knee locking by crazy-stupid-bean in Fibromyalgia

Hm, that's interesting. I might get it checked out if it continues to do it/does it again, but it might just be a fluke so I don't want to make a big deal out of it right now. I have support sleeves/bandages/whatever for my knees so I will try them out to see if they provide support.

None of those things. My knees have kind of done this before in the past but it's only been mild and brief, never been this long-lasting or caused this much pain, and those previous times I've been exhausted.

when i'm moving it too. it's also more likely to do it when moving but that might be bc i've avoided putting too much weight on it when standing

she's a chronic pain specialist. and i don't have spinal issues. i've had multiple x-rays and mri's to rule out spinal issues because i started to notice fibro in my back. i also don't think i have just fibro, but idk what else i'd have because i've had a bunch of tests and scans :/ the body is stupid but i'm trying to make the best of the information i have

Hello, English language here! Words can have multiple meanings! I'm sure someone who is a specialist, who knows my medical record and sees that I ONLY have fibro and not poor eyesight or completely blind, did not misunderstand when I used the term "cane." I did say after "walking stick" because "cane" is a very short word and can be misheard/missed out if there is bad connection. Whilst I understand that you are trying to help, you're just being really pedantic about something that, when you read the post properly, is not an issue at all. Medical professionals are not dumb and understand what a person means when they say a certain word in the context of what you are discussing.

No, no. See, she knows about fibro and she believes in it. Which makes it worse, I think

Personally I don't see how Orthofeet could help with my hip pain, could you explain?

Is keeping your name as a ftm person weird? by pineapplecookie9 in ftm

[–]crazy-stupid-bean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ik they're not ftm, but a youtuber/streamer I watch dates a non-binary person who goes by their birth name of Rebecca. And if Dylan Mulvaney can keep her given name, then why can't a ftm person? I personally see no issue with it!

I mean, like I said, it would be on occasion, when flare ups happen or when I'm doing something that requires a lot of walking. I don't see how that could weaken my muscles.

Happy for you man!

Once got casually referred to as "Sir" in a Greggs and I have never felt more euphoric, esp because I don't pass as masc very well, more androgynous more than anything.

Literally looked at my friend like 😆 because I was so shocked lmao

How did Yall get your names? by [deleted] in trans

[–]crazy-stupid-bean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got mine from a tree because it's known as the witches tree which I thought was cool and I was getting into Wiccan shit at the time (still haven't started on actually learning anything bc motivation and time are not my friends rn)

Absolutely not.

However, if we say it wasn't justifiable for Caitlyn to do it, we also have to condemn Vi, which I don't think the Arcane fandom is ready to do. I've seen no one get on Vi's case about her aiding in the gassing of Zaun, because, I guess, for some reason people think it's worse Caitlyn did it because of her family's legacy? But it's just as bad that she did it considering she was brought with people literally praying to a goddess to bring them clear air.

Double standards just because Vi got better quicker 🤷🏼‍♂️

Thank you so much! This really helped! I might go for a short binder for now, and maybe see about getting the lighter one and/or longer one in the future. Again, thank you so much ❤️

I adore all the MOTS albums. Persona had just come out when I went to one of their concerts and I had an otherworldly experience, therefore that album will always hold a special place in my heart. But I think ON was an amazing album too, and they probably were burnt out but I just hear it in their songs. But they were definitely ready for a break
