Hello everyone, I would like to potentially make hats for people and need to start now. I know where to donate to clothes, but like….I feel like they’re gonna end up on the shelves of a thrift for 4$. So would any local organization actually benefit from homemade crochet hats? Prefer to make baby hats but could possobly make some adult. No I do not want to sell. Thanks in advance!!

Been talking to some of my doctors about my dizziness, yes it’s random and not often… but finally it was enough to where I almost fell.

I have ADHD and before I get the new stimulant script, my doc requests an EKG. I’m happy to finally explore this idea. I want answers.

So friends. How do I make this the most successful? Take my stimulant before it? Drink a lot of water? Have coffee? No coffee?

My baseline pressure is 90-118/65-80 so it is always low. My pulse is 60-80ish normally and I take concerta 27mg.

Thanks 🙏💖

Hear me out, please. I feel like I’m going crazy. Recently I’ve had two pretty severe allergic reactions that started with oral sensations. One was crab, another was a strawberry fizzy (san pelligrino) drink. Took benedryl, went down but in the meantime mouth sensations like numbness/burning. Heart palpitations and major anxiety. Yes it could be that I developed a crab allergy, and whatever is in the drink….but my history and symptoms make me feel like its MCAS.

History

- I have dermatographia
- my skin reacts to sweat, temps, or textures
- I get itchy when I’m anxious/stressed
- I’m ADHD possible POTS
- Hypermobile
- Migraine history with scent/stress/hormone/pressure triggers
- born with slight red hair and mom is redhead (anesthesia doesnt work for her)

Had many strange reactions to meds/things/foods

- Fake jewlery
- Any cardboard
- strong chemicals
- Tight or rough clothing
- Delsym cough syrup
- Sulfa drugs (I worked in packaging did not take)
- Citric Acid (went away/came back?)
- Red dye #5 (severe anxiety, stomach upset, rash, went away?)
- crab - had it in my 20s and had the same reaction, but could continue eating shellfish
- some meds dont do anything (bupropion, celebrex) and some I have opposite reactions (muscle relaxors make me loopy but in an energetic way)

Just overall sensitive to random stuff. Is this something worth talking to my doctor about? I dont want to come off attention seeking/googling my symptoms. I set up an allergy apt and my pcp follow up.
