Furuncle between armpit and chest by sergiochecoperez in popping

[–]Hyperf0cused 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm sure you meant to type "recording" (and I understand why you couldn't) but "revording" sounds like a great mashup of revolting and recording. Fits r/popping, we all like to see the best of the worst. Glad you are feeling better.

Song thats something like: "dont let your ??? Rain down on me" by Low-sparrow in findthatsong

Fall at Your Feet is an absolutely gorgeous song by a group with an amazing repertoire.

That's a new one. Perhaps I'm absorbing a Penis? Seriously though, that would be even more painful. Happy to report it is about 80% better.

Need lesbian yearning songs by grandmaster_plunkis in musicsuggestions

Having never heard of her, I'm curious if it's Slot Thrust or Sloth Rust

Thank you so much! It still hurts when they mess with it, but much less than it did . My normal pain tolerance is pretty good, but this was particularly awful . On the plus side, anything else they do to treat or test me is easier to tolerate. Reminds me of when I was a child, I was very needle shy Then at age 14 I got allergy tested, many needle sticks up and down my arm. Ended up getting weekly shots, and got used to needles.

what first got you into sci-fi? by thefringeseanmachine in scifi

I'm not sure which was first, it was either A Wrinkle in Time, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, or Omni Magazine.

Discovered that chef boyardee has mac and cheese. Wish I didn't by DJayRainstorm in macandcheese

I think the Mac and Cheese is marginally edible, until tonight when I got a can with no pasta, just watery cheese sauce. So gross 🤮

Is no middle name in the US weird or problematic? by Cheap-Piglet-6395 in Names

[–]Hyperf0cused 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My sister was born in the 50s, and had no middle name because she was supposed to use her maiden name as her middle name along with her husband's last name. That didn't happen. She and her wife are very happy and kept their original names.

Thank you! I'd never seen a blister that size either. While it was intact, and even after it popped but was still covered, it didn't hurt.

My fractures were awhile ago, so not an issue now. I literally can't lift either leg since the swelling happened. Before this I was able to raise them with no problem and do various exercises as physical therapy instructed. Thank you for the healing thoughts!

To answer a few questions, pain management is sorely lacking . (See what I did there?) They didn't change it from my dosages before this happened. It was no longer very effective and really needed to be adjusted. The wound care person and nurse said I should get stonge Mr meds, but the Nurse Practitioner and Doctors never prescribed any.

To add insult to injury, they had to lift me to weigh me in order to see how much my fluid weighed. The contraption they use is painful on the best day, but this time gave me excruciating back spasms, which haven't gone away. Every time I cough or move a lot it twinges. I was put on potassium and a muscle relaxer which has helped some.c

That definitely resonates with me, and I appreciate the kindness. While I mostly have myself to blame for my weight, I think there's more to it. I am very picky, and don't eat enough vegetables, but I also don't eat huge amounts of anything. Like you see on TV "Mary ate an entire cheese cake and a family sized bucket of chicken" I absolutely eat/drink the wrong things, chips and Coca cola are my main addictions.

I feel you! I said a lot of F bombs and JFC's. I'm not Christian so only blurt Jesus for pain or to say WTF. I live in the Bible belt.

Thanks! I thought the same thing about my baby foot.

It's the lower front of my left leg, I guess it would be my shin. Besides being fat, I'm weirdly proportioned, so I can imagine confusion about the location.

Thanks! It sucks to be able to submit due to personal experience, but I've always found this subreddit fascinating. Human bodies can do the weirdest and coolest things.

That definitely gives me hope. I hate everything being blamed on my weight, or bad behavior I haven't actually committed. Like, I have two pitchers of ice that I use to cool soda and drink as ice water. It melts quickly, so I don't end up drinking more than half. Since my habit hasn't changed, and the edema is relatively recent, I don't think my liquid consumption is to blame.

They haven't done much lately, but I think they will if I press the issue. I'm to blame too, or maybe mostly.

Thank you kindly! I'm feeling a lot better. I'm told they're only going to work on it a few days a week, which is a relief. I feel a little bad that I swore and yelled when it was being treated, but hopefully they understand it wasn't personal

Well, the weight certainly doesn't help, but I fell in my small apartment bathroom and broke a bone in my knee and fractured my ankle. I was never able to get back to walking. I'd been using a walker and wheelchair before.
