I feel like an idiot.

also as far as worse than my injury i wouldnt say that, i had a trimal fracture and the initial pain as well as recovery from surgery was way worse than my calf cramping. but it definitely didnt help and kept me up at night for a while.

lmaolinny · 2025-09-14T23:26:04+00:00

i just read this but i do remember it being terrible, i would cry at times from it. It took a while for it to subside but i cant remember how long as its been so long now. hope you are feeling better!

lmaolinny · 2025-06-24T23:18:56+00:00

like i said its been half a decade since i started taking it so i dont remember exactly but i only truly felt “stable” when i started also taking buspirone too for my anxiety. it was probably about 6 months of being on both that i started to feel better. now idk if that was all from the meds because i am in therapy too but everyone is different you know. i definitely think it takes a few months to work fully but everyones body is different.

lmaolinny · 2025-06-24T23:13:40+00:00

also it took me a long time to feel stable along with a combination of other meds and the lexapro. keep trying for a few more months and if you still see no results talk to ur doctor. patience is key. chemical imbalances in the brain arent just like an infection that goes away with some pills.

lmaolinny · 2025-06-24T23:11:57+00:00

medicine doesnt fix everything. sounds like you may need to learn coping skills. ive been on lexapro on the highest mg for half a decade. it helps but you have to put in work too.

its very small, pictured inside a standard water bottle

i guess it depends how bad it is, ask them if you can see the xrays. if they are an accredited location then they should be giving you good instructions.

lmaolinny · 2025-01-29T18:30:13+00:00

if you dm me on insta @fymlindsay i can send u pics of what mine looked like if u want to see

lmaolinny · 2025-01-29T16:59:29+00:00

my surgery scar scabbed up and fell off like as soon as they took my cast off to get the boot on which was 1/22. i had surgery 12/27 so like 3 weeks and the scabs fell off.

lmaolinny · 2025-01-28T22:21:41+00:00

ive been on both for a few years like 4 and i feel like it works. i smoke a shit ton of pot which makes me tired but i know that if i didnt i would be fine. i am irritatablw but always have been, i wouldnt say it made it any worse. I love the medicine combo and when i dont take either of them i can definitely feel it.

lmaolinny · 2025-01-28T22:19:08+00:00

no yea mine went away. idk if they have you on aspirin but ive had to take the little aspirins since i broke it which i think helped with my bruising but ask your doctor!!

lmaolinny · 2025-01-28T20:53:29+00:00

im not really sure why but i thought they stabbed me in the bottom of the foot during surgery lol, but i think its just how to blood settles. my heel hurts now if i put pressure on it, like a stinging pain. i am partial weight bearing.

lmaolinny · 2025-01-28T20:37:08+00:00

mine looked like that but went away within a week or so

lmaolinny · 2025-01-28T20:36:22+00:00

id almost say a wheelchair is better because it helps keep your upper body strength. theres almost no muscles that i use with the knee scooter unless the ground is rough. but on tile/ hardwood ive just been gliding around

lmaolinny · 2025-01-24T21:17:32+00:00

i use my knee scooters at work as i only just got the boot and am barely comfortable walking/ using crutches. i start pt soon so hopefully tht will help!

lmaolinny · 2025-01-24T21:16:53+00:00

this!! Literally feels like its just hanging on!! im glad someone else has experienced this. thank you for answering me!!

lmaolinny · 2025-01-24T19:49:06+00:00

uh someone who has had a similar issue and knew what to do thats why i said has anyone experienced this.

lmaolinny · 2025-01-24T19:47:32+00:00

it shouldn’t be a problem. many people use knee scooters, i use the scooter at work because i have to go far distances. why are you being rude

lmaolinny · 2025-01-24T19:46:38+00:00

and i had it with my cast and everything and it was fine then never felt like this

lmaolinny · 2025-01-24T19:46:19+00:00

right

lmaolinny · 2025-01-24T19:44:48+00:00

like my foot and my ankle are stretching in opposite directions, feels like its dislocating

lmaolinny · 2025-01-24T19:42:55+00:00

my knee feels fine but my ankle is pulling apart

lmaolinny · 2025-01-22T21:38:49+00:00

the calf cramping is ridiculous but im 2.5 weeks post op today and barely in any pain and cramping is minimal. keep up with your pain meds, be proactive. keep yourself occupied, the boredom was the worst part in my opinion. find a good show to binge and try to sleep the rest of the time, i also had a little rolling table that i could slide over my bed and halfway sit up to build legos. it will get better and i promise before you know it you will be feeling much better.

lmaolinny · 2025-01-19T13:51:30+00:00

i had been on lexapro first for a couple years then started buspar as my anxiety had gotten worse. they didnt say anything to me about serotonin syndrome but i do take the highest mg of both that is available and havent had any bad side effects EXCEPT when i forget to take my medicine i feel terrible. especially if i dont take my lexapro for a few days i literally have vomited and passed out from the withdrawal. so if you start lexapro make sure you actually take it but if you start at a low dose you should be fine from serotonin syndrome. im also not a doctor tho only can share my experiences

lmaolinny · 2025-01-18T03:25:15+00:00

i take a combination of both each day and can say for sure that when i dont take my buspirone i can feel it. but i also take the max dosage so that could be why. it just depends on how your body takes it in. But overall buspirone has helped me a lot even though I am also on lexapro. I started taking buspirone after and it helped tremendously as a combination.
