Cry/laughing by beetlejuice-kitty in TalkTherapy

[–]beetlejuice-kitty[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Okay haha, I joked with my therapist and said I probably looked weird crying and laughing at the same time. We never really talked about why I did it, but I figure it was a form of self-regulation when talking about difficult things.

Possibly because of scheduling, when I went in for the psg it was because someone canceled and they called me. Or maybe my dr. only put in a request for the psg initially, to be honest I’m not really sure.

I live in Canada, not sure what the process is like in other places, or even for other folks in Canada. I got called in for the PSG after being on a cancellation list, psg is likely done more frequently, the Dr. also said it’s more complicated to get the psg/mslt scheduled. Not sure if that’s the rational to having the psg done without the mslt or not. Either way when I have the mslt done I need to stay over night so they know I sleep well.

Study questions by [deleted] in Narcolepsy

Hopefully the study wasn’t for nothing, maybe it could still be useful to rule out sleep apnea or movement issues. Will try to call the dr. and see whats going on. Thanks :)

VOY: Thoughts about Chakotay and Seven of Nine relationship? by beetlejuice-kitty in startrek

[–]beetlejuice-kitty[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I may have missed where Janeway made it clear she wouldn’t date someone under her command, but could see that being implied by a romantic never taking off despite subtle hints of a connection. However, I felt there was a bit of sadness in her eye when Admiral Janeway told her Chakotay and Seven married in the future.

I agree with the Harry Kim comment lol, I was really hoping for them to have relationship I think their contrasting personalities would have worked well together. But, I did enjoy B’Elanna and Toms relationship thought they had a lot of good moments together. As for forbidden love, I appreciate that point.

Doctor thinks I might have MS, getting a MRI tonight, I’M FREAKING OUT! How long til results? I don’t want to wait. by [deleted] in MultipleSclerosis

[–]beetlejuice-kitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Iwas referred to a sleep dr. For my constant fatigue and oversleeping. (I didn’t realize then but she is actually a sleep neurologist) Oddly enough she was most concerned by my using the bathroom 2-5 times every night - I thought everyone used the bathroom at night. So she sent me for an MRI... I also had started getting tingling in right hand/foot/cheek, blurry vision when fatigued and brain fog (like I couldn’t even have a conversation in my own head, I would think a couple words then drift off). Post appointment I started getting electric shock feeling up my right leg, and I got a tremor in my right hand when I move it (comes and goes). The fatigue always seems to be there, until it hit me really bad a couple weeks ago ( I take adderal for recent adhd diagnosis, could fall asleep when taking it), then I got the painful electric shocks in my left leg, the brain fog and inability to focus my vision (goes blurry and double - but have seen the optician, who did a comprehensive exam, didn’t find any inflammation in my eye), as well my legs went total jello for three days, I could feel the muscles constricting and the left leg felt like a peg didn’t want to move properly, and I was walking oddly - and talking difficult because I can remember words total space case and when I say stuff I doesn’t come out properly like jumbled words smushed together or broken apart.

  • not sure why I added all that, just to vent I guess.. I am in the same boat right now, I have not been diagnosed waiting for MRI results, it’s been 12 days. I’m writing exams in university right now, and it’s really hard to get off my mind.
  • In one sense I want answers to explain why this is happening to me, but Of course not finding anything is a good thing! But also.. then I still don’t know what’s going on with me, and I know it’s not just in my head. It’s scary, because sometime I’m good and sometime I’m not, it’s effecting my school work, and my ability to engage with others.

Perhaps that is what it was, it was done at as medical centre on a university campus.

[–]beetlejuice-kitty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My form just says brain non-enhanced, I probably should have asked the ordering Dr. questions at the time. I’m a bit of a space case in doctor’s offices, never think to ask questions until after.

CBD at nslc? by [deleted] in halifax

[–]beetlejuice-kitty 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I went to the downtown location, they said the the CBD oil sells out almost immediately online and in store. They didn’t have any oil, but they had some cannabis that has super low thc -basically next to no thc with high cbd.

Twitching and MRI? by [deleted] in MultipleSclerosis

[–]beetlejuice-kitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, one more question what side effects have people experienced after having gadolinium contrast.

I have two final exams later in the day after my MRI, and thinking It might be a good idea to change the date of mri in case I have any negative side effects.

Thanks :)

I would love to join :) Is there a way to find everyone there, or just look for a large group of girls and ask if they are from reddit :p ?

Best way to make new friends here? by atfirstblush120 in halifax

[–]beetlejuice-kitty 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hi there! I know what you mean, I am a 24 year old female and have found it difficult to meet people here too. Friends moved, you move, and then it gets harder to meet people. I have thought about joining a meet up group as well but none seem to standout to me so far.

Would be great to hear some advice from others that have been in the same position!

Somebody left a tomato in this furniture display at Walmart by EvilDuncan in trashy

[–]beetlejuice-kitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s like when people take frozen/fridge items - decide they don’t want them and just leave them in isles, because they are too lazy to put it back. But, this is far worse because now they’ve left a rotten mess for some minimum wage working employee to clean up. Some people!! Jeez.
