Can toprol cause sleeplessness

(Concepts) What style would you choose to be added?

2024.05.19 05:29 GameWriter40981 (Concepts) What style would you choose to be added?

Between all of these styles, which one would you like to see or would most likely use? Descriptions for what I think the styles could be like are below. Critique and commentary welcome. (yes, some of them may be op/far fetched, but it's for fun.)
(Legendary)
Nekota: Your overwhelming speed and sharp instincts make you an excellent fighter capable of taking down even the strongest opponents. However, accumulated damage causes you to lose control of your body and your senses. (Gimmick: At max health, you have the some of the fastest dodges in the game, and fast start-up. At 50% or lower, dodges become only slightly above average, and attack speed reduces by a bit. At 20% or lower, your dashes become slow and your start-up speed reduces greatly, roughly to the same level as corkscrew. Buffs return if you regen your health.)
Ultimate[Hope of the People]: Dodge multiple of your opponent's punches, then close in and hit them repeatedly once they're tired and vulnerable before dealing a finishing blow.
Nekota's damage is average, if not, slightly lower. He does a bit of extra counter damage. Nekota's damage would remain the same no matter the state he's in. No major weaknesses other than a below average guard and his debuffs when his health gets low.
Titles: [AgilešŸ’Ø], [FaithfulšŸ’«], [Burning CandlešŸ•Æļø]
(Legendary)
Anderson: You will win by any means necessary. Naturally strong attacks, including a powerful heavy called the Artillery Strike, and a special last resort for when the occasion arises. Rabbit Punch: A cheating punch that can hit opponents during a perfect dodge. (The Rabbit Punch can be triggered when the enemy perfect dodges. The hit itself won't do much damage at all, but will cancel an opponent's dodge and also stun them like the Ghost Jab. Cooldown is quite long and doesn't go down by itself, similar to Ghost or Ippo.)
Ultimate[Dirty Tactics]: Throw a punch that gets dodged by the opponent, before Rabbit Punching them and dealing a brutal barrage, finishing off with a full power Artillery Strike/Chopping Right.
Anderson would have high damage but would also take high counter damage, almost like shotgun. Start-up, dashes, and movement would be below average, but would also have a fairly strong block. Rabbit Punch cannot knock down opponents even if they're at 1% percent, nor is it guaranteed to set up an m1/m2 if it connects(potentially if ping is good enough).
Titles: [SergeantšŸŖ–], [War Hero šŸ‡ŗšŸ‡ø], [Dishonorable šŸŽ­]
(Mythic)
Switch-Hit(Randy Boy Jr.): An unpredictable and versatile fighter that embodies multiple boxers in one body. Ability: You can switch between three stances to change the trajectory and properties of your punches. Punch highlights are dimmed heavily. (Switching stances will have no cooldown like Freedom. There is no practical difference between left and right other than the direction of the punches. Middle stance will, however, have stronger attacks at the cost of slower start-up than left or right stance. You can also cancel a heavy by swapping stances in the middle of it, similar to a feint.)
Ultimate[Asura]: You will take the form of Asura and look like you have multiple arms as your opponent gets hit by various punches from all sides, before reverting to normal and lunging in to hit a finishing blow.
Well-rounded stats. No major weaknesses, but being in the left or right stances reduces damage and guard sturdiness.
Titles: [UnpredictablešŸ”®], [Switch-HitteršŸ‘„], [Asuraā˜Æļø]
(Legendary)
Vagabond(Joe Yabuki): Your punches are just as strong as your fighting spirit. Your cross-counters deal extreme damage, but your defense is equally as weak. Ability: You can assume the No-Guard Stance, disabling your block but unlocking new fighting capabilities. (Can switch between Base and No-Guard freely. When in No-Guard, movement and dodge speed is increased, but you take immensely increased counter damage, comparable to shotgun's. Additionally, you cannot block, like Focused Chronos. Your m2s can no longer be interrupted from being hit by m1s, and will fire regardless, unless hit by an ult or style ability. All dashes, except forward dashes, now keep you in place thanks to the usage of Konnyaku Tactics; similar to Hawk's swayback, though the dodge margin is smaller than Hawk's.)
Ultimate[For Tomorrow]: You drop your arms, baiting your opponent into throwing their strongest punch. The background will darken and both fighters will go in slow-mo, before you unleash a devastating cross-counter.
Base form does good damage with slightly below average start-up, like Ippo. Guard is quite weak, like Ghost's. M2 counters do damage on par or even slightly more than bullet. Regen is also a bit faster in base, like corkscrew. Dodges are average. Switching to No Guard doesn't change damage or start-up speed, but health regen goes slower while in No-Guard.
Titles: [DrifteršŸ§£], [No GuardšŸš«], [Pure White Ashā™Øļø]

2024.05.19 05:26 Artrock80 Anyone had chest pain after using Monoxidil for an extended period?

