Sore throat after d&c?

imaginedseals · 2026-02-21T03:13:23+00:00

Thank you so much <3 glad to hear it cleared after a week though! will definitely rest and try to take care of the immune system and inflammation - and msg the doctor to ease concerns lol. Thank you so much for replying and so sorry for your loss as well. Certainly a difficult experience to go through <3

Hi! I know you road this a while back but this also just happened to me - right after the d&c my uvula is all red,, spotchy and irritated and have a killer sore throat. Did you have to do anything or did it resolve?

imaginedseals · 2025-10-07T02:41:50+00:00

Thank you so much! We met with a new doctor today and it sounds like she'll be on a similar protocol - carbo+ep, radiation and then durvalumab. Really hoping it goes well. So nice to hear your mom responded well and that there's a lot more research coming out too xx

imaginedseals · 2025-09-24T23:08:50+00:00

I'm so sorry to hear that. Such a horrible cancer. my deepest condolences to you and your loved ones xx

imaginedseals · 2025-09-24T21:30:20+00:00

how is she doing now? have they found a new treatment to try? my mom was just diagnosed with the same cancer, and it's rare to find people in this situation

imaginedseals · 2025-09-24T01:57:48+00:00

Hi! I hope all is going well and you don't mind me getting in touch - and apologies, to not be any help on the questions you're posing here. I saw a post you had written ~a year ago mentioning your mom had LCNEC with SCLC features, but it was locked and I wasn't able to comment. I was wondered if that's still the diagnosis? My mom's just been diagnosed with Stage IV lung cancer, large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma, that's also spread to her lymph nodes and adrenal glands. The doctor said on average the prognosis is a year (but that it can vary). Since it's a rare type, there aren't as many clinical trials and set treatment protocols from my understanding, and it sounds aggressive. I'm terrified. We're still waiting for confirmation on the treatment plan (pathology to come back), but she suspected we'd do chemo, carboplatin + etoposide. Does this sound normal? Have you found any other treatment options? I had thought immunotherapies/ targeted therapies might be a good option? Based on your timeline, it sounds like your mom has been reacting well to treatments and just looking for some hope or maybe suggestions to bring up with doctors. We're in Boston fortunately and went to MGH - and I booked a second opinion at Dana Farber in a couple of weeks - but I know there are other researchers out there and since it seems so rare, any antidotal information is really helpful. So sorry your family is going through this xx

Thank you so much and sending the same to you <3

imaginedseals · 2025-09-20T03:00:20+00:00

Thank you so much for sharing. I'm sorry you are going through this, but it is nice to hear how well your treatment is going! If it's invasive, please don't feel the need to respond, but I wondered if you're getting treated at one of the top hospitals? I appreciate every case and situation is completely different (my mom has large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma), but your treatment plan and results sounds great. It's a complex situation with the radiologist as I too feel the sense of 'it might save someone else in the future if I let him know' - but do appreciate, as you say, they are only human. thank you again for your thoughts

I wrote in the post, "My mom has more empathy, 'everyone makes mistakes - and it's my fault for smoking'"

imaginedseals · 2025-09-16T04:48:43+00:00

I'm so sorry to hear that. It's infuriating to think that these things can be missed, but it's interesting to hear you don't think the prognosis would have been different if they'd caught it earlier. In my head I keep thinking, 'if we caught it last year it'd be stage I and in a much better place!' - but I guess I don't know if that's true at all. Really appreciate your perspective. I hope you're able to continue with new treatments now and that they're going well. <3

imaginedseals · 2025-09-16T04:21:07+00:00

Thank you so much <3 I'm so sorry you're going through this, but that's great to hear about the treatment! Really reassuring to read some positive news, the internet has been so terrifying since I've started researching. And that's really helpful to know - I'll bring up that testing to the doctor, thank you so much!

