LOL same! I am obsessed with anything related to organization. I'm guessing it's my mild OCD, but it's still so satisfying. I loved organizing my locker and those huge accordion/binder things for school haha
The first thing that came to mind with the foreign body is maybe a thread from gauze came off? Idk that is so weird!!! I'm glad you got to have some fun this week along with all the appointments!
Also, love your account of researching and questioning your assumptions and prejudices! More people should do that/be open to changing their minds in general.
+InviDoll Thank you! I always try to be as open minded as possible, but sometimes those prejudices just kinda creep in there and need to be reevaluated. I think that in most cases, or at least for me, prejudice is really just a by product of ignorance 💕
Your wound sounds very similar to a previous surgery site I've had. My body partially dissolved the black dissolvable stitches, turning them white, but it just couldn't quite do the rest on its own. The wound wouldn't heal until I went back in and had them pull the rest of the dissolvable stitches out with tweezers, and then basically had to restart the healing process. So that could be a possibility? Anyways, I'm happy you got it taken care of and hope you start to heal quickly!
Hey! I have tried basically all forms of cannabis medicine. Both with and without THC, hemp derived CBD, cannabis derived CBD, edibles, smokables, and topicals, you name it, I've tried it (just so you know I have a lot of experience and have done quite a bit of experimentation in this area, although I am not currently using any CBD, THC, or other cannabis products). I wanted to give some friendly tips on CBD oil: CBD oil that is hemp derived has a lower chance of working than CBD oil that is cannabis derived. Charlotte's Web worked for me for a while, but the affect it had lessened a lot after a few uses and I've heard this experience from other's who have used it. The difference between hemp CBD and cannabis CBD has a lot to do with plant biology that I don't understand well enough to fully explain to you. From personal experience, I have only had significant and consistent relief from cannabis derived CBD. This kind of CBD you do need a medical marijuana card for (usually), but it is very worth the extra process. If you go to a reputable dispensary to get the CBD oil that is cannabis derived it is just as safe as the hemp derived oil and there are some key questions you can ask to determine whether what you're buying is safe. There are also some very trusted brands that create cannabis CBD products specifically for medical use that are well dosed, easy to use, and work great! One of those brands is Mary's Medicinal. I highly encourage you to check out their website! Another thing to note is that getting CBD that has a very small amount of THC in it (like a VERY small amount, not enough to create a high) will help it to metabolize in your body more effectively and will help a lot more with sleep and nausea than CBD with absolutely no THC. If you want more information on this I can provide some helpful resources to you! I'm also definitely interested to see if the Charlotte's Web continues to work for you so keep us updated!
hi christina, i love watching your vlogs ive learned so much. i worked at a hospital on a hospice unit. cbd oil and also salves that contain pure cbd have been shown to benefit wound healing and also has been shown to heal pressure sores and also wounds that have been persistent. if you use the cbd just be careful. i hope that it doesnt cause you a reaction....if you dont react to the oil then you should consider using it on your pic line wound. hope you have a great day!!!!
I really love this design as well. It would be great for people who have to carry around a dose of an anti anxiety med as well. I use a small plastic bag in a makeup bag in my purse and they always eventually end up crushed up in there.
faeriesmak Maybe buy a tiny trinket box and keep them in there? Dollar Tree or a dollar store in your area should sell something like that for pretty cheap. I've also seen pill boxes at the dollar tree. Or if you have one of those crush proof wallets (I can't think of what they're made out of) you can try storing a dose of med in there?
Your shirts turned out so well! I especially like the second one that you modeled. I hope that you were able to get some of your room sorted through and organized.
+faeriesmak Thank you! I had never really done tie dye like that before, so I am so pleased by the results as well. The room is definitely a work in progress... lol but Im getting there
It will eventually get how you would like it to be. I am just really happy to see you able to do more things such as organize your room and go to the beach! XOXO
So awesome you found your other thumb splints! I was wondering at some time would you be willing to do a blurb on them pros and cons?! I know in the past you have mentioned them but was unable to locate them and now you found them! I believe if memory serves me correctly they are called "medagrips"?? Any how I had considered them but was unsure of them... I personally have the 3D Stable Thumb splint along with saw neck splints for all of my other fingers! O the life we live! Another idea on oils... I have been using doterras immortelle because like you I have weird scarring issues from surgery.. 😜 and rock on with the ukulele playing! I just started playing the baratone ukulele- so fun buuuut the tip of my pointer finger goes numb for a few days afterwards- weird and not sure what that's about! Any how it is always so great to see your weekly videos!
I have the exact CW hemp oil that you do and I had been taking it orally. I never even thought to use it topically. So I just tried some topically - we'll see what happens. I have noticed that taking it orally helps me sleep some, but doesn't seem to help with pain much.
Your hair looks awesome! I hope you get an answer as to what that string thing was, its really strange. I think I might just try the CBD oil, it sounds like it's awesome. Can you try and do a couple follow ups on if its still working at later points, and how well it works on different areas? Love and spoons!
Your skin spit out a stitch! Mine does that every time and mine don't get restitched or reglued. I don't dissolve the stitches well and they will work themselves up over a span of two months. My stitches are white-ish clear, as dissolvable typically are. My docs have me cover it for like a day or so....then use a little Neosporin and leave it to air when I'm awake to keep it clean and dry...but not TOO dry. If it's too dry, my skin will rip more.
Frankincense essential oil has worked really well for me with fading the scars I have. The scars I have are your average type of scars so take that into consideration but frankincense essential oil is good stuff!
+jarisa centeno The plastic ones? I would love to make some more. Wasn't sure if they would really sell. Shoot me a message on Etsy if you are interested and I can totally make it happen for ya ❤️
Thats what the bottom of my open heart surgery scar was like. Look into laser scar revision. I got it done on my scar and it made the itching and pulling go away.
+AnnetteLamour Interesting! I have had some cold laser therapy done by my dentist to try to help my jaw heal faster. I wonder id its similar. I will definitely look into this!
Some people mix cbd oil with coconut oil to create a balm or salve. I haven't tried proper cbd oil as it's so expensive in the UK but I've tried... Ahem... Other methods that contained thc. It was amazing for the pain but unfortunately gave me extreme anxiety.
I've tried ingesting CBD oil for the severe cramps that come with my PCOS and had mixed results. Perhaps I should try applying it topically or look for a different brand, I don't know. I will say, however, that it did seem to help my anxiety some.
Interesting to know. I have pcos and get terrible menstrual cramps and nothing I do seems to help (and I've tried everything, even changed my diet). A few months ago I even had to go to the ER to get a shot of diludad because it was so bad I couldn't stop crying. Sadly medical marijuana in any form is not legal yet where I live though.
You could try a TENS unit then. My mom has one (it was suggested by a doctor for a different pain issue) and it works fairly well for my cramps. It does feel a bit odd, because they use an electrical current to stimulate and overload the nerves, but they can be picked up for around $30-$40 on Amazon and don't require any sort of prescription or even talking to a doctor (though I would still talk to a doctor if you have the ability to, because they may be able to let you try one).
