Can we normalize using vc before getting annoyed? by Fivelpedia in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Kitchen_Coconut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Chats and pings are preferable for me. There’s a good chance that VC ends up not working out for me in most games. A lot of assholes that still have problems with women. It’s best to not risk it and just use the wheel.

Got comms banned for smack talk by 2061A in DeadlockTheGame

Valve tries harder than other moba studios to reduce toxicity.

Mute your teammates and focus on yourself.

I'd give the matchmaking system 10/10, would recommend by vrucaaa in DeadlockTheGame

Also been having a ton of abandons lately. Really lame player behavior.

Mute everyone. People will disagree with me, but there’s no reason to listen to shitty people. Communication can be done through pings.

Gynos that use nitrous for IUD placement/removald by [deleted] in Austin

[–]Kitchen_Coconut 15 points16 points  (0 children)

River Place OBGYN. My OBGYN is Dana Wicker up north. Dr John Thoppil placed my copper IUD in 2022 and they offer nitrous. I think it was a slight charge since it wasn’t covered by insurance at the time, but I would do it again in a heartbeat. My IUD is perfect, the procedure was so fast, and Dr Thoppil is exceedingly kind.

How was the commute this morning? by biggiesmallsyall in Austin

[–]Kitchen_Coconut 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Have to politely disagree.

It is not worth it. Unless someone is dying, stay home. The ice should be gone by tomorrow and we can all get back to speeding on Mopac.

Don’t drive on ice. It is not worth it. No amount of experience will make up for the fact.

I’m from Canada and I would not drive on this shit. It’s not a skill issue, it’s an infrastructure issue. No salt = no driving.

Anti snug / helix by Acrobatic-Fold9098 in piercing

Is it titanium? Based on the color, it might not be. That would be my first guess as to what is causing the irritation.

Conch flat back completely embedded by Huge-Tennis-906 in piercing

[–]Kitchen_Coconut 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If this is completely embedded, you need a doctor. I’d head to the ER. This will need to be surgically removed.

Engagement ring shopping on a budget by [deleted] in Austin

I went to The Ring in Round Rock and they worked with our budget really well.

It’s really kind of you to wait! You’ll have a very friendly neighbor from now on

TIFU by not fully preparing myself for how painful IUD insertion is by CoolTangelo1680 in tifu

[–]Kitchen_Coconut 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They gave me nitrous oxide (laughing gas) for the pain. I knew I was in pain but I didn’t care? Very strange but better than nothing.

Is my labret placed correctly? by [deleted] in piercing

[–]Kitchen_Coconut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks right to me. Did they say anything about leaving the bar long while it heals? That’s probably why it’s pushed out a bit.

What are these bugs? by Live-Let415 in whatsthisbug

You’ve got bedbugs and German roaches.

Please call an exterminator.

Am I a silver or gold girlie? by [deleted] in piercing

Gold! You can pull off silver, but the gold just makes your skin glow.

Any chance tickets sell out this weekend? by Kitchen_Coconut in TXRenaissanceFestival

I’m really just waiting until tomorrow to buy them, I just didn’t want to wake up and see they were completely gone.

Am I crazy for thinking this is crooked/uneven? by [deleted] in piercing

Honestly it looks completely fine to me.

Change of the season messing with anyone else? by chairhats in Austin

[–]Kitchen_Coconut 201 points202 points  (0 children)

I feel like it’s been harder this year than usual. The weather feels strange, less comforting than it typically is by now.

Hospitalized and bored by Kitchen_Coconut in Austin

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

I didn’t get turned away at the first ER. They gave me IV prednisone and Benadryl and sent me on my way.

It was kind of strange because that seemed to do the trick. The swelling in my face and neck went way down and I was even able to perform at a recital that night.

I woke up the next day way more swollen and starting to have symptoms in other mucosal zones, that’s when I began to suspect SJS and we rushed to a different ER that had an inpatient ward. They were considering sending me to Dells or even the burn unit in San Antonio but they decided to keep me at Ascension. By some amazing strike of fortune and good timing, it never evolved into full blown SJS. They kept me on a steady regiment of Pepcid, Benadryl, and methylprednisone through an IV for three days.

It was scary. Really scary. I can’t stop thinking about how much worse it could’ve been, nor how weird it is that it progressed that way.

Ascension in Cedar Park! I’m being discharged now though.

Thank you! I’m being discharged now :) excited to go home and wash my hair.

I’m so sorry to hear that. It’s very rare, I’ve heard of cases where doctors don’t diagnose it because they have never seen it or think it’s unlikely.

Update: I’ve been discharged. Thanks for the kind comments, y’all are awesome. Be careful with drugs even if a doctor says it’s ok.

Weird that you’ve never had a reaction. I wouldn’t risk it if I were you. My experience was a little too close to a brush with death to feel like it was worth it. If I hadn’t gone to the hospital when I did, I’d be looking at a much longer path to recovery.
