What carriers will work with MP2?
I can't find any info on this on the website.

I have a black tie wedding in NYC in December. I don't have the budget for an expensive gown so am looking for something secondhand. Is a chiffon gown formal enough? Pic is of something similar to what I'm looking at on a secondhand site.
Feel free to drop any <$150 gown recs, too...
I remember seeing a product recommended on this sub months ago and everyone was agreeing saying it was the best for thickness, volume, hair growth etc. I think maybe it was a Pantene shampoo but can't remember for sure. Does anyone know what this might have been? If not, what do you suggest?
I just got back from a three-week trip abroad using the Travel Buggy GT. This is a newer chair from them and I didn't see many reviews before I made the purchase, so I thought this might be helpful for others.
Disclaimer: this is my first chair as an ambulatory user, so I don't have experience with other chairs for comparison.
Pros:
* Very convenient for travel. It folds really easily, and you can use the foot rest handle to drag it around behind you folded.
* Comfortable to sit in. The seat cushion is pretty thick and the backrest feels nice enough.
* Handles different terrain pretty well. I used it in Europe and it handled the cobblestone streets fine. Not the smoothest over big bumps, but that's to be expected from this type of chair. It also did fine on grass and dirt/loose gravel.
* Drove smoothly and was quiet.
Cons:
* I have really long legs and it might be nice to have a foot rest extender to stretch out more. Luckily, I have leg mobility so I could just take my legs off of the rest and stretch them, but others might not have that ability.
* Going downhill (particularly on uneven ground) proved to be difficult. I think this might be the case for any wheelchair, but I would lose control and start going off to one side if the pavement wasn't level/smooth.To help with this, I had my boyfriend put the chair into manual push mode during tough downhill sections.
* No handles on the back. During the times that my boyfriend would push me, he said it would have been much easier if there had been handles to hold onto instead of just the seat back itself.
Overall, I'm really happy with the chair. Travel Buggy customer service has also been excellent. Let me know what questions you have and I'm happy to answer!

**I am specifically looking for data about those who have recovered. Please do not comment "I have not recovered"—I know many people have not.**

In addition to the poll, did anyone else similarly get worse before they got better? I have had a lot of ups and downs and hit my lowest point about one year in. I seem to be making some improvements now at about 16 months but have a long way to go.

I flew in for the concert tonight like many others and highly doubt I'll be able to attend the rescheduled date. That said, does anyone have an educated guess on when she might fit those shows into her already busy schedule?
About 16 months into this—potentially long Covid. I had a big setback in March, but I've had some improvements over the last couple of weeks despite (or maybe because of?) an increase in activity. My heart rate has been lower (I've been using fewer pace points), and I'm noticing less muscle pain, nausea, general malaise, etc. However, while other symptoms are seemingly improving, I've noticed that I've been more groggy/sleepy in the morning and throughout the day. Has anyone else heard of this or experienced it themselves? Being more tired while recovering overall?
First time on a boat like this. I do have a tendency to get motion sick, and I had a horrible experience whale watching on the Pacific. I know the Mediterranean is calmer than the Pacific, but how concerned should I be about being sick the whole time? Any suggestions other than taking Dramamine?

I know what PEM is and I have experienced it a couple of times in my year-long illness period. But I also experience just general malaise or an unwell feeling. It's hard to explain, but my body just feels off? The feeling will come and go and is worse some days than others. Is this common? I usually only see "malaise" mentioned in reference to PEM, but I feel like there have to be others out there who get general malaise, too!
I developed chronic symptoms after having E. Coli last April (2025) and have gotten worse in the last couple of months. I thought the E. Coli was the source of my issues (now highly likely me/cfs), but I remembered recently that in December of 2024 I had a mild illness that could have been COVID. I had one negative test and one very faintly positive test. I also remember that in February of '25 I noticed being slightly more tired than usual and was getting a higher heart rate and some dizziness. I thought I was just deficient in something and chalked it up to Vitamin D. Is it possible that I've had long COVID this whole time and that the E. Coli infection just exacerbated things?
If so, do I have a better chance of improving if I have long COVID me/cfs than regular old me/CFS? It has now been a year since my main symptoms began. What has helped y'all make improvements (if anything)? I'm currently trialling LDN, but there are so many other treatments out there and things to try.
I appreciate any insight/advice!
Thank you.
Made my take on u/mollztothewalls dill pickle tofu. I should have let the tofu marinate longer, but it was still delicious! Paired with some oven-baked fries.
I have two tickets for this date in section 107 but have recently become disabled and need a wheelchair accessible seat. I know it's a long shot, but maybe someone got one of these seats by mistake and is willing to trade? There aren't any left on Ticketmaster (except for an obstructed view where I wouldn't even be able to see the big screens). I've also reached out to Kaseya Center but haven't heard back. I will be devastated if I can't see Rosi :(
I have recently become disabled and will be depending on a wheelchair for anything that requires extended walking or standing. I bought concert tickets before I became disabled to this extent, so they are not wheelchair-accessible seats. I reached out to Ticketmaster to exchange my tickets, but there aren't any accessible seats available (except for obstructed view on the side of the stage). Does anyone have advice on what to do? Would the venue itself have additional accessibility seating? Are there any laws that protect me in this situation?
I would be heartbroken to not attend this concert, but having an almost completely obstructed view doesn't sit right with me, either. I appreciate any suggestions!
