It's so great how people have more opportunity to identify themselves in ways meaningful to them.
Right? It makes me so happy to see it happening. Pink sparkly hearts to alla y'all figuring this stuff out

Yes indeed!
I was terrified of general anesthesia until I had it and now I LOVE it.
They gave me IV Benadryl after a procedure once and I still think about it wistfully.

Man, IV morphine was so fucking good.

I remember when I went to the ER with BAD abdominal pain (turned out to be appendicitis) and they gave me morphine. I felt it go through my veins and kind of went "ooooh" which had the nurse (or whoever) kind of grin at me.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Good to see you, tommyrot.

Our wings are not tired
IV Benadryl
I have, not a truly allergic, but rather atypical reaction to Benadryl. I got to discover for certain about this when they gave it to me in IV form to try to get me to sleep when I was hospitalized for pancreatitis. Amp up, bugs under my skin, heart racing. Really not a fun reaction to that stuff.

I’m sorry March was so awful, tommyrot, but it’s good to see your pixels nonetheless.
Hi, Gud!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
No fun, Drew. At least now you know and can warn people.
I don't know what they gave me for my last procedure, but it was, we're talking...and we're waking up. No side effects, no reaction other than, you know, unconciousness. I'd like that again if I ever have to be anesthetized, please.
Hi, Tommyrot. Good to see you! And congrats on figuring stuff out.
What I've learned about myself the past ten years, both about being neuroatypical, and being biromantic demi(in a single case)-ace, have resolved a lifetime's load of feeling broken and wrong. It's like...full breathing capacity, after years of being cramped and trying to mimic other people's behavior well enough to not get stoned out of the village.

That was what propofol was like for me.

What is even happening?
tommyrot, it's so good to see you here. I'm sorry to hear about your mom's passing, and your job.
ION, I have discovered a word for what I am: agender. I'm trying to figure out if I'm aromantic.
I'm glad you have been empowered by this. All the best on your journey.

My son fought getting propofol for his first colonoscopy, and made sure he could get it for the second one, dcp.

I've never had IV Benadryl, but regular Benadryl is both the best thing for my allergies, and completely unreliable when it comes to how it will affect me otherwise. Sometimes, it works like a charm. Other times, it triggers anxiety and makes my heart race. I only take it if I'm utterly suffering.