Christina if you are interested you should check out BlueRidgeHempco cbd roll ons. Its a small company run buy a guy in america and ive heard such good things! Im just about to order a headache roll on stick and theres south african amythest infused into it and many of their blends. Ive seen a review where a lady said it even helped her through labour! Im super interested in trying it, I personally smoke the plant rarely and enjoy the effects I get I feel like in a way it helps me grow emotionally and spiritually. Much love christina, in the past few of your videos ive been relating heaps with the things you talk about, Im so happy you are telling people about headspace because I love the app so much and think not enough people really give enough credit to the power of meditation practice. Andys voice is so calming too Im a total fan of that accent aha!
I'm really excited to follow your progress with CBD oil and how it helps with EDS pain! I am interested in how it works with our daily pain. Great vlog as always!
I would really like to try CBD myself, I am talking to my doctors at the moment to figure out a right treatment plan, but I heard many great things about it... Btw, my brother is a cannabis specialist (also studies it at uni (bio medicine) so if you need any help concerning strains ways of usage, interactions etc. I could ask
+CC S Very cool! The more I have been researching the more I realize what an art and a science it is. Thats a very cool profession. Ill let you know if I have any questions 💜
hi Christina, i've been having a lot of trouble finding correct help for my cerebral instability and pots in the netherlands. Do you maybe have tips and tricks for introducing treatment methods from other countries/online advices to your doctors??? some knowledge from the USA hasnt travelled over here yet... I have hypoglycemia, probably mcas and definately cci, but it's all unknown territory for the drs here.. 😦😑😑😬
Yeah, be careful with the Cannabis. I went around it and has a huge allergic reaction to it. We had to rush me to the hospital. They told me if I had actually inhaled or digested it (which thankfully I did not other than smoke and sitting on a couch where it had been smoked) that I could have gone into anaphylactic shock. That and just touching the stuff (haven't had an oil just sitting on a couch) made me break out in a rash/hives! I carry an epi pen now just in case, also we noticed a few other things were triggering my throat to swell shut. I have Crohns and lots of vitamin diffencancy and ever since my asthma has gotten worse and worse. It's like one thing set off another. So just be careful!
jeallen25 she's not doing actual cannabis! its oil they take everything out of it besides what makes the pain relief. she's not inhaling it or digesting it she's putting a pure cbd oil on her skin. she will be okay. she won't get high or anything and if she was gonna get an allergic reaction she would've already
+jeallen25 I was definitely extremely wary! But after I tried the CBD salve with my dentist without reaction I felt comfortable ordering the oil. So far so good, no reactions here. Idk if it would be a different story if it was another form of cannabis and not just the CBD. Thanks for looking out for me! 💜
Hi Christina. Currently typing with one hand because my wrist snapped and now I can't move it. I have all of the signs of hypermobility EDS, but i haven't been to a geneticist to be diagnosed. It's really hard to deal with chronic pain and everyone thinks you're making it up. Looking into CBD oil, because all the medications are so tiring.
I know that la mer creams where created by a biologist to minimize burn scars. It is a very expensive cream, but maybe look into it :) And I think you should definitely sell the bracelets for medical tags!
Girl, my room has always been a disaster and I hate organizing and cleaning, I just don't even know how to start or how to keep going. But I can take a clean room and turn it into chaos in a few minutes. It's my superhero power. It's supposed to be a sign of creativity, right? :D Also interesting to hear you talk about Charlotte's Web; I'd heard of it recently and am thinking about trying it for some chronic tendonitis and joint issues. Once I realized that CBD and THC were different things, I came around to it more. While getting high might be fun once in awhile, I didn't want to have to be high all the time in order to get a pain relief benefit. I'm gonna start looking for it...
Hey Christina, I love your videos and following your life! But these past three or four vlogs I've noticed the sound quality has changed and it makes it painful for me to listen because of my auditory processing disorder. It's like there's this metallic kind of screeching sound whenever you talk. Did your change/damage your camera microphone or do something different in the audio editing? I turn the volume down to the lowest possible, just so I can't hear the noise too much, but then I have to strain my ears to understand you... Is this something you could do anything about? Thank you for reading and for your vlog! /Alma
+Almandin Hey, thanks for that feedback! I am playing around with the sound and am not getting it quite right yet. The problem is that I often film in the car and end up with so much background noise that it's impossible to hear me but I haven't quite been able to get the sound sounding right. I agree with you, I don't like it either. I will try to remedy that in this weeks vlog. The background noise may be better than the weird grating sound quality 💜
I really want to get CBD oil for my mom and boyfriend who both have moderate to severe chronic pain for different reasons, but unfortunately it's pretty expensive and my budget is very tight at the moment. I'm so so happy to hear it's working for you!❤
I so look forward to your weekly vlogs Christina. It is thanks to you that I have a YuYu and that pillow and now I am trying the CW CBD oil and you will be getting an Etsy order from me soon as well:) So here I am in my bed on the other side of the world (on the island of Tasmania) but feeling close. I am an old hand at chronic illness now but always feel refreshed by your sharing your story with us no matter how grueling it is. Bright Blessings☆҉☆҉‿➹⁀
I love cbd oil. I wish people wouldn't put a stigma around cbd oil cuz it don't make you high or anything like normal weed! and hey it helps so I don't see anything wrong with tbh
+kpopfan forever77 That is how I am feeling myself. From what I have been learning Its so harmless and really should not even be lumped in with medical cannabis the way it is.
What would be the point of that? The single vlog format as is seems fine. And it's probably less editing for Christina to do. It's not like 30 mins is that long anyways.
I love organization, labels, decluttering and dollar store baskets are your best friends
+Mackenzie Powell Lol please come over! You would have a field day 😂
Christina Doherty I would love to, but I couldn't afford the gas money to drive there :(
LOL same! I am obsessed with anything related to organization. I'm guessing it's my mild OCD, but it's still so satisfying. I loved organizing my locker and those huge accordion/binder things for school haha
The first thing that came to mind with the foreign body is maybe a thread from gauze came off? Idk that is so weird!!! I'm glad you got to have some fun this week along with all the appointments!
Mandie Zangora I was thinking the same thing about it being a gauze thread!! My second thought was a loose thread, or fluff, from a pillow.
+Mandie Zangora Yeah! That's honestly what I have been thinking! I wonder if a strand of gauze got trapped and my body kinda reacted around that.
Also, love your account of researching and questioning your assumptions and prejudices! More people should do that/be open to changing their minds in general.
+InviDoll Thank you! I always try to be as open minded as possible, but sometimes those prejudices just kinda creep in there and need to be reevaluated. I think that in most cases, or at least for me, prejudice is really just a by product of ignorance 💕
Did the Dr send the white string thing to the lab.?. Hope so, let us know when you find out what it is🎈
Is coconut oil safe on your skin? Good carrier if it's safe.
Your wound sounds very similar to a previous surgery site I've had. My body partially dissolved the black dissolvable stitches, turning them white, but it just couldn't quite do the rest on its own.

