Off topic: The pandemic has been wonderful for my gi tract. Constipation driven by office bathrooms problems where a regular concern. I would really try to time bowel movements so that they would happen at home. And would get constipated if I missed my window. Not having to worry about this has been a huge quality of life improvement. |

Ever since I started working from home regularly, my GI system has never been better. I went from having the worst GI issues in my household to having the best GI system. I'm sure having less stress in general from not having to go to the office is a huge help. It's also great that I can freely pass gas as needed instead of holding it in for hours which caused tremendous pain as the day went on.
My back is actually doing much better too. I designed (using that term loosely, more like jury-rigged) a wooden chair with a tailbone cushion, open back so my spine doesnt have any pressure on it, and a swivel keyboard/mouse tray aligned with my arm-rests so it puts almost no strain on my wrists. It's basically like this - https://imperatorworks.com/index.php/iw-r1 - but no monitor attachments, it's made out of an old wood rocking chair, and it's ugly as sin. Does wonders for my back though