I saw an ad for a competing product that claimed Monoxidil can potentially cause heart issues, and apparently there's some merit to that statement. I've just been using the topical, over the counter version for close to 2 years now, (sometimes I feel like it's worked, other times I'm not so sure). But I've noticed weird chest pressure periodically, that I usually attributed to muscle soreness from working out or heartburn/acid reflux. I've decided to stop using it for now to be safe. Anyone else have an experience like that, or had a doctor recommend against using it?

2024.05.19 05:26 Illustrious-Leg9144 CAMP structures got deleted??

So, this has been going on for quite a while, and Iā€™m sick of it. I farm screws and aluminum to build stuff such as generators, I come back it just gets deleted??? Sometimes itā€™ll say like ā€œcouldnā€™t load campā€ cause someone was in my spot but sometimes it will just delete stuff. I canā€™t use my build half the time because I simply canā€™t power my armor consistently because of it

2024.05.19 05:26 thiago_hmx G Hub causing mouse lag with G502 Hero KDA in some games.

Since the past 3 months i have noticed some weirdness happening when i was playing Overwatch 2, my aim randomly stops responding for a brief second and suddenly all movements that i did when it freezed are put into the game, causing the aim go crazy and i cant control anymore, also, when this happen, the RGB keeps stuck in one color.
Until last week this problem was very rare, and most of the time only occurs for 1 time per day at maximum, some days doesn't happen at all, but from last week to today it became much more commom, happening many times in just one match, becoming unplayable, at first, i think maybe was my graphics driver, since i updated the driver last week, i tried to reverse the driver, unnistall the current driver with DDU, install the previous one, but the problem persists, then, i tried change some game configurations, disable Radeon Anti Lag, cap my FPS to 144, turn off HDR, change game quality to low, nothing seems to fix the issue, then i tried change the mouse USB port to a chipset powered USB, nothing, still lags, then i was fed up, i was convinced that the problem is my Windows instalation, since i use my PC to work too (i have a lot of programming softwares, VMs, a lot of software) i think: "maybe is just my Windows doing weird things due to excess of installed crap".
Then i decided to format my SSD and do a clean Windows install, and after everything installed and configured, for my surprise, the lag is back, but worse this time, it lags every 10 seconds, is completely unplayable, and after almost give up and disassemble the entire PC to diagnose every component separately, i thinked: "everything on the game keep running fine when it lags, sound, allies, enemies, the network status stays normal, so it must be something related to mouse, maybe some firmware problem", then i started digging into G Hub and the i decided to apply my profile to the mouse internal memory and turn off G hub control over the mouse, and then, EVERYTHING WORKED PERFECTLY, no more lags, the mouse works fine for almost 2 hours without any issue, even the RGB stays perfectly fine.
So, the problem is, in fact, the DAMN G HUB, and thinking about it, it makes sense, since Microsoft announced the Dinamic Lightning Control in Windows and Logitech released the update to G HUB to support it, my peripherals starting acting weird sometimes. So, i hope this post can reach to someone at Logitech software team, so they can work in a permanent fix for this problem.
Also, if you having similar problems with your Logitech mouse, try copy your user profile to the internal memory and disable G Hub control over your peripherals. Maybe this will fix the problem for you too.
I love my G502 Hero, and have this problem with G Hub is a bummer, but since i discovered a temporary fix, i'll keeping using him until he dies and i'll be forced to buy a G502X, LOL.

2024.05.19 05:25 Euphoric_Staff2752 Which gym leaders and champions are hardest in the PWT?