DMT Meow yes I use cbd oil on some of my pt's
DMT Meow I didn't know it helps wound healing! can you send me a link to a good one that is somewhat cheap please?
+DMT Meow Very interesting! Wow thats great to know! Thank you, I could definitely benefit from that 💕
"it's a wild Christina!" you're mom is great!!
+Melissa Thomas ❤️
Hi! That pill-pendant with moon looks so pretty, I would buy one for my gf to wear in the heart beat when you plan to sell them at your etsystore. :)
+Hamajo Thanks! I can't wait until the lockets come in the mail and I get to make more. 💕
I really love this design as well. It would be great for people who have to carry around a dose of an anti anxiety med as well. I use a small plastic bag in a makeup bag in my purse and they always eventually end up crushed up in there.

Great ideas!
ALSO also! Next time you come to town, visit Cambridge Naturals in Porter Square for all kinds of natural healthcare treats.
I would totally love one or two of those lockets!! I have fibromyalgia and this would be perfect for an emergency dose of pain relief!!
I gasped when you got the moon idea. Very pretty I'd want one.
Yes, I will totally purchase one of those medication lockets ❤️❤️
Your shirts turned out so well! I especially like the second one that you modeled. I hope that you were able to get some of your room sorted through and organized.
+faeriesmak Thank you! I had never really done tie dye like that before, so I am so pleased by the results as well. The room is definitely a work in progress... lol but Im getting there

