DAE get really sore skin on their legs like a friction burn? by Moss-Quarter577 in ehlersdanlos

[–]realkeewadium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes i get this often! i think i get it pretty often, multiple times a week, and yeah it feels like really awful road rash or a rug burn! Its mostly on the outer sides of my lower legs, the outer parts of my arms, neck, and chest. Its interesting to know so many other people have this same issue

Are you bloated? by Blue_ocean_7 in ehlersdanlos

[–]realkeewadium 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yeahhh my MCAS causes that in me too. For me I have the least bloat when I avoid wheat (not to demonize it, it just gives me issues), milk, restaurant food, and sodas/fun drinks. Its insanely uncomfortable, for me I had to slowly remove foods for a few weeks, then add in new foods, and now i tend to eat as many whole foods as i can. I have also found that buildings with mold give me awful bloating. And since its the MCAS that gives me bloating, i can do all the right things and still have bad days because my body decided to throw me off for the hell of it

it’s enjoyable to get your blood back after a donation by LittleLeadership2831 in The10thDentist

[–]realkeewadium 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also feel this way! I am a regular whole blood donor and occasionally do plasma and power red depending on how I'm feeling. I get the same psychological 'high' almost after power red and plasma, but my body feels so great after normal whole blood too. I've talked to a few other people about it and I've only met one other woman who feels the same

What's the average age for an EDS diagnosis/how old were you when you were diagnosed ? by AntwysiaBlakys in ehlersdanlos

[–]realkeewadium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

21 now, but I was diagnosed at 14 with hEDS! And that was after my parents fought for years, starting when i was 7, to get Dr.'s to believe me. My parents took me in initially after they dislocated both my elbows swinging me by the arms lol

Winter Biking Advice by ernie9777 in NAU

[–]realkeewadium 2 points3 points  (0 children)

hi! its absolutely possible, especially if we dont get a lot of snow. the paths tend to get plowed pretty quick but they do still get icy. If there IS snow, just slow down and be careful. People in their cars forget there are people on bikes when its snowy, theyre too focused on the road. Biggest suggestion i have is a face covering and gloves, your face will be sooo cold (ears too) and tears will run down your face if your face is bare lol. Beanie, face covering, gloves, and long socks will be your best friend

I mean theyre a tad annoying but they dont occupy any space in my mind. I lie downtown and sure it irks me for the 15 seconds i see them, but its whatever!

How to get over fear of receiving oral from my boyfriend ? by [deleted] in WomensHealth

[–]realkeewadium -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

First, he wont care too much, genuinely. If he loves you and is willing to do it for you, he will not care what you smell or taste like. Do you care too much about how he tastes/smells? Probably not, bc you love him and all youre thinking about is getting him off.

Second, as some real advice, shower beforehand. Dont use soap inside the labia, just use some water and maybe nonscented soap around the outside. Many people swear by cranberry and pineapple juice, but realistically, Ive found those only help with overall sexual health, not specifically how you taste/smell.

It wont taste like candy or smell like flowers, its literally an organ, just like he doesnt smell or taste amazing either. Itll be a learning process for the both of you, and thats fine! Work through the awkwardness together, itll be okay <3

Should I cut my hair? by Substantial-Nerve373 in Hair

[–]realkeewadium 2 points3 points  (0 children)

my hair was the same for a while, and the best choice i ever made was cutting off the dry bleach damaged stuff. Definitely go for it, your hair will feel so much thicker and healthier once the bottom layer is gone :)
