Good luck!

Ah, so they’re taking a bit of a shot while you wait to get imaging and other tests done then. If you need to be on it long term, I would ask to switch to Pregabalin to see if it helps with what you’re experiencing. Until then, please hang in there.

I’m sorry. Do you know what’s causing it? Gabapentin/Pregabalin will work well if you have herniated disks, but the side effects can be significant, especially with Gabapentin.

Ugh. Gabapentin sent me into a terrible brain fog, so I know where you are now. Pregabalin is a more refined version that for me has far fewer side effects and allowed me to function. The downside is it’s controlled and doctors can be weird about prescribing it.

Oof. I’m sorry. Republicans are bent on being ghouls right now. Does your state have any options you can look at?
I guess your best option given this is to see if your current specialist can adjust your prescription. You definitely shouldn’t be feeling the way you do.

Yeah…the whole point of a cpap is so that you can breathe AND sleep. That statement makes me question her qualifications. Can you find a different sleep specialist? The settings on the machine are a prescription that needs to be monitored (based on data from the machine) and adjusted over time.

I have a cpap and have never had it pop my ears. The pressure in yours may be too high. Have you discussed this with your sleep specialist?

Oooh! Love the furred version!

That’s looking awesome so far! Glad it’s something you’re into. I always worry as I know many artists aren’t into baboons/monkeys. I’ve found a good number on BlueSky though which makes me happy.

If you’re someone who would like consistency of your character’s design across the art you commission, it would be a good idea to invest in a good flat-color reference.

I’m not a professional artist, but I have worked with several over the past few years and learned some things. Salt mentioned a lot of what I was going to say, but a lot depends on what you desire to get out of it.

I feel you here. I would just love to exist and love the things I love without the gender stereotypes needlessly attached.

Awesome! Email incoming.

I’d love one please!

Hello! I’d love to get a gnarly-looking one based on a baboon or gelada if you still have a spot available. I can provide pictures for inspiration if desired.
