Okay. Joey vet update. It’s long so I’ll put it under a cut.

They agree that the lump appears to be a lipoma (benign fatty tumor). And they agree that removing it would be best to keep it from getting any bigger. They’ll send it out for pathology to make sure it’s nothing to worry about.

They also mentioned that he seems to have fat deposits on the cheeks. Meanwhile his body has little to no body fat at all. They suspect his pectoral muscles are atrophied, leading to his fat depositing in weird places like his face. So all these years I thought Joey was a skinny boy he may have not been as skinny as I thought.

He just had bloodwork done and it looked good so they’re not worried about that. They did want to do some presurgical radiographs though. Those all looked pretty good, except they noticed what they believe to be aspergillosis. Aspergillosis is a respiratory disease caused by fungal spores. It is very possible he has had this for many years. He has never shown any symptoms and it might be many more years before he becomes symptomatic. But obviously it’s best to take care of it now.

He’s going to get some meds for the next few weeks and then have recheck radiographs on October 1st. If those look improved we’ll go ahead and schedule his surgery

i'm back from the vet, the good news is the vet thinks boomer's tummy bump is just a benign lipoma. buuuuuut she's worried about where it's located, and how fast it's growing. since it's right above his peanus, if it gets any bigger it could impact how he pees and cause problems :/ she's also worried about that cluster of bumps on his hip, where that big floof patch is. she wants to remove it and send to be tested for cancer cells. they already tested it at the vet clinic and said it seemed like just fat cells (like a lipoma), but she's still concerned about it. she said i can wait and monitor both spots for growth, but that i should probably consider getting them removed soon :s

Over on a german language leftist subreddit I just had some guy tell me that fat people whose thighs are touching to the point where it causes health problems are so super rare that we shouldn't consider them in our politics, specifically with regard to cis-hetero society's insistence on pants.

They of course also said that it's not hard to loose enough weight to where your thighs aren't touching anymore and completely disregarded my argument that it's still oppressive to want fat people to conform to their standards, just because they think it's easy to be thin.

As if lipomas on the inner thighs aren't such a widespread thing that we literally have a word for it: Reiterhosen.

Anyway, I'm tired.

fun medical times general don't look warning if such things gross you out/you get angry about misdiagnosis etc

when I was a kid I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. Great, fine, explained why my knees (and hips though that wasn't picked up for another couple years) didn't bend past right angles and were approximately the shape of a pufferfish. With a bit of treatment I got most of the range of motion back and the puffiness reduced a bit.

there were a few things that never quite gelled like how my blood tests never showed inflammation, x-rays showed no damage in the joints, and anti rheumatic drugs were markedly less useful than simple pain medication and anti inflammatories. But those my GP could manage so the rheumatologists shuffled me off their books.

last year my GP said, well, it's been a decade since you saw a specialist and your pain seems to be getting worse but I don't want you on some of these pain meds forever so let's get someone to look at you. public system said no, there's no inflammation in the blood tests, she's not high priority. GP said, hm, still not happy, want to try private? Me with health insurance and in chronic pain etc said, sure, why not.

specialist says, well, I'm not sure there's much I can do, but let's get you an MRI of one of your knees so we can check what's going on in there.

ever had a medical appointment start with the words, 'your scan results were very interesting'?

turns out I do not have and have have had rheumatoid arthritis.

turns out I have something so rare that I couldn't find a single layperson language resource about it

he got a scan of the other knee and fished out one done of my hips age about fourteen and turns out not only do I have this extremely rare condition; where most people who get it only ever get it in one joint, I have it in four joints: both knees and both hips

this thing is called lipoma arborescens and it's basically just gunk. It limits range of motion and caused pain through purely mechanical obstruction. It can basically only be diagnosed through MRI imaging or cutting open the joint to look, and even MRI has become much better over time: looking at the fuzzy, low-res 15-year-old MRI of my hips, even through my thwarted fury about e misdiagnosis I can kind of see why they didn't catch it.

other key things about lipoma arborescens that distinguish it from rheumatoid arthritis: it doesn't damage bone; it doesn't cause inflammation; and it doesn't respond to anti rheumatic drugs.

recommended treatment is just to go into the joint and cut it out: 'early synovectomy'.

that caused me to choke on a laugh and tell the specialist, you're twenty years too late for early.

but it's one knee down now. Today a knee surgeon went in there and did his thing. In his exacting medical terminology he told me 'there was quite a bit of the stuff in there, but I got most of it out'.