I've been trying to go through the PWT in triple battle mode and I've retrying and trying different strategies and damn is it tough. Here are some I struggled with while playing (My team is Espeon, Drifblim, Heracross, Roserade, Crustle and Azumarill):
Kanto: Blaine is very hard. His Magmortar, Rapidash, Arcanine and Ninetales hit hard. I have 3 PokƩmon with coverage against fire (Crustle, Azumarill and Heracross with Earthquake) but his team is just too fast and hard hitting for me. I've completed the Kanto tournament a couple times but haven't won against him once. Misty, Sabrina and Brock are pretty hard too. Misty's Starmie very fast and has strong attacks, Lapras is bulky and hits hard and weirdly enough her Seaking's given me trouble since it's fast and will assist it's team members in taking me out. Sabrina uses sleep strats which sucks for me, plus her team is full of glass canons. Brock is hard too, his Aerodactyl is fast and uses Rock slide which hits all opposing team members and has a chance to flinch.
Johto: I haven't won against Falkner, Bugsy, or Clair. Falkner's team is fast and hits hard, Bugsy's hard because I don't have a fire type, and Clair uses 3 pseudo legendaries with Salamence, Dragonie and Garchomp. I haven't beaten this one yet, but I plan to usr a flygon with fire punch, earthquake, stone edge and dragon claw.
Hoenn: Flannery is very hard, Magmortar hits like a truck and Torkoal is bulky and has yawn. I haven't won against her once. The other leaders can be tricky if I get unlucky like Juan and Norman. Norman's spinda uses confusion strats, Zangoose hits hard, Castform has moves like hydro pump and fire blast for coverage and that damn Kecleon has skill swap for Slaking.
Sinnoh: I haven't won against Fantina yet and have only one against Candice once in the dozens of times I attempted the sinnoh tournament. Both have a mix of very hard hitting glass canons and tanks. Fantina's Gengar has hypnosis and dream eater, and it's tough to quickly take out her glass canons like Drifblim, Mismagius, Rotom and Gengar when her Dusknoir and Spiritomb keep trolling me with status ailments and pain split. I only won against Candice by getting very lucky. The strat is to quickly get rid of the Froslass, Weavile and Mamoswine because they wreck my team and I have to remove the major threats and deal with the less threatening PokƩmon like Abomasnow, Glalie and Glaceon later. Problem is they'll take me out before I take them out.
Unova: I haven't beaten Drayden or Chili yet and only defeated Burgh once. Yes, Burgh is very difficult. I thought he'd be easy since his Leavanny has so many weaknesses, and yeah it's usually a one hit KO, but it's that damn Durant that causes me trouble. Durant is quick, has high attack, and is weak to a type that I don't have on my team. On most of my attempts beating him, I'll usually have an easy time dealing with his team and have more PokƩmon than him, but then he'll send out Durant as one of his last PokƩmon and sweep me. It has Rock slide which hits all opposing targets PLUS a chance to flinch. That thing hits hard, and I can't take it out quickly due to lack of a fire type. Chili's hard for the same reasons as Flannery and Blaine. Drayden's team is crazy. Haxorus, Flygon, Salamence and Hydreigon on one time. A Haxorus with a dragon gem boosted Outrage, mind you.

Destructive catšŸ˜­
Okay so I have a lil tabby cat and sheā€™s a year old. I play with her so much (especially compared to my other cat) to try tire her out because sheā€™s always been super destructive. I have cat trees/scratchers in most of my rooms. Even the hallway. But every morning at like 3-7 she destroys n scratches my carpet. To he point itā€™s getting bad. Idk what to do. Iā€™ve used tape. Deterrent Spray etc . Nothing deters her. I canā€™t even lock her in a certain room cause I just have carpets everywherešŸ˜­ and she rips them up if sheā€™s locked in or out a room. Iā€™m actually struggling to sleep so much cause it wakes me up on instinct. I rent n Iā€™m so stressed helpšŸ˜­ like luckily I wake up I guess but Iā€™ll be away for a week and a friend will be looking after then (she is very heavy sleeper) Iā€™m worried Iā€™ll come back to destructionšŸ˜­. (Another note. Iā€™ve also tried them treat puzzles n stuff but sheā€™s clever and opens them super fast)

2024.05.19 05:24 nervosatea Scared for summer

hey guys, iā€™ve been feeling better since starting zoloft. however summers coming and i live in an old house on the second floor. it absorbs heat like crazy. i have an ac unit which helps a lot but it doesnā€™t compare to central ac. its only may and it almost got to 90 degrees today where i live. itā€™s also rural so the humidity is insane. iā€™ve been dealing with a headache the last few hours that i think was caused by the heat. i did some errands today so i have been outside but nothing significant. this has me really scared for the rest of summer honestly if itā€™s only may and already so hot. iā€™m hoping i can get used to it but this head pain is frustrating and scary because i am so scared of heat exhaustion. any tips?

