My daughter's behaviour drastically changes if she consumes food dyes (I believe the red dye specifically). She becomes extremely hyper in a way where it's out of her control and even slightly aggressive. I know other families with kids who have experienced the same symptoms. We try to avoid dyes but sometimes it's inevitable when they attend parties or celebrate holidays. There is no benefit to adding these to our foods. Completely unnecessary and I hope one day they are banned everywhere.
Nichole a soutenu : Ban All Artificial Dyes in CanadaAs a disabled Canadian with limited set income, I cannot afford rising prices. I can't afford to eat healthy anymore
Matthew a soutenu : Cap Grocery Prices Across CanadaI've suffered with PCOS for almost 20 years and I find it super ridiculous that not much is known and done about it in Healthcare, despite of how common it is. Living with this is a consistent and expensive struggle. I feel more can definitely be done.
Amber a soutenu : Subsidize Treatment and Medication for those Living with PCOS in CanadaI was diagnosed with PCOS back in 2015, I didnt know about what it was as much as I do now. I cant afford to pay for pcos supplements because alot of them are expensive « inositol, ovasitol, pcosense, etc ». We need the support and subsidize cause alot of us cant pay for treatments and supplements. PCOS should be treated like any other disease/disorder. We need more support and healthcare needs to be more knowledgable in PCOS, I can speak for some of us ladies that we get brushed off, unheard, told to lose weight/eat less/diet, and come back when you want to try having a baby. Living with PCOS is honestly a consistent struggle of moods, emotions, expensive, etc; more NEEDS to be done!
Laura a soutenu : Subsidize Treatment and Medication for those Living with PCOS in CanadaEven if nothing else can be done, allowing for certain expenses (like hair removal) to be a valid medical expense for tax purposes, would be a significant help and acknowledgement.
Christy a soutenu : Subsidize Treatment and Medication for those Living with PCOS in CanadaMy brain is changing. I was the queen of multitasking and 6 months into long Covid, I can barely task at all. The brain fog is so bad I’ve had to leave myself notes on how to make my coffee just right, something I’ve done without thought for 20 years.
I’m grieving the person I was 6 months ago. My body is covered in psoriasis, I can’t get good sleep as night terrors, sleep paralysis, and leg/feet cramping ruin each attempt. Dizzy spells and vomiting daily. Anxiety attacks and gut problems. I feel sick with nausea and headaches all the time.
My beautiful home is now neglected and my financial security is gone. I struggle everyday to not let depression take over. I’m fighting hard for the future I had 6 months ago. I’m told to accept that it’s gone. I’m so heartbroken and afraid. How will I take care of myself when the Employment Insurance runs out? I’m getting worse every week and I’m scared.
Thanks for reading.
Elissa a soutenu : Canadian Government: Needing recognition of research and offer rehabilitation for Covid-19 Long HaulersSupport for long term Covid sufferers is sadly lacking. Employers, insurance companies, and society in general play " dodge the ball" while individuals who have never really recovered from the virus struggle with real world personal, health, and economic consequences. Also, the medical profession is still playing catch up.
Margaret a soutenu : Canadian Government: Needing recognition of research and offer rehabilitation for Covid-19 Long HaulersI had rheumatoid arthritis and wasn't diagnosed for 2 years. In those 2 years, I was forced to take steroids, which caused me to gain 200 pounds in less than a year. Once I was finally diagnosed with RA, I was taken off steroids and prescribed the appropriate treatments for the disease. Once I was out of a wheelchair, and able to walk without severe pain, I joined a gym, and have been working out almost every day for over a year now. I lost 215 pounds as of today. I was referred to a plastic surgeon, and was told that my BMI would have to be lower than 32, AND I would
be REQUIRED to have liposuction and contouring, even though I am perfectly happy with my body shape. My BMI is currently 36, but the equation doesn't consider muscle mass. I literally spend hours in the gym, every day, amounting to about 18-20 hours of cardio and weightlifting. I have done EVERYTHING in my power to keep going and do the best I can for my body. The skin on my thighs and pelvic area are so loose, that it now hurts to ride a bike. Additionally, medicare doesn't cover the cosmetic parts of the surgery, which I don't want anyway. Because I am immunocompromised, the more invasive the procedure is, the more I am at risk for infection.
This is not right.
Louise a soutenu : Dr Jennifer Russell: Make Skin Removal Surgery For Bariatric Patients Covered By MedicareIt is so difficult to see your regular doctor, waiting 6 wks & then limited to one topic per visit, it takes forever to get a referral to a dermatologist - then to be told a 3 topic visit. Hence 3 only spots are checked. There has to be a better way to manage skin issues.
