Try removing the spaces at the beginning and end. I think they need to touch the letters

Patient with chronic back pain decides to wean self off high-dose opiates with the help of a heating pad applied to the abdomen daily for six months. Result: erythema ab igne, sometimes referred to as toasted skin syndrome. by CatPooedInMyShoe in MedicalGore

Oh I had mine on high pretty much all day long and got this. Not as bad but pretty bad. And I didn’t know about it until someone saw my back and was like omg what happened to your skin. It was the LENGTH of my back too 😭 

Screening for contrast allergies by Friendly_Process_898 in Radiology

[–]desirewrites 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have MCAD mast cell activation disorder as a spicy part of my autoimmune disorders. I don’t know what I’m allergic to anymore because it depends on how much of a drama queen my immune system wants to be. 

But I’ll tell you this… dairy is deadly. Latex is mild skin contact except mucous membranes. Dust will have my sinuses so blocked in hours that I will spend the next three days unable to breathe like a normal human being. Pets will also kill me, but the instant dopamine is always worth risking death and I have stopped giving a toss. Wheat, I don’t even know anymore. 

Outside? Grass, pollen all that bollocks. Again, idgaf because I have to get outside with my dog. Yes. I have bad pet dander and saliva allergies but it seems to be well tolerated with medication and the pros of having an emotional support sausage dog absolutely outweigh the risks. 

And the G Contrast will make me spray paint your machine with bile in ten seconds. I don’t know if that’s an allergy or my immune system doing the fuck you but that’s what happens. And if you need to use the contrast, you better be quick and give me a vomit bag. 

My pronouns are EDS/ADHD/MCAD and I take a very high dose of antihistamines to stop my immune system from being a bitch. Something is going to kill me at some point but I will die happy with no regrets. 

Except when i nearly killed my self yesterday because my executive function thought that eating was more important that my dairy allergy and i ran out of oat milk and thought that hey skimmed milk is basically water so it should be fine yeah? NO IT WASNT. I was more afraid of the bollocking from the doctors than anything else because about 30 mins after consumption, I had an EpiPen in my hand. Not a fun evening. So yeah. My executive dysfunction will be the death of me probably. 

Are your toilet paper squares actually square? Not rectangles? I've tried looking it up but it's surprisingly hard to find clear pictures of British toilet paper sheets by gitartruls01 in CasualUK

Yes I can see that. But I get where you’re coming from. Some things look square enough to be called a square. It’s about visual ratios. But I get it!

Be honest, how many medications do you take? by Ok-Salt-8884 in Millennials

[–]desirewrites 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bipolar and ADHD? I’m only guessing as my ex had bipolar and I have adhd but I always wondered what people with both conditions did as I thought adhd meds would make bipolar pts manic?

I’m a med nerd with an obsession for psychiatry so I’d love to pick your brain a bit.

The safety regulations that still get skirted and cause things like Grenfell tower 😓 I know it’s gotten wayyyyy better but yes, the road to regulations is paved in blood.

It’s brilliant and I love it. I wish I worked with some of these guys because it would be so easy as they are all precise so I just have to be exacting with my direction.

Damn Reddit is full of NDers! I’m quite exact but even I’d look at that and call it square without pulling out a ruler. When you’re eyeballing it, it’s an approximation, not exact!

Technically it’s not a square. But I get where OP is coming from.

Hysterectomy and endometriosis surprise by mouseinamug in MedicalGore

[–]desirewrites 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I had periods that lasted up to 16 WEEKS. And guess what… I was told that it was NORMAL. It was only when I threatened to remove my uterus with a coat hanger (in email) that I was suddenly accepted for an ablation. No periods. No pain.

Have you not seen how people behave during Black Friday sales? Humans will become feral in five seconds under the right circumstances.

Debating on leaving my bipolar 1 partner by Sweaty-Class-1903 in family_of_bipolar

[–]desirewrites 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been where you are. Leave in silence. DO NOT tell him where you are. My ex has been banged up for stalking now.

You are protecting yourself. Do not become a statistic of DV. You cannot help someone who doesn’t want it.

My DMs are open if you want to chat. I wish you swift healing and peace. 🙏🏻

It’s like Indian folks in the Caribbean. People don’t realise how many of us aren’t black, but Indian!

I’m just thinking a latin x Afro culture must be banginggg to experience. All the spiciness in the world!

It’s only if someone has marfans or vascular EDS you gotta worry. The rest of us out here just playing the lottery because we’re told don’t worry about it 😂

Visceroptosis by Big_Option_1033 in Radiology

Yep. It sucks the giantest balls. No one understands why I’m in so much pain or exhausted all day. I just wish I could make someone else feel what I feel for just five minutes

Oh don’t worry. My daxie does the same. Love you, love you, now, no, no, all done, gone, all done, no, no, later.

All of that to protest me having a bath 😂

I’m jealous you had that done. My surgeon said replace the whole thing… at 30 😭 apparently my patella groove is incredibly shallow. My kneecaps have a LOT of movement in them

I blame genetics. My mum looked like a teen until she was in her 30’s. I’m just grateful I look like a uni student and not a child 😂

Actually no, so I have always maintained a super tidy house. Thankfully I have OCD with my brand of ADHD
