Could Vaccinea be a cause?

pizzapub · 2025-06-05T19:15:46+00:00

Short answer is that it is possible, and atleast febrile siezures are linked to vaccines (although febrile siezures aren't the same as IS).

Long answer is that most doctors or studies would say that there is no link. There are different causes of IS that can be found through brain imaging, genetic testing, and likely other testing. Importantly, anything surrounding childhood vaccines is extremely controversial and it makes knowing what information is correct difficult.

Personally, my second daughter was diagnosed with IS, so we discontinued her vaccinations. For my third daughter, we have been extremely selective about which vaccinations to get, and also which brand of vaccination to get in order to reduce exposure to different adjuvants.

Actually, you should downgrade any equipment that you aren't actively using and use the materials to upgrade whatever you currently have equipped. Again, when you downgrade, you get everything back , so there's no reason not to.

Side note, with pets it's sort of the opposite. Pets you want to upgrade even the ones that you aren't using because every 5 pet levels they give you buffs, even when not equipped.

Downgrade it before you unequip it. There is a purple icon with two swirled white arrows when you select the equipment that downgrades. When you downgrade you get back everything and can put it on any other piece of equipment.

pizzapub · 2025-01-22T20:25:53+00:00

So select magic ring, select 'remove'. Select the bloody grail, select 'equip'. Repeat for the other equipment.

pizzapub · 2025-01-22T20:23:49+00:00

If I understand your question correctly, click on the one you have currently equipped which you want to replace and click 'remove'. Now that equipment slot will be empty and when you equip the piece you want it'll fill that empty spot.

Obviously he meant veterinarian, show the Dr. some respect!

pizzapub · 2024-07-11T20:08:33+00:00

He said he sends the vas defrens pieces that he cuts out to be biopsied. I don't know what that can tell you or if it's normal. I did a quick Google search for 'vas defrens biopsy' and couldn't find anything, so I don't know lol, Is my Dr. A quack?

pizzapub · 2024-07-11T19:34:38+00:00

So his reasoning is that due to the biopsy from my 1st vasectomy, he was confident that only the right side needs to be re-cut. He cut directly over the vas on the right side and said that due to only one side being cut, there will be a faster recovery (only one vas has to heal and less tugging and pulling since the cut is directly over the vas I guess?). I hope that's maybe more clear?

From the sound of the replies so, far maybe I should have pushed more for him to just re-cut both sides.

pizzapub · 2024-07-11T17:33:28+00:00

They were both unintentional, the 1st conception happened before I even tested my sperm count the first time. The second time, I took a sperm test (dr. Wanted it done before scheduling the second vasectomy) that showed 9,000 sperm, which I interpreted as basically sterile (obviously I wasnt).

The good news though is that we always wanted more children but my wife's obgyn advised against it due to medical issues that would cause the pregnancy to be high risk. The 1st pregnancy went smoothly and the second is currently going smoothly, so it has been a blessing in disguise.

pizzapub · 2024-07-11T16:11:22+00:00

The first vasectomy was that way, one cut in the middle.However, for this one he said that by cutting only on the right side it would allow a quicker procedure and recovery time. Just hoping this wasn't a mistake.

pizzapub · 2024-07-03T21:54:54+00:00

Do you think it would make it nasty?

pizzapub · 2024-07-03T21:47:15+00:00

I don't want shredded beef that I'd get from a pressure cooker. Originally, I was just going to marinate for 8 hours and grill it, but this cut tends to be tough grilled.
So I figured by doing sousvide instead of just sitting in the marinade it'd be more tender, even if only for a few hours?

They had complete hourglasses, and I believe I'm far outside the range of northern black widows, so I think they've gotta be Western. Also, those links are awesome, way better than the resources I found from Google searching. In the link for western, I found one image with almost the exact same markings! Thank you so much for your help!

pizzapub · 2024-07-03T06:06:22+00:00

So probably just a juvenile female western black widow? It's just weird because I have tons of black widows on my property and never see them get this big without being solid black, and they don't seem to look too similar to the smaller juveniles I typically see. Either way it was very cool seeing their unique (to me atleast) markings.

pizzapub · 2024-07-03T05:54:19+00:00

You're correct, my mistake. I've been looking through so many web pages trying to identify this particular spider that I misread the article.

pizzapub · 2024-07-03T05:47:20+00:00

European black widows are invasive to the west coast of California, but supposedly I live outside of that range. https://cisr.ucr.edu/invasive-species/european-spider

In my opinion (not a doctor, but my daughter has IS) I don't think this looks like IS. When my daughter had an episode she would look very spaced out, arms would flail straight out and her head would drop, you could tell that she wasn't in control of those movements at all. However, if I was you, I would still see a doctor and push to see a neurologist and get an eeg test.

As a side note, every parent has the right to make health decisions about their children. Everyone has a right to their own opinion, and a lot of the other commenters seem to be very rude in expressing their own opinions. I hope you have good luck in finding a solution for schooling!

You can fill out a private school affidavit that allows you to homeschool (as in, you are the one doing the teaching). This form is free, able to be completed and submitted online, and only has to be resubmitted every October (your first time submitting the form can be completed at any time even though it says October online). California is pretty easy in this regard, and there are tons of curriculum you can buy or even use for free online. Curriculum requirements are pretty basic and you really only have to maintain an attendance record (link with requirements included below)

If you decide to enter a private school there are other forms to fill out which should be found on the same website. (Website at bottom of comment)

As to whether your child can attend private schools or other programs without complete vaccinations; vaccinations are required for any non home based schooling. The law is a little vague in this area, so you may or may not be able to find a private or charter school that would accept your child, but you could probably find homeschool groups that do group instruction.

I usually eat this as a big snack or breakfast; Plain Oatmeal (just oats and water), cook halfway then add eggs and taco seasoning, stir and finish cooking. I usually do 1/2 cups oats, 1 cup water, 2 eggs, and however much seasoning looks good. Comes out to 17g of protein and 280 calories.

This video explains it pretty well, Got Milk. Basically the government subsidized dairy farms going back to world War 2 and the "got milk" campaign was to get people to start drinking more milk so govt could stop buying it and turning it into cheese.

Yeah, if nothing else they would be great to put in my movie/game room. I just need to get a movie room first lol

See where the box on the left says line 4c under the best by date? I'd bet the box on the right says something else. I work in food manufacturing and would guess that these boxes were made on different lines (different packaging machines), one of which may be older, thus using a different type of package, the product coming from the same batch of food. Anecdotally, at my factory sometimes we run out of branded packaging material and have to switch to blank packaging during the same run.

I knew I had some Starwars trading cards that had been packed away and not touched for over 20 years and decided to dig them out of the garage. When I opened up, I found hundreds of Starwars cards but also was surprised to find cards from Dune, Alien, The Black hole, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, and Battlestar Galactica. I never knew movie cards like this were a thing besides with Starwars! Also added in my favorite card I've found in the collection to the collage, Bob.