2024.05.19 05:24 deeplyaspire New symptoms, does this sound or look like herpes?ā€¦

TLDR: if you arent squeamish or dont mind taking a look I attached pics to my profile.
My vagina has been itching. I am on the last 2 days of my period & free bled a little, so I assumed this caused some itchiness and irritation., or possibly even a yeast infection seeing as I have gone to the gym as well. Whenever I shower & get my shower head over it, I feel fine. I get out and dont feel itchy. Only later does it feel itchy, & if i scratch, it starts an itchy out burst. It isnt unbearable but it feels very good to itch it, super relieving like scratching your scalp really good when your hair was itching bad. I can be super rough too scratching. I sorta DJ record scratch it and get a ton of relief.
I dont know whats happening so I googled & of course the results scared me. ā€œGenital herpesā€ & other STDs. I took videos/pictures to see how I looked down there and now I am a bit scared as I do see a red area with what looks like bumps. However its not like its itching only where those bumps are, its just the entire vagina hole area.. If you are curious enough or not squimish I posted pics on my profile.
I scheduled a doctors appointment but I am freaking out. Could this be genital herpes? It isnt ā€œpainfulā€. After a while of DJ record scratching it can feel slightly dried out and discomforting but not painful. And after a good scratch I can go without touching it. A shower pretty much gets rid. What could this be?

2024.05.19 05:23 OldBeginning3462 Well I gained access to the Alpha Silo

So yesterday afternoon I said that I was going to go to the nuclear silo at site alpha to launch a nuke and do the I am become death mission
well I managed to get inside the nuclear silo and make it pretty far but the assaultron dominators are wrecking house with me and I didn't realize that it was going to be an infinite respawn of robots especially when I start repairing the reactor
the only downside is that these guys are capable of one shotting me when they use their laser and fist attacks at the same time I'm almost getting close by just bum rushing it but I'm always one or two short and I end up dying more often than not before the timer runs out.
I probably need to go hunting for other players on the Xbox worlds and I'm on to see if any of them would like to help there are probably a decent amount of people out there who could help me but I also want to do this mission on my own that way I can launch the nuke myself I just don't think I'm strong enough right now
The only upside is that during the mothman equinox event I managed to get two weapons that are pretty fun in my opinion which was the short minigun and the kaboom shotgun both of these things hit hard and hit like trucks and I can't wait to find their higher level variants.
The short minigun doesn't shoot fast but each bullet does around 22 damage every time I use it which is a lot considering that all my other weapons do very little in comparison the shotgun does 80 damage a pop if I'm correct but so far as soon as if the minigun works a lot better than the shotgun does and I do believe that the back blast of the kaboom had causes me damage too.
I'm definitely in a bind and I may have to return eventually.

2024.05.19 05:21 Benmichawl Is a dystonia where muscle spasms are seemingly triggered by irritants and muscle use easy to treat ?

So Iā€™ve been officially diagnosed with cervical dystonia but I think I have a more general type of task-specific and irritation based dystonia that mainly affects the nasopharynx to larynx zone (was just the larynx 10 years ago), causing my inhaling to feel very stiff. It seems to get triggered by burps, gas fumes from stomach and has now (3-4 years later), has almost gotten chronic. Whatā€™s interesting is sensory stuff like eating, excessive burping, going out on a windy day, or accidentally twisting my leg can switch off the stiffness. If I start mouth breathing for a while and then go back to nose breathing, itā€™s very clear for like a minute. Iā€™ve done all sorts of testing for stuff like allergies and food intolerances already.

2024.05.19 05:21 Lordsoggyballs Anyone else enjoy going to claimed workshops with players and killing them to try and initiate fights?