So I'll have a bunch of physiotherapy to do and an exciting new scar across my knee cap. and if it helps, I guess we line up for rounds 2-4.

ya sleepy friendo here is having a lipoma removed wednesday because it turns out it's been causing a good chunk of my shoulder pain. here's to hoping it helps and I'll be able to do more projects now

Lipoma Causes, Symptoms, And Effective Prevention Methods

Lipoma is a common benign tumor that forms under the skin. It is composed of fat cells and can occur in any part of the body, but is most commonly found on the neck, shoulders, arms, and torso. Lipomas are non-cancerous and do not usually cause any harm, but they can be concerning due to their appearance and potential growth. There are different types of lipomas, such as superficial and deep-seated, which may vary in size and location. Lipomas are prevalent in the population, with about 1 in 100 people having them. Despite being harmless, addressing lipoma is important for overall health and wellness. In this article, we will provide a comprehensive understanding of lipoma, covering its causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, and effective prevention methods.

Symptoms of Lipoma

· Lipoma typically presents as a soft, painless lump under the skin.

· It is commonly found on the neck, shoulders, back, arms, and thighs.

· The size of lipoma can range from small pea-sized to large grapefruit-sized.

· In rare cases, lipoma may cause pressure or discomfort if it grows near nerves or organs.

· Some people may experience multiple lipomas on their body.

It is important to note that lipoma symptoms may vary depending on the location and size of the lump. For example, a lipoma on the neck may cause difficulty in swallowing or breathing, while a lipoma on the thigh may cause discomfort when walking or sitting for long periods.

I'm about to have to make one of the hardest decisions of my life and I don't know if I can do it.

I love my dog. She's the best dog in the world (as all dogs are). We just celebrated her 10th Gotcha Day and she was 2-3 years old when I got her. She's a Doberman, so she is well past her life expectancy.

She does have some quality of life. I think she's still happy. She still hops around like a puppy when we grab her leash to take her on a walk. But I know that quality of life is declining. She used to sleep in my bed almost every night. Now she can barely get up there, and she won't stay. She spends most of her day asleep. She's absolutely covered in lipomas, and more of them keep popping up. I can't even keep track anymore. She has some kind of hip issue that's causing nerve problems. She opened up a massive lick granuloma on her leg because of the nerve sensation, and it's been continually open for years. We can't get her to stop, even with medication, spinal manipulation, and laser therapy. She's having a harder time walking. The back yard is down a high set of stairs and she slips on them almost every day.

She was just diagnosed with laryngeal paralysis and she's not a good candidate for tie-back surgery.

As much as I wish it weren't a factor, the cost of her vet bills has gotten out of hand. We've already spent about $4,000 (USD) on her medical treatments this year. It'll be over $5,000 by the end of the year. We can't afford that. We absolutely can't afford it.

I know I'm going to have to euthanize her. I don't know if I'm keeping her alive when I should have already let her go because I can't bear it. I don't know if I'm trying to euthanize her prematurely. She has good days and bad days. If it were me (and I have a severe degenerative disability, so one day it will be) I would want to pass peacefully while the good days still outnumbered the bad.

I don't know what to do and there isn't a single choice I can make that I won't hate myself for later.

