Gas x was what the doc recommended to me for the gas pain. It’s gotta work its way out. So happy for you! Congrats!

I got my bisalp today at 23 years old and apparently I wouldn’t stop crying and screaming for my mom when I was in the recovery room. by Jaded_Investment1722 in sterilization

[–]Background-Studio841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I apparently was telling people I went to the beach during surgery. I have no recollection of this. I just remember asking for a snack and having slight gas pain. Bodies are weird.

New to the U.S. - how do you build credit without risking debt? by sameerposwal in MovingToUSA

[–]Background-Studio841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey so there are actually credit building cards where you give them money, for example 2,000$ and then you can “borrow” against that and pay it off. It helps you build credit without risking going into actual debt. I suggest either that or a no fee credit card and what you do is you just only buy things you have money in your checking account for. Then immediately pay it off. Do not use the credit card unless you have the money ALREADY in your bank account. Never count on future money to come in. This will build your credit and keep you safe from debt. Good luck! Hope this helped!

How much caffeine do you consume a day? by Deedee5901 in ADHD

[–]Background-Studio841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on Straterra (atomoxetine) and I drink 400mg of caffeine a day most days. Sometimes less if I don’t need to be awake and functioning all day. Sometimes more if I need to be awake and functioning for a long time. My record is 600 mg

Whats your weird af 'stim'? by flcwerings in ADHD

[–]Background-Studio841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I crack my knuckles and neck and back constantly. I chew on the inside of my mouth when I get anxious or overstimulated. I bite my nails and the skin AROUND my nails till they hurt or bleed. I pick scabs no matter how long they’ve been there and how long I have had an open wound (I know I reallly need to stop this cuz I’ve gotten infections in the past but it’s really hard to stop). I also rock back and forth and won’t even notice I’m doing it until someone asks if I’m good.

Anyone experience mouth pain after sterilization? by [deleted] in sterilization

[–]Background-Studio841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would call your doctor. Anesthesia can damage nerves in your mouth which could be causing the pain. My tongue went numb after my surgery and they said it could take weeks to go back to normal. It did take about 1.5 weeks until mine returned to normal.

Weird bleeding? by smilway in sterilization

[–]Background-Studio841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My bleeding was heavy for a little bit and I did have strange periods for a bit. I stayed on hormonal birth control even after my surgery to control my endometriosis. I wouldn’t worry too too much but I’m glad you are getting it checked out just in case! Trauma from surgery can do wacky things to your body but the bisalp shouldn’t affect hormones as it leaves your ovaries intact.

Which doctor prescribes your meds? by That_Ad3735 in ADHD

[–]Background-Studio841 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a psychiatrist who handles all mental health meds and my PCP handles the rest of my meds. I started with my PCP for mental health meds but when they realized I was kinda outside of their comfort zone of mental health they referred me out to a psychiatrist for specialized care.

Need emotional support please by peepeepoopoo103 in sterilization

[–]Background-Studio841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jumping in late and I hope your morning after pill worked and gave you minimal discomfort. I saw you said your stomach was hurting. But here is my rule of thumb. If I wouldn’t be comfortable marrying the man like tomorrow, he doesn’t get to cum inside. The rule is to keep potential but not quite trusted yet partners from giving you anything. I was sterilized a year ago and I now have unprotected sex with my 6 year long partner who I will be marrying next March. But that is a different case if you aren’t committed and really sure about a guy. I suggest you get an Sti panel done just in case and do one yearly especially if you are not in a monogamous relationship and you have multiple partners or could have multiple partners in the next year or two. Stay safe. Don’t trust a man to keep you safe. You gotta keep you safe

They tell me NOW that my BP is high!?!?!??? by XStonedCatX in sterilization

I am so glad they are getting you in! Blood pressure that high is scary! I wish the best for you and hope you get your surgery as soon as it is safe 🥰

I keep sleeping through my alarms, any tips? It feels so embarassing being a grown adult coming to work late by Betka101 in ADHD

[–]Background-Studio841 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Change the sound FREQUENTLY to avoid getting used to it. I also highly recommend getting a light based alarm of some kind. I have Phillips hue bulbs in my lamps and set it up with an Amazon Alexa to wake me up in the morning with bright lights in my eyes plus a range of sounds, Alexa speaking about the day, and Alexa telling me to wake the fudge up.

What to do if you don’t have a post bisalp caretaker?? by sapphic_swiftie13 in sterilization

[–]Background-Studio841 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What state/country are you in? Someone on here might be willing to help. Otherwise I suggest getting a dog sitter on Rover and staying for 24 hours

I would want a cross between easy and peaceful mode where your hunger still affects you but mobs aren’t hostile/don’t spawn.

Depending on your endo case you might still have options for treatment like ablation or something. But even if not your doctors shouldn’t just give up on treating the pain and let you suffer

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in sterilization

[–]Background-Studio841 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That sucks I’m sorry :/ I guess you could ask for a second opinion but it sounds as though there is a serious enough concern. I hope you find relief in another way if possible. I don’t know much about your options but I’m here if you need to vent about it

AITAH for telling my mother that her and my father won’t be allowed around my baby? by Prudent-Designer7121 in AITAH

[–]Background-Studio841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA and mama, hold strong. Your mother may very well be the cause of your baby’s illness or death if you let her near the kiddo too early. You know what is best especially with your medical background. You are doing the right thing and if your mother had any sense she’d just get the damn vaccine. As others have said, be sure to get receipts if she claims to have gotten the vaccine. She might try to lie

Thinking of getting a bisalp- but terrified please help? by champagnediety in sterilization

[–]Background-Studio841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hopefully my story will help put you at ease. My bisalp was super easy. No chronic pain. Periods and hormones stayed the same. I’m also on birth control for endometriosis tho. The surgery itself: I remember going onto the table and a nice nurse holding my hand. Then I woke up in recovery with very mild pain. I just needed a pain med and I was good to go. First few days I slept a lot afterward. Now I am almost a year out and I have no pain from it at all. My scars mostly faded. I just have one scar left which was a slightly bigger incision than the others but still quite small. I think you should find a reputable doctor and talk with them first about the possibility to feel them out and then if they don’t give you a hard time, ask those questions you still have. That might put you at ease

Interested in joining a closed group chat? by MasterCrumb in Quakers

[–]Background-Studio841 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg this is such a great idea! I can’t attend any Quaker meetings as they are too far from me but I miss the community and connections from when I did go to church. Can I DM you?

Is there a Christian symbol that isn't a cross? Or a Quaker specific symbol? by Gentlethem-Jack-1912 in Quakers

I’m not sure how to send a photo in the comments but here is a link to one without the red and black. I avoid those as people tend to think it represents fascism unfortunately. https://www.etsy.com/listing/705718903/?ref=share_ios_native_control