I use coconut oil and Aloe on my scars and have had really good results. I had a reaction to vitamin because it often contains gluten .
Your little slice of heaven is lovely. 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
Your skin spit out a stitch! Mine does that every time and mine don't get restitched or reglued. I don't dissolve the stitches well and they will work themselves up over a span of two months. My stitches are white-ish clear, as dissolvable typically are. My docs have me cover it for like a day or so....then use a little Neosporin and leave it to air when I'm awake to keep it clean and dry...but not TOO dry. If it's too dry, my skin will rip more.
The mysterious thread is so weird and kinda scary! I'm glad it's been found and being sorted.
Frankincense essential oil has worked really well for me with fading the scars I have. The scars I have are your average type of scars so take that into consideration but frankincense essential oil is good stuff!
I hope you can put those star earrings back on your Etsy shop
+jarisa centeno The plastic ones? I would love to make some more. Wasn't sure if they would really sell. Shoot me a message on Etsy if you are interested and I can totally make it happen for ya ❤️
Thats what the bottom of my open heart surgery scar was like. Look into laser scar revision. I got it done on my scar and it made the itching and pulling go away.
+AnnetteLamour Interesting! I have had some cold laser therapy done by my dentist to try to help my jaw heal faster. I wonder id its similar. I will definitely look into this!
I had mine done by a plastic surgeon. They numbed the area and then zapped me. Felt nothing. It was awesome.

