Since I own stock in Ford I've watched a lot of interviews with Jimmy Car Car (his nickname). I like him a lot.
My acid reflux was supposed to be under control with the medication, and I have no idea what I ate that could have caused this. I did have a tomato salad for dinner but I usually tolerate tomato well. Just hope I will sleep better tonight.
Mine is often triggered by sweet stuff despite prescription meds to control it (it aggravates my asthma). Provided it isn't within a couple of hours of taking your daily (?) meds, you can still take antacids to deal with flare ups. But obviously only here or there, not frequently and as always follow the directions on both containers/speak to your doctor or pharmacist. (My containers indicate that they shouldn't be taken at the same time of day, so taking during the night (antacid) and then taking my meds in the morning is fine. )Another difficult night. This time I fell asleep alright but woke up at 1AM feeling like my stomach was burning
I happen to have an appointment with my stomach doctor this friday and I will ask her what can I do. It may be that I was just hungry (although it's unusual for me to wake up hungry in the middle of the night, and certainly not feeling like my stomach is burning). I ate some cereal, took the natural supplement I take when I get stomach sick, and that fixed it.
If I had to hazard a guess, I’d say goosebumps/goose pimples (whatever they’re called in your area).
Yup. Erector pili is my guess (AKA goosebumps).
It’s a shame people are so alarmist that way. I know I’ve been out and about, have had a drink of water go down the wrong way, cough three or four times to clear it, and then get looks like I’m Typhoid Tasty.Just a little vent. I got a great combo going on here with the two current pandemics
Yeah I understand that there's reason for concern, but at the same time there are so many disorders and illnesses that can cause all this. And not all of them are contagious. My skin disorder raised questions in people sometimes too in the past, but I've noticed an uptick the past months and now have even healthcare professionals ask me 'what is that??' (yes, even a doctor) before proceding to examine me.
I've had to do that since day 1.
Yeah, I do both. I sanitize every chance I get and wash my hands every chance I get. I actually wish they had handwashing stations in stores and restaurants for customers to use elsewhere besides the restroom (I hate public restrooms). And I was a big advocate of handwashing well before the pandemic, as a retired massage therapist and previous restaurant experience.
I've been coughing all year , because they thought I had asthma when it actually were small PE's. The asthma was misdiagnosed. I just cough infrequently enough to not need a certificate, and the asthma meds did a good job in repressing it too. I turn out to make PE's frequently due to colitis, just usually my body also removes them. But due to being undermedicated, I eventually ended up in the ICU again. But here so far, nobody noticed me enough. But right now they are starting to respond to my scars.
and how annoying the hand sanitizer thing must be right now! You walk in to it anywhere..
