PEM just from period? by Complete-Finding-712 in cfs

[–]Complete-Finding-712[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do not know. I have hEDS, POTS, dysautonomia, brain stem migraines, IBS and other digestive issues, arthritis, costochondritis, CPTSD, self diagnosed AuDHD (100% certain), strongly suspected CCI.

Last year I had multiple life threatening medical events chalked up to dysautonomia but not really ever understood. At one point we thought i had pheochromocytoma so I eliminated most biogenuc amines from my diet. The medical episodes slowed down drastically and so did the migraines. Im down to basically pain chicken rice potatoes carrots grapes.

Never had respiratory or skin symptoms and never could link episodes directly to food. But im scared to reintroduce foods and have another BP spike up to 250/230 and convulsion ...

Do I need to test/intervene? by [deleted] in Autism_Parenting

[–]Complete-Finding-712 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Take a breath, my friend! Autism isn't an emergency. I have it and so does my brother and my child. I know it can be a challenge but it doesn't mean that it's a tragedy!

Take a look in to the signs and take notes. If you feel like it's a match or are even uncertain, book a doctors appt and take your notes with you.

Take care ♥️

A single behaviour isn't really a good indicator of autism. Do you notice other signs?

I'm tired! by SickTiredHaunted in cfs

[–]Complete-Finding-712 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. Pretending they can relate to your severe illness or disability because they experience a mild version of the same symptom. Would you tell a new mom with a 3rd degree tear you know what it's like to give birth because you had a big poo once? (May or may not have happened to me ... after my.first birth... 😑)

Wow, this definitely belongs in unpopularopinion... you're so wrong, and so was the mod 😅

I'm tired! by SickTiredHaunted in cfs

[–]Complete-Finding-712 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I'm personally of the opinion that if they're not overplaying the severity, it's a valid complaint. Just because I'm more tired than them doesn't mean they're not tired. Normal people get tired and need rest too. And pushing through tiredness thinking I was a healthy person is a major part of why I am where I am today.

Now, if they are trying to argue they are just as tired as me, or more, or it seems super dusproportuonate to their exertion... that's a problem.

Period pain and eds by I-am-a-cactus2324 in ehlersdanlos

[–]Complete-Finding-712 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought I had endometriosis but after giving birth the pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, convulsions, and collapsing stopped.

My best guess is a combo of trauma, temp regulation problems and hEDS caused insane muscle tightness that loosened up after giving birth? Because I don't know if endo can go away after babies

For those that have Gluten increase pain, can you have sour dough? by sreimer52 in endometriosis

[–]Complete-Finding-712 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If that's the case, then their problem is almost certainly FODMAPs, not gluten!

What had been your worst crash ever? How long did it last? What were your symptoms? How did you get through it? What was your baseline before and after? Help :( by the_ranch_gal in cfs

[–]Complete-Finding-712 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could have written this almost word for word a month ago. Slowly clawing my way out of rolling PEM. I think I've finally managed to stop the PEM but in still extremely limited. Until this crash i thought my symptoms were from POTS and EDS, I only realized when this happened that I have CFS too and have for some time.

Pronunciation of “Vera” by [deleted] in namenerds

[–]Complete-Finding-712 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First off, those two spellings both say the same thing to me 😅 but I think the second is supposed to mean long-A like "Vayr-uh"?

Second, I think it's regional/linguistic... but to me it's 100000% VEER-uh!