[dissociacrip]

I know you probably were thinking of people who have POTS and orthostatic hypotension when you said compression stockings aren't a mobility aid but on rare occasions it can be, because there are people with lymphedema and lipedema bad enough that they can't walk well unless they're wearing compression stockings (I would know, I have lymphedema though mine isn't severe enough to count as a visible disability). It's not in like. A mad way but I'm just sad everyone in the disability community forgets lymphedema or lipedema exist and just assume it's a fat person disease (which is part of the often fatphobic stigma caused by the only representation the disorders get being my 600 pound life lmao). Tbh I wish people remembered fat storage diseases (not sure what to call them but like. Diseases that cause your body to deposit abnormal amounts of fat in certain places) are visible disabilities (like lipomas, lipedema, adiposis dolorosum, epidural lipomatosis, and I'm sure there's plenty more because I'm 99 percent sure I have the "apple shaped" equivalent of lipedema with a huge painful fat deposit on my neck that burns when you touch it, as well as a huge fat deposit inside my spine that I've probably had since my teens. Yeah fat disorders are not fun) existed like I try to search lymphedema and epidural lipomatosis on Tumblr and it's like nobody has it but me and people who have since deactivated

i know what you're talking about because i'm pretty sure my ex's father had lymphedema in both of his legs which severely limited his mobility, although he used crutches to get around and not compression wear.

the thing is, i wasn't saying that compression stockings don't help people get around. they do even in the case of people who have POTS or orthostatic hypotension (or autonomic failure.) bug mobility aids are designed with the purpose of assisting in movement. it's not contextual usage. canes (including white canes and not including decorative ones for casual use, which aren't supposed to support weight anyways), crutches, various types of scooters, wheelchairs, rollators, walkers, leg prosthetics, and guide dogs are all examples of things designed for the purpose of assisting in movement. some mobility aids that have both "mobile" and not mobile forms are standing aids and transfer aids (such as sling lifts and lift chairs.) technically stair lifts, ramps, and bars to help you stand up in handicap stalls are also mobility aids, although the way most people use the term probably doesn't suggest that. what unites all of the above is that they're intentionally and explicitly designed for mobility assistance. certain types of orthoses/braces are arguably mobility aids, but not all of them.

basically, all mobility aids help people move around, but not everything that can help someone move around is considered a mobility aid. i think this is an important distinction to make because mobility aid usage comes with a certain stigma all on their own, including mobility aids that you don't carry around with you (although the stigma when it comes to things like stair lifts or hand bars or ramps usually present as exclusion of access when it's needed, or those things not even being present.) mobility aids aren't exclusively designed or used by physically disabled people because we all know able-bodied people with temporary injuries use them, but the stigma around their usage, of course, stems from physical disability.

something like compression wear isn't inherently subject to the same stigma, although it definitely could be stigmatized in relation to certain body types and forms of disability, as you mentioned here. pain medications that contextually help people physically get around are certainly stigmatized and that stigma may overlap in some superficial ways to, say, getting around with a cane or chair or whatever, but overall it's a different type of stigma. you can personally consider something in your disability situation as a mobility aid, but that doesn't mean it is socially or medically recognized as such, which makes general claims like "compression stockings are a mobility aid" untrue, while "compression stockings help me walk" certainly can be true if that's the case. it's the difference between something explicitly meant to assist mobility vs. something that sometimes can.

generally, certain things can be thought of as a "mobility aid" in certain circumstances if you use the term very literally, but in a broader sense of the term, they aren't. it's more a matter of the stigma around mobility aid usage than semantics though. i hope all of that makes sense. no one has to agree with me, but that's the logic behind my thoughts.

also, this makes me wish i mentioned lymphedema and similar conditions in my post about people who "move wrong" due to their disabilities 'cause i tried to go out of my way to include conditions that are seldom talked about. i'm sorry that you don't have anyone to share your experiences with on tumblr. it must be painfully isolating and no one deserves that.

