Abdominal compression garments for men?

Does anyone know of compression clothing that works well for men? All the leggings, bodysuits, etc are for womens bodies. I was wondering even about mens dance leotards?

I have POTS and am female but my adult son sounds v POTS like but he also has GERD or something like I do (lucky him he got my genetics apparently) . I am finding shapewear body suits to be way more comfortable than high waisted leggings or wrapping a compression garment around my waist. Compression leggings and tights press too hard at the waistband and sometimes cause stomach aches for me.

He tried socks but they dont seem to do anything for him. He is also quite thin so not sure if that is part of why? He also might not have POTS but i felt that compression is a very low risk way to see if something can help with his symptoms.

Any men in here have compression experience? Ive seen shirts but are they enough? Thanks!

Do any dollar/discount stores sell trash cans in East Passyunk?

I just moved and need several household items, but the one that is annoying me most is trash cans. They are so expensive! I dont want to spend $17 for a plastic bathroom wastebasket. Does a $5 wastebasket exist?

I need 2 small ones and 1 kitchen sized.

Whats a cheap spot to get stuff like this? I need other things too like a toilet bowl scrubber. I would rather not get these secondhand for obvious reasons 😂

Thank you! 🙏

"cheesecake" mash?

I keep eating my creations and then realizing i should post, and its too late to take a photo.

But, ok, i got these cereal bars on sale. I mashed one up in a bowl with a big glob of cream cheese.

Your welcome.

Chocolate chunk waffles

All from Costco. Depending on how sweet you want it, put more or less of the brownie mix in. Dont worry about measuring exactly ! That takes more mental spoons lol. I dont have a picture of the waffles because i ate them so fast before i realized i should share haha.

Put like

1 cup ish Kodiak pancake mix
1/3 ish cup brownie mix
A dollop of oil (i used avocado oil)
An egg
Water

Make it look like the consistency of batter 😂 . I feel like you really cant go wrong? This made 3 waffles for me in that waffle iron.

Put butter and honey on the waffles

If you dont have an egg, it will probably still work. I have made the kodiak mix with no egg before. The oil makes the waffles a little crispier, but it probably works with just water too.

I have also full on put 100% brownie batter in the waffle iron without paying any mind to the actual directions and yes it does work too lol!!
