It was addressed for the apartment complex near me, but I had no idea which building to try, it was a heavy box, so I brought it inside and contacted Hungryroot support.
They told me they will send the lady a new box and that I can keep hers or donate it. So I opened it up and made dinner and planned the rest of my weeks meals.
Well this morning I’m leaving for work and this lady is staring at me waving her arms. This is 16 hours after I got the box btw. I put my window down and she’s like “do you have my box??”
I was shocked so I told her “yes but I contacted support and they said they were sending you another one” and she goes “ok well can I have it back, I need breakfast”
I told her I was late for work but would run in and see what was left…I grabbed the oats and a muffin because the rest was all in my pantry and again, I was late for work. I went back out and handed it to her. She grumbled about not having the rest, I said I’m sorry, and that she would be getting all her items replaced.

What are your thoughts on this?
Morally I should’ve spent the time tracking the box down to the right owner but…realistically? I had just gotten off of work, was exhausted, and didn’t have the mental capacity to figure out which apartment building it belonged to. So I feel like I did everything I was supposed to do.
I’m also surprised that lady even wanted her food back considering it was opened and touched by strangers. I really wanted to try that muffin.
But I really can’t afford Hungryroot without the first order discount. Just a funny little story I guess.

I’m 27F, used to be active but slowly have been getting worse, fatigued, and weak.
My vascular surgeon said there’s no need to rush into surgery when I told him I was highly considering it. I also have other health concerns I’m working out with doctors so I don’t even know what caused my TOS yet, they said my anatomy is just naturally narrow but I wasn’t a big sports player for long, just a few years of tennis.
I have bilateral aTOS and early signs of vTOS due to an old blood clot under my left collarbone, but blood is able to flow through for now…
I’m in a lot of pain daily and PT has made it a lot worse. I feel like I wasn’t in this much pain before starting it.
I have to sleep a very particular way, on my back only, two pillows elevating my arms so they don’t fall asleep, and pillows supporting my neck because I can only comfortably rest it to the right side. Left hurts too much.

When did you decide enoughs enough?

Hi, I have vTOS and bilateral aTOS confirmed by a vascular surgeon. I posted in another group asking about some bloodwork, mentioned the TOS in the post, and someone was extremely adamant that TOS is a TikTok disorder and I don’t have it. Like, replying to every comment saying “you don’t have vTOS”
Obviously this is a troll or someone uneducated but it does make me wonder, is TOS a universally accepted diagnosis, or is it controversial at all?

I know everyone is different but recently had my iron tested and I have a deficiency, I suspect it’s from long term Pepcid leading to malabsorption. I also take Cromolyn and Pepcid&Zyrtec.

I’m seeing that liposomal iron is the most gentle. Does anyone have any brands they recommend?

Thank you!

Collecting data for my own purposes…I have a theory that things like MCAS and POTS, are all the same disorder…and that the pandemic in 2020 and beyond is why we see so many people now getting these diagnosis’. It’s not just a TikTok disorder, these are real issues people are dealing with.

Me personally I noticed my symptoms began in 2019 but after getting COVID a couple times I never truly returned to my baseline and it’s been a struggle ever since.

I also saw a paper recently suggesting these syndromes are all comorbidities of rare sleep disorders.

I really can’t wait to see what sort of breakthroughs the medical field can make in MCAS and similar syndromes in the coming years. It’s gotta be something more than I just woke up one day and my body decided to be allergic/intolerant to everything…

And I didn’t get treated for “anxiety” for 7 years just to find out I have MCAS and vTOS for nothing!!!

Would love to hear from those who had the transaxillary approach and the supraclavicular one. My vascular surgeon I believe does the transaxillary approach.
Left vTOS along with bilateral aTOS
No major improvements with PT for 2 months
Developed tinnitus in my right ear
Day to day activity getting much harder and less bearable

I’m 27F, was super active as a teen but my pain slowed me down and it’s taken my 8 years to figure this puzzle piece out.
Not sure what caused my TOS other than my anatomy. Which is probs why PT isn’t working long term.

I’m scared, this would be my first major surgery! And I am bilateral so…which side do I even start with?

I’m seeing some mixed stuff online about whether or not the pulsatile tinnitus I think I’m experiencing is from my TOS.
I woke up a few days ago and could hear and feel my heart beating in my right ear. It got much worse when I yawned. It sort of tapered throughout the day but I’m left with some facial pain and soreness in my jaw. What’s going on? I do see a neurologist soon for my face tingling…

I am considering messaging my vascular surgeon in mychart to see what he thinks but I’m scared to waste his time if the 2 aren’t related…thanks a bunch

I have mixed bilateral TOS but still really early in my journey. But ever since I’ve been diagnosed and started PT it’s just been pain pain pain. Getting Botox soon. Considering surgery at Hopkins. I’m worrieddd about this new symptom now. It feels like my veins are failing

Hi there I am hoping to hear from those that have had surgery done for their TOS on both sides. The reason I’m asking is because I have bilateral compression but my right side is a bit more symptomatic, but my left side has an old blood clot and just slightly milder symptoms. I have a mix of aTOS, vTOS and nTOS according to my doctor.
They are giving me Botox soon on the right side, in the scalene.
How do I vouch for the left side to be done?
When they do surgery, how do I vouch for both sides?
Also I have no idea if I should do the scalene release or the rib removal. I’m seeing Dr. Lum @ JH.

Hi all I do not fly often and I have a flight coming up in August. I was wondering if I can take my Cromolyn through TSA in my carry on. The thing is I usually just carry the foil packs so I guess if I have my prescription I should be ok?

I assume it’s fine in checked luggage as well?

Will it explode??

Thanks all…
