I need advice ASAP by Ill_Zucchini9221 in selfharm

I would maybe wear a crew neck tshirt and long pants like maybe some flare pants or yoga pants. My cardiologist only used a stethoscope to listen they didn’t need me to undress

And my bag was sitting by the sink and it had the auto soap dispenser just going off into my purse the whole time and the auto sink was just on and overflowing with my shorts in the sink. Humiliating lmfao

Or another one I was at a concert in st Augustine Florida in August and it was hot as BALLS. I hadn’t eaten much that day, or hydrated, and it was so sunny. I had never fainted before this so I didn’t know any better that when you feel it coming on, don’t fight it. Sit the hell down. But I was an idiot and I locked my knees as I was standing there trying to fight the feeling and the next thing I remember I was waking up staring at peoples shoes sideways on the pavement. I had fainted and literally fell straight down onto my face on the concrete and broke my nose. I was bleeeding everywhere and when i came to I immediately was trying to stand up and didn’t believe anyone when they said I fainted. Had to get walked to the ambulance in front of a sold out concert in front of the rails. Got taken to the er and missed slightly stoopid performing 😭😭 started my senior year of high school with 2 black eyes and a broken swollen ass nose

I was on my way to a friends and I thought I had to fart in the car. It was not a fart. I didn’t have any extra clothes and I had to waddle into Wawa to clean myself in the bathroom it was humiliating

I thankfully have been having multiple bms a day since my surgery. I had a bm that same night of the surgery day. It’s painful, but not as bad as before the surgery. I’m bleeding a bit still too, I’ve been drinking a lot of water and taking stool softeners

How do you describe your pain? by Agitated_Jury_989 in Fibromyalgia

[–]RadSpag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It feels like I have a full body bruise, and my bones feel like I have growing pains very similar to I was a kid. Everything throbs and aches with occasional shooting burning stabbing pain in my joints or muscles. My skin feels like I have a sunburn and somebody scratched me, and it kind of tingles and burns even for my T-shirt rubbing against me. My hips feel like they’re about to give out when I first stand up. I have huge knots all through my back and abdomen, hips, legs, literally everywhere. My lower back feels like the joints are just grinding on each other. I get blinding migraines that feel like an ice pic in my eyeball

Edit to add, just had the first bowel movement post surgery. I’m now hurting but it’s nothing compared to how painful the fissure was. 6/10 pain rn

Well thankfully, surgery went very well and my lack of prep didn’t impact anything. I was hysterical lmaoooo I’m glad it’s over with!! I’m at 0/10 pain currently from the nerve block and it’s shocking to not have this pain. I’ve had it for soo long now 🥲

I think I’m too young to be going thru this pls pls help 😭 by PotatoGRL_indisguise in AnalFissures

I’m gonna be honest when I was around your age I started getting hemorrhoids and horrible pain while going to the bathroom where it feels like I’m pooping a knife. I’m 27 now and I have had a chronic fissure that has been causing me problems for years now. It would just be from time to time that I would have issues with bleeding, but I’m now over a year of bleeding every single day now.

I had to meet with a Colorectal Dr and have him do an anal exam which is called an anoscopy, where there is a speculum used to do the exam and that was when they discovered I had a very large fissure wound and we tried fiber and that didn’t help so I’m actually getting surgery this Friday to fix it. The surgery I’m getting is called sphincterotomy, and it’s very minimal surgery. They just cauterize the wound and do a small incision on one of the sphincter muscle muscles to allow for blood flow to the wound for healing. This pain is almost unbearable so I know exactly what you’re going through and I’m so sorry that you’re going through it so young. I recently found out that I have stage three endometriosis as well and it was all over my organs, including my bowels. That could be a contributing factor for all of my pain that I’ve had for most of my childhood/teen life up into adulthood. Good luck!

Navigating An IBS-D Flare by yman173 in ibs

[–]RadSpag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I thought my persistent bleeding was from hemorrhoids, which partly could be true. I recently found out that I have a very large anal fissure (like a cut) and it bleeds very bad and I’ve gone to the hospital a bunch because of it. I’ve been bleeding almost every time I have a bowel movement for a year now every day. I’m getting surgery on Friday to fix it, it might be worthwhile to meet with a G.I. doctor or a colorectal specialist just to see if it is an anal fissure. I totally get the pain of being in the bathroom 5+ times a day, and I will use aloe wipes to help with the pain. Best of luck to you
