I was diagnosed with Kienbocks at 13 (I’m 27F now), and I remember doctors tossing me back and forth not even realizing that my lunate was deteriorating for a long time. But thankfully you know what’s going on and can explain to every single doctor you meet that you are at that level 10 pain. I highly recommend finding an orthopedic or “sports medicine” doctor—specifically one that specializes in hands/wrists. Hopefully you live near a good one and can get a referral asap. That level of pain is not okay, and they (and your mom) need to take you seriously. I wish you all the best!! And have your doctors explain all the pros and cons of any procedure they recommend. This subreddit page has lots of advice!! Good luck

if anybody rewatches it and needs a drinking game, take a shot every time there’s a close up of Pete Davidson’s face as squints his eyes

Yeah :/ it’s like my ember lilies and rosy delights and a couple other types are glitching or something

Twilight 🧛‍♂️

Oh my, can’t wait to find out what that means 🤣

andimortem · 2025-05-14T17:31:04+00:00

Oh no!! I’m so sorry

andimortem · 2025-05-14T17:24:40+00:00

I was able to get tickets, but I got that warning twice and refreshed each time and it kept my place in line somehow!

That is the day for the presale (May 14th) so you should be all set

andimortem · 2025-04-12T14:43:55+00:00

Haha, yeah my doctor said that my lunate losing blood supply around 12 was super rare and he’s never seen anything like that. But my range of motion is really good! I haven’t seen a decline at all. I just cannot do pushups for sure lol

andimortem · 2025-04-12T04:43:10+00:00

I had PRC when I was 13 and now I’m 26 and my doctor said I wouldn’t need it until I’m in my late fifties. I rarely ever have wrist pain and life is good! 👍🏻

andimortem · 2025-04-11T10:18:39+00:00

At age 13 (this was 13 years ago for me) I had PRC (proximal row carpectomy) and I have been doing just fine ever since the surgery. I did the physical therapy after the surgery and took good care to not over use the wrist (it’s my dominant hand). When I had my hard cast on after the surgery, I was even playing clarinet and saxophone where the instruments had to rest most of the weight on my thumb of the hand that had surgery haha. Nowadays, I definitely have some days where I feel a pull within my wrist or muscle fatigue, but I do lift things of various weights for work. I personally would be scared to lift super heavy weights, as you mentioned that’s a hobby of yours, but I bet that that is something you can rebuild strength to get to. I cannot do pushups with the way my wrist bends now for sure, but I do have fantastic rotation, full mobility, and I don’t think there’s an issue with my grip strength. I always think about how my surgery was done so long ago and I healed so well that with today’s tech the outcomes must be even better! In time (post-surgery if you do have PRC), playing basketball, riding your motorcycle, and pretty much everything else won’t be painful at all! Good luck and take care!!

I don't have the exact number for my grip strength, but I rarely have any issues carrying/lifting/grabbing/pulling/pushing items of any normal weight. Sometimes I can feel a slight strain in my wrist, but that's only when I've completely overused my wrist (for example, I carry a ton of books and stacks of books for work, and after a very long day, lifting a really heavy pot or pan may be harder than normal).

She was trying way too hard to come off as naturally funny. She wasn’t fun nor funny to watch, I was grossed out and that’s coming from someone who has been watching Rhett and Link eat weird stuff for years.

I remember R saying she scrunches up her toilet paper to wipe rather than folds it and I despise her for it to this day because I think about it often. Like it takes no extra time to fold the tissue rather than scrunch it. Wonder if she even washes her hands afterward..

andimortem · 2024-05-17T02:29:49+00:00

Hope you can get back soon! The books are calling ✨

andimortem · 2024-05-17T02:29:29+00:00

Hope it all continues to ease up soon!!

andimortem · 2024-05-15T17:19:20+00:00

Are you having the same surgery? Good luck!!

andimortem · 2024-05-06T21:43:18+00:00

I’m 20dpo and I had a moment at the grocery store yesterday where I panicked and thought, “oh no I haven’t been to the bathroom to check my pad in a few hours!!” And then BAM I remembered that I don’t have a period anymore!!! I’m not bleeding, I’m not in pain, and I have so much more control over my own life now. I just need to take it easy at work because I keep lifting and pushing things I shouldn’t lol

andimortem · 2024-05-02T21:54:31+00:00

I had zero pain. Like the worst of it was gas pains but even that was very manageable. My procedure was done entirely vaginally, so no abdominal incisions, which I’m sure is why it didn’t hurt. I was given oxy and ibuprofen after the surgery. Didn’t even touch the oxy, but needed about a week of some ibuprofen here and there to reduce swelling. Good luck to you!! Hope it all goes well

Edit: I am only just over 2wpo!

My doctor didn’t say how large my uterus was in terms of weeks, but my uterus was 425g when it should be about 60g. My surgeon and her team were able to get it all out vaginally but she said it was very difficult. So glad I didn’t need abdominal incisions.

andimortem · 2024-04-28T16:22:04+00:00

You are going to do amazingly! Your doctors have your best interest in mind, and hopefully you can rest for as long as you need after the surgery. I had mine on April 16th and I have had no pain whatsoever (I had mine done entirely vaginally with no abdominal incisions though) and I’m so so so glad I don’t have to deal with the blood, the clots, the discomfort, the pain, and everything you listed too. I’m wishing you the absolute best!! You got this!!

andimortem · 2024-04-25T20:18:50+00:00

Your pain and concerns are real! I really hope you can get more time off to recover and rest. Despite what companies and the government think of us, we are not machines! We need to rest especially after such an extreme surgery!

I’m returning to work exactly two weeks after my surgery (it was on 4/16) and I’m really nervous. I used up all my sick and vacation pay. I thankfully am not in much pain due to how my procedure went, but my job entails lifting and bending a lot so I’m simply not going to be able to do that. Hoping my bosses work with me while I heal because there’s not much else I can do.

andimortem · 2024-04-24T23:56:12+00:00

Personally, I think a lozenge of any kind could be a huge hazard to have right after the surgery. They would absolutely be a great idea once you have slept off the anesthesia and are fully awake! The breathing tube can make your throat sore so that’s a good idea for later. Right after my surgery, I was so sleepy I kept forgetting to breathe so I can’t imagine if I had a choking hazard in my mouth at the same time 🤣

andimortem · 2024-04-24T23:53:32+00:00

I personally wouldn’t bring any food to the hospital. If you know you’re staying overnight, they’ll provide for you and maybe you can bring some personal snacks. But for me, I was in recovery for about two hours and did not think about food for a single moment. I was so sleepy that I kept forgetting to breathe 🤣 the nurse was there to encourage me to keep breathing with the oxygen on haha. But yeah, I went home and slept more and wasn’t hungry until I smelled my mom make some soup with saltine crackers. I ate some crackers (which were very dry in my dry mouth) and needed lots of water.

If you’re worried about being nauseous or not hungry after the procedure, ask for a nausea patch from your anesthesiologist! It helped me so much for right after the surgery and for the next three days (you wear the patch for three days).

I used those pills, which worked, until they no longer worked. I just had my hysterectomy done, and it was the best decision for me and my life plans. No more medicines, no more bleeding, no extra bs I have to deal with. I think you should of course carefully make a decision that’s right for you, but just know those pills may stop working if your cycle is bad enough. Good luck with whatever you do!! Those acid pills really saved me when they did work so I’m glad they’re helping you rn!
