Covid and Cpap
Re: Covid and Cpap
Our doctors' office had many patients originally put on capsaicin for pain, but who could not tolerate the effects of it and so stopped using it.

It's not a problem at all for non-men to mansplain, non-men do it *all the time*.latskogkatt wrote: ↑Thu Aug 25, 2022 7:04 amKinda hard for someone who isn't a man to mansplain things.
It's just only a problem when men do it.

I got your point Katt. Great suggestions!latskogkatt wrote: ↑Thu Aug 25, 2022 7:17 amEven skipping the cayenne, the honey and lemon juice mixture works really nicely. (Obviously only if you're not allergic to either honey or lemons, of course.)chunkyfrog wrote: ↑Thu Aug 25, 2022 5:36 amNot everyone can take capsaicin externally.
After the sting, the itching is so bad, I have to wash it off.
Knowing that, I limit internal use to light culinary application,
or skip it entirely. The bullfrog claims he's allergic.
I would leave the cayenne out as well.

Beware the schoolyard bullies, mean girls, and fragile male egos. Move along if you can’t be kind.
Re: Covid and Cpap
I tried lowering my starting pressure the past two nights. Wednesday night, I lasted about 3 hours and started coughing so bad I gave up, but last night, I was finally able to go back to my Bleep mask and made it through the whole night with minimal coughing! And an AHI of 1.03. Also, finally fever-free since yesterday, so I am feeling MUCH better, although still tire easily. Thank you for the suggestion!

Or you could just take what I said as it was intended. That is, as trying to be helpful while accounting for not everyone having the same vocabulary, particularly since we have at least one person just in the past week whose native language isn't English, and who indicated that they have trouble with English sometimes.Iamstumped wrote: ↑Fri Aug 26, 2022 2:31 pmLets call it what it is "womensplaining"Dog Slobber wrote: ↑Thu Aug 25, 2022 9:04 amIt's not a problem at all for non-men to mansplain, non-men do it *all the time*.latskogkatt wrote: ↑Thu Aug 25, 2022 7:04 amKinda hard for someone who isn't a man to mansplain things.
