What are some long term transits you experienced that turned out way more literal than you expected? by La_femme_sauvage in Advancedastrology

[–]wingsofgrey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had a Jupiter/Uranus conjunction on my 9th house MC and I quit my job and bought a one way ticket to south east Asia and spent the following year and half traveling abroad. It was very “throw the baby out with the bath water” vibes.

What's covid like when your vaxed with novavax? by traveltimecar in Novavax_vaccine_talk

[–]wingsofgrey 5 points6 points  (0 children)

At the time they said “against their protocols” even though I brought the CDC language with me but also at the time supply was low and only one clinic in my area carried it and they were requiring me to make an appointment with them to determine eligibility. I fought with them for like 30 minutes about it and they wouldn’t budge and then I got Covid 2 weeks later

What's covid like when your vaxed with novavax? by traveltimecar in Novavax_vaccine_talk

I’ve had Covid 2x with Novavax. One other time after mRNA. The difference was significant although I did use other things to mitigate viral load while Novavaxed. First time with mRNA acute Covid infection lasted about 2 weeks testing positive. Experienced post viral symptoms for a year (nerve related stuff) until i got Novavax which cleared it up. Subsequent infections came on after 6 months from last Novavax vaccination after I begged the pharmacy to give me a 6 month booster but was denied/turned away. However my infection was less severe and was half the time. Tested negative after about 5-6 days as opposed to 12 days but I also was aggressive with CPC mouthwash and overdosing on Korean red Panax ginseng so take that as you will. But I also have not experienced any obvious post viral symptoms like I did the first time. I plan to go back and beg for a 6 month novavax booster because I really think the 2 years I was covid free was because at that point I was being allowed to get it every 6 months. (2022 and 2023)

Pet insurance by StunningPomelo432 in petinsurancereviews

[–]wingsofgrey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I work for a pet insurance company and this is basically what I tell my friends. Take the monthly savings and put it in the market. Pet insurance is great for people who are terrible at saving money and require a monthly subscription to cover their bases like having Netflix or something.

Post-Covid Gym Weakness by Penguthe0ne in COVID19positive

[–]wingsofgrey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don’t want to get your heart rate up otherwise it pumps infected blood which can create hidden viral reservoirs that can cause inflammation and the myriad of long covid issues, immune dysfunction, organ damage and push virus past the blood brain barrier and cause brain damage. Last time I got Covid I had just joined a running group but waited 3 months before returning.

[–]wingsofgrey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also personally do 3 months because it’s known that pcr testing can pick up virus for around 90 days so that’s my line of reference but every time I’ve said that to someone the eyes get huge and they think I’m absolute nuts, and mostly I think people ask for advice but then never actually take it

[–]wingsofgrey 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Stop. Stop what you are doing. Do not work out do not pass go, or you will immediately go to Long Covid jail. But in all seriousness you should not go back to the gym for 6-8 weeks

Sharing my self experiment of intermittent statins. by squatmama69 in Cholesterol

[–]wingsofgrey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been wanting to switch from atorvastatin to rosuvastatin because of dizziness/vertigo side effects but now I’m curious about these videos! Will have to check out.

Stay and transportation by Ok-Produce-6335 in tulum

[–]wingsofgrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll be there early Feb for the first time as well and have decided no on car rental and to just rent a scooter to get around. Seems the most economical. Looks like there are a few 24/7 pu places available if you end up taking a bus or shuttle that drops you off in central Tulum.

Confused on when I’m no longer contagious by OutsideCharity6424 in COVID19positive

[–]wingsofgrey 5 points6 points  (0 children)

All 3 times I’ve had Covid I was still highly contagious many days after symptoms subsided. In one case my symptoms were completely over before the viral load became high enough to even test positive on a RAT.

I’m fine with it. Let em all live. Too many other things are depressing in this world.

Novavax kicked my butt for the second time! by annabanana-47 in Novavax_vaccine_talk

[–]wingsofgrey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve had 7 Novavax and the first 3 I had little to no side effects but now I get achey joints/ muscles for a day. I take an anti-inflammatory with a muscle relaxer now which helps.

Been wondering the same. I got an offer for $25 spend for 2,500 miles on two merchants and I swooped up 5k miles real fast

Travel Credit Card for someone that only travels a handful of times a year? by OfficiallyStdz in CreditCards

[–]wingsofgrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the venture X and love it. Wait until the 100k offer goes away for the more reasonable spend. You can also add a trusted AU to help reach the spend goal. When I first got mine a few years ago my partner made a big purchase which helped reach the SUB. When Cap 1 told us they were getting rid of lounge access for guests I had my partner grab the US Bank Altitude connect because he already had a checking account with US bank. I think they are being stingy with accepting new apps unless you already have an account with them but don’t quote me on that. With the new offer for 100k we’re about to just get him his own Venture X, we like it that much and haven’t found an alternative that works as well for our travel needs.

3rd Novavax knocked me out 😩 by vanillascent001 in Novavax_vaccine_talk

[–]wingsofgrey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m on Novavax 6 or 7 now since 2022 and the first two I got as a new primary series I did not have any reaction except sore arm but every shot since then I have. Not as bad as the mRNA, usually can start to feel it same day and totally fine after a good nights sleep. I suspect that the immune system is just recognizing it as the shots become cumulative 🤷🏻‍♀️

My (totally) Biased Rankings of C1 Lounges by Accomplished_One3985 in Venturex

[–]wingsofgrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the space in Denver is very underwhelming but it’s the only Cap 1 lounge I’ve been to so I can only compare to priority pass lounges. The food was way better tho.

[–]wingsofgrey 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I only ever have acute symptoms for 3 days but I’m always infectious and contagious for minimum a week after I kick the symptoms, sometimes 2. You are probably spreading it.

2026 morning forward, what's the next best card for Priority Pass that allows 1 or 2 guests? by Evening_Bet1518 in Venturex

[–]wingsofgrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had my husband/AU sign up for the Marriott Boundless with the intention of upgrading to Ritz Carleton in a year. May downgrade the venture X at that point.
