I can now do 10 reps of push ups easy... Sometime after several minutes of waking up.
... With 15 reps to make me feel like I'm giving more effort.

I started, like, less than a week ago.


Why?? I'm not sure.
In hopes of making my head less messy when standing up from the bed every morning.

I mean messy, I meant temporary dizziness, sort of temporary blindness and whatever involves the gravity and the blood -- just by trying to stand up.
I'm just too used to ignore it because I just thought it's normal. It's not. And I'm just sick of dealing with it every morning.

Do you have POTS like me? If I instantly stand without transitioning everything goes dark and I faint, and my heart rate spikes. Is this you too?

Using your muscles before sitting up fully or standing helps blood flow, preventing blood pooling in the limbs and a drop in blood pressure.

I do not know.
But most of the description and symptoms fits, just like many other overlapping possible conditions I've search about.

The only fact I know, I'm undiagnosed with a something. :?
Whatever it is, it already screwed my functioning for years now and it's not 100% always happening.

From where I came from, from where I stand and many other factors, I don't think I'd be correctly diagnosed or ever be treated formally.

It's unfortunate that you may not be able to get a proper diagnosis. If the overlapping conditions you mentioned include Ehlers-Danlos and mast cell disease, there are some things you can do on your own to help. Only two of my meds address 2 out of the 3 major diseases (POTS and mast cell) and in some ways being aware of the mechanisms has been just (maybe more) as helpful.

Ignore this if it isn't helpful but here are some things that can be done without medical intervention:

POTS:
- Compression stockings (waist high is best)
Increasing salt intake (provided you don't have high blood pressure)
- Getting plenty of potassium rich foods
- Elevating yourself in bed
- Rising slowly from bed
- Engaging your muscles (small movements like clenching your feet and hands muscles will do if muscle weakness makes other movements difficult)

Ehlers-Danlos:
- Physical therapy techniques geared towards EDS to build joint strength (the Muldowney protocol is specifically for EDS. There's a book you can buy that will show you the exercises).
- Recognition of hypertension and gradually correcting

Mast Cell:
- For some people, avoiding high histamine foods helps (didn't work for me but does for others)
- Avoiding quick changes in temperature or exposure to extreme temperatures
- Learning your triggers (fairly broad and they can change, but it's really helpful to know what causes a flare)

Gunnersaurus situation (so not serious obviously)...

Kingsley is an all powerful sun god superhero.

Why doesn't Kingsley save Gunnersaurus from being sacked?

Kingsley must hate the English more than he wants to stand in solidarity with fellow mascosts like Gunnersaurus.

Mean Kingsley :( Kingsley is a vengeful Sun God :twisted:

Hoopy would help if he could but all he can do is offer a few bones and ask Gunnersaurus if this means he'll be able to go for more walks now.

Broxi says 'coronavirus isn't real anyway but you're not getting any taxes out of me'.

Coyote says 'hahahahahaha giruy'. Mean Coyote :( To be expected I suppose :(

:lol:

A man was jailed and fined $1500 in Oregon for collecting rainwater because it is considered ‘property of the state'.

^ That's a pretty silly rule.



Our grocery store hasn't had vegetable bullion cubes in months and all of the vegetable broth containers are much to big (and more expensive) for the things we cook. It's very frustrating.

And whenever we go there they are always out of staple items that we need for cooking dinners. I emailed them about it but they never got back to me.

Interesting ideas.


Never heard of compression stockings before.
But there's gotta be a reason why I walk and twirl a lot and something still felt missing from all that moving.

Been elevating myself in bed for different reasons; I got chronic rhinitis, and been doing it for breathing issues.

Got no issues with joint strength, but mine sure pops a LOT. I've been known for it even.

My blood pressure's norm is a bit below the usual norm. It always been.
It's unknown if I'm also anemic, but I do have more signs and symptoms of it whenever the time of the month comes.

Histamine related issues may or may not related to my chronic rhinitis.
My triggers may even be more idiopathic than allergic. Or actually both.

Sometimes I can't exactly avoid the sudden changes in temperatures.
Yet I haven't noticed any issues about it. Maybe I've yet to notice or realize any subtle effects, maybe not.

^ Compression stockings are often associated with the elderly, but they make nice ones for all ages now.

If you're joint popping is accompanied by chronic joint paint, hypermobility, then it could be an indicator of Ehlers-Danlos. I know what you mean about joint strength: some of my joint muscles are too strong and as a result I'll inadvertently pop the joint out of place from just goofy around. So physical therapy isn't useful for these areas.

But I'm probably over helping at this point because I don't know all of your symptoms/history :lol: . Feel free to ask me additional questions about any of this or other disease stuff :).

If it comes to that point, I likely will. Thanks for the ideas.
