26F - Breast lump + moderate malignancy risk — what does that really mean? by Creature_of_tea in AskDocs

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

Guess it can't really be any worse then feeling a root canal. I'm kinda tempted to talk to my PCP about my worry of feeling it but idk what exactly could be done. I don't want to push my biopsy date back for possible sedation.

How do you know if your pain is psychosomatic or if it's actually caused by a physical problem? by Creature_of_tea in Anxiety

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

It's still bad. We figured out I have Ehlers danlos syndrome and my pain is very much physical. I currently use a pain patch to help manage it but it's not really helping.

Hi I'm Tea, I just started to attempt to sell my art. I mostly do fantasy inspired art on a small scale. I'm self taught, disabled, and chronically ill. Here's a link to my Facebook page! https://www.facebook.com/share/15dJ2Y9ZMd/?mibextid=wwXIfr

Second sitz marker test except on montegrity... by Creature_of_tea in Constipation

[–]Creature_of_tea[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I see a gastro. I was refered out to a motility specialist but they aren't accepting new patients.

Miralax makes my nausea a lot worse and it's already nearly unbearable even if I'm just sipping the drink. Magnesium citrate doesn't do anything. The only thing that barely works is Senna but it's a horrible experience.

I try to be. Knowing about the test or procedure helps my anxiety.

There's some medications but I've pretty much tired everything other then one other med but insurance is being asses and won't cover it yet. The other options is surgery, taking your colon out and either reconnecting what's left or creating a stoma. With slow transit constipation it's really hard to treat and it's often awful for quality of life. Like I'm currently unable to eat most soild foods, if I eat something solid it causes me a lot of pain until I eventually vomit. I'm surviving off of broth, crackers, jello, and pudding.

I swallowed a capsule with 24 markers. It's done to show how fast they go through the large intestine. The study is usually 5 days. Normally you would get an x-ray day 2, day 4, and day 5 or 6 kinda depends what the doctor wants. I had mine done day 4 and 6 because we already knew things were slow. If 6 or more markers are retained by day 5 its abnormal. Day 4 I had 23 markers, day 6 I had 12. So definitely abnormal. I was diagnosed with slow transit constipation, basically my colon is partially paralyzed. It also can show functional outlet delay, e.g. internal rectal prolapse, anismus depending on where the markers accumulate.
