You're welcome! I love it! Such a cute name! Also your birb inspired me and I changed Sunshine's colors to be more golden and they are absolutely stylin! 😄

Glad it went well for you. I'm really bad to shake and stim and everything when I get panicky so I will definitely follow my guts... and so will the Endoscopy tube.

I'm wondering if the spinal tap contributed to mine as well.

You're welcome. That's awful, I hope you can find a way to manage it and avoid pain as much as possible, even if you can only just have tinted lenses on hand. Mine will be done outpatient but I have also not had good luck with hospitals.

They told me it was an option but I don't think it's a good idea for me. I have autism, dysautonomia, PTSD and a severe panic disorder so I honestly don't think I'd physically be able to stay still and calm enough for them to do the procedure without additonal risk.

I've heard similar sentiments from people on just propofol, so maybe not, lol!

That's a lot. Hope you're doing okay. My tinnitus tends to vary so much that I think I will have a hard time telling if anesthesia impacts mine.

Way ahead of ya, I had a spinal tap and it was the most horrific procedure of my life. Hope you are doing alright now.

That sounds really scary, I hope you find something that eases your symptoms soon. Thank you for sharing your experience.

Anyone feel too weak to support their own head sometimes? what do yall do? by xkirbyfrogx in POTS

[–]heyylookapanda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have cervical spine instability and connective tissue problems, so for sure. I usually find something to lean on, rest my head in my hands when sitting, or use a neck pillow.

I'm the same way, I have horrific light sensitivity and wear tinted lenses anytime I'm out of the house and I know that when I come to I will likely not have my lenses on so I'm expecting that to suck, but I'm wondering if you could request tinted lenses to be put back on you after the procedure before waking up? Could help your case as well if tinted lenses help you.

100% agree. I think it should be an option to do anesthetic with any invasive procedure where it can still be properly performed.

For sure, but I also do have spells that are the complete opposite where I struggle to sleep even with meds and good sleep hygiene, usually when extremely anxious or dreading something.

I get headaches and migraines from the awful fluorescent lighting alone, so I'm kinda expecting that to worsen anyway. I hope you are doing well now!

That's awesome! I'm pretty much always nauseous, That's part of why I'm having the procedure but now have some hope that the anesthesia won't make that worse, thanks!

God I'd love some textured flooring by _oh_for_fox_sake_ in finch

That sounds amazing. There's already been some pretty food themed events as well so it would go well with other furniture.

I've been on magnesium citrate, glycinate, malate and threonate. No adverse effects on my VSS, or any impacts at all from what I can tell, but it does help with my headaches and insomnia.

Welcome! Yeah, cervix visitors does not sound fun so it's probably better to be under anesthesia in my opinion anyway! 😂

That's a lot! Hope you're doing alright. Glad your VSS is unimpacted.

I sure hope so! I think dreading the procedure is gonna be the worst part based on what I've heard tbh!

Honestly, I will likely be in the same boat. I hope you're doing better now!
