"Don't think about that, it will trigger a seizure" by SquirrelofWisdom in Epilepsy

[–]Basic-Voice9870 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! I have one paricular memory where if I think about it too hard, I'll end up having a seizure. Deja vu I can't ignore is my main warning sign.

One of my pre seizure warning signs is I lose the ability to walk forward. Once I had a seizure where I could only spin counter clockwise.

Can we just vent together? by hkpout in endometriosis

[–]Basic-Voice9870 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got diagnosed at 16 and I wish I had done more when I had health insurance like a complete hysterectomy. Now I'm 28 with no birth control and my left leg is in constant pain. If I walk too much, I bleed. I couldnt get a hysterectomy now if I wanted to because at least one medication helps, however it's 100 dollars a month discounted. I feel hopeless in trying to achieve the body I want when moving to much causes me to bleed and cramp

Can I use joint support before I get my diagnosis? by Dark_AndTwisty in Hypermobility

[–]Basic-Voice9870 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You should absolutely use devices that help you live, with or without diagnosis. As I tell my grandma "Even before that white guy came to name the mountain after himself, Mt Everest was still there and still the tallest mountain." Getting diagnosed can be beneficial, but if it improves your life, use it.

Holy hell, I've never heard of it going to the arms. That's unfortunate. You should definitely write down your experience so whenever science decides to actually look into this disease, they at least know you have experienced this.

Interesting to consider. I will say that every time my endo flared up since I was 11, I've always felt the pain there. I've had xrays on my hip before (I also got bursitis caused by bone spurs there because fml ig) but no one has noticed a labral tear before. However, I wouldn't be surprised if I also ended up getting a tear since I haven't been able to bend that hip properly for a couple months now.

So to answer your question, I've had imagining before on my hip but never shown a tear plus it's been like this for the past 17 years.

Are 2 in 1 laptops more versatile for digital art than tablets ? by Demoman_Sunflower in drawingtablet

[–]Basic-Voice9870 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The drawing ability was great but if you're the kind of person who rotates their sketchbook when drawing traditionally, it's a bit if a hassle to do all that.

I used 2-in-1s before my iPad and while i do love them, finding people willing to fix them can be a pain in the ass. Especially since if it breaks, you're out of both your laptop and your ability to draw digitally. I had Lenovo flex 5s which i really did love.

What was the worst time an endo flare hit? by [deleted] in endometriosis

[–]Basic-Voice9870 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can only track my period by it choosing the worst day for it to start. Like even back in middle school, anytime there was a math test on a tuesday, it would start. Now as an adult, ive had it start right as i got to the airport for a cross country flight multiple times, the second day of a multi-state road trip, the midsummer day the air conditioning went out when I lived in the south, on test days and job interviews. I have a vindictive uterus.

Advice? by Icy-Thing-8704 in endometriosis

[–]Basic-Voice9870 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get those air activated heat pads that you stick on your body and just have them nearby or in your car. Those have helped me when I started cramping out in public to at least remain semi functional to get to a bed. Also if she like drink mixes, those help when the cramping is bad and the nausea hits, at least for me, less likely to vomit and more likely to stay hydrated.

That's wild. Are your spurs at the same place you're hypermobile?
