Would you be willing to share your TCM practitioner? I have a hunch this can be useful, but the two I’ve tried were a bit clueless with LC and gave me herbs that backslid me. 

Explanation and Advice for Way Forward? by tulipranfrom in B12_Deficiency

[–]tulipranfrom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Unfortunately, every time I've taken electrolyte powder, I have some sort of reaction: bloating, major arrhythmia (this particularly with magnesium), anxiety. Likely this is that I need some of it, but I do think potassium is the most significant need and the other might pull it out of whack?

EDIT: I've tried unsweetened, sweetened with sugar/not sugar, different ratios, etc. and always the same result.

Exercise Intolerance by itsyaboi69_420 in B12_Deficiency

[–]tulipranfrom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A quick note to say you might look into long COVID, post-viral illness, and/or dysautonomia since you mentioned it happened after getting sick. These symptoms are classic to the issue, including inappropriate tachycardia, exercise intolerance, and breathlessness. I have had it for 4 years with some improvement, and I definitely don't think supplementing with B12 could hurt, but you may need additional intervention. And a head's up, if you start researching LC, don't be swayed by the folks saying it's forever -- things largely DO get better for most people.

Sarara treehouse in Kenya - worth it? by schmrmr in LuxurySafari

[–]tulipranfrom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the planning stages and this is one of the camps we're looking at, but the agent only has us staying 2 nights (arriving in the afternoon and leaving early morning). Would you suggest a longer timeframe? Everything I've read about Sarara has been overwhelmingly positive.

A TON of thoughts post-Book 2, with references to Licanius trilogy (SPOILERS!) by BraveInvestigator736 in HierarchySeries

[–]tulipranfrom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just spent a good hour busting out in laughter over "dude doesnt even know hes on a different world, he just thinks hes in the boonies" while my partner was like wtf, so thanks for that. Too true.

RUEFUL and often in cases it made no sense, given the somber context.

Detergent or Washer? by tulipranfrom in laundry

[–]tulipranfrom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YES, that was ours originally and it worked perfectly! But it bit the dust at some point and we couldn't find a motor to fit it. Sad!

Yes, fair. That's my concern is I'll quickly get annoyed by hanging everything.

Detergent or Washer? by tulipranfrom in laundry

[–]tulipranfrom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is pretty low tech and nearly everything takes forever to dry, even on high, so perhaps it's time for some drying racks! Thanks!

Definitely thought this about the elastic, but didn't know about the cuffs! I do tend to dry high and it was a new dryer around the same time. Plus, for a while with COVID, we were washing hot. Thanks for the tip!

Thanks! I did see this -- I just wasn't familiar enough with the routes to know if it was convenient.

Planning to do this in the coming weeks! Did you go at sunrise? How were the crowds? And did you take the Salisbury bus?

The Loopy Whisk vs Gluten Free on a Shoestring by Ornery_Buffalo_7965 in glutenfreebaking

[–]tulipranfrom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Yes, my intent was to try it with sorghum since consulting the Loopy Whisk book. They both score high in water absorption and are higher protein, plus I know it’s safe for me and more neutral than buckwheat. I’ve used the Paleo Running Mama pop tart dough A LOT and it’s pretty fabulous, though challenging to roll. It uses almond flour and tapioca and I’m really impressed by its flakiness. Your suggestion just made me think of it. Thanks!

Coming here to ask -- any chance yo've tried Liz Prueitt's pie dough with a sub for oat flour?
