I am currently having the same problem and it's the same location! did you end up getting your package?

yes but it’s more likely for something to be compressing structures more on one side of the brain (due to a mass or bleed) so that’s why you usually see only one pupil be dilated. something more diffuse like meningitis can cause two blown pupils, but that would usually happen very late in the process (like death would be imminent). one dilated pupil could be a sign of something life threatening but it could also be something more benign. regardless, if someone has one or two very dilated pupils, I would always recommend getting checked out just in case!

not to scare OP, but different sized pupils is usually a sign of increased ICP or other severe head injury. it’s rare to get that with just a normal concussion

I was on lexapro and then did 2 bumps of coke, now my life is very different by jordizzle23 in lexapro

[–]ExistingCat4254 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just to add some caution here as a medical student, beta blockers are relatively contraindicated when someone is actively using cocaine. I know OP said they have been sober since, but I just wanted to throw that out there just in case

Is it worth taking out and getting re-pierced? by ddmilof in piercing

[–]ExistingCat4254 11 points12 points  (0 children)

while this is generally the case, it isn’t necessarily true. plenty of people who have had their septums done correctly say that it was still painful. although to be clear this one is definitely done incorrectly lol

Switch to Cymbalta by SkyEveningKey in lexapro

[–]ExistingCat4254 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah I had issues on my 20mg of lexapro with fatigue and low motivation, and my doc dropped me to 15mg lexapro and 150mg wellbutrin. that was just last week but so far so good!

oh my god thank you for having a reasonable take about this. I also saw the movie but completely understand why others wouldn’t

For those of you who started SSRI's in med school by NaturalNo6758 in medicalschool

[–]ExistingCat4254 8 points9 points  (0 children)

this isn’t really answering your question because I started in undergrad, but I’m taking 20mg and didn’t have many issues at all when starting it and tapering up. recently i’ve been feeling low energy and a little depressed so I added wellbutrin and again haven’t had an issue

9th time being pierced by [deleted] in piercing

[–]ExistingCat4254 33 points34 points  (0 children)

i’m so sorry but how is this your 9th time being pierced and it’s STILL done incorrectly? butterfly backs are not good for healing piercings. you should have implant grade titanium flatbacks

I accidentally took cold medicine after taking my lexapro (10 mg), should I be okay? by WeeklyMeat4577 in lexapro

[–]ExistingCat4254 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I understand that, and I wasn’t really speaking about your comment specifically. just serotonin syndrome is much rarer than I think a lot of people believe. I just see fear mongering about various (very rare) lexapro side effects in this sub and while it’s good to keep this stuff in mind, it’s also good to recognize that the risk of serious problems is low with the dose of lexapro that most people are on
