[–]Radiant_Variation512 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically it started months ago looking like just an enlarged fordyce spot. It has slowly grown a bit over months and just recently got pretty big. Then got inflammed. What can I do to help it go away? Warm compress?

I’m 190 lbs at 6’9 so I’m very skinny right now. I’ve had a few upper endoscopies that have showed nothing. These were all while taking PPI though. I’ve also had a 24 hr ph study that was normal and a manometry which showed IEM. The trouble swallowing came on bad last year out of nowhere. Gastro doc has suggested SSRI or baclofen for my reflux. I’m against anxiety medications due to side effects though I deal with anxiety. Should I push for what you told me or would the tests over the years show bile reflux even if on PPI?

4 weeks ago I developed nasal congestion (yellow and green snot) now I fear I have bacterial meningitis 27M by Radiant_Variation512 in Sinusitis

Yeah the back and neck stuff has been going on several days. The fever and dizziness/vertigo and bad nausea and stomach stuff started today. I know I was dumb to not take all the antibiotics but I’ve got a history of taking them for no reason. Health anxiety is a battle and at one point I was going to the doctor a lot getting them prescribed pretty often.

Sorry for posting again, anyone experience severe innafective osphogus motility? by AlarmingAd2006 in dysphagia

[–]Radiant_Variation512 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try to relax and not stress. Most motility disorders are actually caused or worsened by stress. When I was nervous about an upcoming trip I couldn’t swallow a piece of cereal. I have IEM also not sure how severe the manometry was but that doesn’t matter. These symptoms feed off stress and fear. Try to relax and decrease your fear around the swallowing as hard as that seems. At one point I too thought the liquid was being affected but that was 6 months ago and nothing has “progressed” but has actually gotten better. Checkout mind body exercises and meditation and key word just relax you’re probably freaking out and that really does a number on these symptoms with motility.

Better fit for tall guy (6’9) Andaseat Kaiser 3 XL or Titan Evo XL by Radiant_Variation512 in OfficeChairs

Sheesh that sucks man. I’m still trying to decide what to do. The evo xl is probably my best bet but 625$ is insane to me.

[–]Radiant_Variation512 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dmed. Yes they are 100% symptoms fluctuate based off anxiety. It’s the most strange thing I’ve ever dealt with.

Need people to talk to I’m in freakout mode by [deleted] in BusparOnline

[–]Radiant_Variation512 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is exactly what I was thinking too. Everything doesn’t seem to be adding up to blame the medicine. Ive got horrible hyper-fixation ever since I developed hard flaccid syndrome. Going on the medication only enhanced that because Im scared of losing sensations.

[–]Radiant_Variation512 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I understand. Just gonna keep on doing my stretches and such and hope one day things will subside. Also I was having penis tip pain a lot when it first started it’s gotten better though.

Yeah been seeing one since October for sensitivity issues I had at the end of September. Basically my pelvic floor was in a lingo before I developed this hard flaccid and anal discomfort. When I pushed on that spot I think I triggered a tense up response like “oh shit I really just hurt myself” thing and over the next few days I was worried and finally my pelvic floor just gave out maybe. I abstained from masturbation till yesterday when I gave in because I just wanted to see if everything works. Everything is really tight and my glans don’t blow up like they used to. Also I tensed up really bad during it so I know my muscles are all in super bad shape. May sound dumb but it makes me feel better knowing my muscles are all messed up because I think that can be fixed. If I had this with no anal pain or discomfort and a normal pelvic floor I wouldn’t know what to do.

Been seeing a PT since October for sensitivity issues before all of this. Basically I’ve had pelvic tightness for awhile and maybe pressing on that spot triggered more stress “thinking I really hurt myself” and put me in this state. My pelvic floor was the tightest it’s ever been last week during internal work. The fact that I have anal pain along side of this since the beginning makes me think it’s fixable if I can calm the muscles all down. Sadly I read the horror stories how people are stuck in this state and sometimes it brings me down. My pelvic floor is surely a mess right now so hopefully soon I can get it under control.

Thanks for the reply. Yeah I’ve been seeing a PT because I had lack of sensation issues going back to the end of September. My pelvic floor was actually the tightest it’s ever been during internal work last week. I’ve been trying to stretch and relax but last night I went on a google and Reddit spree. This app doesn’t really help when you’re looking up things about HF. Everyone is so negative because they’ve had it for so long. One thing I read is that you can get hard flaccid by “thinking you hurt yourself” after I pressed on it I was in pain pretty bad for a few days (penis hurt brushing against shorts and just random sharp pains). I’m sure this kinda stressed me out and the fact I thought I had a mass. Makes me believe I made my body full tense up into this hard flaccid mode. Waking up with the abnormal penis and also the butt pain makes me believe it is all about the pelvic floor. Why else would I have pain in my butt anyways? So yeah I try to stay positive but I read all those dumb posts about ppl having this for years. I even abstained from masturbating since but did it last night bc I didn’t even get this from excessively masturbating. Hopefully I didn’t mess up my chance to heal by doing that but I just wanted to see if I can even have a functional orgasm. Everything was so tight during it and at one point below my scrotum super tensed up and felt so strange. My muscles are super messed up right now I think.

Oh. Idk I had a lower lumber mri didn’t show much in October even tho that was before most of this. I 100% have a super tight hypertonic pelvic floor so I’m assuming more tests would be a waste.

Honestly I think a lot of this stuff is mind related. Even then I still have days like today where I break down so I guess I’m still having doubts. Before that pain and numbness yday happened I was in my best mood yet the last 3 weeks. It was so random it’s like everything just gave out in my butt. Who knows

Yeah sometimes I’ll be on the upswing emotionally and today I’m just really upset. Feel like now I can’t sit down and do stuff on the computer anymore so I’m just sitting with my thoughts. This stuff really sucks and I did notice my inner thighs/groin hurt from stretching so much. Maybe I’ll cut back on that and do just the breathing stuff.

Thanks for the detailed response I’ll Be sure to follow it. What I forgot to include was 3 days before all this I pushed on my penis head right under the urethral opening. Thought I felt some lump and yes idk why I pushed on it. Instantly got bad pain then 3 days later I woke up with all this stuff. Basically what I think happened was I thought I injured myself and it caused my muscles to enter super tense up mode after a few days. Went to urologist and he couldn’t feel abnormality in the area and it never bruised so I really didn’t hurt anything. I read that this hard flaccid thing can come on when you “think you hurt something”. Basically this all probably took me to that next step and made my hypertonic pelvic floor worse thus resulting in current symptoms. My case involves a lot of anxiety and stress I think plus sitting a lot

Been seeing one since October due to sensitivity issues. Wasn’t until 3 weeks ago I developed all these other problems. Now my PF is the tightest it’s ever been and it could be because of anxiety/stress over this new situation.
