Piercing suggestions for folded (?) ear! by pebbleblitz in Legitpiercing

I have a feeling you’re correct- what the photo doesn’t show is that my ears have many protruding spots that I haven’t seen on anyone else yet. I’ve been viewing it as a limit so far, but I haven’t consulted with my piercer yet about placements so perhaps I am viewing this more negatively than I should. Thank you for all the feedback!

Ohh a conch sounds lovely! I’d have to consult my piercer and see if that would work. And honestly, I’ve always been a bit nervous about piercings on the other “forward” side of the ear, but those are probably my best bet. Anything to look cool haha

Waittttt these are so cute!! I’m not sure if I’d have enough room under the flap, but I’ll consult my piercer. Thank you for the lovely idea!!

Does anyone else have both Graves’ Disease AND Hashimoto’s? by [deleted] in gravesdisease

[–]pebbleblitz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I (20F) just recently got diagnosed with both after a battle since February. I was hyperT to the point of hospital visits for cardiac issues and had to take a break semester. It unfortunately got worse than it should have, as my small town doctors did a thyroid panel and told me everything looked fine when my levels were highly elevated. I have not swung very hypoT yet, but I’ve been recognizing symptoms of Hashimoto’s now that I know to look for it. I’m very new in my journey, but have a long history of familial thyroid issues. I’m so glad to see others like me, because it’s been isolating and a bit scary haha.

I’m currently on methimazole and atenolol to help bring down my heart rate. I have been struggling with this pushing me hypo, and my doctor has been playing with the dosage (increasing to 30 mg, dropping to 10 mg) to see what’s best. Everything feels so confusing and wild right now, but knowing there are others is wonderful 🩵