I've gotten bored with most things, but being a nuisance to definitely still fun. Sometimes they'll fight back, other times they give up, but I LOVE it when they fight back.
It also let's me swap between a few different builds, usually I start with Auto Axes cause I can walk right up to them and claim it and they're none the wiser. After that I swap to a BE1P Radium or Fixer with a full VATS crit stealth build. Once I'm bored with that I try an explosive build with a generic TS Fatman, usually that destroys their stuff though.
Camps are also fun to try and initiate PVP in, just today I had someone hiding in their base after seeking revenge and I just destroyed the roof and attacked them, when we were done his camp was torn down to foundations. That was definitely one of my favorite fights I've had in a while.

2024.05.19 05:21 KoburaCape Concern about diet because of many overlapping GI issues

I got help from a vet as well as someone else in the medical field writing this, so that's why it sounds intelligent. I've been a chronic patient for 20 years so I'm knowledgeable but not as concise as they are:
The patient is a 35yo Male Caucasian with UC status post colectomy in his 20s with J-pouch renastomosis complicated by a minor, chronic stricture where his J-pouch joins the rectum. High fiber intake has previously caused obstructions requiring medical mgmt (self resolved with irrigation on following occasions).
FHx of Familial Ulcerative Colitis (patient note - technically incorrect though likely, my grandfather was very secretive about his colostomy and all surrounding circumstances before and after, so it's presumable but not confirmed)
He had a lumbar to sacral fusion surgery at the end of February. He's been cleared for regular activity. There was a surgical site infection; so there was a second surgery three weeks after the first status post cefazolin x4 weeks.
He's been having pain off and on since December. Slowly getting more frequent to now 3-4 occasions per week (patient note, usually at night but has not always followed eating more recently. Used to be reliably 3ish hours after eating but now can be as long after as 6hours). Gallstones diagnosed with ultrasound right before back surgery so he declined gallbladder removal at that time. He has an appointment to see someone about treatment on 5/30 but in the meantime has had pervasive postprandial pain usually rated 5-8/10.
As for diet, milk was initially tolerated but then intolerable with high volume intake. Noodles are tolerable but cause constipation. Ground beef and smoked salmon have both caused pain. Lean sirloins are tolerable at very low volume. Clearly, anything fibrous is not tolerated including many vegetables.
How should we alter his diet to reduce pain and risk of obstrxn?

2024.05.19 05:20 qwas12357 BPD and hurdles to recovery

Vital Environmental Factors That Can Prevent Recovery From BPD:
If, as a result of childhood trauma, we have developed post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or borderline personality disorder (BPD) our post-traumatic environment can have an extremely strong impact upon our chances of recovery. I list some particularly important factors below :
LACK OF SUPPORT FROM FRIENDS, FAMILY AND THE WIDER COMMUNITY / SOCIETY
If we are not provided with such support, but, instead, are shunned and ignored, it is highly likely that our feelings of worthlessness, vulnerability and isolation will be intensified.
Support needs to be non-judgmental, empathic and validating both of our emotional pain and also of our interpretation of how our adverse experiences have affected us.
Also, those providing the support need to be 'emotionally literate' (i.e. able and willing to discuss feelings and emotions in a compassionate and understanding manner)
NOT BEING BELIEVED
Obviously, if people we talk to about our traumatic experiences don't believe what we are saying or believe we are exaggerating the seriousness of what happened to us (or the seriousness of the effect it has had upon us) our psychological condition is likely to be severely aggravated: our lack of self-esteem, sense of despair, sense of worthlessness, sense of unlovability, feelings of isolation and any feelings of anger, bitterness and resentment we may have are all likely to be severely intensified.
SECONDARY VICTIMIZATION
We need to avoid those who would cause us secondary victimization. Secondary victimization occurs when those who ought to be helping us instead harm us further. Indeed, the example of not being believed (see above) is one such form of secondary victimization.
Other examples of secondary victimization include :
On top of these problems, it can, too, be difficult to get professional support:
A recent study carried out by Proctor et al., 2020, has produced further evidence that BPD sufferers frequently find it highly problematic gaining access to effective treatment such as dialectical behaviour therapy, or DBT. (In relation to this problem, you may wish to read my previously published articles: How Malignant Alienation May Impoverish Care BPD Patients Receive.)
Whilst many professional used to believe BPD was typically unresponsive to treatment, this can no longer operate as a feasible excuse as there now exists an increasingly large and growing body of evidence that a substantial proportion of those who have been diagnosed with this extremely serious condition (which is closely linked to severe and protracted, interpersonal, childhood trauma) can be treated effectively, at least to the degree that they no longer fulfil the requisite criteria necessary for the diagnosis of BPD to continue to be applicable.
The authors of the study suggest that difficulty obtaining proper treatment is linked to the continued stigma attaching itself to a BPD diagnosis. However, as sufferers of the condition become increasingly knowledgeable about the illness and of the existence of evidence base therapies like DBT (see above), so too should their confidence assertively to request the opportunity to access such treatment. After all, about one in ten BPD sufferers eventually die by suicide, so the need for such individuals to be offered compassionate, non-judgmental, empathetic and non-discriminatory treatment can hardly be overstated. The treatment of extreme mental pain is just as much of an ethical imperative as is the treatment of extreme physical pain.
The Australian study surveyed 500 patients between 2011 and 2017 and found that those offered appropriate help often waited between a year and a year-and-a-half to receive it. The author of the study pointed out that this not only resulted in unnecessary suffering for the BPD sufferer but also placed extra strain on hospital emergency services (i.e. due to more BPD sufferers reaching crisis point, attempting suicide, self-medicating with dangerous levels of alcohol and/or narcotics, extreme self-harm such as self-cutting and self-burning etc.).
The researchers concluded by emphasizing the importance of health professionals applying NHMRC BPD guidelines in order to support front line services responsible for the welfare of BPD sufferers.

