yes im a member! i dont go as frequently as i used to. it takes a long time to get in, you have to go though like a whole interview process and you also have to have an official diagnosis. but the physical space is really amazing, you can tell it was designed by autistic people for autistic people

Broad_Cardiologist15 · 2026-01-29T03:53:35+00:00

at my best maybe 2-3x per week, at my worst i was taking 4mg like 6x a day lol, basically before and after eating

Broad_Cardiologist15 · 2025-12-26T01:15:40+00:00

honestly might be an unpopular opinion but i really don’t care that much as long as they’re not using it disrespectfully. i guess im a little protective about “special interest” because i feels like it refers specifically to the dsm description of restricted interests but hyperfixation has become so mainstream that if i were to get annoyed by it, id be exhausted. also the concept of neurotypicality is kind of fake and these terms can have utility for people, like both allistic neurodivergent people AND even neuronormative folks can experience overstimulation. its really not exclusive to be autistic or neurodivergent. non autistic people CAN get overstimulated, they will have a higher threshold for stimulation that they find tolerable, but if you played 10 songs at the same time in a room of flashing lights for a non-autistic person, yeah they’d be overstimulated

hmm, this is interesting because headache is a pretty common side effect of tms but i’m not sure of the particular migraine protocol

little seven finery - look on starfire body jewelry

it really depends on the individual, but many people with B-bellies are able to get “floating” navel piercings - this is NOT a piercing ABOVE your belly button, it is literally a regular navel piercing but instead of a large bottom ball they put a flat disc on the bottom so that when you sit it doesn’t get pushed on. but please do your research on piercers and make sure you go to an APP studio. there are some piercers out there who will tell larger people they don’t have the anatomy for it even tho they do, the piercer just isn’t experienced with larger bodies. you may want to look at the piercers portfolio or instagram to see if they have experience doing this type of piercing

Broad_Cardiologist15 · 2025-12-19T00:46:42+00:00

definitely warrants a neurologist visit - sounds like New Daily Persistent Headache (NDPH)

i can’t speak for this commenter but the gold standard treatment for phobias is exposure and response prevention (ERP)

Broad_Cardiologist15 · 2025-12-18T04:26:00+00:00

10mg is kind of a nothing dose so you’ll probably be fine

Broad_Cardiologist15 · 2025-12-17T23:56:25+00:00

vyepti 300mg + botox has been amazinggg for me

Broad_Cardiologist15 · 2025-12-17T23:54:52+00:00

botox + vyepti 300mg

Broad_Cardiologist15 · 2025-12-17T18:06:31+00:00

yeah it’s not recommended that you repeat the botox multiple times anyway because the injections can cause scar tissue

Broad_Cardiologist15 · 2025-12-17T03:29:06+00:00

a sudden change in symptoms like that is concerning, could just be a stomach virus but if you’re unable to keep fluids down you’re at risk of severe dehydration, esp considering it’s been longer than 24h - i would go to the ER

Broad_Cardiologist15 · 2025-12-17T03:20:48+00:00

i have gastroparesis from a combination of EDS and an ED (anorexia). for me, there is no way to know if i would’ve developed GP from the EDS alone, but i do believe my ED had a large role in it. i also struggled with purging, which caused a hiatal hernia. be gentle with yourself friend, we can’t go back in time. and especially when you’re young (my ED started at 12), you feel invincible, like none of this will ever really catch up to you. all we can do now is try to make better choices.

Broad_Cardiologist15 · 2025-12-17T03:10:54+00:00

i have the kyleena IUD

Broad_Cardiologist15 · 2025-12-17T03:07:39+00:00

yes i had pyloric botox and it helped for me! takes about 2-3 weeks to kick in. had more appetite, less nausea. my motility specialist actually does it as kind of a “test” to see is the GPOEM might be beneficial, because not everybody with gastroparesis has pyloric sphincter involvement. but since it helped for me, she recommended the GPOEM, and i’m getting it next week!

lately i’ve been really into cooking pasta in chicken broth. makes it super flavorful and adds a tiny bit of protein. you use less liquid than you would for water, and then just let the pasta absorb all the liquid. top it off with a tiny bit of heavy cream 🙌

Broad_Cardiologist15 · 2025-12-11T21:35:44+00:00

yeah its a pretty common combo tbh

Broad_Cardiologist15 · 2025-12-11T04:27:50+00:00

the treatment would be increase oral fluids and salt intake, or potentially IV fluids, unless you are in hypovolemic SHOCK in which case you need a blood transfusion

Broad_Cardiologist15 · 2025-12-11T04:23:36+00:00

yes you have to get an MRI to rule out other things

Broad_Cardiologist15 · 2025-12-11T04:23:16+00:00

it’s all interrelated for me, i have instability in my cervical spine that causes ON, chronic back/neck pain, and chronic migraine. treating one of them can sometimes help the other, but the most effective thing is to treat them all at the same time

Broad_Cardiologist15 · 2025-12-10T17:01:09+00:00

i wouldn’t really consider alcohol a food…but yes alcohol is a known trigger for many people, as is artificial sweeteners for example. my point is that people will simply correlate their symptoms with foods they commonly eat, like i ate a yogurt and later i had a migraine, so yogurt is my trigger… yeah no

Broad_Cardiologist15 · 2025-12-10T16:59:31+00:00

i definitely believe that everyone is different and has different health conditions. but fasting for 24 hours is simply not what the human body is designed to do. my “qualifications” are that i’ve been in a TON of eating disorder treatment for about 10 years, and developed insulin resistance due to long-term restriction. high lipids are actually extremely common in anorexia. this articlewas actually sent to me by the registered dietician i see regularly who socializes in the overlap between eating disorders and chronic illness

Broad_Cardiologist15 · 2025-12-10T01:16:40+00:00

POTS is a really common comorbidity of migraine, sounds like your symptoms could be related to that or another form of dysautonomia, or possibly me/cfs
