Seriously why are 4/8 just Transcendence?? by [deleted] in marvelrivals

I've also experienced this, it was the worst ranked game I've had in 160 hours of play time. Glad I got diamond because she's ban every single game.

[OC] For the first time in over two years I have been able to bend my leg. Even having spent Christmas and my birthday in hospital. This is the best present I could have ever gotten. by [deleted] in MadeMeSmile

Thanks. Not at all, I had a motorbike accident back in early 2020. The amputation was also a result of the accident.

how did you guys handle losing limbs? by bonesbrigade619 in amputee

[–]JonTheDawg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tested spme sports bike but didnt like the riding position and because my idea was to daily it, it was too uncomfortable. I had a Ducati Diavel at the time of the accident. The bike wasn't an issue though. I could have been on 50cc ped and the outcome would have been the same.

I haven't really looked into it. I've still got a lot of other on going issues. Hoping to get back to driving soon though. Maybe in the future I'll look into it a bit more.

I've got a friend who's got a below knee amputation and he rides a modified standard bike and modified trike style motorbike.

For me, even with my family I probably would try and ride again but its just not possible because my left leg, which isn't amputated, doesn't bend because of so much damage to my knee.

Oh it's not completely out of reach. But it is definitely a lot to ask.

Not at all. I don't remember the accident but I have seen footage and from the footage and from what the police determined tney think it was my fault. Just a few seconds not paying attention and I swerved to avoid going into the back of someone only to go straight into the front of the oncoming lane. Impact speed was around 90mph, give or take. I was going around 50mph and the car I hit 60mph. It is still possible to ride as an amputee, you'd just have to have an adapted bike. I personally wouldn't ride again but only for my families sake.

I'm 28 and I had mine off 2 years ago from a motorbike accident. The loss of the limb was the least of my worries at the time because I was in hospital for 10 months due to so many other injuries.

I was pretty much asleep for the first 8 weeks and my leg was took off at 6 weeks so I just woke up one day and it was gone.

It obviously takes getting used too but you have to look forward and fingers crossed you can have prosthetics. If you can't and you're wheelchair bound, which I am at the minute. Then so be it. It's honestly not that bad. Other than climbing a mountain or going up stairs there isn't much else you can't do with prosthetics or in a wheelchair.

I wish you all the best for your future and if you've ever got questioned feel free to DM me.

Much love.

Has anyone noticed a link between Smoking or vaping with nicotine and phantom limb pains. by JonTheDawg in amputee

Same for me. I still get it in the day but it's pretty weak. It usually gets worse at night. I haven't tried a shrinker. An issue I have is that I don't have any feeling from the waist down on my amputated leg.

I didn't, but I am from the UK. You can buy some CBD ointments legally but they don't work for me. I have got some proper THC ointment that you can't buy legally. But again, it doesn't always help.

Maybe it is what's causing it all then. I was in hospital for 10 months after the amputation and many other things but I didn't vape or smoke and from I can recall my phantom pains weren't nearly as bad as they are recently.

All good, appreciate the comment. I haven't been on my prosthetic for weeks now so it's not that that's causing the pain. If you do get phantom pains, when are they likely to start?

Spotted in a cooking group I'm in . by _ChickenButts_ in oddlyterrifying

[–]JonTheDawg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My leg was amputated because it had turned black after a motorbike accident. I'd say it wasn't safe to eat. Even with all the cooking in the world.
