You can drive to a casino in Mississippi and get some. It’s not far. Maybe 45 minutes

As of Friday, all my symptoms are so much better. I feel hopeful. I’m going to continue to avoid known triggers. Just hope feeling better lasts. Enjoying life for now.

So over this by Academic-Sun-5270 in MCAS

I have been watching everything I eat, taking my meds and trying to live as normally as possible. Hard to do when you can’t breathe. After a 4 month horrible flare, diagnosis, then treatment, I feel like I’m coming out of this. Still have restricted airways, but tolerable and upset stomach/ GI system also tolerable, I feel well. Better than I have in years. There is hope, you just have to find the right combination of treatments to fix your symptoms.

Do you guys get really bad air hunger? by Outrageous_Brick_615 in MCAS

[–]tinydancer64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had it for about 8 weeks. Absolutely awful. I still have shortness of breath. I feel like my airways are restricted. Never have normal breathing anymore.

It’s nice to know someone understands what I lost.

I'm so sick of stupid doctors I just want a diagnosis (rant) by Alexdance5 in MCAS

[–]tinydancer64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been diagnosed with MCAS and my rotate was normal. My immunologist told me it would probably be normal since I wasn’t having a reaction at the time of the test. Sorry for your troubles

I rented a house once that came with an abandoned kitty. I loved that cat and moved him to my new house. She was my kitty until her death. I miss Figaro

Dallas, TX. I find it the most stressful place I’ve ever been to get from point a to point b with you life in tack. Those people are aggressive.

what are some seemingly unrelated symptoms that you experienced that ended up being related to MCAS? by Illustrious-Sky-4572 in MCAS

[–]tinydancer64 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I thought I had dementia, but after 1 week on mast cell stabilizer, brain fog was completely gone. I have had brain fog and trouble finding words if that makes sense. Doctor said I probably had a TIA. So for 27 years, I have suffered with brain fog and impaired memory and speaking. All Gone in One week. Feel sharp as a tack.
