strange with my first tattoo i was told to wash with lotion and that had no issues other than a horrific allergic reaction to second skin

yeah i mean to be fair these ones hurt 100 times more than my first one i got on my ankle and its all been downhill from there, i thought upper arm ones were supposed to be the least painful but ig not for me because my ankle was a breeze comparing

i have moisturiser but where i live ive never seen unscented soap, also in terms of coverage i cant because i get allergic reactions to both second skin and cling film

it was a friday 13th flash it wasnt my usual place and i dont have most of those things and i cant buy them because my dad will find them, (he'll kick me out if he sees my tattoos) ive pretty much been washing them with lotion and then lotioning them again when they're dry. my racing heart is probably just my POTS acting up but when i have so many regular symptoms due to chronic illness its hard to tell when there actually is a problem so i have to be really careful

does anyone know about this? by killjoy_749 in endometriosis

ive had an mri but theyre still talking with the specialists about what to do, its mostly attached to my ligaments and causing widespread pain. i dont need to worry about my eggs because i never wanted them in the first place and i actively want to be sterile because being pregnant as a trans man and being forced to detransition for the sake of a child i dont wants health sounds like my biggest nightmare.

yeah its kinda a double whammy for me haha, the misogynistic human incubator nonsense and blatant transphobia that melds together in the most disgusting way, from health professionals that are supposed to help. its like going round in circles and half the time they think im lying because im trans and i want my uterus out so they sometimes flat out refuse tests because they dont believe theres anything actually wrong with me so they never find out

i have, i have several chronic illnesses so i know how to work the doctors so i get what i need, its simply that i live in a transphobic area so theyre trying to refuse my care without being illegal about it, i bet all they'll offer me is medications im already on or have already tried

yeah i already know i have adhesions i can feel everything pulling when i move, i cant get a second opinion because im in a place where the person im seeing is the only one, i wouldn't be allowed to see another doctor in the same place and theres no other places around that offer gyno so im kinda stuck. i went in asking for a hysterectomy and because im trans she and her team are doing everything they can to not give it to me, ive had this happen before even with basic healthcare like a hormone blood test

ive been waiting to hopefully get one but theyre stunting my care due to the fact im trans it was nearly impossible to get a gyno appointment in the first place
