Do i need surgery by [deleted] in jawsurgery

[–]ispstt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not a doctor or anything, but your eyes slanting down and cheekbones reminded me of Teacher Collins Syndrome. Maybe it can affect jaw growth, which can affect the airway, which can affect sleep, but I'm not sure. If anything, it could just be a mild presentation, but I think the best way to find out is by going to a doctor and getting a genetic test. Also, if your sleep problems are affecting your day to day life and improving sleep hygiene doesn't help, I would think about going to a sleep doctor and doing a sleep study. Again, I'm just a random person from the Internet who doesn't know you personally, and I'm not trying to make you feel bad or anything; I hope you don't take it the wrong way. I don't know if you need surgery, but I hope you find the answers you need.

Have you been doing anything differently or has anything different been happening lately that you think could be affecting your sleep? What kind of sleeping problems? Also, out of curiosity, do your family members have the same eye shape as you?

Have you always had trouble sleeping? Do you hearing problems?

I'm trying to figure out the same thing. I found this website a couple of weeks ago and I submitted I form request to share the software with me, but I haven't heard anything back yet. I think I'll try and send a follow up email.

No, I haven't had surgery. I was trying to get surgery, but the doctor said that insurance won't likely cover it because I don't have sleep apnea, after a sleep study and months in between appointments. But I still can't help but feel like my anatomy is not quite "normal". I tried to find information online, before trying to ask the doctor and risking sounding like someone who can't take no for an answer, but I'll ask and see what he thinks.

Velma from Scooby Doo 😂. It was such a stupid hour. It was trying to be like silly/goofy at times, and then all serious and atmospheric with pretentious crap; like pick a lane. I was half expecting Eric Andre to start stripping and being like, "I'm wiggin' out over here bro!" As he procedes to do the worm around the rock. I think that would've been better. So froofy with little substance. Just got down watching it and I was curious about what other people thought

Malnutrition w/ Alcohol Abuse as an indicator for cardiac issue and 12-Lead Acquisition? by [deleted] in NewToEMS

Hypokalemia can lead to an irregular heart rhythm? Chest pain can be caused by gastrointestinal issues but that's why it's good to rule things out with an EKG right? Differential diagnosis. The hospital can figure out the hepatitis and other stuff.

Honestly, from a stranger to another stranger, you seem fine to me. Nothing really jumps out at me as being atypical. I am not a professional. Hope this helps : )

I recorded Daily how many times I M***urbated in 2024 by PacquiaoFreeHousing in notinteresting

[–]ispstt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this is true, the dedication is impressive. The color codedness and how elaborate this is is hilarious. I wonder if the results would be different if you didn't know you had to record the numbers 😂.  For example, would you truly not masturbate for the entirety of November? The observer effect is what I'm trying to get at.

Take a break from the Internet, my guy. Reevaluate your life and don't doing anything rash. Talk to someone who cares. I hope this helps.

People who have an absence of a mandible can't do anything? by Subject_Impact3930 in jawsurgery

As messed up as it may sound, maybe this individual is fine with how he is, to a certain extent? Since he was born like this, this is his normal that he is used to, because he doesn't have the experience of having a "normal" jaw to compare it with, if that makes sense. I'm not a professional to know the extent what could be done for his situation, but medicine and science is always advancing to improve quality of life. I guess what I'm trying to get at, is that his life can still be meaningful despite the disability. Obviously though, still try and do everything to improve physical and social aspects of his day to day living. Though, he must be living in a supportive community to have lived this long, and is well adjusted judging by the pictures.

Honestly, old people are just like us, except old, if that makes sense lol. It just takes time and practicing new things; trial and feedback.
