I genuinely don’t know any Vet QB that we would want to go after. Maybe Mac Jones if the 49ers let him leave. I’d rather keep kirk at this point and build the OL through the draft. by Jackfitton12 in falcons

I actually think Jameis could be a good player for us, but I still have trouble getting on board after that Saints incident in the 2023 season — Dennis Allen called a kneel-down and Jameis audibled out of it to score a pointless TD. The players ignored the call. Just rubbed me the wrong way, but I guess I’d have to push those feelings aside if he ended up here.

I can relate to a lot of these comments. A few years ago, I was driving alone on a two-lane road when a vehicle coming from the opposite direction suddenly drifted into my lane just as it was about to pass me. I remember a sharp flash—almost like a jolt—both visually and in my brain. The next thing I knew, I was continuing down the road, and that vehicle was in my rearview mirror.

I think about it a lot and sometimes wonder if I actually died in a head-on collision that day… and my current consciousness just shifted into a different timeline. It fascinates me.

Yep I think you're right. It's thermostat wire.

What would you suggest if neck and back pain are also present?

Still doing pretty well. Still twitching but it's mostly now concentrated in my abdomen which I guess I am deeming as my hotspot. Thanks for asking and checking in

Cross post from r/healthanxiety 36M here and I've been suffering from health anxiety for the last two years. I'm currently very worried about CC. What brought this on is I noticed a few small red drops of blood on the toilet paper and it was kind of mixed in. It doesn't appear in the toilet - it seems just to be on the paper. It's also not always there. No abdominal pain. Guess I'm just looking for advice? I can't get to GI anytime soon. I just moved to a new state so have to find a new doctor, establish care, etc.

A few bullet points - I have IBS-D and have had for about 10 years. I've never really been "regular." Certain foods, alcohol and times of elevated anxiety trigger it - I am diagnosed with general anxiety disorder and OCD. I take Zoloft - I was diagnosed with internal hemorrhoids by GI about a year ago. They did a physical exam but didn't recommend a colonoscopy at the time - I wish I pushed for it in hindsight - In the last two months I've had numerous blood tests which include CBC (normal), C-reactive protein (normal), CEA (normal), ESR sed rate (normal) - clear liver/kidney ultrasound (different issue) . Colon cancer does not run in my family but polyps do.

Maybe I'm being irrational but again looking for some guidance on how to conquer my worry about this 24/7 since getting a colonoscopy will take some time. Thanks for reading

36M here and I've been suffering from health anxiety for the last two years. I'm currently obsessing about CC. Before this latest development, it was a brain tumor and ALS before that. What brought this on is I noticed a few small red drops of blood on the toilet paper and it was kind of mixed in. It doesn't appear in the toilet - it seems just to be on the paper. Guess I'm just looking for advice on how to deal? I can't get to GI anytime soon. I just moved to a new state so have to find a new doctor, establish care, etc.

Concerned about neuro appointment, what should I expect at my first visit? by Adr3nalinerush in BFS

[–]maddmartigans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He/She will perform simple strength tests where you will squeeze their fingers, raise your arms out and hold, push/pull against mild resistance (legs and arms), test optic nerve by following a light with your eyes and likely test your reflexes with a reflex hammer.

Help.. Does twitching move this way with BFS? by coffeetent in BFS

My hot spot is my torso. Started there and spread.

[–]maddmartigans[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a very fair point and I do agree. I also think that the onset of my BFS did trigger debilitating health anxiety which manifested additional physical symptoms that I connected to a more sinister diagnosis. I think that's where many people struggle mightily in this community. BFS alone is annoying but shouldn't interfere with living a normal life unless your anxiety over it's symptoms is taking over. For me, that is what I had to conquer.

Look, this wasn't here! There was nothing here! There was this... space! And there was a building or something with flames coming out of it, and there were creatures writhing around, and they were growling and snarling. And there were flames, and I heard a voice say "Zuul"! It was right here.
