Office life

Hello all, I’m undiagnosed yet even though I have been to countless doctors from different specialties and none of them have connected the dots. I have traveled to get treatment for these pains that I had ever since I was 2 years old, and the only reason I found out that I was hyper mobile was a couple of Instagram posts that described my exact symptoms: pain, restlessness, fatigue, elastic skin, flexible joints, etc.

Ten years ago I discovered leg compression wraps and I’ve been using (1) on my legs, feet, and hands as I needed. I didn’t t understand why it made me feel better so I mentioned it to the doctors I had visited but this was dismissed for some reason.

I’m now looking to make my office life easier, I bought leg compression sleeves and hand compression gloves but they help to a certain extent only and they once cause me knee pain after a full day of work. I have bought the only finger splints I found on Amazon to try them out but they don’t seem to help. So, I’m would like to know what you guys recommend for an office job, whether it’s compression accessories, splints, or pillows. And please excuse my ignorance, this is all new to me.

Dairy

I’m so tired of this, I wish I can have dairy without trouble. Everything that I try dairy-free is just boring and I can’t deny that it tastes off. I tried nut milks, all of them I even tried rice milk and some of those are good occasionally but not as decent to replace cow milk. I tried vegan cheeses that people highly recommend and they are either funky or tasteless or solid fats or somehow all of the above. The issue is sometimes my stomach agrees with dairy, real cheeses and even cow milk! But some other days it just ruins my day. I’m sincerely and genuinely sick of acting like I’m fine with not consuming dairy. Most of the days I starve myself to sleep myself because my options are either dairy or fruits and vegetables because this economy sucks for most people let alone a celiac.

Over The Moo

An online grocery had this ice cream tagged as gluten-free so I got excited and bought it since it’s lactose-free as well. Only after I received the order I was able to see the back of the bag and it’s a may contain situation. Is anyone familiar with the brand? Would you consume it either way knowing that it’s made in the UK?
