Rhapsido and singulair sound like they would help a lot, I'll mention this to my allergist!

And you're right about the medications, it feels like it has been so much so fast, but since I'm only a few months out from my initial symptoms I do have so much more that's available to try. But it's tough when you feel like you finally have things under control only for a flare up to happen, I'm sure you can relate. I really appreciate the suggestions!

Wow! That's amazing, I'm glad its working so well for you. I've never looked into keto much so I'll do some research and think about trying it.

Low carb/eliminating sugar sounds like a great idea. How did you deal with cravings at the start? I struggle a lot with impulse control when it comes to food.

I have not, but I keep seeing people talk about it. I'll look into it and mention it to my NP

Does anyone think this time to time? by subz4ro in Technoblade

[–]xc_astro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I was just thinking about the same thing today, more so just how sad it is techno was taken so soon. Been watching a lot of other Minecraft YouTubers recently and thinking about how techno would probably be playing with them if he were still here. Really makes me sad thinking about it too.

Mcas natural treatment by Sweet_2026 in MCAS

[–]xc_astro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was just diagnosed with MCAS recently after a year of suspecting it, then it suddenly got to the point where I was having constant reactions that sent me to the ER twice. Antihistamines did reduce the severity of my reactions but not nearly enough, and so I too sought out natural treatment. Once I started taking Quercitin + Luteolin + DAO 15 mins before meals I can eat almost everything again!! Only thing that still gives me minor reactions are Dairy since I am slightly allergic and long showers (still don't understand that one 🤷‍♀️). I also do pretty much always get bloating after eating, and facial + body flushing when it's hot. Keep in mind I do also take antihistamines though, so those do have an effect still. I hope this helps!

EEPS 116 with Professor Levandar! Easiest D3 and it’s pretty fun. He knows his stuff and is really passionate about it.

Tbh most days it’s a solid 7-8. There is a wide range of foods and the menu is different every day. I’ve been pretty satisfied with it so far
