Robot Diver<p>My partner is having a mini-vacation this week. She does a lot for me because of the ME. I'm not high spoons today but I wanted to make her a nice vacation breakfast. This is my solution. It's scalable for more than two people as well.</p><p>Heat your oven to 375F. Line a cookie sheet with foil. Leaving space in the middle for potatoes, place breakfast sausage around the edge of the sheet. </p><p>Place some diced potatoes in the centre of the sheet or use some mini potatoes to save spoons. (If they seem a little big to cook in 25 mins, pop them in the microwave for about 5 minutes before adding them to the tray.</p><p>Drizzle everything with a little oil and toss the potatoes with some granulated garlic, salt, pepper or any other spicing you might desire. </p><p>Bake for 25-30mins or until sausage is cooked through and potato is soft. Stir everything halfway through. (This will depend a lot on your oven, mine has a fan, so it may take slightly longer if you don't.)</p><p>You could definitely use vegetarian/vegan sausage for this but I would wait to add it to the edges after the tray has been in the oven for about 10 minutes, as most won't require as long a bake time as the potatoes, but you can check your package directions.</p><p>If you have an extra spoon you can also add some diced onion or peppers. </p><p>Serve with some eggs or straight up. </p><p><a href="https://starlite.rodeo/tags/ouchThatsTasty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ouchThatsTasty</span></a> <a href="https://starlite.rodeo/tags/lowSpoonRecipes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lowSpoonRecipes</span></a> <br><a href="https://starlite.rodeo/tags/mecfs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mecfs</span></a> <a href="https://starlite.rodeo/tags/longCovid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>longCovid</span></a> <a href="https://starlite.rodeo/tags/breakfast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>breakfast</span></a></p>
eMili<p>One frustrating thing about ME/CFS/MCAS is that you never know exactly where some symptoms might come from. Was it meeting many people at once? Was it the food being in the fridge instead of a freezer (hence higher amounts of histamin), or a specific ingredient? Was it because some strong emotion, is it from spring allergies, is it because my histamin levels are currently higher because I did some thing wrong yesterday? Or is it something I did today? </p><p>It kind of feels like trying to stay cool playing a poorly designed puzzlegame while having been forced into an All-In in the poker game of being financially self sufficient, where you have to solve the puzzle to even look at your cards. Naturally your health care provider can walk up any moment to tell you they hid some of the puzzle pieces somewhere. </p><p><a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/mecfs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mecfs</span></a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/mcas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mcas</span></a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/chronicillness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>chronicillness</span></a></p>

It has a 55 hour half life so it may be sadating the next day too.”</p><p>So I was scared. I cut the sleep pill in half. I put a barricade at the end of my hallway so I wouldn’t go down the stairs in my sleep because it warns of sleep eating like people do on Ambien.</p><p>I asked my neighbor if she could please call me when she wakes up if she doesn’t hear any signs of life from me over here and if I don’t answer the phone to please call the landlord so they can tell my emergency contact I’m probably not OK.</p><p>I even picked up my room a little extra before bed just in case paramedics had to come in here to drag my body out.</p><p>SO MUCH DRAMA FOR A MEDICATION THAT ROCKED ME FOR 15 MINUTES.</p><p>It was the weirdest thing, about a half hour after I took it I was like oh wow I get why she warned me I am high as hell.

ContraindiKate<p>I'm looking for over-ear passive hearing protection that I can wear in bed. Not earplugs. Something without active noise cancellation, as this makes my tinnitus worse. I've been wearing a giant pair of Mouldex ear muffs which do a great job cutting the noise, but are not so ideal when it comes to comfort. I'm a side sleeper, so something with a slim profile is preferred. <br>Suggestions?</p><p><a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/MEcfs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MEcfs</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/HearingProtection" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HearingProtection</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/bedbound" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bedbound</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/tinnitus" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tinnitus</span></a></p>
ContraindiKate<p>Ich bin wieder auf der Suche nach passiver Gehörschutz, den ich im Bett tragen kann. Brauche etwas über meine Ohren, ohne aktives Geräuschunterdrückung (weil sie mein Tinnitus noch schlimmer macht). Bin Seitenschläfer, also je schlanker desto besser. <br>Empfehlungen? </p><p><a href="https://wien.rocks/tags/MEcfs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MEcfs</span></a> <a href="https://wien.rocks/tags/bettlaegerig" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bettlaegerig</span></a> <a href="https://wien.rocks/tags/gehoerschutz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gehoerschutz</span></a> <a href="https://wien.rocks/tags/Schlafen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Schlafen</span></a> <a href="https://wien.rocks/tags/tinnitus" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tinnitus</span></a></p>
