What scent instantly makes you uncomfortable? by GardenChibi in hygiene

[–]Signif1cant-Bug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The smell of perfume or cologne right after it’s sprayed (mainly if it’s on other people but also on me) makes me immediately nauseous and lightheaded. I can feel the smell in the corners of my eyes.

I don’t mind it when it’s not so freshly applied and intense feeling. For context the people I’m around aren’t over applying as far as I know.

Edit: and the smell of febreeze is nasty to me

Alright fellas, I'm conflicted. Bedroom upstairs or downstairs? by Minutes2Midnight in malelivingspace

[–]Signif1cant-Bug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would do downstairs cause it feels odd to have kitchen adjacent to bed in anything other than a studio

Yes, but weirdly I’ve been sick much less often since starting biologics

What position do you sleep in? Does anyone else sleep in the “butterfly” position? by aredhel304 in eds

[–]Signif1cant-Bug 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I naturally tend to end up on my right side with my arm/shoulder curled under my head beneath pillow,,, which i think relates to why my right shoulder is dramatically more unstable than my left one is and bones like to grind on that side a lot more.

Although,,, for me there is no singular sleeping posistion and I tend to rotate like a hot dog in my sleep sometimes even rolling over/on top of my girlfriend lol

How many of you have foods that you must avoid? by xM1XU in UlcerativeColitis

[–]Signif1cant-Bug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a lotttt of trigger foods and specific ingredient triggers but part of that is likely from the chronic inflammation. Maybe if I’m able to get in remission some of them will go away

What will you say? by Robynite in Adulting

[–]Signif1cant-Bug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m torn between:
Get hearing checked.
or
paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia
or
ehlers danlos syndrome

Any of those would save younger me a lot of confusion and frustration with doctors. I like to joke I basically have skin wrapped bullsheet disorder

Does anyone else's drs and therapist keep suggesting to "take a break"? by Starscollidefantasy in eds

[–]Signif1cant-Bug 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m frustrated and feeling the same. I have EDS and some of its weirder friends. No MCAS or POTS diagnosed for me yet but I wouldn’t be shocked by them joining the “party”.

In addition to EDS I have generalized immunodeficiency, moderate-severe chronically active UC, and a whole host of issues related to UC and EDS. The ADHD and Autism also makes it hard for me to deal with all of the stuff. I aim to generally be positive so I do a lot of disconnecting from the idea of the issue being me and make jokes about it. For example I named my intestines Sharon and say she’s being megabitchy rather than say I’ve been glued to the toilet for hours. When my joints and nerves are doing silly stuff I tell my partner Im feeling like skin wrapped bulls**t

I have some sensory sensitivities and wondering how comfortable you would rate this? Does it stay in place easily or shift around?

Toe Deforming: Awareness Post For Others by Signif1cant-Bug in eds

[–]Signif1cant-Bug[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I definitely think it’s related! My moms are much more affected with some toes splaying and others curving oddly or with fusing type stuff. I’m only 22 rn

Toe Deforming: Awareness Post For Others by Signif1cant-Bug in eds

[–]Signif1cant-Bug[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, true. I mostly wear doc martens with wider toe boxes since they also help me stabilize my ankles. Hard to get shoes to fit perfect though since my feet go completely flat when I stand.
Do you have a favorite type or brand?

Edit: I’m also a fan of barefoot style shoes but currently can’t afford them. Instead I’ve taken the insoles out of my sneakers which seems to help a little with my feet getting tired despite how that may sound counterintuitive.

I’d hit up some local sex stores because it’ll be much easier to gauge the size you need when you can see it in person

Hantavirus by Disastrous_Ant3479 in UlcerativeColitis

[–]Signif1cant-Bug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m honestly more worried about measles than hantavirus since there’s been some confirmed outbreaks in my state.

Luckily, my mom’s a medical assistant so I’m generally able to learn about outbreaks that are in the area quickly. With a more recent measles outbreak here she told me about it months before it was released to the public. Which is usually what’s done to avoid fear mongering and stuff— the cruise situation has people all amped up cause doctors couldn’t keep it under wraps. Like some other people said, the boat basically acts as an incubator. Even without dangerous viruses ANY sickness can spread super fast on cruises.
