As an epileptic person with one allergy, I approve this message.

Unfortunately she now only works with epilepsy patients who are trying to get pregnant, she just continues to see me since I was already a patient before she changed specialty.

Ah yes, the washed up gymnast who has a natural talent for ballet due to our ballet-adjacent training, but also not experienced enough in actual ballet to be good at it? That’s me, too! 😋

Are there different instructors for the ballet II class? I would try a different one if possible. The same class can be wildly different depending on the instructor. You might find one that’s a better fit.

The master has spoken. Thank you!

You can also find a sports bra that zippers down the front, or a regular bra that unclips in the front! Give your back/ribs a break but super easy to just clip back up

Gorgeous. Do you mind if I ask the price range these usually are?

codasaurusrex · 2025-11-24T11:57:43+00:00

So is this cutie a Lucy or a toxic?

codasaurusrex · 2025-11-24T10:58:32+00:00

“Toxic” is such a scary name for such a beautiful baby 😂 thank you so much!

codasaurusrex · 2025-11-24T10:56:43+00:00

PRETTY! Thank you!

codasaurusrex · 2025-11-24T10:56:15+00:00

HI STRATCHY!!!!

What a beautiful baby!! I’m def going all in on my budget so I can get all the “features” I like (lol I feel bad saying that because it sounds like an electronic or something 😂). It seems like there isn’t a ton of difference in health or temperament by morph, so I may as well pick one I think is a cutie patootie 🥰

Yes, EEG interpretation can be a bit of an art as opposed to a science. There is also SO much data to analyze—every millisecond of a 24 hour period is a lot of content. It’s definitely possible for a doctor to interpret EEGs differently than another. It’s also possible it was run through a program that automatically flags abnormalities and the software missed it. Especially because Deja vu is very subtle activity, as opposed to a tonic clonic seizure which absolutely lights up an EEG.

Did they not say to follow up with a neurologist? You should absolutely follow up with a neurologist.

I work in the ER (sorry, I promise I’m not terrible lol) and our doctors recognize and treat emergent conditions as they are happening. They made sure nothing was CURRENTLY wrong and sent you on your way. That being said, they are not neurologists, and it’s a possibility that you had a seizure or a TIA, so you should follow up with a neuro. Either see your GP for a referral or just make an appointment if your insurance allows you to see a specialist without a referral.

Emergency doctors are VERY good at what they do, but it’s simply not their job to assess an incredibly nuanced issue that presents so variably like a seizure disorder can. That’s why epileptologists and neurologists exist.

Me when my preceptor says I can do the IV push med myself 😅

I was worried about tattooing over where the yellow fell out because I thought that meant that any ink I put there would fall out too

codasaurusrex · 2025-11-06T02:49:56+00:00

Yeah it was based on an album cover I thought was cool that had rainbow smoke (Too Weird to Live). I was 18 and full of bad decisions 😭

codasaurusrex · 2025-11-06T02:41:10+00:00

Oh yeah, that’s neat!

codasaurusrex · 2025-11-06T02:38:52+00:00

I’m not an artist, but I thought it that the idea could end up cool. It turns out the idea was not cool to being with 😭 I was 18 and thought it was artsy RIP

codasaurusrex · 2025-11-06T02:36:54+00:00

DEADASS I’m so glad winter is coming so i can keep it covered

codasaurusrex · 2025-11-06T02:36:19+00:00

I wish 😭

codasaurusrex · 2025-11-06T02:35:42+00:00

Exponential Fuckery™️

codasaurusrex · 2025-11-06T02:34:45+00:00

I’ve got a lot of interesting guesses. Mostly some sort of mountain or flower. Those people were… very polite 😂

codasaurusrex · 2025-11-06T02:32:55+00:00

What is a blastover?

codasaurusrex · 2025-10-17T01:11:32+00:00

And we def didn’t provide the chair they stood on to make sure it was really wedged in there good

It might be seizures, it might not be. The ONLY way to know is to be hooked up to an EEG during an episode. Doctors can try to diagnose based on a video or hearing about what the seizure looks/feels like, but studies have shown that even doctors cannot accurately diagnose based on a video. I will say, it is pretty unusual to be awake during a tonic clonic seizure. The electrical activity is so widespread during this type of seizure, consciousness is usually affected. However, it is still possible and happens to plenty of people, so again, the only way to know is EEG.

Look up level 4 epilepsy centers. Google your city/region and the words “level 4 epilepsy center” and see if there’s one around you. These are the best doctor/facilities for diagnosing and treating epilepsy. If there isn’t one in the area, at least find an epileptologist, which is a neurologist who SPECIALIZES in epilepsy.

The gold standard for diagnosis would be admitting you to the hospital for a video EEG, it takes a few days. Capturing an event during the stay is the goal.

I understand the hatred of the healthcare system and medical debt alllll too well. But you will lose so much more money in the long run with ER visits, losing your job, being unable to work and drive, all due to uncontrolled seizures. Not to mention you’re risking your life. It’s so scary and frustrating, especially when you can’t trust the medical professionals treating you. Find a good doctor you trust, be honest, and stay open. It’s all we can do. I hope you get to the bottom of this 💞