2024.05.19 05:19 Financial_Bedroom_26 Weird coloration

I noticed last night that on my upper, inner ish thighs I have purple coloration. I canā€™t recall doing anything/anything happening that would cause bruises. My mom guesses that itā€™s just due to my weightloss/my body changing. I have lost close to 80lbs. Anyone else experience this with their weightloss or should I go get checked out?

2024.05.19 05:19 FaithlessnessLow585 How long is normal for my age.

This is a burner account cause I canā€™t risk getting traced. Iā€™m a 17 yo guy. A lot of my friends and age mates are having sex and itā€™s just normal to them. I always wondered how long they last but itā€™s too weird to ask them. But I might be having sex soon and I donā€™t want to wonder if I was disappointing right after. So please.

2024.05.19 05:18 jaxazz1515 Is there really no hope?

19 M, first year of college. I self-diagnosed myself with CFS a year ago and it hasn't gotten better, I came into my university with high hopes and dignity to pass with good marks, despite all my studying effort and good daily routine like exercise and breathing exercises... I barely passed the first semester due to CFS, even after always 8-9 hours of sleep I can barely get out of bed, I can barely focus and remember my studying. It's even tiring to just hold up a conversation. When I looked up the causes it made sense to me that I was suffering from CFS, you see I was bullied in high school, I had a learning disability as a kid so I was a bit slow compared to others, transitioning to high school from elementary really took its toll on me. It gave me severe depression and suicidal thoughts at age 13. I thought I had gotten past that since then and nothing more was gonna come off of it. I had friends, I became more social and started to become religious again and was working towards a bright future. Turns out, built up stress and depression over years without medication and therapy would lead to a life of hell, because I was stupid... I didn't tell my family I was being bullied and going through something, because I was ashamed of myself for showing weakness, I know it's stupid but that's what I thought at the time. Now it's lead to this, even after being able to get by just fine for a few months due to my online freelancing it's gotten severely harder everyday and now I'm fearing that I won't be able to work enough to pay this month's rent. I live in a poor country and city and we don't have therapists around, I tried the betterhelp program and i've met a lot of good doctors who talked to me and gave me advice, in the end nothing helped. Some advised just convincing yourself CFS isn't real and that you are just fine and it's all in your head, but that's the thing, no matter if I remove the idea of CFS from my head I'm still beyond exhausted as if i hadn't gotten sleep in days. I've fallen into depression again, if i can't even hold up an online job anymore then what hope is there left for me? I could go back home to my family but even they are barely getting by with how hard it has been for their work too, i don't want to inconvenience them. I think death's just the better option at this point, at least so it gives me peace instead of a life of hell. Sorry for the long read
TL:DR I have had CFS for a year, no medicine, no therapy works, it's getting worse everyday is there really no cure? does it ever go away?
