    NinaWelch got a reaction from Arabesque in Traveling cross country-5 weeks post op   
    Wearing compression stockings can help improve circulation and reduce the risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) during long periods of sitting, like during a cross-country car trip. It's especially important to consider if you're still in the early stages of recovery from surgery.

    Compression stockings can help prevent blood from pooling in your legs and reduce the risk of developing blood clots. They're easy to wear and can make a big difference in your comfort and safety during long drives. Remember to stretch your legs and take breaks regularly to keep your blood flowing and reduce the risk of DVT.

    NinaWelch got a reaction from Arabesque in Insomnia   
    I've heard from friends who've had success with non-medication approaches like mindfulness meditation or establishing a consistent bedtime routine. Have you tried any of these? Also, I've heard you can buy zopiclone online as a solution to insomnia. I haven't personally tried it, but it might be worth looking into if you're open to exploring different options. Just remember to always consult with your healthcare provider before trying any new medication, especially if you're already taking other medications.

    NinaWelch got a reaction from Arabesque in Ring Size?!   
    First off, congrats on your weight loss journey – that's seriously impressive! As for the ring, it varies for everyone, but generally, your hands might stabilize in size after a significant weight loss. It's usually safe to resize your ring after you've maintained your weight for a while.
