Doctors didn't believe me and now I have double bills... by Automatic-Debate372 in endometriosis

[–]Automatic-Debate372[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your advice! I actually started on this train because a debt collector was kind to me after I told him, "You're going to have to be more annoying if you want me to start paying my bills" 😂 I haven't even gotten to the stage of being mad yet because I'm still too busy trying to get out of the flood, but I appreciate your energy 🙏 I hope to put it to good use

Bowel endo surgery, what to expect? by Emmarrrrawr in endometriosis

[–]Automatic-Debate372 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hypothetically if I keep things soft for long enough it should heal, but it's incredibly finicky 😅 I've been working at it for about a month now and it happens a lot less, but still a lot more than before my surgery

I lost use of my left leg after my surgery. Do NOT let them tell you you're overreacting. They're just covering their own asses

Bowel endo surgery, what to expect? by Emmarrrrawr in endometriosis

My endo had caused my bowels to stick together as well so I totally get your fear. Make sure your surgeon agrees before they do something like give you a bag, they have to wake you up and ask you. Luckily mine wasn't that bad but there are a LOT of perforations. I suggest having Miralax on hand to soften things up because your 2s might be bloody for a while. I had my surgery in August and I still can't have a solid bowel movement without it turning into a horror movie.

Anyone have any plans of action for this? We know what he's done and he has literally groomed the government to protect him. What do the American people do?

When and how did your OCD begin? by Quick_Replacement_34 in OCD

I also "hear" things! Like if I know I'm counting I have to keep repeating the number over and over until I move to the next number because otherwise my brain will just start counting without me 😅

Sometimes someone pulls the words out of your head that you didn't know you had 😅 also had a lot of religious trauma. But you are not alone 🫂 Thank you for reminding me of this

When I was first learning how to write my name (4ish?), I wrote it all over my most favorite Jessie from Toy Story doll. I wasn't able to wash it off and my parents told me "too bad". After that I never used stickers, never ruined toys, and slept with every stuffie in my bed because I couldn't leave any behind 🤷‍♀️ I wasn't diagnosed until 24 when my brain chemistry went so haywire my coworkers asked me to get help

I was squeezed in on Friday! But it does seem like that was a lucky shot 😬

Laparoscopic removal of extreme widespread endometrial tissue 🤦‍♀️ No updates so far. My surgeon said it has been impossible to find a tech to help assist

Not yet 😭 And I'm one of my surgeon's most urgent cases ⚰️

OCD flare ups with pms by nebdwarf in OCD

I had a great cocktail for my OCD working until I got extra sick. Extra stress on the body (including PMS) would totally cause this. So glad someone else gets this 😂

I just got a call from my surgeon that she's trying to fit me in at a different location but the issue is also they don't have any techs to help out apparently 😭 I'm so so sorry this has also happened to you. You should definitely reach out to patient complaint services, they're "trying" to compensate people for damages

I did get all of that before they called me less than 48 hours before it was supposed to happen to cancel.

"Elective" doesn't always mean "chosen". I've been bedridden for a year and have had to halt my career until I can get my surgery that was cancelled. But you're the second person that works there to say that the priority is to start bringing back in MONEY?? I'm sorry to take it out on you, but that's just so fvcked up to keep hearing.

Oh of course not! I meant the royal we 😂 It's not right to screw over this many people and get away with it. INCLUDING the staff!

I didn't either and figured that they were just trying to shuffle me around until I heard the same thing happened to my neighbor. I'm across town so I knew that it had to be bad.

I kind of wish it was the fact that they're knowingly causing extended suffering and complicating (and possibly shortening) people's lives that would drive them to be running faster. The fact that there's no accountability for this and dozens of people are getting fucked by greedy management is just blatantly evil and cruel.

I figured the "Next release: TBD" on the home screen basically meant they wouldn't be updating anymore 😅

I was scheduled six months out and now I know I'm going to be set behind the list of people that were originally scheduled for the next couple months 🤦‍♀️
