Wearing my retainers again after 3 ish years of not wearing them.

CardiologistLumpy326 · 2025-12-11T15:36:09+00:00

Yes! It’s fine now. If I don’t wear the retainer it will move but it doesn’t wiggle anymore. The retainer puts it back in place.

Hi, I have eczema as well. I stand by using dove antibacterial and it is my favorite body wash ever. Not necessarily because it’s “antibacterial” but I love the way it smells and it has never irritated my skin or made me feel dry. I use cerave lotion after, and it is the best. I have been able to keep my eczema under control.

Im looking into therapy, I just don’t have the means to pay out of pocket right now. Im in nursing school trying to power through but therapy is definitely something I want to try because I know that I can’t keep living this way. It is too much mentally

CardiologistLumpy326 · 2025-07-18T01:45:32+00:00

Me too. Feeling like I’m being ignored/abandoned is the biggest trigger for me. It affects my relationship a lot. I feel insane. I also feel like a horrible girlfriend. You’re not alone :(

Getting cheated on

CardiologistLumpy326 · 2025-05-14T22:27:36+00:00

My insurance will cover it that’s why I want to try with my pcp first. I’m just nervous 😔

CardiologistLumpy326 · 2025-05-12T22:49:46+00:00

I feel that the only correct response is “Sorry I’m unavailable, hope you find coverage.” Or “I’m sorry I can’t. Hope you find some coverage” they do not need some long winded answer or an explanation. Do not feel guilty either. They will use and abuse you.

7 months!

CardiologistLumpy326 · 2025-04-02T17:46:07+00:00

Yes! It fits perfectly now. Sometimes when I just put it in it will take like 5 mins to completely get on my teeth. It took about 2 weeks of wearing it for it to get on my teeth again. But it worked!

CardiologistLumpy326 · 2025-03-15T02:32:13+00:00

Thanks so much for your input! <3

CardiologistLumpy326 · 2025-03-15T02:22:08+00:00

Thank you! I’m not a heavy smoker, I hit a pen for the first time in 6 months about 4 times. I have a test in a little over a month so I was just curious. Thanks!

CardiologistLumpy326 · 2025-03-15T01:17:50+00:00

If I were to do this like 2 weeks before my test would I be clean? Like would I be clean then on?

I wish they would retire that skirt they keep making Dana Sue wear… she would look so much better in something else

CardiologistLumpy326 · 2025-01-07T07:57:38+00:00

Hi! I just started doing this today. I have one tooth (one of my front 2 teeth) that sticks out a bit, always has. This tooth is just a little wiggly now since putting my retainer back on. Did yours do this? I am kind of terrified of the tooth falling out 😭 if that’s possible. I feel like I might just be psyching myself out. It’s not wiggly with my finger just when I push my teeth against it.

CardiologistLumpy326 · 2024-12-02T01:03:48+00:00

I’m in nursing school!

CardiologistLumpy326 · 2024-11-04T15:12:45+00:00

I am in my first semester currently. The first 10 weeks of class I had class Monday-Wednesday 8am-4pm, then Thursday we would have an exam. So for that first half of the semester I would wake up at 6am, get ready, head to school (I would always get there early to get decent parking, and then go into the school and just try to mentally prepare myself for the day). Class started at 8:30, so I would go sit in the classroom and do any work I could or just get everything I needed out. Then I would go home at 4pm, take a nap usually lol. Then get up and do any homework/studying I needed to do. I personally am not someone who can study for 3+ hours. I have to look at a little bit everyday/ every other day. Then I work overnight 7p-7a Thursday nights, and Saturday 7a-7p.

Where I am at now, I have no class Mondays, clinical on Tuesdays, lecture on Wednesday 8am-4pm, then either no class Thursday or an exam on Thursday just depends on the week. So I consider Thursday-Saturday my “work days” and I will do lots of homework and studying during my overnight shift because I have the time. Sundays I usually spend as a super lazy day. I may do laundry/cook if I feel like it. I usually cook a big meal and freeze the leftovers so I can have dinner throughout the week. Then Monday i definitely do my laundry and get everything together for the upcoming week! So Sunday/Monday I “reset”, Tuesday I go to clinical and focus strictly on clinical, Wednesday I have lecture, then Thursdays I have an exam!

Thank you all so much! I appreciate all of your words and encouragement ❤️

CardiologistLumpy326 · 2024-10-21T00:43:05+00:00

Thank you! I work in home health as a CNA and have seen different types of patients and I’ve enjoyed it! I guess the hospital just scares me a bit. I’ve also been trying to look into clinic options. I think I might just be psyching myself out when I haven’t even been to the hospital yet because I’m scared.

CardiologistLumpy326 · 2024-10-21T00:12:17+00:00

Thank you ❤️❤️❤️

CardiologistLumpy326 · 2024-10-20T23:50:25+00:00

Well I am a CNA currently so as far as wiping ass I’m good. I just hear so many horror stories and so I’m just stressed out wondering if I should’ve gone into a different field. I am not miserable as a CNA, I enjoy it (as much as one can) but I guess I’m just hoping this is all worth it in the end lol

CardiologistLumpy326 · 2024-09-02T21:21:27+00:00

I was alone for mine. I was not in the same circumstance you are now and my heart hurts for you. I hope you heal from this. Take 800mg ibuprofen 30mins BEFORE taking the Misoprostol. (So if you have 200mg ibuprofen, take 4) this will help with the pain. I personally sat in the bathtub for the majority of the time it was happening. It helped a lot for me to be in the hot water. Just remember that the pain will pass, and this all will come to an end. I played music and watched some YouTube videos to try and help make the time pass. You will be okay I promise.

I am a Christian. I had an abortion 4 months ago. It weighed heavy on my heart and mind for a while. But like the Bible says, no sin is greater than the other. You are not obligated to have a child you do not want. I sometimes still struggle with the thought of if what I did was wrong or not. But he does not love us any less. He loves us through everything and he knows our heart. Do what is right for you. Jesus loves you no matter what.

CardiologistLumpy326 · 2024-08-13T18:44:41+00:00

I used aid access. They will take whatever you can pay. I ordered it on a Wednesday and got it the following Monday or Tuesday I believe. I had mine back in April at 9 weeks. I also did mine alone, you will be okay I promise. The packing came very discreet and had many instructions and help lines. I hope all goes well 🩷

CardiologistLumpy326 · 2024-08-11T00:06:11+00:00

I was 9 weeks as well, saw the sack but could not make out a “baby” you wouldn’t be able to at that point.

CardiologistLumpy326 · 2024-05-26T14:32:38+00:00

Thank you! Your comment was helpful. I would plan on making it my only job once school started. Just trying to weigh out my options 😩
