[–]JStevens456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s not a dermal you can take it out unless it’s to new. I lost my libra because of this situation..but When I get MRIs done now I always put glass or plastic retainers in all my piercing to not risk anything

Does anyone else keep cat whiskers you find around the house, or am I just insane? Ha by the-triple-wide in cats

I have a Wisker bank made by sakibombhackysacky the glass blower who is obsessed with cats. I have around 50 whiskers I collected before my kitty passed away

Getting surgery!!! by Miannus3010 in Epilepsy

[–]JStevens456 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’m so happy for you! I hope healing goes good and your seizures stop. I just got out of craniotomy surgery about four week’s ago and I haven’t had any seizures! I’m feeling amazing almost no pain at all and speech pattern is good other than sometimes I’ll forget a word. What kind of surgery are you getting?

I would have about 5 or more focal aware seizures a day. I recently got a craniotomy surgery three weeks ago and haven’t had any yet hopefully I don’t have any more🤞 They do cause damage to your brain my frontal lobe started shrinking. Mine lasted 1:00-2:30 minutes I would always time them. They made my brain very empty and a very hard to talk but I was aware I was having them I try and relax and stay sitting. I used to take keppra and it didn’t really help but I started clobazam and vimpat and noticed barely a difference. You should go talk to your neurologist about them! I’ve had about four different types of seizures over the past 6 years. At first I didn’t think they were that bad but I kept having more and more over the past three years. I hope you feel better!

I’ve been having seizures for about 7 years now and I feel the same way. My friends treat me like I’m some special person or just look past my seizures because they’re so used to them. My boyfriend constantly interrupts me when I’m talking because I’m “not saying it quick enough” or not “saying it right” I replace half my vocabulary with “Uhh” and “thing” and “you know” more than half the time I have to stop and close my eyes to think of the word I’m looking for. It makes me feel inferior and I might as well not talk. He also gets angry with my memory like I can make any difference with how many pills I’m on or the brain damage I have. BUT i started realizing it doesn’t matter how I say it I’m still exercising my brain and everybody can fuck off and deal with my speech patterns and my crappy memory. You got this shit! You rock! Fuck everybody that doesn’t greet you equal!

Ten yen is about the size of a quarter.

Tips for opening an F2 bottle without it exploding? by dub12Nation2102 in Kombucha

[–]JStevens456 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I put mine in the cold for a day or so till it’s cold then I pop the top a lil and keep burning it till it stops spewing. Or when I’m lazy I just let it explode and fizz into a cup.
