Ive had this condition my whole life and outside of being annoying it's never been an issue. I get bloodwork done every three months and it's never been brought up. I also get my blood pressure taken and its never come up. Ive asked doctors about it because my fainting spells were freaking my wife out, and they said it wasnt a huge deal.

They have regular buns, pretzel buns, and, recently, garlic knot buns. The pretzel buns appeal to someone I'm sure and I think I don't need to explain why the garlic knot buns are better.

Hmm I got lost partway through your comment but it felt positive haha thank you!

yes.. that is a good observation.. i only tell my mother things i want my siblings to know. she's not a bad person just not great at keeping secrets

yes.. reverse sexism is real lol.. don't believe the hype but also don't fall for the easy traps laid to snare the mouse ;-)

You need a wake up song. Not a wake up alarm song. But maybe a song a you listen to when you eat breakfast.

indeed. business is business. think of it as crew... it works for me

blimey.. come back swinging.. always.. metaphorically of course it works. don't get involved in gossip, as said above, let your results tell the story and only tell the best stories.. another one of mine is when i made a croche pillow for my mum when was 8-) then another day i'll tell the counter story that she left me when i was 4. so people understand i can do good things even if i've been mistreated.. some people laugh but i know it's because they're weak and strong people get it. good luck

If a light-headed person goes to squat down they might fall over, especially an older person. I have orthostatic hypertension and I just have to get up slowly and wait 2 seconds before I start walking to make sure I'm okay. No big deal.

lol

fair play.. although can you come right back and call them a hole too? works for me ;-)

i tell co workers i trust the good but 'real' stories about me.. usually with a comic or positive spin.. you know like when i got smashed at Ministry of Sound when it first opened in 1991.. i know everyone gossips so tell them the stories that make 'legends'.. sounds manipulative i know but my opinion is getting on at work is about positive engineering.. that's always better than negative engineering

Its not an opinion.

Wendy's is NOT food.

but I like the free buzz

I am a fan of;

Your cologne should say "I have arrived" not "I'll be there in 10 minutes"

I use Grammerly. I've become such a better writer in one year just from using it. Never thought I'd be a wordsmith. I use it for work so I had it reimbursed :).

Extra LPT: Don't try to wait it out standing up. When I was young I passed out from one of these and bashed my head pretty fucking bad on the way down.

To stop them, it is better to just sit back down. If you can't sit then yeah just partially squat and bend over resting your arms on your legs with your head lowered.

Had it since I was a teenager, not really sure if it's anything, just lightheaded if I get up sometimes.

I worked with a woman named Kirby. We used to say, tell-a-phone, tell-a-gram, tell-a-kirby. Lol

It's not a blood oxygenation problem. My O2 saturation is usually 98 percent.

There's an autonomic response to standing which can be defective in some people. When someone with that problem stands, the blood pressure in their skull rapidly declines. When the blood pressure in the skull is too low, O2 can't exchange with CO2.

It isn't. I was going to report it, but couldn't find a rule it violated. Enough people either have Orthostatic Hypotension or POTS I knew the negative comments would handle it.

I have it. It's not always a condition which requires a cardiologist. I also have Athletic Bradycardia when I'm in shape and that's a bad combination of things to have.
