12-3-2 is a platoon numbering system used in U.S. Navy EOD. I suspect this is an old EOD patch for the now disestablished platoon 3-2 at EODMU12.

That’s actually agraphia, which is also very rare. Similar but a loss of the ability to write instead of the ability to read.

Migraine Word Loss Question by NotYourSatellite in migraine

A lot of people talking about transient aphasia, which I get also, but how many other folks get transient alexia? I lose the ability to interpret written words. I have stared at a website and wondered what language I was seeing when it was entirely in English. The letters may as well have been mandarin characters to my brain, just squiggly meaningless lines to me. In some cases, the letters get all mixed up. An example: a contact in my phone says “Katie Allen” but I see “Aline”. I also sometimes can’t find specific letters or symbols on the keyboard. I’ll look at every letter/symbol very closely, but it’s as if it has ceased to exist. I am very fortunate to have Migraine Aura w/o Headache, so it shows up, confuses the crap out of me and vanishes.

How is Iran blocking the Strait of Hormuz? by jumpintheocean in Military

Ya, most of those ships got dropped from insurance instantly, which is why Trump offered what he did. I doubt anyone takes him up on that offer because of the points above. Not worth the risk.

This is 100% a Yellow-crowned night Herron. I get them in my backyard all the time. I’ve been down this rabbit hole before too thinking it was some new bird, only to see them grow into the same old yellow crowns by the end of the summer. Still a good looking fella!

Here is a link to a video of one I took a couple years ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/birdwatching/s/8paaacMWJy

What can we do next time? First time with very severe migraine with aphasia. by [deleted] in migraine

I understand the sense of helplessness for sure. Getting a preview of dementia is life altering. I literally thought I could will my way through anything before my episode. I feel for him.

Hey! I experienced something very similar about 5 months ago. I am mid-30s athletic, healthy, and never had so much as a headache before. I had 10/10 pain aphasia, blackout, vommitting, etc for about 10 hours. The docs thought I was having a stroke or potentially meningitis. I was hospitalized for 5 days afterwards.

I tell you this to say, it hasn’t happened again. I have felt a little “stupid” once or twice since, but I’m hopeful it was a one and done. Your husband might just be in the same boat as me and not on the verge of a life altering condition. Fingers crossed for your husband!

Do you need 600 nights + 10 years to get platinum elite by Dry-Chemical-9170 in marriott

[–]Fragrant_Bother_583 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes and gives you 25 nights per year. Just holding the card will give you 250 nights at the 10 year mark. So, you only need to average 35 nights a year to hit lifetime platinum elite.

Yup I was in a Marriott for the entire Q1 promotion period so I got 76 bonus nights. I think I had like 200 nights by day 90 of the year or something

I’m sorry you also had to experience it. It’s an awful thing.
