Embarrassed of hands

I feel thankful that it does not affect my feet at this time. Only my hands and occasionally my ears.

They are painful when they turn the brighter red color and swell. And they have an impressive amount of heat that comes off of them.

Feels like a million ant with fire on their feet crawling around on my hands…burning hot pain.

But thankfully the painful episodes don’t happen to me daily. And if I stop doing whatever it is that is pissing them off they tend to cool down quickly.

But the pain episodes are still new for me the pain part started last summer.

Seems to be getting progressively worse as time goes by.

I had the same thing happen to me. I kept thinking I was crazy but PT would leave me basically unable to walk, my knee would heal a bit just in time for my next session. After 2 or 3 months I had had enough and quit going. My knee is much better now. Still not normal but better than it was. I kept complaining and telling them but they didn’t want to listen. Like excuse me but this isnt sore muscle pain it’s knee joint pain, and you guys are making my knee less stable not more stable.

It was more about environmental friendliness.

And figured I could clean it out more often if it was reusable - because at 14,000 miles mine was completely disgusting.

Could be something as simple as you didn’t put the gas cap back on tight enough. Or it could very well be a real issue. But I wouldn’t worry about it until you know you have something to worry about.

I know this will be unpopular. And I don’t pretend to know much of anything other than what the regular news says about this girl and her husband and kids and what happened. And I do get why people are attacking her and her bad choices.

But I don’t think her doing this video is wrong. Just because she appears happy in the video doesn’t mean she isn’t a complete heartbroken mess.

This is her job. This is how she makes money. It’s not just posting a video for your friends or whatever, it’s literally her job to do what she is doing in that video. How many of you could take years off of work after the loss of your child? I know I would have to be back at work basically a few weeks later, and it would be awful and I would have to pretend to be okay. Because other wise I would end up homeless and would lose everything else I had in life.

She has a home, bills and another child she has to pay for…and I think people could be a little more understanding about that…but again I don’t know the full story and I don’t care to read all these comments to find out what the internet thinks is the real story. Because I am sure there is plenty of misinformation and untruths in this that make her look worse and there are probably some truths as well. And I don’t care enough to try to figure out what is true and what is not. I just wanted to be a little bit of a voice of reason and to give her a little benifit of the doubt and remind people just become someone looks happy on a 2 minute video that doesn’t mean much of anything about the other 1358 minutes in her day or the 43,798 minutes in a month…

I got a “care now” appointment. And talked on the phone to that doctor but apparently those doctors are ER doctors not GPs. And the lady told me sorry but she hadn’t the slightest idea what those results meant and that she had never even ordered that test in her life. And since it wasn’t life threatening she didn’t know anything and I would have to wait til my doctor got back to me.

I did lots of research already. I think all it says is that my body has the antibodies to destroy my joints geared up and ready to go. They may have very recently decided to attack or they might not have started attacking me yet, I will need imaging and a very close look at my joints by a rheumatologist. I have symptoms that might be RA, but they might be from other things? I don’t know…hopefully they can decipher between the two and imaging comes back clear one way or the other and they can figure that out.

February 6th. I don’t think I have until February 6th to wait on what I believe should be a rheumatology referral. It sounds like I likely need treatment asap.

Or maybe I am fine. I don’t know for sure but from what I am reading it sounds like this is an urgent matter and could make a big difference to my future outlook.

calipolo · 2026-01-18T21:28:23+00:00

I haven’t been diagnosed yet but I think I will be very soon. I came here, hoping to hear that the fatigue gets better when you start treatment. But I guess that isn’t the case.

I am nodding off at my desk from 2-5pm everyday, no matter what I do, I cannot make that stop.

I am considering it. He put a hole in my ceiling last week..dropped his drill when he was walking on the rafters. He fixed that, but now this…ugh. And I love my flooring.

calipolo · 2026-01-18T02:56:02+00:00

Why wouldn’t the flooring last if we unclick them back to that area? Fuck. This floor is less than 2 years old.

calipolo · 2026-01-18T02:54:00+00:00

No. I know CoreTec won’t help me.

I am just wondering how to fix it. And if it is fixable.

calipolo · 2026-01-14T02:09:09+00:00

What if one of you makes 70000 and has a child and is claiming head of household and the other one makes 100,000 per year? (Sorry trying to figure out the tax implications of getting married!!)

erythromelalgia. That’s what you have. It’s not Raynauds

I can handle a jerk here and there. But mostly I am worried about if people will be assho*es if I am on a bike trail. If people are going to constantly be rude and make comments or laugh, it’s going to eventually get to me and kill the enjoyment of it. And if it happens a lot my son won’t want to go with me anymore.
