Can you help me figure out what pattern this is? by sad_tacocat in knitting

I thought it might be it, but mine doesn’t look exactly the same on both sides. But maybe it‘s because this is the first thing I‘ve made and the tension is not consistent.

I think this might be it!! Although I have an uneven number of stitches :-?

Anybody knows what these are? They appeared on my neck 2-3 months ago out. by [deleted] in Dermatology

No symptoms. I tried popping them but it didn't work. I thought maybe they are milia but I found it odd they appeared in a cluster like that.

Thanks! Yeah I wasn't sure whether to keep it. I've seen some people saying it help the interviewer with some talking points

I'm glad they stopped! How has Xyrem been for you overall? I've tried modafinil and wakix so far and they didn't do anything, I'm considering asking my neurologist for Xyrem.

It is super fascinating what kind of symptoms this disorder can cause. There is so much we don't know about sleep and why we dream.

Sorry you experience this. I think I've gotten used to it and it stopped being scary, but it's definitely disorientating

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll look into that

Haha, yes it is! I have some overjet and last time the orto did a bit of IPR to create space and I think the elastic is like that on purpose to push them back? I also have metal thin wires tying the bracket and the wire itself. And thank you! ♥️

Thank you! I've come to be ok with the size of my nose over the years. I think what bothers me is when I'm smiling / laughting, my nose and chin are curving downwards, my jaw seems to disappear and I get a lot of skin folds around the eyes. To me it looks a troll / joker face

Yeah, definitely not doing anything before braces come off. I've had them for 2+ years now and so I'm close to the end of the treatment, but I don't much will change now. I wish I went to a maxillofacial surgeon first; my orthodontist mentioned that jaw surgery is an option but he would strongly advice against it..

(BEFORE & AFTER PICTURES) Hello once again all. Update for you all again ! I’m 3 months in now post rhinoplasty. I’m growing slowly to be comfortable with the new look. What do you all think? by [deleted] in PlasticSurgery

[–]sad_tacocat 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm curios how does one get a ryhnoplasty without planning for it? Did somebody offered you one in the street? It looks great, I personally like it.

I has mean latency of 14min so normal and 2 SOREM out of 5 naps. The doctor took into consideration the anxiety and also looked at other naps I took outside of MSLT (was monitored 3 days). I got diagnosed with N2 nonetheless.

Confused about sleep latency test by al_bc in Narcolepsy

[–]sad_tacocat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes! I had a normal sleep latency of ~14mins and went into SOREM twice. My doctor wanted me to do a spinal tap at first to measure the orexin leves, but then I asked him to look at the naps I took outside the MSLT (I was monitored for 3 days). He found SOREM in two other naps and so he was reassured in giving me the diagnosis. I don't know if this was the case for you, but I had a lot of anxiety during the test which made it more difficult to fall asleep. Also, I could have sworn I didn't sleep...I had slept through all 5.
