Wait, Anna - doesn't this belong in the thread @AngeNZ started, about dumbest/stupidist/most spectacularly funny thing you've done vaping (or something like that)? This is a real first, and something the likes of which, I've never expected to read here. Seriously trumps branding your finger with a hot coil or something!No. I had this whole laxative/clonidine/valium event. That has all been discussed elsewhere. Basically I overdid it with the laxative and have not been happy.
I then had.... what I thought might be hemorrhoids. I don't mind talking about it because I gave birth so like I KNOW that happens, so I was like, "OMG." (The next day) I HAVE NO IDEA how BULEMICS DO THIS. I was like, "Jeez, I wish I had me a real life laxative bulimic in front of me to CONSULT" because really I was DYING. I was in so much pain. I limped through my day. With several errors. At 1:30 I went to CVS and bough 35 dollars in hemorrhoidal products because I was like, "This is HELL." Also, I was at work so you can't.... Do the sort of investigation that might be necessary. I work in a healthcare office but I was not ABOUT to ask a coworker to like, loan me a hand mirror to explain my H situation. I just sort of went, and applied everything, as best I could.
I went home. I was alone. Keep in mind there are more than one type of H. Some are soft and squishy, some are like hard and AWFUL and this seemed to be the latter. I didn't want to do much TO it because well, you know, you don't want your epitaph to read "I bled out trying to figure out what kind of H I had at work, and they found me dead pants down in the bathroom."
NO one wants that kind of funeral.
So I limped home, and I was like ALL READY to go hand mirror in hand and I was like, "That looks METALLIC."
Being a hardy sort I was like, clearly it should not be there, and managed to extract it.
I will note, I have little ceramic plates and I put things in them. coils, pieces of glass, whatever.
Unfortunately (and it was NOT a small coil!!! One of my favorite coils, actually, a Fumytech Rose 3 coil. But it wasn't all small and tiny, it was large.
At some point I threw my night meds in my ceramic bowl meant for the coil and I just SWALLOWED all of them.
I will admit, the removal was like, really spectacular. I could barely walk and now I feel fine. I did not keep the coil to vape with though. Although it was undamaged. I could have used it. I made a concerted decision to NOT do that.
I mean, at least my bowl is not perforated, and like, the "H" symptoms ceased. Immediately.
I still may never leave the house again and also I might get some "therapeutic" um, plastic surgery and change my name. You know. That type of thing.
This is all as true and as factual as I can make it. I ate a coil and recovered it upon exit.
This IS the vape equivalent of a Darwin award and like, I understand if you have to make fun of me. I totally would in your shoes.
Well, I like to think not. But I EXPERIENCED it so I have more empathy for myself and for anyone else who could make this tragic mistake.
Also I spent like 36 bucks on witch hazel and all sorts of "H" stuff and I could have bought a drip tip or a one way ticket to a deserted island.
Yep. Wondering if the big A is coming early. To be fair, I have been stressed OUT BUT OMG HOW COULD I DO SUCH A THING???????
Anna
edit: I forgot to ask, now that you've extracted it, is the coil vaping ok?
