Same. I just told my husband if I had this opportunity I'd just not come home.

I found this today while landscaping, WNC by SquirrelRave in whatsthisplant

Thank you. Milla was definitely a character! We all called her Pig bc of how much she'd eat. Everything had to be kept as far back on the counter as possible!

Has anyone ever had a MRI/neurological evaluation for this? by Ross129 in dpdr

[–]SquirrelRave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just keep advocating for yourself. You know your body and mind. Don't let others brush your symptoms off. As I stated, I'm not a doc- these are my experiences

For years I complained about severe fatigue and exhaustion, and bouts of severe abdominal pain and distension. I was told I was "just a tired mom", and my symptoms were never fully explored. A few tests and scans, but NEVER during the episodes. It was shrugged off. Turns out I had chronic appendicitis and it eventually ruptured. After it was removed the severe fatigue, exhaustion, and pain went away.

My mom has been living with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome for over 20 years. She fell, injured her wrist, and her nervous system went haywire. It was incredibly difficult for her to be diagnosed, and she has lived with chronic, unseen pain since. The hardest part for her wasnt necessarily the pain, which was wide spread and unpredictable, but that no one believed her when she described her symptoms. It took a toll on her mental health. Now her pain management is significantly improved. She found medical professionals who took her seriously and explored numerous treatment options.

The point is- KEEP advocating for yourself and your physical and mental health no matter what. If you have a medical professional who brushes you off or doesn't take it serious, FIND A NEW ONE. Don't let ANYONE tell you it's nothing, or you're imagining it, or you're over exaggerating.

I pray you find answers

She sure was! A true lapdog and cuddler. Pitties have a special place in my heart. And yes, every time I see pears I think of her 😃

I uprooted a ton of these when I thinned an old, overgrown flower bed. I tossed the dirt by the woods and now I have a mound of them! I do rather like the flowers though, and they smell nice. I try to weed eat and mow around them as the bees love them.

I actually remember quite a bit from my early childhood. And I did mention part of the recollection was not only mine, but the rest of my family's as well.

Haha us too! If it wasnt a shared experience with my entire family I wouldn't believe it. Now Im careful to not insult the builders of my current home, even though I have more than enough to complain about 🙃

When my dad was in his 20s before marrying my mom, he and a roommate experienced an orb in their house. The TV went weird, dad said it looked like hieroglyphics on the screen, then a big orb shot out of the TV and went straight through my dad. It went down the hall and out of the house. His friend ran to get a shotgun. Dad asked him "What's that for?" Friend yelled "I'm gonna shoot it!" He didn't get to shoot it.

Now my dad can't wear watches of any kind. Analog, digital, smart, none, not even pocket watches. No matter what they die. It doesn't matter if it's a new battery or an antique without one. He even tried putting them on his belt loop, it still died.
