When I got my wisdom teeth taken out, I had an allergic reaction to the anesthesia and I had several seizures over the course of two hours after the procedure was done.
I'm currently going through this right now: Anytime I stand or walk around for too long, I get dizzy and then faint. It even happens if I am just sitting down. I have to be home schooled because of it.
No they don't. I was once diagnosed for POTS but then they dismissed it saying that it isn't POTS. They just realized I have chronic low blood pressure even though I am eating twice the salt of an average person each day and my heartrate tends to be high. My blood pressure also gets low if I go from lying down to sitting to standing up. They are now running some tests to see what is causing it. I am currently on a heart monitor.
Thank you and yes it is hard for me and for my family as well but I am trying to remain positive every single day and not making this bring my day down. All I know is that it could have been worse.
Had a sebaceous cyst on my dick that had to get surgically removed. I wasn't knocked out for the surgery; they did a local anesthetic and numbed the area, so I was fully awake the whole time.
The worse illness I've had was Sepsis from an botched root canal. Since I got that I also had staph and a continuous skin ailments ;(. Sepsis is pure hell
Last Monday i awake with blurry vision on left eye , after met doctor he told me that i have cataract. i plan to have eye surgery on next August,, i also used to have hemorrhoids 10 years ago , but i think cataract is worse
I had a virus when I was a kid and almost died. Was give drugs I was allergic to last year and was home alone and almost died cause I couldn't breathe. Torn mcl of the knee that sucked
broke my arm clean at the elbow when i was 8, had surgery and was put on morphine which made me vomit and feel really sick. i couldn't go to school for 5 weeks :(
I was run down by a car & was in a coma for a month. Had numerous broken bones both legs, hip, shoulder, arm, fractured scull & a quite a few internal injuries.
I did eat and so I had to go to the hospital for several weeks and they almost put a feeding tube but my mom wouldn't allow it so my brother had to force feed me
Me, my brother, and a friend were climbing from one tree to another tree over a stream because our old log bridge had been removed. Someone apparently got water on their shoes and was in front of me and I slipped on the wet branch and fell to the forest floor on the other side of the stream...
Eh it wasn't a big deal. I would of been fine if it weren't for the root. It was just a quick sharp pain "Ahhh!" and then it got all swollen. I broke it about 10:30 11 AM and it took them until about 12:30 in the middle of the night to fix it. I sat in the hospital forever... I had previously broen 2 fingers on separate occasions, got stitches in my right leg from a rusty metal slide, flipped over my handle bars on my bike and got road rash, etc. You know, everything a growing boy needs... :D Later I got stitches in my lip just being a boy.
Yeah you know facing down black bears in tropical storms, running head first at a Florida panther, walking on logs past an angry alligator, running around in the middle of a hurricane for run, jumping off a 50 foot bridge... I don't want to get hurt ya know...
Yeah, that sort of stuff was normal before everyone grew up on the internet and their cell phone... We went outside and did tough things like boys do...

Wow. That's super scary. All is cleared up now?
Yeah, but I have to carry around a card in my wallet so if I have to have emergency surgery, they know they can only use a certain type of anesthesia
Of course. Can't have that happen again.
I'm currently going through this right now:
Anytime I stand or walk around for too long, I get dizzy and then faint. It even happens if I am just sitting down. I have to be home schooled because of it.
Do they know what is causing this?
No they don't. I was once diagnosed for POTS but then they dismissed it saying that it isn't POTS. They just realized I have chronic low blood pressure even though I am eating twice the salt of an average person each day and my heartrate tends to be high. My blood pressure also gets low if I go from lying down to sitting to standing up. They are now running some tests to see what is causing it. I am currently on a heart monitor.
I wish you the best of luck! I know how hard it is to not know what causing you to feel so terrible.
Thank you and yes it is hard for me and for my family as well but I am trying to remain positive every single day and not making this bring my day down. All I know is that it could have been worse.
No problem. Yeah, just know that you have a circle of family and friends there for you in the meantime while things get sorted out.
Yeah they have been very supportive.
I guess my "mental issues", specially bpd because it's literally my personality and it ruins everything lmao
Yeah, I do know how rough things can be dealing with those mental disorders. I hope you're doing relatively well with it.
Thanks
The worst: I broke my hip
I broke it because I had recently had my 4th surgery on my hips because I got too tall too quick and the bone came out of the growth plate
Oh, my goodness. That's crazy.
Endometriosis. I live with it daily, and I cannot afford the surgery. Thankfully, I found a way to help it.
Agh, nooo! I had a co-worker with that. Definitely know how hard it was for her. I'm glad you have found ways to help you feel better, though.
Did she get the surgery?
I don't think she did.
Tell her to try this... www.amazon.com/.../B0001S5QPU
I'll let her know.
Lol my immune system is good when it wants to be but fucks me up when I'm looking forward to a particular day -___- always happens right.. Grr! 😠
Go figure.