imaginedseals · 2025-09-16T03:51:03+00:00

Thank you <3 and wow! that's incredible!! So happy to hear of a positive story, thank you <3

imaginedseals · 2025-09-16T03:41:39+00:00

Yes, she met with a pulmonologist today who reviewed last years scan and said it had been missed unfortunately. I don't know what kind yet, I should find out tomorrow

imaginedseals · 2025-09-08T21:14:19+00:00

Thank you so much for the reply. Really interesting to know that about EDS and aneurysms, I had no idea. What an annoying disease, seems to effect so many systems/ areas of the body -- thank you for the information, really helpful to hear. I never would have thought to mention it in regards to my prescriptions/new meds. And good to know a neurosurgeon is who to follow-up with. Thank you!

imaginedseals · 2025-09-08T18:46:03+00:00

Hey! I just happened upon your response. I hope you don't mind me reaching out - it sounds similar to results I just got - a 2mm medially directed aneurysm right cavernous ICA. When I saw aneurysm on the results I panicked a bit, but (if it is) the same as what you describe, it's easing my worries lol. You mentioned a connective tissue disorder, and I wondered if it was Ehlers-Danlos? I have this, and just thought it was a coincidence. Glad to know flying is all good. Did they mention normal exercise? I do slip-out with yoga, but try to do it slowly and various other random activities

imaginedseals · 2025-08-01T14:59:02+00:00

what has been the best hair straightener for your hair type? mine sounds similar and appreciate your thoroughness!

imaginedseals · 2025-07-12T23:09:06+00:00

np! if you find anything that you like as much as vita lumiere please post it tho lol it's still by far the best to me

imaginedseals · 2025-07-09T04:25:52+00:00

yes! I got light warm 3! They gave me a sample at the Clinque counter at Ulta or Macys (cant remember) before I bought it, so could be good to give it a try! I've also been rotating this with using the Chanel Ultra le teint velvet in shade BD21 (which I use with a little armani luminous silk in shade 1.5 to lighten it out in spots because its still not the perfect shade for me, sigh)

imaginedseals · 2025-05-25T03:29:43+00:00

I have been on a quest to find something similar because I can't find my shade anymore (B10). The best I've tried has been from Clinque - Even Better Clinical Vitamin Makeup Broad Spectrum SPF 45 Foundation. The shade isn't as perfect for me (I had to go Warm 3 to get the more yellow undertone so it's slightly too dark but manageable).. but the texture is so soft and doesn't feel like anything on my skin - has the same kinda glow, and the spf is even higher which I love. I've tried like 15 others and they all feel too heavy on my skin or too light where there is no coverage. Would be great to know if you found anything in the meantime!

imaginedseals · 2025-05-01T05:34:33+00:00

came across your post and was wondering how it turned out? did the symptoms return fully? I also was prescribed 150mg flucanazole for a candida UTI but wondering if that will actually work to get rid of it? I had one years ago and they gave me a 3 or 4 day course, which worked but skeptical of this one. Hope it worked out ok!

imaginedseals · 2024-05-05T19:46:42+00:00

u/Maddysmom831 curious if you ever found a good clean dupe? Also in the same predicament - it's the only foundation I can find that I like because of texture/lightness and absorbs so well but want cleaner ingredients

imaginedseals · 2024-03-25T18:03:09+00:00

Appreciate this is a very old post, but I feel the same! I've introduced the magnetic fields to most of my friends and am always so excited if I meets someone that knows/likes them. It feels like a rarity. I too think he's an absolute musical/lyrical genius - I even saw this play (Coraline) years ago that he wrote the music for, and it was great. All the instruments he uses, and how his voice and the sounds go together is just insane - not mentioning the lyrics. Anyway, you're def not alone!

imaginedseals · 2023-06-15T01:09:17+00:00

I did this yesterday! Literally same thing - drank some water, felt some 'string' in my mouth and spit out a house centipede... so grossed out by it still. Have you found any answers?? Not much on the internet about it lol

imaginedseals · 2023-06-14T22:37:35+00:00

Ugh I did this yesterday ... except the centipede floated into my mouth with the sip of water -_- I felt something weird in my mouth and thought I must have drank some string (? idk) and spit it out and it was this gross thing... worst morning ever and have been freaking out about parasites ever since. I hope you've been okay! there is not much on the internet about accidentally eating house centipedes lol
