How do you feel about those extremely cringe and tone deaf "hype" meetings HR tends to have with employees and why is this a thing? They can't be oblivious to the fact that these don't work and simply alienate their employees even more?

That's the most racist interpretation of gun control laws I've ever seen lol. You could build a skyscraper with that much iron-y.

My wife has some form of this. She breaks out in hives when she sweats or takes a shower/bath. It doesn't happen every time and most of the time it's fairly mild/moderate but I've seen her get so bad that she's crying while scratching. So much so she's bleeding pretty decently but she can't stop because they itch so bad but it also hurts like hell to itch. It's like watching someone torture themselves. Was really tough to see the first time it had got that bad when were dating.

She's never been diagnosed though. We try antihistamines but they don't seem to work so we will certainly try that Beta Alinine you mentioned. It's worth a shot. Thank you!

I'm on mobile so I haven't seen all the comments so forgive me.

My brother is going through something similar. He's been out of work for 3 years because of it. No doctor will diagnose him because they don't know what is wrong.

He no longer feels hot or cold unless in extreme temp changes. Doesnt sweat. He no longer feels an adrenaline rush when something scary happens. He can no longer feel his internal organs. This includes having to use the restroom. Instead he can feel "pressure" so it's the only way he knows to go. Among a dozen more things that I can't remember.

He has been to every speciality doctor that you can imagine if it ends in ologist. Neurologist, urologist, etc.. He has run every conceivable test and it never says anything. He's denied disability because of no diagnosis.

Do you have any advice? Everytime he goes to a doc he's treated like a pariah. He's sick of hearing that it's all in his head.

It would seem likely that you two went off to sleep but maybe you will see my question when you wake up. Have either of you found a significant other while on the road? I know that dating is likely a stretch being on the road so much but I cannot imagine life without my wife and daughter. There is a level of comfort you just can't get from friends and family that you can from someone you are dating. If in fact you are seeing someone then forget my question but if not, don't pass up a missed opportunity. It may be hard and seem impossible but life on this world is short and you should know considering your condition. Don't let the hunt for a cure consume those aspects of your life. I have a 3yr old with precursor b cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. It's changed my entire outlook on life and made me realize not to be consumed by one thing and to really focus on the important things.
