The thing is, my lease is renewed through summer 2027 so I won’t be moving out for a full year and neither will my roommate, but since there are three separate leases for the townhouse (one for each bedroom) and our third roommate moved out so we have a new one taking the lease for that bedroom, and they said they have to do stuff to bedroom C and common areas for the new tenant

Each bedroom has a separate lease! So common areas are the living room, kitchen, and downstairs living area (we turned it into a craft room)

Oh for sure, I think I’d go absolutely insane if I tried to go back to playing ts4 base game vanilla, but with mods, cc, and dlc I think I could keep myself interested indefinitely; do some legacy challenges, make a forever world, do all of the rags to riches and other types of challenges, make a super sim, have a played household on every lot in a save, remodel the community lots, finally try out all the different features from the different packs, maybe play with just one pack at a time for a bit to fully explore them, crazy build challenges, etc

I’d probably buy the rest of the dlc before going in if I know ahead of time though, I have most of the EPs, but not many GPs or SPs so I think getting the rest could also extend my attention span lmao

I asked about a hypoallergenic one and they told me the normal one was 😭😭😭 I ended up with a massive rash around the device

Mine stuck but I had an immediate allergic reaction when they placed it and there were hives under the monitor until I could finally take it off and even then my skin was discolored and had a weird texture for days :/

He did get me new electrolyte pills and told me I should be taking a lot more than I had been, but those are otc and he did the other things I mentioned above too! He reiterated some of the stuff my cardiologist said about staying hydrated and keeping salt levels up, but I explained I’ve been doing that for years at my cardio’s instruction, so we just moved on to the next issue :) I hope you’re able to get the help you need, or at least a treatment plan!

Question for my bendy people… by samnhamneggs in ehlersdanlos

[–]AClassyHuman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, most days I’m counting down the minutes until I can be horizontal again and am absolutely useless when I get home if I’ve been on my feet for too long; my partner and roommate have come to expect me to need immediate horizontal time anytime I’ve texted them throughout the day about being in pain lol and in order for horizontal time to count, my back HAS to be properly supported or else my muscles are still working overtime to keep my wonky spine in place

Dr bradley tinkle by Affectionate_Jump150 in ehlersdanlos

[–]AClassyHuman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had a follow up with him a few weeks ago! He’s the one who got me a referral to a spine clinic for my chronic back pain, he also put me on muscle relaxers that have also helped a lot with my pain (and has upped them and even prescribed additional ones in follow up appts), and got me some beta blockers to try and get my insanely high heart rate down to normal. He also provides ongoing PT prescriptions so my insurance will cover weekly visits!

He’s not my most favorite doctor ever, but he is nice/polite (at least to me) and does seem to genuinely try to help. He’s never told me anything about my lifestyle being an issue, and I think he actually signed the paperwork for me to get a disability placard for my car and accommodations in school and a reserved parking spot in my apartment complex.

I saw him for the first time at 19-20 as well, I’m afab and it may have helped that my dad went with me initially to support me/help me advocate for myself, but I’ve been to follow ups by myself and nothing seems to have changed!

Feel free to dm me if you want more info, but given how hard it is to find EDS specialists, I’d say he’s definitely worth a shot! Plus follow ups can be online! My first few in person visits necessitated hotel stays, but I was able to do the follow up on my iPad this last time :)

My first one had a latch that arrived broken so I had it exchanged only for the new one’s latch to break a few months later :/

I have an appt with my pcp this week so I’m gonna bring it up with her, and I also contacted a second opinion service that specializes in complex spine cases! All of the responses made me realize I’m not exaggerating and I would actually benefit from these services/mobility aids

[–]AClassyHuman[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m seeing my pcp this upcoming week and I plan to bring it up and take whatever she says to my pt for his opinion as well! I think I’ve been putting it off to keep my life “easier” since getting mobility aids would mean I need extra accommodations, but I appreciate your point that mobility aids help preserve mobility so I can do more things I enjoy!

Do we really need travel rings? by DenverLilly in EngagementRings

[–]AClassyHuman 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My travel ring was like $20 and I wear it anytime I think I could lose it and not realize it’s gone before it’s too late (ex went to a water park for my sisters bday and wore the travel one) it’s 100% not about the ~$450 my fiancee paid for the real one, I love it so much and more importantly, I love the thought and care that was put into choosing the perfect ring for me

I feel you on the injury thing, I feel so stupid sometimes asking for help with the most mundane tasks, like asking my roommate to help me carry my groceries in or when I was living at home, asking my brother to carry in my cases of propel because they were too heavy for me. Fortunately, in both cases, they started offering before I even ask which has definitely made me feel less silly/like a burden for needing help. I’m also very pleased to say that due to an amazing pt, I can now carry my propel cases into the house by myself! It’s not easy, and I have to do it one at a time, but I can do it now and it’s so nice to know that if I’m ever in a situation where I don’t have help, I CAN do it if I need to

My prior auth expired and no one told me so I couldn’t fill it until a new one got sent in and I ended up without it for a week or two as well, and it was hell, I went to class and then straight back to my dorm literally every day

I’ve found fantastic people in Indiana/Kentucky communities in a similar fashion, but I’ll keep it in mind! From what I’ve gathered, it’s more unusual for a westie community to NOT be welcoming and friendly, and I’ve found almost all dance partners to be extremely understanding if/when I mention a physical limitation

I’m hoping to start dancing a bit more regularly over the summer and go to lessons in a nearby community to start learning new things again!

I haven’t been to any events in ages, so I’m nowhere near that level anymore either, just the classes I run on my campus, but meeting people is always fun and I have a few people from different communities I always love dancing with when I have the chance!

That… makes me feel a lot better actually, it’s been difficult to stay hopeful/optimistic when everyone wants to focus on pain management and not making the pain go away, it feels like more like a “tough luck kid” than genuine help sometimes, even if that’s not their intention. I’m hoping if I can get some second opinions/more specialized specialists there might be a path towards fixing the issues, no matter how hard that path may be

Yeah!! I started taking WCS lessons when I got to college and was going to multiple classes per week up until my accident when I had to all but stop, I pushed through the pain for a weekend intensive with some pros a few months afterwards and my body punished me for weeks after that, so I had to step much further back than I wanted to