Do you get the reference now? Haha.

Mission accomplished, haha. Sorry, I didn't know you didn't understand it.
I have RA. That's fun to deal with. I also get migraines, horrible period pain, and I once burned my leg so bad that my skin was black and bubbled up.
And yet you still manage to smile at the end of the day and be a beautiful inspiration.
As do you my love, as do you.
❤ I'm glad.
Upper respiratory infection when I was 16. Was hallucinating and felt like I was on the verge of death.
You must've let it go a while. 😕
Yeah, we had no idea what was wrong with me. Was sick and throwing up for about 2 or 3 days before I went to the hospital.
Glad you finally went.
I had a virus when I was a kid and almost died. Was give drugs I was allergic to last year and was home alone and almost died cause I couldn't breathe. Torn mcl of the knee that sucked
Hope you're feeling better now.
broke my arm clean at the elbow when i was 8, had surgery and was put on morphine which made me vomit and feel really sick. i couldn't go to school for 5 weeks :(
Whoa, what happened?
i feel at an awkward angle off a table and my arm snapped
*fell
I was run down by a car & was in a coma for a month. Had numerous broken bones both legs, hip, shoulder, arm, fractured scull & a quite a few internal injuries.
Please tell me they figured out and arrested whoever hit you.
No I was charged fail to yield the right away. I was on my motorcycle pulled out & was broadsided by a car traveling at highway speed.
Reallyyyy? :(
Yea I should have been dead.
😨Strep throat and twisting my ankle after running after midnight and falling on a toy story trex😒
Ouch, no fuuuuuun.
lmao damn that toy story t rex, why were u running after midnight tho?
Hand foot and mouth... look it up if you don't know what it is... I had it really bad it was all over my tongue and throat was covered
Yes, I heard of it. Doesn't sound fun at all.
I did eat and so I had to go to the hospital for several weeks and they almost put a feeding tube but my mom wouldn't allow it so my brother had to force feed me
I've also almost died many times from allergic reaction its great having your throat swell shut and you not being able to breath
I hope you have an Epi-Pen or something now.
I have allergy pills always on me... because I can't even be kiss by someone who has eaten tree nuts or not cooked eggs
I'm sorry to hear that, but I'm glad you have things in place just in case.
Its cool I'm used to it
Probably when I broke my left arm/wrist after falling about 30 or 40 feet out of ficus tree and and my arm landing on a giant root.
Just randomly climbing the tree?
Me, my brother, and a friend were climbing from one tree to another tree over a stream because our old log bridge had been removed. Someone apparently got water on their shoes and was in front of me and I slipped on the wet branch and fell to the forest floor on the other side of the stream...
Damn, that sucks.
Eh it wasn't a big deal. I would of been fine if it weren't for the root. It was just a quick sharp pain "Ahhh!" and then it got all swollen. I broke it about 10:30 11 AM and it took them until about 12:30 in the middle of the night to fix it. I sat in the hospital forever...

Gee, you definitely take the safe road, I see.
Yeah you know facing down black bears in tropical storms, running head first at a Florida panther, walking on logs past an angry alligator, running around in the middle of a hurricane for run, jumping off a 50 foot bridge... I don't want to get hurt ya know...
Totally normal.
Yeah, that sort of stuff was normal before everyone grew up on the internet and their cell phone... We went outside and did tough things like boys do...
That damn technology.
When I was six I slipped and split my lip in half on a door frame
Ouch!
Still have a slight scar from that one lol
I was going to ask about that, hah.
Tore my rotator cuff (top part of shoulder) in HS football. Felt like forever for it to heal.
Woahhh heather you never make questions lol
Lol I thought the same thing
Now long did it really take to heal?
Hah, call it inspiration from my daily life.
