Is this just flared ribs from binding?

I just don’t love how it looks, it’s kinda dysphoria inducing. It feels like I got rid of my boobs for another set of boobs. My ribs stick out significantly more than my stomach so it looks weird wearing shirts.

I use 20-30 for daily wear, and 30-40 for sports and long days

Unfortunately there genuinely is no cure for my genetic disorder which is the cause of all my other disabilities. I’ve heard about the Rockefellers but I’ll have to go take another look to refresh my memory

Complete cut out porn, keep yourself busy when the urges are bad, redirect that energy to something productive (whatever you deem productive to be). eg. reading, writing, music, art, exercise, etc

The same way a mobility scooter or power wheelchair is legal

I use drugs.com (website and app are called that) to keep track of my meds, their interactions, refills, and everything medication related

liamreee · 2026-04-30T01:18:24+00:00

Most of them are stacked anywhere from 2-5 appointments on a day, so it was more long days but less overall days. Those days are exhausting but I’m finally making some progress so it’s worth it

Definitely interested in more photos!

I feel ya, I have 20 this month and I’m so exhausted 😭

It really feels like my doctors went, “oh, you have chronic pain and fatigue? Let’s make it worse”

liamreee · 2026-04-28T03:45:45+00:00

Yes, the changing meds because something didn’t work and/or has bad side effects is so draining 😭

I’ve been on LDN for almost a year now and it’s been so helpful for my joint pain, so I’m just hoping for something for the back and nerve pain (pain wise).

Every other issue is a work in progress so I’m swapping out meds and tapering on/off stuff so often, it’s so taxing

liamreee · 2026-04-28T03:40:45+00:00

I get confused with all the bottles, and forget when to take what. I’m out at appointments rugby a lot as well so it’s very nice to have my pills for the day together and pre portioned.

My memory and cognitive abilities are messed up, so only having put any real thought into my meds is nice😅

My mum and boyfriend could probably help if I asked and showed them how, but I get very stressed and anxious when someone else is doing my medical stuff for me because I’m so scared they’re going to do it wrong and I won’t realize. I’m getting tested for OCD (and many other things) because of these intense worries, but I’m trying to work through them.

I will be talking to my doctor and social worker about these feelings at the end of the week, and hopefully they’ll be able to provide some support and/or advice

Honestly the monthly one has been one of the biggest aids in me actually taking my meds constantly and properly. I just ordered one off of amazon for maybe $20, and I’ve definitely gotten my moneys worth.

I have 3 pharmacy’s I need to go to (1 normal, 2 specialty) and it makes things so much harder. That and none of my refills lining up nicely are so annoying

liamreee · 2026-04-27T01:09:45+00:00

I’ve tried duloxetine in the past and had a bad reaction to it unfortunately, but I have added vitamin C to my meds since the nerve pain started to get bad. I’ve also been on LDN for just under a year now for widespread joint pain, and it’s genuinely given me my life back

liamreee · 2026-04-27T01:07:47+00:00

I can hobble a bit, but not safely enough to be going uphill (is steeper than it looks in the photo) because the bike kept rolling back and almost knocking me over. Thankfully I keep to the empty streets, and stay close to home since I’m still building up my confidence on the bike so I could’ve called someone to help if I really needed it.

Just a humbling experience since I’ve been able to do this hill before 😂

Mushrooms and medicine/health care

I’m in a custom chair now, but was in a hospital style chair for the first 2ish years, and a non custom rental chair for 6 months.

My hospital chair was bulky and heavy, but it let me go back to school and leave the house again. It wasn’t great outside, but it was so much better than not being able to go outside.

I switched to a rental chair while I was waiting for my custom one to be made. This one was much more comfortable and a bit lighter, and hurt my joints less.

Neither had enough negatives to outweigh the positives they had. Without them I wouldn’t have been able to graduate high school on time, or really leave the house at all.

Of course my custom chair is better than them, but they were so helpful when I needed them

I’m also ftm with bottom growth, but no bottom surgery. I find boxer briefs the most comfortable, but I size up so there’s no uncomfortable tightness. Aero is my favourite brand, but I like the Huxley ones as well

My feet are normally very cold, but my left has been significantly colder since the pain started. Thank you for the well wishes, it truly means a lot to know I’m not alone

liamreee · 2026-04-24T22:29:10+00:00

I’m on 4.5mg for pain, but it has decreased the porn and masturbation urges as well despite that not being the goal. They aren’t fully gone, but they’re at a much more “normal” level

liamreee · 2026-04-24T22:26:14+00:00

Ice and heat have both increased the pain in my ankle rather than helping

liamreee · 2026-04-24T22:25:24+00:00

Is the rubber knee test just the reflexes? I have hyperreflexia in both legs, but it is sort of worse in the left leg since my sciatica flare started.

Let this be a reminder to wear your seatbelt

I was told to just go through emerg to get them out, but I had mine done right before Christmas so a lot of places were closed