I use the therapy bar from lush on my scars and stretch marks. It works really well on my skin and has faded my big ragged scars really nicly
Where do you order your stones and pendants?
Christina if you are interested you should check out BlueRidgeHempco cbd roll ons. Its a small company run buy a guy in america and ive heard such good things! Im just about to order a headache roll on stick and theres south african amythest infused into it and many of their blends. Ive seen a review where a lady said it even helped her through labour! Im super interested in trying it, I personally smoke the plant rarely and enjoy the effects I get I feel like in a way it helps me grow emotionally and spiritually. Much love christina, in the past few of your videos ive been relating heaps with the things you talk about, Im so happy you are telling people about headspace because I love the app so much and think not enough people really give enough credit to the power of meditation practice.

i use a cbd bio freeze type thing for my cci pain its the onlything that help other than ice. i use it for everything CBD is great!
I would really like to try CBD myself, I am talking to my doctors at the moment to figure out a right treatment plan, but I heard many great things about it...

Christina Doherty Wonderful😊 you helped me so much with your videos, so I am glad if I could give something back
Christina, the nerve pain you're describing sounds shockingly similar to CRPS-perhaps mention it to your doctor?
hi Christina, i've been having a lot of trouble finding correct help for my cerebral instability and pots in the netherlands. Do you maybe have tips and tricks for introducing treatment methods from other countries/online advices to your doctors??? some knowledge from the USA hasnt travelled over here yet... I have hypoglycemia, probably mcas and definately cci, but it's all unknown territory for the drs here.. 😦😑😑😬

I carry an epi pen now just in case, also we noticed a few other things were triggering my throat to swell shut. I have Crohns and lots of vitamin diffencancy and ever since my asthma has gotten worse and worse. It's like one thing set off another. So just be careful!

It's really hard to deal with chronic pain and everyone thinks you're making it up. Looking into CBD oil, because all the medications are so tiring.
I always use calendula ointment for my scars. It did work miracles for me, especially when mixed with bepanthen
I'll help clean! I love cleaning, I am like an in house maid, my parents love it. Also I wonder what that string was if it was unusual.
I know that la mer creams where created by a biologist to minimize burn scars. It is a very expensive cream, but maybe look into it :)
And I think you should definitely sell the bracelets for medical tags!
+Ely Star Interesting! I will look into that. Thank you! As for the bracelets, I definitely want to make more of those. So fun to play around with.
silent viewer here, just decided to say I love your vlogs :)
+Rebecca McCabe Aww well hi! 😊Thank you so much for commenting ❤️ Im glad you like my videos!

maybe coconut oil is good on skin on scars
Have you researched rick Simpson
I need that lock omg omg so cute and perfect for me. I suffer from fibromyalgia 💜🙏🏼

I really want to get CBD oil for my mom and boyfriend who both have moderate to severe chronic pain for different reasons, but unfortunately it's pretty expensive and my budget is very tight at the moment. I'm so so happy to hear it's working for you!❤
I so look forward to your weekly vlogs Christina. It is thanks to you that I have a YuYu and that pillow and now I am trying the CW CBD oil and you will be getting an Etsy order from me soon as well:) So here I am in my bed on the other side of the world (on the island of Tasmania) but feeling close. I am an old hand at chronic illness now but always feel refreshed by your sharing your story with us no matter how grueling it is. Bright Blessings☆҉☆҉‿➹⁀
I love cbd oil. I wish people wouldn't put a stigma around cbd oil cuz it don't make you high or anything like normal weed! and hey it helps so I don't see anything wrong with tbh
+kpopfan forever77 That is how I am feeling myself. From what I have been learning Its so harmless and really should not even be lumped in with medical cannabis the way it is.
Christina Doherty yes exactly!!
hey! we use the same cbd oil so if you want any diy tips mssg me!

CBD oil never worked for me, but I was using it for insomnia. Glad it is helping you though :)
rosielove11 I read in another comment that the cbd oil with thc works better because of the way your body metabolizes it.
I use Charlotte’s Web CBD Oil and love it.
Please, make shorter videos or divide 30 minutes to 2 videos around 15min
What would be the point of that? The single vlog format as is seems fine. And it's probably less editing for Christina to do. It's not like 30 mins is that long anyways.
