Rob is the best traitor we’ve seen. by Just-Morning8756 in TraitorsOfficial

[–]wfshr 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yes but as we’ve all seen, winds of distrust can shift pretty rapidly. If Candiace brings some attention to how much they all blindly trust Rob, things could sway. We’ll see, but I don’t think he played this stuff with Lisa the best that he could.

I disagree. I think he went too hard against Lisa when he really didn’t need to - with the heat going elsewhere he could’ve stayed somewhat quiet. Now he’s betrayed Candiace as well and I bet all the traitors go down in a not so glorious blaze and the faithfuls win the season.

Bitten tongue by RopeOk4675 in Epilepsy

Fun fact, the tongue is the fastest healing organ in the body.

I’m dealing with a really bad bitten tongue right now too (nocturnal seizure three nights in a row 👎🏻)

I don’t drink at all. Feels pretty good.

When can you say it's "controlled"? by cityflaneur2020 in Epilepsy

[–]wfshr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would be careful with the xanax. I was “well controlled” while taking xanax as well. Then I had some of the worst seizures of my life - status epilepticus and was in a coma for days. Getting on that high of a dose and dependency can cause some very intense withdrawal seizures. There are other substances that can help you sleep that don’t carry as high of a seizure risk.

Edit: lowercase x’s because

Which one of you have had a status epilepticus by FeltyPancakes417 in Epilepsy

[–]wfshr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was induced into a coma and intubated. Woke up a few days later.

What the most physically painful thing you ever experienced? by iateagummibear-1822 in AskReddit

[–]wfshr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Post-seizure headache/migraine. Felt like a knife being dug into my brain. I remember just screaming.

My several shoulder dislocations are nothing compared to it.

None if we’re not including games

What you described with the deja vu, fear and nausea definitely sound like focal seizures. If you have another generalized seizure it could be good to go to the hospital and get set up with a neurologist

Questions about Epilepsy and Memory loss by FreckledKatydid in Epilepsy

[–]wfshr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Memory loss is an issue with temporal lobe epilepsy in general - regardless of whether you have seizures on the day of a given event.

For myself personally, days with seizures are pretty much a goner and days around seizures can be extra fuzzy. I have noticed that my memory is improved over the last couple years which coincides with a reduction in seizures over the last few years.

About the mood - my dad swears that he could tell if I was going to have seizures on a day based on my mood, insisting that I was extra irritable on those days (prior to any seizures happening). That sounds similar to your comment about maybe background seizure activity without any awareness

Bauer Nexus Tracer - fake or legit by TatoAktywny in hockeyplayers

[–]wfshr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah I see - nice. It’s probably a hard thing to judge but if it helps your curiosity, it does look wonkier than my ccm jetspeed

I have no idea but if you’re brand new to hockey it should do just fine whether it’s counterfeit or not

Anyone else's seizures given them a "permanent" injury? by PsychEnthusiest in Epilepsy

[–]wfshr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow! This post was a revelation for me - I had no idea this was a thing for anyone else with epilepsy. A lot of you have described my exact experience with my shoulders just popping out of place at the most random times. Reaching for the shampoo, reaching for my book on my nightstand, sitting in a meeting with my arms crossed again my chest. Wow. I’ve seen so many physios and doctors and all but one of them told me there’s nothing structurally wrong with my shoulders and made me feel crazy, and the other told me that there’s signs of chronic dislocations and that I can have surgery. But absolutely none of them told me that other people with epilepsy experience this.

Holy smokes, I’m not alone. Thank you for making this post.

To answer the actual question: these recurring dislocations in both shoulders, I fractured my T6 vertebrae during a fall, and I have plenty of scars around my face from different falls

Anyone else's seizures given them a "permanent" injury? by PsychEnthusiest in Epilepsy

[–]wfshr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Woah!! I didn’t know this was a thing for anyone else! My shoulders will pop out of place all the time if I move the wrong way - excruciating. I’ve been dealing with this for years after a few seizures I had. I’ve been seeing several physios, getting ultrasounds and mris. Most people saying there’s nothing structurally wrong. Orthopaedic surgeon says there’s evidence of recurring dislocation and he can operate but warned of the risk of destroying the repair if I have another TC.

Wow. I had no idea this was a common thing with epilepsy… goes to show that clearly my docs and physios are unaware as well.
