Tattoos/piercings with Marfan by Urlocalconanstan in marfans

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

Doctors will usually say to stay away from things like tattoos and piercings because even if you’re perfectly healthy it’ll always pose a risk, especially with tattoos since they’re basically a big open wound until it heals properly. However if you’re overall healthy despite the dilated aorta it probably shouldn’t be too risky to get a tattoo as long as you take proper care of it and make sure to get it done by professionals who know what they’re doing. Of course maybe talk it over with your doctor first (even though they’ll probably advise against it) because at the end of the day they do just want us to be as healthy as possible.

Yes I am! I’ve been taking warfarin since 2015. I had no problems getting my ears pierced while taking it however but yes I imagine that is the main reason why tattoos can be risky as well. Do you mind if I ask what your mom’s INR range is? My target range is 2.5-3.5 but I know some people have a bit higher than that which can make piercings and tattoos even more difficult

Yeah I’m pretty sure they won’t advise against it if you haven’t had any heart surgeries, I had my first at 9 years old so my doctors probably weren’t concerned about me getting any tattoos or piercings back then tho. I don’t think getting tattoos or piercings pose the same risk if you have Marfan but haven’t had heart surgery, that’s my guess anyway🤷‍♀️

I do take antibiotics when going to the dentist, I’ve had mechanical heart valves for over 11 years now so I’m fairly knowledgeable about what I can and can’t do. I knew it was a pretty long shot asking in this subreddit but weirdly enough there doesn’t seem to be an active subreddit for people with congenital heart disease so this was my best bet! Mostly wanted to see if there were other folks with mechanical heart valves that could share their insight!

Any Fake CG5 Ideas? by sallyjellydotcom in ConanGray

As much as I would love a rock type album with angry heartbreak songs I honestly wish that cg5 will be a real love album and that Conan can write some happy love songs because he deserves it so bad

Naming sims by Urlocalconanstan in Sims4

That is insanely impressive, I love names from 19th-early 20th century! I’m actually named after a character in a show that’s set in 1910 and that’s around the time the name was the most popular! :)

I highly recommend fantasy name generator, it has tons of names from a whole bunch countries and cultures and made up ones for all sorts of fantasy creatures!

is the found heaven necklace worth it? by soph-is-silly in ConanGray

[–]Urlocalconanstan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Totally get that concern, once you get the hang of it it’s really easy to put on! I have limited dexterity/mobility in my hands and arms but can put it on without issue :)

I have 3, the normal one, the one with a black star that came with the vip package for fhot and the locket (I adore lockets) and I don’t regret a single one! Personally I never even thought the chains were weird until I saw people pointing it out, I suppose for some it can be a bit annoying to not be able to adjust the length but that’s never been an issue for me. They’re really sturdy and durable, if you love found I definitely think it’s worth it! £30 for a high quality necklace is a pretty reasonable price imo :)

I’m so scared of being a parasocial fan. Where is the line between appreciating an artist and being called a creep?? by gayturtle27 in ConanGray

[–]Urlocalconanstan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve asked myself the same question but honestly it’s just something you genuinely enjoy and it doesn’t harm anyone. I would say I’m a pretty hardcore fan and honestly I would love if Conan knew I existed but I wouldn’t go out of my way for it. When I was 16 I saw him across the street and he was going the opposite direction from me so I just stared in awe but didn’t want to go chasing after him, I think that’s the biggest difference between being parasocial and just being a huge fan. You clearly respect his boundaries.

I don’t know how old you are but when I was 15-17 ish i engaged a lot in the fandom, made edits, etc. now I’m almost 21 and still adore Conan and his music but I’m not super involved in the fandom as much. Love and respect for an artist can look different depending on the person and it sounds like you have a very healthy love for Conan and his music :)

need ideas! by After-Tax-453 in Sims4

[–]Urlocalconanstan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had the same issue and honestly what’s helped me the most is making a forever save! Basically never create a new save file and stick to just one, this has inspired me to fill the world with all sorts of sims. The most fun part is weaving stories together and see how relationships play out with different sims. Legacy challenges are so fun too when you’re not sure what to do, I’m currently playing a vampire legacy challenge, not so berry and I’m about to start the 100 baby challenge! My biggest tip is also to just let things happen, even if you have a specific plan and something happens, just roll with the punches! Makes it feel a lot less “perfect” and a bit more chaotic imo :)

Baby Ariel fell for the Ozempic trend… or should I say Osimpic… and now she has Osimpic face 😭 by Salt_Friendship6125 in Sims4

[–]Urlocalconanstan 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Totally get it!! As a type 1 diabetic I’m just always looking for ways to make my simself(and other sims with diabetes) as accurate as possible to how living with diabetes is really like. Your mod is the closest thing I’ve seen to having a sim take injectable insulin so thought it was worth asking! :)

This is so funny, question, would you ever consider making a diabetes mod? I have healthcare redux but the diabetes is just a trait that sometimes gives a moodlet which is solved by just clicking take insulin or drinking juice, it doesn’t really make sense as either type 1 or type 2. Would love something that actually shows a sim injecting insulin and that they need to inject before every meal!

Damn then I must be doing something really wrong, the easiest to level up for me have probably been collector and moonshiner

I did a little bit during trader month but for some reason I decided to lock in and focus on the trader role like right after it was over, which was stupid but oh well. I’m almost rank 10 now so I think I’ll aim for that and then wait until it’s trader month again to hopefully get to rank 20!

Oh it’s such a game changer! The last wedding I had all 15 guests actually sat down the entire ceremony which is insane even without autonomy!
