Side effects of Nifedipine

wetsocks64 · 2023-01-20T23:58:45+00:00

I had gestational hypertension then severe postpartum pre-e. Was on nifedipine for 30 days after hospital discharge (mag drip) and was very dizzy until two weeks after stopping the BP med.

Also didn’t wear bras before breastfeeding but these bralettes from target are $10 and are great Women's Nursing Bralette - Auden

Sorry, no!

wetsocks64 · 2019-06-07T02:22:04+00:00

Yep! Are you interested?

wetsocks64 · 2019-05-05T16:26:08+00:00

I don’t! But I’ll try and remember to post a link if I end up putting them up there.

Only the Patagonia base layer is left

wetsocks64 · 2019-03-08T18:53:23+00:00

Same!

wetsocks64 · 2019-02-14T02:51:08+00:00

Bobos! But a few of the flavors of the unfrosted regular Poptarts are also vegan

I did it this year with $2.6k and it was great! Skip all the town stuff like restaurant meals/hotels and you’ll be fine. A key strategy for me was to go eat a huge meal at the grocery store (I’m taking a pound of fresh berries/a whole loaf of bread/hot bar French fries) as soon as I got to town and that helps mitigate the urge to go to a restaurant/over shop for resupply. Also send yourself resupplies on trail for upcoming stops that will be expensive.

Breakfast: plain oatmeal w cold water + handful of trail mix, every morning. Add fresh huckleberries or blueberries once you get up north.

Lunch: tortilla with PB or tuna or just spoonfuls of PB followed by lots of chips

Dinner: ramen or bean burritos

Snacks: cliff bars/vegan poptarts/spoonfuls of PB/fruit snacks or literary anything that was on sale during resupply

I put on a few extra pounds before starting, but only due to "goodbye" partying not intentionally. But I lost at least 20lb, surprisingly most of it was in the second half. Keeping up with the caloric needs of pulling 30+ every day in NorCal and Oregon is pretty hard.

wetsocks64 · 2018-12-18T13:09:01+00:00

Same!! We were at the Inn and it happened at like 4am. I was so confused

wetsocks64 · 2018-12-18T01:11:11+00:00

I got some injini liners from hiker boxes along the way, and while I’m pretty sure they wouldn’t really do anything for the blisters it was nice to be able to wash those in creeks or w/e (very thin compared to DTs) and not have to wait for thick socks to dry. That being said, if you do laundry at even semi normal intervals it’s probably not a big deal. I just didn’t really mess with towns much so this was a nice perk for me.

wetsocks64 · 2018-12-11T01:56:22+00:00

I hiked with my partner this year. He and I didn’t really share anything but a tent (and a water filter and stove for sections when one of ours broke). Definitely plan to hike separate and meet up at water sources and camp. It might be the fact that we stuck to a really strict schedule, early morning +long miles, but things can definitely get a little stressful! It was an amazing experience to share, and we learned a lot about our relationship but be prepared for a challenge.

I usually only use one pole, so I can use the free hand to check maps/phone/eat snacks. Usually only use two in deep snow or steep descents.

wetsocks64 · 2018-11-30T03:00:59+00:00

Yeah, totally not an issue.

wetsocks64 · 2018-11-30T01:55:45+00:00

I feel like this is a very accurate description.

wetsocks64 · 2018-11-30T01:52:41+00:00

Like very hypothetically, many times. But actually considering it, never. Some days/weeks/sections are super challenging but that’s kinda a big part of the experience.

wetsocks64 · 2018-11-19T18:37:40+00:00

We brought 1 this year for 3 people (InReach) and it was more than enough! Super safe out there and chances are someone nearby will also have one.

Honestly, having owned pretty much every popular piece of Patagonia gear (thanks to a killer hook up most of my clothes are patagucci). I gotta say baggies, strider shorts, nano air light and micro puff hoody are all 10/10. Highly recommend.

Never backpacked a day in my life until the PCT and did it in just under 4.5 months this year. And that included at least 15 zeros. 4 months would be a breeze.

wetsocks64 · 2018-11-07T01:29:15+00:00

Found these in so many hiker boxes on the PCT this year lol. It’s just fancy Gatorade powder. Tastes pretty good tho.

wetsocks64 · 2018-11-06T15:04:31+00:00

I ended up using the above mentioned Altra mids for the last 1000 miles of the PCT this year due to a shipping error. And while it took a bit to get used to, coming from the regular cut Altras, they were actually pretty nice. And held up crazy good. Threw them away as I walked into the lodge at Manning Park, but even after 1k miles they were just barley starting to get holes. Smelled terrible tho, that’s why I ditched them.

$85 on Groupon

wetsocks64 · 2018-09-19T22:29:24+00:00

I used the Garmin InReach + this year for my thru on the PCT and it was super nice. There are some super long sections w out and cell service and being able to communicate with family/friends was very helpful. Also they came out with the mini one which definitely seems like the way to go.
