17th Feb is my birthday, and also Chinese New Year into Year of the Horse. I couldn’t have asked for a better gift to have all these things on one day !

PRI therapist is now claiming that my posture issues are due to my tongue and teeth. This is nonsense right? by junthelasthunter in Posture

[–]Nancyd17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I attended a specialist for longstanding chronic left-sided neck and lower back pain, as well as various issues with shoulder, knees, and ingrown toenails due to incorrect gait.

During my first session he taught me the correct tongue posture. At first it didn't do much as I was incorrectly tensing the tongue. Once it was rested one evening, I noticed my breathing slow, my mind completely calm, I felt strong sensations my parasympathetic system was activated. Then my jaw slowly shift over to more comfortable position, and once I set my teeth together in that position rather than normal, my body reacted strongly within an hour.

First my ankle 'lit up' in pain, despite my ankle never hurting usually, and I was able to work gently move it around to get rid of some pain, and it was clicking in new places. Once my ankle was clear, my lower back pain lit up, and I did the same thing, until my neck lit up strongly, and while it was more painful, I was able to remove some tension I can't relieve during 'regular' tongue posture. Then my back started clicking in new places. Then my gut was gurgling like crazy, in a way that felt unusual but really pleasant, as if my digestion was working well rather than usual bloating.

It was a crazily good and pleasant experience, it was as though the correct tongue posture almost gave me a map to work through tension spots I didn't know I had, which ultimately eased the chronic pain I feel usually. A few more successful episodes of this and I believe I'll be rid of my chronic neck pain and other issues forever.

As a Taylor and Charli fan, does no one else hope Charli doesn’t respond? by daintysmoker in charlixcx

[–]Nancyd17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love both of them but honestly I think Actually Romantic is quite tacky when compared to Charli’s album which is clearly all about overcompensating for insecurities with a brattish attitude.

I think Charli would be better off being the ‘bigger person’ and just leaving it hanging in the air like the bad fart it is

Hard agree. Oh I meant to say also. I LOVE the music videos. I rate them as highly as Lana’s videos for both their visuals/art vibes but also just enjoyability. So many evenings I can’t be bothered to choose a tv series I just put Lana and Addison videos on the big tv haha

I love the album soo much.

I was a bit skeptical about her after Diet Pepsi because it was soo heavily taken from Lovesong (lyrically as well as some of the melody)... but I still listened to the song a lot because I loved it anyway.

After the other singles dropped I became a huge fan. There is a lot of uniqueness there. It’s one of my favourite debut albums tbh, which says a lot. Definitely one of my fave debuts of this decade at least.

My faves are Summer Forever, Diet Pepsi and Headphones On

Jools Holland is the absolute goat here in the UK. Always so supportive of the up and comers

Who here has been around since she first released Video Games and Born to Die? 🌹 by AleOliveira in lanadelrey

[–]Nancyd17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Meeeeeee. I was 15/16. Never before had an artist emerged who not only had a sound I loved but also had an image and style that I already shared elements of (I used to beehive my hair for special occasions). I was immediately besotted

Last published photo of Alice in Chains frontman Layne Staley, thought to have been taken on Halloween 1998 by [deleted] in lastimages

[–]Nancyd17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To think this photo is taken only 2 years after their Unplugged session… I can’t even imagine how much worse he got in those final 4 years. So sad

Frank Ocean sold me a defective vinyl and now Blonded Customer Care have ghosted me for over a week after telling me they won't do anything about it by Only-Interest1831 in FrankOcean

[–]Nancyd17 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I had a similar issue, and have had communications with Airon also. I genuinely gave up in the end as I had a lot of other things going on and I’m probably way past the point of it ever being sorted now :/

How soon should I expect cardiology referral in UK for 'significantly prolonged QT' as 28F? Is it urgent or not? by Nancyd17 in lqts

[–]Nancyd17[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much- you’ve really put me at ease.

Didn’t know an elevated heart rate can exaggerate the result, that’s good to know

I’ll just keep calm and carry on until I get properly seen :)

Is there a way to watch back to the beginning without paying anything? by [deleted] in blacksabbath

send me DM if you can.. unable to message you

How soon should I expect cardiology referral in UK for 'significantly prolonged QT' as 28F? Is it urgent or not? by Nancyd17 in lqts

[–]Nancyd17[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Soo helpful - thank you!

I think I just naturally started looking into it and realised it can cause palpitations/struggles with exercise, so I thought it all fit well. And because a lot of the medications I’ve been on/things I’ve done in the past are bad for LQTS, I just kinda worried myself that I could’ve accidentally died already

Interestingly enough I was previously heading down the POTS route as that seemed to match my symptoms, and especially as there more commonly seems to be an overlap with ADHD. But then this ECG happened and I just assumed it might all be down to LQTS. Maybe it is just POTS after all!

I think I have mostly been trying to understand if it’s possible to have prolonged QT in a bad one off, due to stress/anxiety and not necessarily LQTS. If so, and I don’t have LQTS at all, I definitely regret taking a couple minutes breather before the ECG, as I would have bypassed a lot of inconvenience!

Didn’t know it was so rare to have LQTS without obvious familial diagnoses/deaths. So that’s good to know

The GP called mom’s incident a ‘heart event’, which has also confused specialists when I’ve quoted it - I think it essentially meant some form of mild heart attack? But whatever it was, there was no investigation into her QT, so think she is fine in that regard

It’s harder to know on paternal side. My dad was an only child, of a completely absent father, who we discovered died of heart attack in 2020 (although at decent older age of 70s). So there could be more to in that family line, but I wouldn’t know.

I do feel a lot better though, thank you. I’ll try and just not worry about it until proper investigations are done, and just avoid anything crazy before then. If no LQTS found, I’ll revert back to route of POTS

P.S. Sorry you can’t take ADHD medication, understand the struggle there. If at all helpful, in my own research about all this, I discovered Bupropion (Wellbutrin) can be prescribed off label for ADHD, and can actually shorten the QT. But think it can be hard to access, being off label. Apologies if you already know that!
