I've been cleared on the 4th to be able to swim again, so how long did some of y'all wait till you actually went in the water? Cause I'm going in today but I brought OR soap (thanks to my other obgyn she gave it to me pre-op to wash with) to wash up a little after the pool to stay safe.

I had to have a d&c done because I wasn't having a period, then pathology found PREcancerous cells and best treatment option was a hysterectomy, I didn't hesitate (I've wanted a hysto since I was like 18 anyways). I was ordered to have a CT scan prior to surgery to check on an ovarian cyst and check the status of my left ovary. No cancer was seen, at least I don't think they saw it. I had the hysterectomy and was recovering well until I got a call from my doctor telling me pathology found 1cm of grade 1A1 type cancer. Cue my mental health hitting a wall at high speed. He says everything else removed was clean, my cervix was good, my tube was good (surprise I only had one ovary and tube) but it did also have a cyst, and most importantly the 4 lymph nodes they removed were clean. I'm already worried about it possibly coming back in the future but even more so, I'm having a hard time accepting the fact that I had cancer. It just feels wrong for me to call myself a cancer survivor when I didn't even know it was there and it was so small. I feel wrong saying I had cancer.

One of my favorite ways to give offering, aside from sharing my drink with Dionysus, is to light scented candles to honor Dionysus as I live with people who do not accept other religions. What scented candles can I light in honor of Dionysus?

I'm not really allowed to drink alcohol due to my medications and living with someone who is vehemently against me drinking despite being 26. I want to share a drink with Dionysus but all I have is flavored drink mix, so is that acceptable to share with him? And if so how can I share with him?

For context, I used to worship Dionysus but about 3 years ago, my mental health was in a horrible spot, I had a breakdown and had to put religion as a whole on the back burner. I left my path to focus on not exiting this mortal realm and to get better. Well a few days ago I felt the urge to get back into what I used to do but at first it was just going to be green witchcraft with no deities, but today I just felt called back to Dionysus. I thought about him and then as I was scrolling Instagram I came across a video of a guy who has made flower crowns and he described one of the ones he made as Dionysian, that's when I really began to wonder if I should come back. But at the same time, I'm worried. I fear I may not be wanted back after turning away because of my mental health. I guess I'm looking for a sign that I'd be welcome to come back, but I'm not great at noticing signs. I either miss them entirely, or overthink little things to a terrifying degree (thanks to the religious trauma from what I was forced to grow up in). I don't know what I should do.

I had my hysterectomy 9 days ago because a d&c showed precancerous cells in the endometrial lining. Well pathology found 1cm of grade 1A1 cancer on the surface of my uterus. They also took my only fallopian tube, cervix, and 4 lymph nodes which were all clean and had no abnormalities. I'm glad it's out and he reassured me that for the most part I should be fine, I'll just need to see him for the next 5 years to make sure it doesn't somehow come back. I am honestly in a whirlwind of feelings. I'm glad it's gone, but at the same time OH MY GOD WTF DO YOU MEAN I DID HAVE CANCER!?!?!?!

So yesterday I undocked my switch after about a week of being docked, I intended to play but ended up going out and when I came back I forgot it was undocked and I was to tired to get it. Well I picked it up today to play and it was completely dead. Like I expected some battery drain but not that. Is my switch cooked?

I'm embarrassed to say this but twice now after surgery when I wake up in the morning to go to the bathroom I've noticed my underwear was wet. The bed is dry but my underwear is ruined and I need to change, is this normal? If it matters I'm 6 days post-op.

I knew to expect it but I'm having problems releasing the gas just yet. It hurts in my lower back and wraps around to the front a little. I've been drinking Gatorade to try and help and at this point have had a heating pad on me 24/7 since surgery. I was given meds to help but it hasn't really done much of anything. I'm 2 days post op so idk if I'm just impatient or should just go ahead and get laxatives. I'm very sensitive to pain and have a lower pain tolerance threshold so I could be just wimping out too. Idk I'd just like some advice on what else to do.

I have been in love with the franchise for a long time, I already have both Mk11 and Mk1 for the Nintendo switch, but I want to play some of the other games. I could buy Legacy collection: that has multiple arcade titles and is already on a console I own.... Or I could buy MkXl: the very first game that introduced me to the franchise and my all time favorite game. Only downside is I don't have any other console aside from my Nintendo switch, so to get this game I would have to go out of my way and buy a ps4, ps4 controller, and a controller charger alongside the game itself.

​

So which is more worth it? The Legacy Collection that has multiple arcade titles and is on a console I already own or Xl which I would have to go way out of my way to get but would probably enjoy the most.

Either way the plan is for whichever I choose to be a treat for my birthday which isn't until October which is why I'm asking now so I can figure out how much I might need to save up.
