what's happening to our borad TMI

apparently it's not uncommon to grow a single long hair out of the middle of your forehead

Tell me about it.

I've been noticing an increase in weird waxy white hairs on my scalp but I'm hopeful that's due to my very untreated hypothyroidism

please get your hypothyroidism treated ASAP!!

srsly

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

how about if pedro alvarez finishes below replacement level this year you get yr hypothyroidism checked

if the angels win the pennant we can be a family again and also i'll get that thyroid thing removed r whatever

Oh man, the worst symptom of hypothyroidism is not wanting to go to the damn doctor. Been down that road.

Oh, heh, weird that the last posts here are about hypothyroidism - I have it and it's made me have such heavy periods I've now also got anaemia... so I'm on iron tablets and my stomach is flipping out giving me jet black shits.

u goth shit

Also on the poo front, every time I drink alcohol I shit blood. I guess I shouldn't drink any more but... forever? Really?

if you're shitting blood at any time you should see a doctor

urgently

Yeah that - those are some tubes that are supposed to stay separate.

I have a number of times and had a colonoscopy last year. Nothing untoward up there apart from hemorrhoids. But only ever flare up with blood after drinking. It's literally a bummer.

time to switch to sniffing glue

bizarre, is yr new dn a TMI confession or just an amazing new dn

a little from column a, a little from column b

I poo blood all the time, it just means you're metal

it just means you're (having) metal (shards inside of your body that are cutting up your insides)

Thanks for that image. It really helps.

I shit probably 5 or 6 times a day average, have done my entire adult life ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

that shit ain't right

do you smoke, jim? nicotine sure moves those bowels

i go for years without smoking and when i take it up i only do it while drinking. it does exacerbate stuff for sure.

i also don't drink that much coffee - one cup a day, two max - for the same reason.

i'm with jim. something something metabolism i guess? If i go a day or even half a day without, i get to feeling very ill.

^don't drink coffee, don't drink, don't smoke (what do you do)

jim lay off the fibre

those turds gotta be a little denser and less frequent ocurring

i find not drinking coffee, not smoking, and not drinking certainly ameliorate the problem somewhat, but don't come close to getting rid of it.

ive also eaten a variety of diets, from super fast food and meat heavy, little to no fruit or veg on a daily basis, dirtbag 20 something bachelor style, to eating more or less paleo - sardines and sweet potato for dinner followed by a banana type of deal - to currently being a vegan with a pretty balanced diet with beans, grains, fruit and veg fairly prominent (lots of fibre obv). none have been noticeably beneficial, and the high fibre diet doesn't seem to have made it any worse.

different bodies react differently imo

maybe im intolerant to gluten lol

haha nah

when i was vegetarian i was digesting food a lot faster (fast metabolism)

ie i was taking more shits a day which was ... shitty

i do about one a day these days which is p good practise for me

I have apparently been dehydrated lately and my bowels have been angry about this

5 or 6 times a day sounds like... a real inconvenience!! do you get a lot of stomach pain?

No, no pain. Really nothing out of the ordinary apart from the frequency.

so you're half duck

whatevs

Jeez youd want three a day wouldnt you

Id not be easy without three i think

Six every day maybe a bit much but its nice "me time" too isnt it

As original post confirms i do enjoy a good shite tbf

wow

i have something hard stuck between my teeth

it is either
a) tooth fragment
b) plaque
c) piece of popcorn
d) piece of tortilla chip

My co-worker has an enormous inflamed whitehead at the very top of her back and is wearing her hair up and a shirt where you can see it at all times and it is absolutely KILLING me. POP THAT SHIT.

Oh goddddddd

I almost want to tell her. How can she not know? Something that big has got to hurt. I can't even look at it anymore. I'm afraid I might just reach over and take care of it for her.

Betting that E will have popped it herself in an hour

Xp

can you accidentally drop things on her

"aaahhhh I was just carrying this metal-loop whitehead remover tool and I TRIPPED!!! I JUST STUMBLED AND TRIPPED I'M SO SORRY IT WAS SUCH AN ACCIDENT"

It's the kind of thing I wish I got somewhere on my own person (tho preferably in a non-visible spot) because MY GOD would it be satisfying to attack.

maybe she just needs a little push

tickle it a little for her so she gains conscience of it

ewww

although tbh I'm a big rubbing alcohol/sharp object/neosporin+bandage professional at home

I should probably note that I was up at 2:00 last night watching dr. pimple popper videos because I couldn't sleep. That said, I don't think I could touch something like this on someone I don't know without gloves and all sorts of implements but when i saw it this morning it was like OMFG jackpot. Now it's just taunting me.

sharp object meaning tweezers?

tweezers, safety pin, safety razor blade
