My old man five years ago had a colonoscopy but the only time they could get him in was the same day we were going to fly down and see a Seahawks game and they said you can’t get any anesthetic and fly so he said gently caress it and just got it done with nothing then we flew to Seattle, so that’s why you can see im gay

Yknow when you're falling asleep, and your leg kicks, and you're like what gently caress was that about. That's a myoclonic. Except in my case if I get too stressed or not enough sleep or woke up too fast I get them. I just call them twitches because it's easier for people to understand. Sometimes they're funny, but mostly they're really annoying. I can go into detail about my specific issues if you're curious.

I was trying to iterate on the amusingly peculiar nonsensical assonance repetition in fremony at the library (which as I understand it was probably an etaoin shrdlu error) didn't mean to stress anybody out about actual brain problems! well, maybe a little idk how other people react when their brain gets momentarily confused because it's expecting structure but gets nonsense, but for me confusion and concern turn to amusement pretty quickly. when I lose my mind I will probably be one of the ones that's always laughing

You have to hit them square on the top of the skull with something that will produce a nice comedic THUNK like a flimsy old frying pan Anything else and you will kill someone don't ask me how I know

Unfinish3d posted:You have to hit them square on the top of the skull with something that will produce a nice comedic THUNK like a flimsy old frying pan Cast iron fry pan is always a better option unless you're frying eggs really. I've had a one or two concussions with puking hours after the fact. Last one was trying to snowboard and cracking my head backwards onto hard packed snow. Not a bad one and wearing a helmet but I remember tasting what purple tastes like, very vividly. Wierd unpleasant and somewhat metallic. I'm already more surly than I used to be but that might just be getting older. One or two more and I'm sure there'll be personality changes.

I got my first concussion at recess in 4th grade while playing kickball. This other kid and I both did a running jump trying to catch a killer cherry bomb and we collided pretty hard. This other kid was about twice my size. I bounced off him and my head bounced off the pavement. I remember showing up to the hospital covered in blood and vomit. It was pretty metal but I didn't appreciate it as such at the time Also when I was 4 I tripped and fell off of the top of a playground and bit my tongue half off. I nearly choked to death on my own blood, which is again pretty metal. I ate nothing but soup, pudding, and push-pops for at least a month after Revins fucked around with this message at 07:38 on Sep 21, 2019 |

You guys are forgetting the most important part. One blow to the head causes amnesia and a second blow later returns memory.

Usually those are in my face/head. It really sucks and has me worried about what’s gonna happen when I’m in my 50’s and older. Don’t box, kids!

I got a pretty bad concussion when I was a teenager and some dude hit me in the back/side head with a wooden baseball bat. I played it off like I was a hard rear end, but less than 5 minutes later I was crying and puking my guts out, and for the rest of the afternoon I had trouble with everything. I slept it off pretty hard (I know the doctors say don't sleep, whatever).

deadeyez posted:That electric shock thing coupled with a twitch sounds exactly like a myoclonic seizure. You're probably dying. You should mention it to your doctor. Yeah, they know and they’re keeping an eye out for me developing MS, which runs in my family. Nothing funky on my last CT but I’m due for another one soon. You could try Ask/Tell, I think that’s still reasonably active.

Mooey Cow posted:That's a myth. Unless you're showing signs of brain hemorrhage, sleeping is a good way to treat concussions. There’s a caveat to that, though, where in the period after the concussion you should wake someone up periodically to make sure there’s no changes to mentation. The real hazard of sleeping after a head injury is no one being able to notice that you’ve gone loopy or lost your coordination.

Hey OP I like bludgeons too and it's interesting to look up the history of how humans use them. A club to the head was pretty common throughout history as a way of knocking someone out, but we've always had problems with people just sometimes not ever waking up and/or dying. That's why they teach cops to not hit your head with the clubs anymore. For most of recorded history a blunt object to the head was considered an adequate way of rendering someone incapacitated though. Maybe like a 10% chance you kill the person? It can't be super high otherwise I doubt they would have used clubs to knock people out for as long as they did. On the other hand it can't be super low otherwise we'd still be hitting people in the head with clubs to knock them out. Seems like finding statistics for this kind of thing could be hard but who knows maybe they are out there