[greenokapi]

When it’s almost 9am and you haven’t slept cause you couldn’t stop watching pimple popping and lipoma removal videos while eating laufabrauð and now you have a headache and are probably gonna have weird fuckin dreams…

[verbalmoonwalking]

Just saw an ad here on Tumblr for a weight loss thing that it's first example is as a treatment for lipoma and I'm gonna go feral that's literally a tumor (albeit a very benign and common one) just cause it's made of fat cells doesn't mean you can fucking melt it off with radio waves or whatever the fuck they're trying to do that wouldn't work on normal fat to begin with

[the-firebird69]

He was about 5% out of the outer layer. after his 53 years of life and at that time he started to grow more than he did before. And after loading up on the medicine but he had a gross burt prior to starting up his inhaler. No, it was in 1990 3 1993. He was not on allergy medicine. He's trying to kick to have it. And he was taking only mild repressors and not much of it. And he was doing that for about four years. and his own algae medicine for a long time. He couldn't take it. It was causing heart problems out. allergy medicine and that wears off in only a few years and he didn't have preservatives. So he started to grow again. in 1992 and he gained a lot of weight from 100 it it was from 91 now he said it was from like 1987 to 1993 and he gained a few pounds every once in awhile and get up there to 185 and he was at for a long time and he felt better and he was bigger and he was a little chubby and he then did this hospital cycle because of Mac proper and Trump and a few others who are idiots and that threatening him with it to melt the lipoma things like that and it's taken seriously whether you do or not if you threaten it we do it to you. we become dumber than you are and you're pretty damn dumb.. We like it. It works. But at 85% of the outer layer stuff. which includes soft tissue and he will be a little bit bigger probably a couple pounds that he lost and he's gonna start filling out a little using he has a month delay and it's only been you know it hasn't really been a month at all and it will start then. beginning of October to the middle is what we said and The individual fill out a little more. And he's 253. She's laughing again and stuff. I don't know why. it's he's stupid and no, he's telling other people So you gonna make yourself sick? She's laughing and knows that he's big He keeps growing and people can't see it. And his dad was pretty big Her dad and his son never saw his dad big. He saw his arms are pretty good sized. No, I'm actually laughing. I feel a better she does too. That's hero. But yeah, Freya is laughing and we did. say hero. Hera is laughing. And she is. And she's mad at this idiot next door. She should be. But we'll send in troops for that. But our son and daughter are saying O. K. You're 2FIFTY-THREE and she's laughing again. and it's code or something. And he says, what are you talking about? So he's trying to get her back. He says and says, OK, Ken and I are Batman and Robin and it's kind of weird. And then he goes, I'm Batman. because Ken is always running around and getting in the Pat Mobile. and our son is driving. So people want to see that Comic Con and her son is laughing and daughter and they're saying no, they don't They don't at all.. It could make it into scary monster movie and he's gonna make some movies. He needs other actors. He can't do it. But you think you can pretend you're him and it'll be funny because Ken does. Ken doesn't play Robin, but he can do that kind of stuff And he's this big fat guy that says I've. been retired. and I got older. We're from the O'Donnell clan. So it's kinda funny because he'd be this huge Robin Hahahaha. and we would have a good time and if our son did like a couple months he looked like Batman and Robin would look like a big fat guy. So he's gonna try and find it. I'm good. Good. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. Report not much. You're gonna do it this morning when the sun comes up.

two and a half weeks post knee surgery.

we did the one knee as a proof of concept with the potential to do the other knee and both hips if it helped. And even not yet fully healed and rehabbed I'm starting to think it has helped? I have more resting ache from my non operated knee and I don't think it's only because I'm having to compensate with that knee when I walk/sit/stand.

I had my follow up with the surgeon this week, gross medical stuff under the cut

the surgeon reckons that altogether he took around a cup by volume of lipoma out of my knee joint. He said, no wonder it was causing discomfort. It's always something, as someone with chronic pain, to have a medical professional validate that experience. And even more something, if it did help, to think it might be possible to one day not be in pain. I scarcely dare hope.

Anyways the lipoma tissue was sent off for tests and it was confirmed to be lipoma and nothing more concerning - which is a relief. The specialist did say non-cancerous when making the diagnosis but you never like to hear 'tumour' associated with your body.
