#surgery side effects

[closerundone]

I'm having a not-so-fun side effect from my last endometriosis surgery. At least once a week, I wake up with a "pain corset" - I have an intense feeling of being pushed from my ribs to my hips. Heat packs and focused yoga workouts help to relieve the sensation a bit, but it usually stays for most of the day. I'm going to investigate physiotherapy options in the new year, but any suggestions are welcome!

i blacked out again today

lemme explain why

about 2 1/2 years ago, I had surgery to correct my scoliosis by placing two titanium rods on either side of my spine, with screws keeping them in place (it's the reason i call myself a cyborg)

being so close to my central nervous system, there were risks and life-long side effects that could happen

the immediate side effects were numbness, pain, heat, itchiness or oversensitive nerves (read: extreme ticklishness) along my spine, sides and right hip

the life-long side effects that I got were the above, as well as being unable to bend my spine (to be expected) and...

periodic blackouts

these are literally the most terrifying things that have ever happened to me

basically what happens is my muscles in my arms, back and legs stop responding, as well as my vision tunnels quickly into darkness. i'm also unable to speak when this happens, so anyone with me has no idea what's going on until i regain control

they don't last long, these blackouts, just a few minutes

the first time this happened, i was at a walmart less than a month after my surgery. it was my first outing. I had to be carried out of the store

these blackouts then happened every 2-3 months for about a year, before only popping up once january of last year

they are not as frequent, but they are still terrifyng

to lose control over your own body is one of the worst things a person can go though, i think

i can only be glad that it happened in the relative safety of my room, and i was able to land on my bed

one of the times this happened, i was near my grandparents' pool table and i hit my head as i fell. 

my muscles are still quivering, and god, i'm still scared

i know that it won't happen again today, tomorrow, or probably not even in the next year

but i thought that maybe.... they had gone away

i've asked my brother what it looks like when this is about to happen, so if you guys ever are with me and you see my face suddenly go blank, or i start stumbling extremely hard, grab me. i won't respond to you for a few minutes, but you'll at least be able to prevent me from hurting myself.

What are the symptoms of lymphedema?

Answer by Gregg Orloff, PHD from CancerQuest and Emory University

What are the symptoms of lymphedema?

The symptoms of lymphedema are grouped by stages. Stage 0: lymphedema may be present but the patient does not notice any changes. Lymphatic function is reduced in this stage but not to point that causes symptoms.. Stage 1: Swelling is visible and may go away if the affected limb is elevated. There may be some pitting of the skin. Stage 2: Changes occur to the tissue and elevating the affected limb will not usually reduce the swelling. Stage 3: The swelling is more severe and changes are often seen in the skin. The skin changes include pitting, thickening, and warty growths. The stages of lymphedema do not ALL have to occur in any given patient. The swelling can make it difficult or impossible to perform normal functions with the affected limb. Severe lymphedema can result in joints that are 'frozen' (hard to move) and painful. In breast cancer patients, the shoulder is the joint most likely to be affected by this outcome.
