dear miss candi bitch-

[rae121452]

i want you to get a second (and third) opinion on your health matters. if you had brain fluid leaking it seems that you would have headaches like all the devils of hell were surrounding you and beating on your skull with crowbars. tell your dr. you want a referral, and then another referral after that. do it, bitch, or i'll kick your ass.

People leak cerebral spinal fluid all the time and don't know it.

Sometimes it drips out their noses.

Wtf?

Wtf?

Yes. Sometimes a congenital defect. Sometimes a result of trauma.

Constant runny nose.

Wow! My daughter's friend was born with a condition like that. She gets really sick and every few years, she does have to get fluid drained.

I got an appointment to see a specialist but it's actually not that bad. Like it's rare but it's probably not gonna kill me. The doctor I was talking about seeing in the thread WAS a specialist, he was just unfamiliar with chiari malformations because not a lot of people have them.

I actually do get real bad headaches, and I have since I was like, a high school freshman.

I don't have brain fluid leaking, it's my actual brain. My actual brain is falling out my skull because my skull is too small. I might have explained that poorly. The actual danger is that my fluid might not be able to "leak", that is it might not be able to flow. So much of my brain might fall into my neck that it blocks the flow of spinal fluid. If it does, then the fluid can build up on my brain and I can die. It's supposed to flow out. It's not supposed to sit stagnant in your skull.

Actually I'll just put a link, I've been reading up on this a lot.

With a chiari malformation, your skull is too small to hold your entire brain, so if they have to do the surgery, what they do is they go in and basically expand it like letting out a pair of pants, put your brain back where it's supposed to be, close you up and you're good. The doctor said the whole thing takes like 2 hours. Like if you have to have brain surgery this is the kind you want to have because it's not even really your brain, it's just your skull.

Some people go their whole lives and never need the surgery. I'm not super worried about it, that's why I acted like I wasn't super worried about it. It's just some fucked-up bullshit that I didn't need. It also might be why I wear glasses, like it fucks a lot of shit up.

I've had those headaches my whole life. If they ever went away I wouldn't know how to live. But yeah, they'll knock you on your ass.

But like it is legitimately not a huge deal. It's just rare; it's not like a for sure deadly thing. But I have an appointment to go see the specialist and get it looked at and see how bad it is. I'm not gonna randomly have surgery if I don't need it.

Also, now they use fake bone plates in the surgery I might have to get, but when I looked it up I found out they used to have metal and I'm gonna tell them to go look in the back and see if they still have the metal plates, because like... I want a metal skull. If I have to have surgery I'm coming out of it Wolverine.

Honestly I should have known my head was fucked up because once I got to thinking about it I remembered my dentist telling me my skull was really small for a grown-ass adult and that's why my teeth were fucked up. But it's not like I'm a pinhead. Like you can't tell I'm malformed by looking at me. That specialist I went to told me that basically the only thing he knew about chiari malformations was that they were often not checked for because the people who had them tended to be physically attractive, like did not look deformed at all. He said they called shit like that "invisible" disabilities. Because even doctors don't think to look for them because this particular malformation actually makes you MORE attractive, not less, because having the smaller bones makes your face like... smaller? I don't know how to explain it. It's a huge thing in Japan. Google "Japanese Small Face". People over there are buying shit to look like they have this kind of malformation.

I was just bitching; I'm not gonna die. I mean I'm not gonna just let it go but it's not a big huge thing. If I disappear again, I just got bored, I'm not dead.

Very sorry that you have that. My friend's daughter has that. Most of the time, she functions very well. She was even a comp. dancer when she was younger. She goes get very bad headaches sometimes though.

Ewwww....

Keep your fluids to yourself!!!

I was also a competitive dancer when I was younger. That's weird.

Seriously, it's not a big deal. I'm not super worried about it.

You know, I posted I found out about this in the same post that I mentioned I fell off a cliff so this seems like a weird aspect of that post to focus on.

dear candi,

please stop falling off cliffs.

okthnx

dear candi,

Don't tell me how to live my life.

In my defense there was absolutely nothing I could do to prevent it. Somebody, probably smoking crack, hit us with their car and knocked us over. We need to invest in some guard rails in this bitch, but also when you break those they make you pay for them so I don't actually know where I stand on that.

 

[Ann_Tagonist]

Only thing he's leaking is bullshit.

 

[RobDownSouth]

I take a weekend off and Candi's brain starts leaking?

I know I'm late to this party but hope you feel better soon, CC.

 

[Aglaopheme]

Dear Candi,

It’s kind of a big deal.

oooooooooh, child! i don't want to scare you nor nothing but i saw this old movie on tv one night. a flying saucer lands on earth and at night these bat shaped kind of things come out and fly around and sneak up behind people, chomp them on the back of the neck and suck out their brains! there could be all kinds of flying saucers and shit back in those ky. hollers that no one knows anything about. maybe that's really why you fell off of a cliff, you had one of those brain suckers eating on your neck and it planted another idea in your mind! if i were you, i'd call the county coroner and ask if they've been finding dead folks with their brains sucked out.


which just reminded me of one of my favorite pickup lines from the 70's: "baby, i'll suck your dick so hard that the top of your head will cave in."
