Misread that as 'sphincter'.

'sphincter in my cubicle', even...

heather, i dont own tweezers, but there is a splinter remover in my hiking supplies first aid kit fyi and ffr

oh. i got that splinter out.

now i think i have one that i can't see deep inside the bendy area of my ring finger from that surf board accident last week. my finger is not healing and it is VERY sensitive at the joint like something is IN there....

- crawling, twitching sensation under my lower left eyelid. it's been a couple of days. maybe i have eye worms

-coughing
-sometimes phlegm comes up
-my breath feels hot and sort of has a sick-breath taste
-i can't get no sleep

upper respitory infection stevie.

when i stick my finger in my left ear i get a clicking noise and it's half really entertaining and half worrying

-scraped knee
-bruised arms
-missing id

name the symptoms you have been having

serious pain behind my right eye - fuck!

• chest pain
• weight loss
• fits of euphoria

r u in luv, l-u-v?

omg thats it

aw, best wishes g

my left eye has been twitching since halloween!!

I had some eye-twitch earlier this week for a few days. So annoying.

ive had bouts of crazy eye-twitching

its usually caffeine/stress/lack-of-sleep related

That's eyelid myokymia

totally lack of sleep and dehyd in my case, i think

Good grief, I checked all the boxes.

i got my finger caught in a rope that was attached to a dog going a million miles an hour. there is a bruise on the underside of the last joint (top joint?) and it's bumpy on the top side, and it's reasonably swollen. it's super sensitive and i can't really bend it bc it's super stiff and painful. this is just a tough-it-out situation, right? i need to use both hands for my job, and they take kind of a bashing day to day, so i'm kind of nervous how much pain this is gonna cause me.

Go see a doctor, you need X-rays. Might be an extensor tendon avulsion and/or fracture of the distal phalanx:

if it's a lot better today, is probably ok? i can move it pretty fine, very little remaining stiffness, although the bruising worsened yesterday and it's still quite sensitive (caught it a door this morning, that fucking hurt). it's also less lumpy-looking.

get an x-ray

Ok I wasn't going to bc I dread Dr visits, and my finger feels way better, but it's a weird colour and I figure 2 doctors saying the same thing might just be on to something.

wrist pain
knee pain
ankle pain
fatigue

i guess i'm old?

- uncanny fanny

ken you should get checked for auto-immune disorders!!!

Ate a bagel last week and within 3-4 hours I had a headache, felt tired and unable to focus mentally, like when I'm coming down with a flu, went home and went to bed and woke up sweaty, feverish. I'm used to bloating and stomach pain if I over-do wheat but I'm not used to that massive...auto-immune response? Running a temp like 16 hours later seems extreme. Ugh.

I should get insurance eventually.

I keep meaning to do some kind of trial exclusion/auto-immune diet but when it comes down to it I'm just not sure if I can change my lifestyle that much for 30 days or more :\

(symptoms: weird skin problems, mainly, but also tired and hard to focus, being fat, and having digestive issues I don't think the internet needs to know about)

Any recommendations for good approaches?

I'm just not sure if I can change my lifestyle that much for 30 days or more :\

Tbh there's no way around it--if you get a positive result for any of your dietary testing, you're going to be changing your lifestyle for more than 30 days!! Also ime my reactions to the offending food items are getting worse, ie the damage to the stomach lining (if I understand that correctly) is cumulative, so while I can get away with a few pita chips or a croissant here or there, I have to make those rarities and can't let sandwiches, for inst, creep into my regular diet.

do the reactions get worse because you avoid it on the reg?

No exactly the opposite, I think? They get worse when I have too much wheat in a row, whereas if I've stayed off it for a while, I can cheat here and there. (I hate using the word "cheat" there but wth I can't be bothered to make up new nomenclature right now.)

The damage I did to my ankles 10-15 years ago during a bout of hypomania-induced compulsive running is acting up, so I'm in a bit of pain right now.

it turns out i might have a small fracture, so good thing i listened to ilx's two doctors and got it checked out.

yikes! hopefully small enough that they can get it fixed up quickly.

my stomach feels regretful and my ankle feels conflicted

bilateral joint pain in hips
" in ankles
" in shoulders
tingling scalp
sensitivity to sun
fatigue

Achey breaky heart and violent diarrhea

i have a really large bruise type of thing on my lower inner thigh - it's about 5 x 3", but doesn't hurt and it looks deep, it's not near the top of the skin like a normal bruise. i had this once before, about 10 years ago but it was on my outer thigh. back then, the dr just checked my platelets i think, and everything was normal so that was that.
