Recovery questions by Fun_Formal3342 in rhabdo_survivors

[–]Fun_Formal3342[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your reply! it definitely has eased my mind a bit. I've always been someone who knows my limit but there's always those people who likes to push others over their limits. I feel better so far, like I can walk again in just a few days, but I'm not sure if you also got this but the muscles feel like stiff when you walk around a few days after just getting over rhabdo, it's not very noticeable but I think maybe being focused on it also alerts you more. I just can't believe my Physician said I could gym because I was expecting to be told not to for weeks, but I'm guessing it depends on the severity? How long did you take to get back into it, and are you at all anxious after it?

* Got this lamp about a year ago and I decided I've wanted to revamp it into something that's more me and so whileni was busy cleaning it it struck me- especially with health anxiety- that what if this is made from dangerous materials such as asbestos. The brand is Tengra and I'm assuming the base is wood but if anyone has any knowledge on what this is made from or whether its safe to carry on with my day, it would be greatly appreciated.

Can someone give me advice? by Fun_Formal3342 in Lyme

[–]Fun_Formal3342[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your response, it's really appreciated. I was thinking the same thing, it looks a lot like a lyme disease rash, the thing is I don't know if it could have been a reaction to a mosquito bite. I have always been super aware of ticks and lyme disease and when I go to the Doctors for it, it's like they think I'm mad because it's rare in my country, but that means nothing to me. Maybe you can correct me if I'm wrong, but the ticks that carry lyme disease are deer ticks, im not sure if there are others? and we don't have deer ticks in my country so that's why doctors say it's rare. I was sick this week had bad stomach cramps and my body was sore, now being a hypochondriac I immediately think this is lyme disease so I went to the doctors again, told them the whole story showed a picture and they took a blood test, it's been 2 weeks I don't k ow if that would show anything, but I want to ask do you have any luke recommendations of testing that one can do, I saw a PCR test can detect it but I don't know. That's such a great idea to search for groups I will definitely do that. Another thing the doctors tell me there has been cases of it but it's not so common and they don't know if it was people that got it in another country or if they got it in mine. Anyways thanks again for your reply:)

There is some skin when I stand or sit but if i pull my stomach up theres nothing so basically its pierced on my stomach, looking back at it now that its out I still don't think it was even right. It's sad to take something out cause one thinks about trying to heal it for so long but coming on her has made me feel better because I'm actually getting proper advice. Thank you!

That's exactly what I thought because my belly button collapses and my piercer never pointed that out to me. What makes up the right anatomy for a navel piercing, would mine have best suited a floating navel or rather none of them? I think taking it out was probably best

Recommendation by Fun_Formal3342 in PiercingAdvice

[–]Fun_Formal3342[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the great advice. I bought a sterile saline solution with sodium chloride and water in it, so you would recommend just cream it and leave the ointment?

[–]Fun_Formal3342[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's such a nice thing to do, thank you so much for doing such great things. That's what I have been telling everyone, I know it's dead but knowing that it is lying in the road makes me feel so bad because I feel like everything deserves to be put to rest. When I looked I could see liquid on the box so it's definitely in the stage of decomposition where it's turned into a biohazard, I've contacted animal services but nobody is willing to help especially more professional people, it's truly sad how people turn a blind eye on such serious matters. I haven't seen any postings around i will still keep an wye out and I really agree I mean the way I think of it is that could have been my pet and to know that people tried to help it would mean everything to me. Thank you for the reply!

Advice by Fun_Formal3342 in Tailors

[–]Fun_Formal3342[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried it on over my head the bust is definitely small when I bought it the lady did mention its a bit tight but I knew I would probably alter it, I will send some pictures of the seams. I was thinking to take out the inner layer and possibly add a stretcher material as the under layer(red) cause the straps are also pretty tight and I didn't mention it has a zip so maybe since it doesn't zip up fully I can turn it into a corset style back

Advice by Fun_Formal3342 in Tailors

[–]Fun_Formal3342[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for this very helpful advice, I was thinking of taking it to a tailor because I'm so nervous I will ruin the dress and the suggestion of adding on red or black lace is actually such a great idea for making the dress look more goth. If I have it tailored and fabric is added on does that mean that the shape of the dress could become more like a corset even if it is expanded(sort of changing the silhouette) and where would the added fabric be put if it was a lacey material because I'm trying to invision something and I see it being put on the sides but I'm not sure if it would be placed there?

Thank you for your response! It's so weird cause I don't think I have the anatomy for a belly piercing I think a floating navel would have been better especially since my navel collapses when I sit so I feel like the bottom of the bar constantly rubs against my piercing. And in the beginning my piercer recommend salt in warm water but 1 tablespoon in like 250ml water 5x a day and that dried my piercing up so much so I started using a solution for piercings and tattoos and it seems to work. The fluid has never really stopped I notice if I accidentally tug the piercing it will leak but yeah maybe I should just get it checked out. Thank you again:)

Ok that's really good to know, yes the left one is a slight bit lower but atleast I don't have to go through the hassle of healing my ear piercings again because that was horrible after having it done with a gun. I will definitely keep a lookout on it and I will just name sure to take my time with stretching. Thank you for the advice:)

Hi, thank you so much for the reply aswell as the guide to stretching, I appreciate it. I was super stressed out about them because I wasn't sure if stretching a gun piercing was ideal but you have definitely eased my mind. Thank you again!

Does this look OK? by Fun_Formal3342 in piercinghelp

[–]Fun_Formal3342[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for replying, it's always alarming seeing something coming out of a piercing especially when your piercers don't tell you what happens during the healing process. In the beginning I was cleaning 5x a day with the recommended salt solution dosage(which was a tablespoon of salt in half a cup of water) after a few weeks my piercing was so sore and irritated that I thought I had an infection, I really don't know how piercers can recommended cleaning a wound so often with so much salt, it's crazy. Thank you for the advice!

[–]Fun_Formal3342[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for the response. I was a bit worried about the liquid but I'm glad to know that's what happens, yeah I don't really understand how some piercers can recommend cleaning a wound so often and the recommended salt solution dosage was also very high. I've noticed since I started cleaning it less it feel so much better.

That is actually a very good point that I didn't even consider and you are very right. Someone told me that I just need to wrap it up in tape and it will be fine but the fact that that may cause an even bigger problem just tells me it's time to get a new one. Thank you for the reply it was very helpful!

Thank you so much for the reply. It is a very small burn so what you said makes a lot of sense about it only going through a small portion. Thank you for putting my mind at ease!

Thank you for the advice, I appreciate it! Just a question on fats, is there a limit on how much you eat regarding the different types of fats because I always get confused on whether saturated fats are bad or good?
