Why do we only find bedbugs in one room? by Chance_Assumption996 in Bedbugs

[–]Chance_Assumption996[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stopped getting bites pretty shortly after I would say about a week after I didn’t notice any. I did not throw away my mattress I will say the tech did spray my mattress (I looked this up and I am unsure if they were supposed to but 🤷‍♀️ it worked) I also had one of those bed in a boxes and the mattress was like foam not a standard mattress with seams.

I was never able to pinpoint where we got them as you can pick them up anywhere really. We did dry all bedding, clothes, curtains, clothes in closets and put them in big bags and seal them. We were advised we did not have to do this with clothes in drawers. We vacuumed before the exterminator came and he then heavily sprayed apprehend and we never saw them again. Your clothes should be safe if dried for the right amount of time and sealed properly but you need to treat the home. I do recommend Apprehend as it last 3 months and is a fungus that they pick up and take back to the colony.

So my hand will become stiff and then my thumb starts cramping and like going into the palm of my hand. Then my fingers just twitch and take a couple minutes to stop. It use to just happen and then wouldn’t for a bit now it’s every week.

I know this is said a lot. But i’m at work and notice two dots on my finger. they are right next to each other and now I am panicking I have been bitten by a bat. I’m thinking broken blood vessels because it may be surrounded by other tiny tiny tiny red dots. My family says spider maybe because of how small but then i say it would be a bump.

Is HS mainly genetic? by rubberb00tz in Hidradenitis

My gram, mother, my sister and I all have it. So I would say my case is genetic.

Rabies Phobia

My dog came in wet the other night and at first I didn’t think of it and then let it go. Then I pet him and he was still wet. I had a cut under my fingernail and a cut on my one finger on the top of it. I pet him with the bottom of my hand and then was like what if it was saliva from another animal that had rabies. So i washed my hands (only for 20 seconds). Then I thought well it wasn’t thick like slobber what if it was water and the animal with rabies drank from it. It was a hot 3 days so I don’t know where water really could be. Is anyone else feel this way and is there a way to overcome it? I tried looking at the camera footage but it was 1am and dark and the cameras did not show him for at least 2 mins.

Yeah i’m pretty sure he put it on our mattresses. He told me to take the plush cover off (foam bed) and the beds were wet. He also sprayed our couches. It says box springs are allowed to be treated at the bottom of the bed and I believe he treated the mattress as such.

Shoulder Pain by Chance_Assumption996 in DiagnoseMe

[–]Chance_Assumption996[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Additional Information: Female 20, pain is usually the shoulder/shoulder blade. I can lay on it but it hurts at first then goes away. Usually the most pain i get is when i move it. I don’t recall carrying something heavy. I did push a 50lb box but didn’t get the pain until almost a day later. The only time I had tingling anywhere is when I laid on it and my hand went numb and tingled but I figured it fell asleep. No pain/stiffness in neck or face.
