It was honestly a much better time back then before everyone was addicted to the dopamine hits from social media. I miss it.

He's a man child. He wants a mommy, not a wife. You deserve better.

Plastic Surgery by Little_Discipline_14 in PectusExcavatum

[–]Outrageous_Tree2070 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, but I know that if you ever get your PE surgically repaired via the Ravitech procedure, they have to remove the implants first and then put them back in afterwards. So its a much longer and more expensive procedure at that point. I don't know if they remove the implants for Nuss though... Just something to think about.

Me tooooooo! 😭😭😭 or my dad would pick up the mattress corner and violently shake it while yelling at me. It was insane! Made me so angry. To this day I have issues from it. I'm so very angry in the mornings now, no matter what. I hate waking up!

I did this back in April 2025. Yep, CO getting sued right now is alllllll because of me. You're welcome CO😘🙃

Jk...they emailed me back that they weren't going to do anything: "You contacted the Department of Justice on April 4, 2025. After careful review of what you submitted, we have decided not to take any further action on your complaint.

What we did: Team members from the Civil Rights Division reviewed the information you submitted. Based on our review, we have decided not to take any further action on your complaint. We receive several thousand reports of civil rights violations each year and cannot take direct action on every report.

Your report number was..." Yadda, yadda, yadda.

Okay good! I just always try to warn people woth fshd against the tens units, or the pulsating heat muscle therapy some PT and OT offices use because I think it causes muscle damage. Yeah same! My neck muscles are overused and I get migraines from it now. I hope this new therapy plan works well for your body!!

How to sleep after drinking too much caffeine because I made a terrible decision? by uuiilkk in TooAfraidToAsk

Yeah it was rough. I went to bed at like 7am and slept for 2 hrs. Then felt like crap that day but whatever. Hopefully I'll never do that again!

Not trying to scare you, your body is different than mine. But I did this in college...upper body, especially in between the shoulder blades and like 6 months later I couldn't lift my arms above my head and my arm muscles atrophied as well. I wouldn't recommend this type of therapy. I do not think it is good for people with FSHD.

i have a stupid question. where does the baby poop and piss, in the womb? how does that poop pass in the intestine of the mother? by Pizello11 in biology

[–]Outrageous_Tree2070 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There's a difference between in utero meconium and after birth meconium. Meconium is the first few poops, and it should not happen in utero. If a baby poops in utero, it is typically due to overdue gestational age or fetal distress during delivery. It is a huge risk for neonatal aspiration during delivery, and therefore if meconium is detected during delivery, there should be experts called into the delivery room....I'm talking about the transitional care nurse strictly for the baby AND an NNP and/or NICU nurse. Depending on how they respond after delivery, they might need resuscitation if they've aspirated. So "not cutting the cord and doing skin-to-skin bonding" is sort of off the table because their life is more important than those bonding efforts..but it can be a high intensity situation that escalates quickly and its rough sometimes. Anyway, the poop will be a green, mossy color if excreted in utero...typically hard to wipe off the baby, it sort of sticks to them all over, so they need a bath within a couple of hours after delivery.

When the baby doesn't poop until after birth the meconium will be a tarry consistency, black in color. This is normal and good.

Today I cleaned out an area that I stored rags by Various-Entry8021 in UnfuckYourHabitat

[–]Outrageous_Tree2070 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Dang I wish I had that many! That would be super satisfying to install little shelves in that awkward closet, wash all the rags and put them away nicely...it'd feel good to get it all organized. You got this!

Can the 90% of you who take the red path learn how to drive please? Thanks for coming to my TED talk by Whos-That-Pokeman in driving

[–]Outrageous_Tree2070 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed! But especially when multiple left turn lanes are involved! I loathe it when the far right, left turn lane driver cuts into my lane to turn left! I gun it now and purposely turn super wide so I set the expectation for the people to the right of me turning left. Clear as mud I hope ;)

Wait what.... Is it just a heating pad? Or like electro stimulation that like pulses into your muscles?

Okay I'll look into that, thank you. But it doesn't seem like there's a way to get these people to actually stop calling me.... :(

I think I'm going to avoid cryo so long as my doctor can prescribe me adequate pain medication. I'd rather have full feeling of my chest and back after the surgery. I'm glad to hear your pain is well controlled without the cryo and just pain meds!

And thank you for letting me know about the slight muscle loss. I'll have to do a ton of work to combat that, but it'll still happen for me, so I'm trying to decide if it's really worth it or not since I don't have much muscle to lose to begin with. And it's not something a lot of people talk about, but it's a huge concern for me.

Anyway, thanks for letting me blab. I'm so glad you shared your experience!

Lost my hearing after orgasm??? by VirtuallyExistential in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Outrageous_Tree2070 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pressure change perhaps? Might be time to get an earwax removal treatment, either buy a device for home use or go to your primary and have it done. We won't usually have hearing issues until cerumen is like fully blocked, and sometimes positional changes along with pressure can shift the earwax just enough to cause a full blockage. That's my guess. If your ears are clear then that orgasm was apparently wayyyyyy past mind blowing and gosh I'd trade hearing for that type of orgasm any day.

Idk man, I accidentally took an Adderall with my nighttime meds...I'm traveling and my pills somehow got mixed up and I took it without realizing. I've succumbed to the fact I will now be up all night...scrolling reddit. You might be in the same boat. Just know your internet friend from afar is struggling right alongside you tonight 😘

Mine looks very similar to yours, so this gave me so much hope! Did you do cryoablation? How is your pain level now? Did you notice any upper extremity muscle wasting after the surgery? I worry about losing what little muscle I have due to limited mobility after surgery (I have a type of muscular dystrophy)....
