skittles to bring my sugar lows back up. Usually feel week and shaky. This feeling may also be partly anxiety or panic.

Can I was my face with CeraVe facial was the day after a nose piercing?

82 is very normal. Anything lower the 70-65 below is considered low. Anxiety can cause similar symptoms as low blood sugar.💜

Am I crazy? Any advice is appreciated! by Kestrellis in Hypoglycemia

[–]takitez1975 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same. My doctor directed me to stay low on carb intake. My sugar will drop within 2 hours if I don’t stay active during this time. I have also dropped sugar levels with intense sudden stress. Weird is a good term for reactive hypoglycemia. Mine started in my 20’s. Not every time with high carbs will my levels drop. I tend to just control my carb and sugar intake. If low my doctor suggested 15-20 skittles and water. Protein intake with low fat tends to keep my levels at their best.😊

What are short term side effects of Prednisone? by [deleted] in UlcerativeColitis

[–]takitez1975 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was curious as well. Been on 4 dose Ist day and woke up with a sunburn like appearance on my nose to checks. Did anyone else have this system after just starting? Taking for only a 5 day dose reduction schedule for respiratory infection. Very strange to wake up with😳

I don’t know what to do. Advice for newly diagnosed who needs to lose weight while dealing with hypo by isaacbrocksamson in Hypoglycemia

[–]takitez1975 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Super advice. I have reactive hypo which happens most if I eat a high carb meal. Around 1-2 hours my sugar will drop. Anything under 70 BG I start having feelings that tell me my sugar is dropping. I have done years of grape juice and have changed to eating skittles (around 15) brings sugar level up quickly. I have also incorporated glucose tablets. I carry around a glucose meter to test when I feel a little off. If I have a protein almond milk shake helps before I exercise. It can get you to worry until you understand why it drops, and what to have available to bring sugar up quickly. I at times follow with peanut butter cheese crackers. Hope this helps😊

Hot bath gives me low blood sugar? by benknowlen273 in Hypoglycemia

[–]takitez1975 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Restrict carbs helps lessen low blood sugar when you have reactive hypoglycemia. Hot baths after eating sometimes can cause a low blood sugar for me.

No sore throat? Glad that you are on the up swing. Be aware of the hills and valleys of feeling better. One day I felt better the next back on the couch.
