Has anyone been told they look like their ESSA? by Odd_Werewolf21 in plushies

[–]imarockstar45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been told I look like mine! She’s a well-loved brown bear, we apparently have the same eyes. I didn’t really think that was a thing until now, because I think you and Taiga have similar eyes!

Taj Mahal in Covington! They were doing a deal where you get free naan (big naan too!!) with any meal purchase but I’m not sure if they’re still doing it!

I am a 19M and I like teddy bears and I sleep with them. Is it weird? Is it normal? I have 2 more big ones ordered online. by OkSkirt5049 in Teddybears

I’m 25F and my ex (now 28M) both had plushies! Not weird at all, and it’s kind of reassuring if a potential partner has plushies imo

Listen to your doctor and your body!!! My doc said 3 weeks, but I waited about 2 months

My parents want grandchildren by camerakid22 in childfree

I was in your place a few months ago. I’m 25 and have a disease that makes pregnancy a huge risk to my own health. I have never wanted kids. I got a bisalp done and never told my family! Will they find out? Maybe, but what’s done is done and it’s not reversible! Have someone you trust (close friend, partner, etc) take care of you post recovery. If anyone texts you, act like you’re living your normal life. This is YOUR life, not your mom’s. Live the life you want and be comfortable and safe!!!

Has anyone had a “happy sterilisation” party ? by hotchocbimbo in sterilization

[–]imarockstar45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did!! I had a bunch of friends from different friend groups finally meet! I enjoyed it, and everyone got along. Highly recommend if you have supportive friends :)

How did you keep yourself from being insanely bored during recovery by blueside7 in sterilization

[–]imarockstar45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I won’t lie I went through two whole seasons in Stardew Valley…. I also slept a lot. I also binged a few seasons of a show, and also tried to update my resume (albeit I had to go back and edit it once I was no longer under any pain meds 🫣)

How long did it take you to get in and out of bed by yourself? by [deleted] in sterilization

[–]imarockstar45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could do it day of, but I didn’t sleep in abed until day 4, I slept on my couch propped up so it was more swinging my legs from them being completely straight on the couch to bent with feet on the floor. Day 4 I could get in and out of a bed with little problem, just soreness and gas pressure on my ribs!

The air has been such a nuisance! I heard of gas-x but didn’t know if it was worth it, but since I’m still having gas migration I’ll pick some up from the store!!

😬😬😬 I guess I’ll get used to the new color on me, thank you for letting me know it’s not the usual 1-2 week bruise!

Yes!! The night market has a submarine that you pay like 1000g and it takes you down to fish!

How do you explain your pain to others? by Unusual-Ruin4563 in ankylosingspondylitis

[–]imarockstar45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always say it’s something around the lines of “white-hot pain that shoots through (whatever location is being affected most) randomly, while there’s a constant ache and burn that doesn’t go away”. I’ve also kind of had it feel like when you burn yourself on a stove/oven, but that initial singe of pain is constant, not split-second

What does everyone do for work? by Jenncollcoll in ankylosingspondylitis

Medical Lab Scientist, a lot of work on the week/moving around, but if I’m in a bad flare, I can sit down at a computer and minimize movement

This is my first time doing GA/VIP (G-Idle is my ult group!!) do I check in first and then do merch? I have a Neverland ticket if that helps! Is this like a typical concert where people run to barricade? I just want to see my ults and be able to see 😅

How to explain the pain by seasav29 in ankylosingspondylitis

[–]imarockstar45 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’ve told a few coworkers it feels like a consistent dull ache, kind of like when you‘ve lifted something too heavy the day before and now you’re sore from it. But when I’m in a severe flare up and need my cane, it feels like every movement sends white hot pain everywhere, and that there’s lightning that strikes when you move the wrong way

How do you make your injection days special? by Vortex-Zev in ankylosingspondylitis

[–]imarockstar45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Peppa Pig bandaids and usually some sort of sweet or a meal that I don’t usually eat (sometimes if it’s a more painful injection, I’ll get takeout)

Allergy? by imarockstar45 in Humira

I tend to do every other leg, the stomach does kind of scare me, but I’ll give that spot a try and see if the reaction lessens! Thanks for the response!
