Fight for OP, little cells!

budum tssss

Looks bionic.

🧡

Hope it goes well

It’s lovely ❤️

It amazes me that we can do these procedures...like look how far we've advanced.

OP's last post/comment on Reddit was 3 years ago. OP said they were diagnosed with Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumor, which has a 15% 5-year survival rate. I wish I knew that they were okay and that they made it. Maybe they just changed their username :(

So colourful! But also ouch.

I have a cousin who has dealt with psoriasis for a number of years. Changing her diet helped, but it went away completely when she was diagnosed with cancer and started chemo.

No skin oil to attract dirt.

Did they kneel on you to get extra leverage?

I wish I never saw this..

Ew.

Hope OP is well.

Explanation from OP:I have a connective tissue disorder (Ehlers Danlos Syndrome), which causes basically everything throughout my body to be weaker than it should be, including blood vessels. This was the result of having an arterial line inserted so they could monitor my blood pressure during surgery.

It has been maybe two months ago but I looked up how many people get stung by jellyfish. I don't recall the approximately number of people, but it is in the millions each year. I am to lazy to look it up again.

Would be a great base for a birch tree tattoo

So so very lucky that it didn't tighten or it would have cut off the child's oxygen during birth

😱😱😱😱😱

Well upside I guess you could make lots of ‘Marty’s fun private time’ jokes. As a burn survivor myself, this kind of skin graft must be a pain in the bum to manage

You have some time left before needing to recharge.

Snap! I also have a cervical fusion scar on my neck. Hope all went well with your op.

My grey hair is hereditary, I got it from my children

The modern belief that blood is blue before it comes in contact with o2 comes from how medical texts diagram the circulatory system, the effluent blood that goes to the cells for oxygen are transported by veins they are diagramed as red, the influent blood that has offloaded its o2 is taken back to the lungs in arteries they are diagramed as blue. So people have seen that for decades and it just kinda became "common knowledge"

From OP on Reddit: "So a quick overview is that I was hit in the eye with a tree branch and have had 6 surgeries on it so far. My pupil does not adjust anymore so it always looks like it’s extremely dilated and my iris peeled up and is no longer brown but is showing the blue underneath. Also, I no longer have a lens in that eye!" When asked if OP can see out of that eye: "Without a contact, nope nothing, with a contact at power 15 I can see blurred images... like the outline of my hand if it’s close to my face." When asked about their depth perception: "At first it was pretty difficult but I can still take in sunlight and my brain adjusted quite well. I honestly can’t even tell a difference anymore after so many years, unless I close my left eye."

Because I needed to know, even though the image made my spine quiver - from OP on Reddit: "Broken glass at work sliced and separated the front of my thumb from my thumbnail (I'm a bartender) And the Doc decided the best way to fix it would be to sow my thumb right back onto my nail lol. Didn't even know that was a possibility (expected it to be glued) or I probably would've forgone the hospital all together."

My brother's foot looked like this after he caught his shin in the spokes of my dad's bike. When it first happened it was all bloody and pus filled. Watching my mum treat the wound was probably when I first got interested in medical procedures.

Wow! Modern medicine is amazing.

A friend of mine had kidney cancer, after it was removed she told me that she had weird ridges on her fingernails for quite a long time. After the cancer was gone those ridges disappeared. Some years later I developed a huge ridge on a toenail. It was like the whole nail was wavy. I remember showing it to her in the swimming pool. Turns out I had uterine cancer, but very early stage. After the surgery my nails are normal again. Maybe it was a weird coincidence, but if you develop strange ridges across your nails, maybe go to the doctor.

Who's gonna say "love bite" first? :)

I had this with a little patch on the top of my head!

I'm equally horrified and fascinated 😮😍🤣🤣

Colostrum!

Fascinating!

That eyelash is driving me crazy. Get the tweezers!

I always used the sides of my fingers so I can use my fingers with less pain.

AHH MAN NO

If reveal and revile had a baby.

Be carefull. The other arm will also be soner or later. Drop the watch. Been there, done that. My allergy just spred from there. It's nickel!

I have SO MUCH of half white hairs.

You should get that checked out, it isn't normal.

Did this experiment once in a bio class. They gave us little capsules on necklaces for our spit DNA.

Moisturize me

So cute.

David Bowie had this eye effect

Just…. Don’t touch anything. Or go anywhere. Like at all.

My daughter broke her radius and ulna she needed plates and screws in her arm and wore a cast. That was 18 years ago . That arm still grows dark long hair the other arm is short light hair. It has nothing to do with it being rubbed off
