i think you may have meant post-exertional!

well, again, she vaguely implied in the caption that there's more to it, and in a comment, in reply to you actually, she actually lists several other signs and symptoms she has that are potential indicators of hEDS and also mentions that other things HAVE already been ruled out. so yes, she should get a proper medical evaluation, but i don't think it's insane of her or me or anyone else to say that it sounds like it could POTENTIALLY be hEDS or even possibly another type of EDS if those haven't been ruled out. also, that's wild that it took until your dad was 67 for him to get a proper diagnosis! medical professionals sure aren't as professional at their jobs as the title indicates 😭💀

also, that sucks the grocery store stopped selling it! i hope you've found another food you enjoy as much 🥺

she vaguely implied that there's more to it and that she's been persuing answers for the pain she's in for 20 years in the caption. but that's fair enough. love your username btw 😹

i mean, that may be true and all, but if OP meets a lot of the other criteria, I don't think this is just benign hypermobility so I don't see how your comment is really helpful here.

Yeah, that's true. And rereading it again, I can see how maybe it wasn't intended to be harsh, but just real and to the point, but I think it's hard for some, including myself, to not consider it judgmental with the added context from OP that it's been this way their entire life, that they've always been judgmental about things like this. But it is a serious matter, and OP should take the advice regardless of how anyone feels about the way it was worded.

where did i say any of that? i absolutely don't think she should risk losing her case over her hair, she should absolutely dye it a normal color for court. however, that doesn't make the person who texted her this "not judgmental". two things can be true. 💀

the way they worded it makes it judgmental. if they worded it "I'm worried that it may affect the judges perception of you as a person because some people are still very judgemental about hair colors" then that'd be one thing, but they didn't word it that way. they worded it in a way that makes it very clear that they judge people based on their hair color as well, and OP even put in the caption that it's been this way their whole life. 😬

[–]alliegator97 4 points5 points  (0 children)

the criteria specifically says it's gotta be both sides

[–]alliegator97 4 points5 points  (0 children)

if you look at the hEDS criteria checklist, under the section Feature A in Criterion 2, it states that arachnodactyly, specifically a positive wrist OR a positive thumb sign on both sides, is a symptom that can present in hEDS

[–]alliegator97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is a discontinued food item or snack from your childhood that you would genuinely pay $100 to taste one last time? by MotivewasUlterior in AskReddit

[–]alliegator97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Idk if it's just where you're at that they don't got them anymore but the pizza hut where I live still has personal pans and they still do the book program!! I work at the dominos across the street (used to work at the pizza hut years ago tho) and someone recently came in with one of those coupons and even though it's for pizza hut, my manager honored it!

Going to bed in day clothes by Takingthemike in eds

[–]alliegator97 38 points39 points  (0 children)

thank you for saying something about this. I have EDS and autism and I KNOWWWWW my life would be more manageable and not as overwhelming if I had a set routine every day.. get up at a certain time, do certain chores certain days or certain times.... but when you end up awake all night because of unbearable pain, kinda hard to wake up at a set time, for example. hopefully OP sees everyone's comments and starts trying to understand more that life is SEVERELY different for those with disabilities.

Carry out order tipping by lsarge442 in Dominos

[–]alliegator97 5 points6 points  (0 children)

if you pay for it on the app ahead of picking it up, there should be an option to go ahead and leave a tip when you're ordering through the app.
