Digestive issues ferrous fumarate

So I've started taking ferrous fumarate plus vitamin c for about a week. Like it! Feeling more energetic, some sleep improvement.

It's definitely known that constipation is a normal side effect, but I feel like I'm going all the time 🤦‍♀️. I've switched to every other day, because taking every day led to stomach pain and nausea.

Any tips? I do try to drink lots of water, and tried taking at night instead. Thanks!

Connectivity problems 2021

So I've seen plenty of talk that connectivity problems are a "known issue" with the Chevy trax. I'm getting a code: u1061, which they say is due to the computer sending improper signals to various parts.

I've called the dealer, and they say that it would be $189 per hour just to diagnose the car.

Does anyone have documentation of this being a chronic problem, or found a way to get this covered?

Thank you

2021, stabilitrak, brake sensor

Hello everyone!

I have a 2021 Chevy trax. The "service stabilitrak" light came in and off today. I had it read at AutoZone, they said it's the brake sensor light.

I will take it to my brake guy. Anyone else have this problem?

Wish I could thank Conan personally: "If I had legs..."

ETA: Thanks for the award!

I just finally watched his movie with Rose Byrne and sobbed through the whole thing. I'm brought to it because CONAF is my favorite podcast, but now feel seen as a single mother of a special needs child.

While I didn't make the same choices as Rose Byrne's character (substance abuse, leaving child alone, abortion,) most of the movie has been our life for seven years.

My daughter was placed on a feeding tube at seven months. The insertion of the tube was her screaming for over an hour because the doctors couldn't seem to handle doing it. Watching this scene ripped my heart out because I'd blocked it out completely.

Speaking of doctors, I'd fought with doctors every step of the way, and now she's fully recovered. Fought seven months for diagnosis. Fought and hopped on a plane for the correct cause of the diagnosis. Moved and continued to fight to solve the swallowing issue.

Dr. Spring and the conflict was accurate for what parents go through. "It's not our fault, but she failed, because you set us up to fail." I've had my motherhood, sanity, intelligence, and moral code attacked by physicians who couldn't admit their own flaws. And multiple times: I was correct.

The whirlwind of external events: also frighteningly close to home. We had a ceiling fall in when my daughter was 13 months old. We struggled after moving to be closer to her specialists. The cost of medical care, medical travel, and medical moving cleaned out my bank account.

And yet, here we are today, she ran races just today at the park and is reading chapter books in first grade, alongside her large group of friends.

Conan and all the creators: Thank you for illustrating what is the reality of many parents. You've got real compassion.
