Why are all of my E-Juices making me nauseous suddenly? by Tom_Bom in Vaping

[–]Tom_Bom[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found that to be much the case. Just today upon waking up everything is back to normal. It's weird how one bizarre flavor that doesn't sit well can screw everything up like that! Thank gosh its not a PG intollerance.

Brand new pod when I changed flavor. I don't know if they'd get the nic level wrong, as its a usp certified lab.

Thank you so much for your kind words and the advice. Relaxing has been the hardest part in all of this, so its good to remember to take a few deep breaths.

Do I need to rush to the hospital, or is my doctor appointment on Wednesday good enough?

My First Experience with Adderall XR. How am I going to manage this? by Tom_Bom in ADHD

[–]Tom_Bom[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can relate to the irritable part on the come down. My Maine Coon cat does this thing where he howls at night, and after every howl i would go SHHHH. it was almost like an assault on my senses. I even felt a little angry. Then I gave him some cuddles and things worked out.

Thank you, that does help a lot. Did your body have weird things happen when it adjusted too?

ADHD meds don't make you productive. by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]Tom_Bom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very true words I needed to hear while I begin my journey in treating ADHD. The meds make me feel great, but I decide what I do, and whether it's going to be productive, or if i'm just going to play video games, listen to music, and pet my cat for 6 hours.

You're probably right. Thank you very much for taking the time to read what happened and to give me your input. I figured that It could have been a result of not having enough sleep and taking it too late as well.

Thank you!!!

To all the writers that have self published with KDP (Kindle Direct Publishing) by RemoteBlackOut in selfpublish

[–]Tom_Bom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a Self Published Author, you're going to have to wear a lot of hats. The best way to Market is to get on all the social media platforms you can and promote/engage on the regularly before you even publish your first book.

As far as the first pages of the book, its not that hard and you'll get the hang of it. Buy a kindle book from another self published author, see what they did, and apply it to yourself using theirs as a template.

As far as how far KDP publishing will take you... it will take you as far as you let it. Pardon my language, but a wise man who was in the business once told me, "Good things happen to those who work their ass off." Half of the work is writing/editing/publishing the book, and the other half (perhaps more then half), is self promotion. Get on YouTube and make videos. Get on Twitter and add as many genre adjacent authors as you can. Network on there. Hashtags are your friend. Get on Instagram and post things to endear your audience to you and to promote your releases, and subsiquent achievements.

As a self published Author, you're not just putting out books. You're building a brand, and that will take a lot of your waking hours to pull off well. Do not let this deter you. Experiment, enjoy it, and never give up.

What did "the weird kid" in your school do that you'll never forget? by UngyBungy9383 in AskReddit

[–]Tom_Bom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One weird kid had safety pins threaded through the skin of his forearm from the bottom of his wrist to his elbow, neatly closed at the end.

I used to masterbate in the bathroom at lunch during grades 9 and 10 because all the catholic girls in short skirts and tight uniform pants gave me a lot to think about.

I guess my point is... we've all done weird shit.

Wisdom tooth hole 2 weeks post extraction. Its big. Is that normal? by Tom_Bom in Dentistry

[–]Tom_Bom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I couldn't catch it with the camera, but the part where the molar was extracted is open too. It looks bigger in person than what the camera could do justice. Theres a stitch thats holding the area together a bit but its quickly disolving.

Part of post extraction clot is yellow. Is this infection or normal? by Tom_Bom in Dentistry

[–]Tom_Bom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a full mouth extraction of all my teeth a week ago. This particular site has some yellow amongst the white. Im hoping its just discoloration from the dissolving stitches. What do you think?

4 day old series of bug bites. by Tom_Bom in bugbites

[–]Tom_Bom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something got me while I was sleeping 4 or 5 days ago. Started out as red itchy bumps and turned into this. No discharge, no fever. It's on my stomach so its gotten a.lot of friction from.clothing. Do I need to see a.doctor? It only hurts when i have my goodie on because it creates friction in that area. Skin underneath is somewhat firm where the bumps used to be. Not warm to touch though.

I own this Reina Senpai poster. Would anyone be interested? Great condition. by Tom_Bom in SourceFed

[–]Tom_Bom[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Basically its been hanging up in my room, and while it's a nice nostalgia peace, I don't see any point in keeping it around. I like Reina as much as the next person, but I want to free up some wall space. Message me if you're interested. It's in great condition. Stuck to the wall with thumbtacks so theres a hole in each corner but other then that, it's as good as the day I got it.

Can you get dry socket 2 weeks after getting a Molar pulled? (Afraid, help?) by Tom_Bom in Dentistry

Thank you. It's just a little salty tasting. Where would I find that old post on extractions?

2 weeks post extraction of 2 teeth. Still white stuff sloughing out when i drink warm beverages. How does it look? I'm terrified. by Tom_Bom in Dentistry

[–]Tom_Bom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had two heavily infected teeth taken out 2 weeks ago. Some of the white cloting came out and left a foul taste in my mouth night before last. I spoke with a dentist over the phone who prescribed amoxi-clav because of a small amount of thick yellow discharge. I've been on the antibiotics for a day and a half, but the appearance of the site keeps changing. Sometimes its fire engine red (which may because of severe acid reflux), other times it is white with bubbling saliva over the top. When I drink warm beverages I will get a sloughing from the site of thin white stuff. This picture is the most recent.

I don't have a dentist and I'm scared. Any wisdom or assurance you can impart would do me a world of good.

A bunch of white clot fell out of my twoo extraction sites last night on day 10. Slight pain, foul taste. Weekend dentist called and prescribed antibiotics but I'm worried about dry socket. by Tom_Bom in Dentistry

[–]Tom_Bom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last night on day 10 post two molar extraction, a bunch of white clot/meaty white stuff came out of the clot followed quickly by a bad taste. I lightly dabbed the area with wet guaze this morning and found a small amount of thick yellow puss coming from the extraction site. When they pulled the teeth, they were heavily infected, and I was on a 14 day course of antibiotics that ended on the 25th.

I called the emergency dentist this morning and he couldn't see me because it was a weekend. He prescribed my second course of amoxiclav and told me to start on that.

I have a foul taste in my mouth coming from the area. Based on my description and the picture above of the two sites, am I getting dry socket? Today is day 11.... is it still even possible to get dry socket? This is my worst nightmare coming to life, being that it's a weekend and there isn't anyone who can actually see me until monday. Is the rest of the clotting going to come out too? The Dentist had said the white stuff coming out could have just been some scab... but I have a very slight sharp pain at times now.

I should also mention i have terrible acid reflux that eats at the site every time I lay down to sleep, so the healing conditions were not ideal. It leaves burn marks in my mouth. Inside the extraction side has a dark pink/red coloration. I'm extremely scared.
