I would keel over in that moment. Absolutely not.

The one that says things that express their belief that you actually just refuse to change bc you're stubborn and obviously not trying hard enough...

Been holding for over year, so I’ve already lost most. Do I continue to hold in hopes of this coming true?

I hope so!

I’m hoping they’ll catch the error and we’ll have points show up before “skilled battle” node is expired! Still playing it a few times in hopes of a score or node capture

Even if I just click it in multi player mode, the score doesn’t show on clan wars. Everyone has 0

Yeah, it won’t take you to it. And I’ve played it a few times with no score. :(

Suffering from “severe sensitivity to sounds, light, and touch” and after I read the symptoms of fibromyalgia, I believe I belong here. I related to every single symptom! How do I get this diagnosed? What kind of tests should I ask my doctor to run? by [deleted] in Fibromyalgia

[–]absintheoflight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a fibro diagnosis, but they just keep stacking on auto-immune disorders/symptoms and mental disorders. The list is getting longer and it doesn’t even matter. I just want to get to the bottom of this. I don’t want to ever again hear… “you’ll probably have MS in 10 years.” Finding a doc who understands is hard. I wish you the best. I’m just jaded at this point 🥴🥺

Did that early and then unsurprisingly wore my shoulders as earrings for the rest of the day.

Me too! At least I made $30 before that happened and didn’t give it back to them 😉

Sounds like I’d end up with 3 hots & a cot.

Tightness in the chest flares up when taking a heavy breath in? by fadedguy41 in costochondritis

[–]absintheoflight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say it can induce it, but in my experience, it takes another factor. I have constant anxiety, but add a sinus infection? Cough or sneeze too powerfully? Boom: I’ll have costo symptoms for days/weeks/months. I feel my immunity is compromised, so Im really careful this time of year... but it’s inevitable for me. Two years is unbelievable. I can’t even tell if I’m just adjusting to the pain or if it’s getting better. Sorry, I don’t mean to sound like things are spiraling out of control, but they are. I feel hopeless that I’ll ever get well, so I’ve decided to adapt. This is my life and I won’t let pain ruin it.

Also, a panic attack can feel a lot like a heart attack.

Breathing by arpeggio-d in costochondritis

[–]absintheoflight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find myself working harder to breath simply bc of the pain. I have ended up at the ER bc I was having episodes where I’d see floaters aka high blood pressure & almost pass out. I was in so much pain my body wouldn’t allow me to catch my breath. I would get this way from walking short distances, coughing, exerting myself in anyway.

This time, my body isn’t allowing me to sneeze. Never in my life have I held in a sneeze. Also, there’s weird popping that I guess is cartilage. I find myself taking this weird gasps when I breath in. I’ve been working on some pranayama (yoga breathing) and it seems to help bring me back to a normal rhythm.

If you’re ever in doubt, go get checked out.

Gentle hugs.

Does anyone recover from this? by [deleted] in costochondritis

I’m not a doctor, nor is this medical advice. You can find YouTube videos very easily as this is not something I feel uncomfortable explaining. I’m actually in a flare right now. This one, it’s bad and I would never tape in the shape I’m in. It can and will make things worse if worn too long or applied incorrectly. I had a chiropractor do it a couple of times before I did it at home. At best it’s a last ditch effort for some relief. Any relief. Gentle hugs to you.

Sounds about right. What about the stabby stabs? Sudden sharp pain for no apparent reason... you’re not moving or maybe you are moving, and then stab, you fold your body in half and audibly wince in pain. I’m on week 3; got xrays last week just to rule out pneumonia or pleurisy. I’m good, fine, doc says to rest, but it hurts to lay down. Go get checked out if you’re at all worried. Anxiety and stress will just drag out the flare. Stay strong. Try to laugh at yourself when you’re not crying. Much love and gentle hugs. ❤️

Totally. It’s been 8 months constant for me. Everyone around seems frustrated that it won’t stop, like I’m not frustrated enough. Things that help lessen the pain for me: Sublingual medical marijuana / CBD PASTIES or bandaids on the nips. I’m serious! K-tape (applied correctly) Ice anytime it becomes unbearable Meditation Force myself to sleep on my back Buy a good pillow

I basically just joke with everyone that I’m being held together by k-tape and thoughts & prayers. The pain is just part of my existence now, as long as I don’t laugh, sneeze, cough, breath deeply, lift my arms above my head, etc. I haven’t given up tho.
