I know Im not the only one.

I cant even be arsed to name change, here goes.

Nervous fanny.

You know when someone falls - hard and cracks their chin or elbow or whatever, my stomach drops, I get a shot of anxiety that shoots through the pit of my stomach down to my fanny. Right in the middle of my fanny I get a horrible feeling of anxiety.

Its only started in the last few years, its really unpleasant. Its like a bolt of aniexty, and I ONLY get it when someone hurts themselves. Wtf is that all about?

Anyway, what weird shit does your body do? Confess.

fanny farts are normal Grin badIdeaGenes

doinmummy · 19/07/2012 23:19

Yes BadIdea I get air coming out of my fanny I call it a luff puff.

LittleWaveyLines · 19/07/2012 23:19

Yes to watery mouth blisters, yes to eye twitches when tired, yes to balloon hands when ill Grin

(I think finger blisters are maybe herpes/cold sore finger infections?)

Nagoo · 19/07/2012 23:19

rofl it certainly feels like internal poles.

Thistledew · 19/07/2012 23:18

Choccy- me too. I had a sequence of three abstract images that I used to dream about over and over when I had a fever. Two were just in sepia tones, and one in colour.

BadIdeaGenes · 19/07/2012 23:17

This is a bit embarrassing, but when I orgasm my muscles down there sort of spasm and they push some air out of my fanjo Blush

Please tell me this is at least vaguely normal...

drjohnsonscat · 19/07/2012 23:17

This is brilliant.

I get the enormous swelling fingers sensation.

I get an itch that literally feels like it's in the middle of my head. I guess it's a hayfever thing and it's an itch at the very end of the ear canal or at the back of my nose but it feels like it's in the middle of my brain.

When I see someone attractive I feel it in my toes. Sometimes my toes start telling me I've seen someone attractive before I've actually noticed the person consciously.

Oh and I can't eat walnuts - ow ow tongue hurting. Why are you people eating these shrunken poison devil brains?

I get a watery blistery thing right on the gum right at the back of my mouth...it I push it water comes out. I call it a spit bump.

cocolepew · 19/07/2012 23:16

I cry if someone touchs my bellybutton, it really hurts.

I sometimes think my ear is leaking. I'm convinced there is liquid coming out but there never is.

Macchiato · 19/07/2012 23:15

I get cramp in my ribs.. Drives me mental

AuntPepita · 19/07/2012 23:14

LittlewavyLines - yes I get the eyeball thing. I assume you are pressing your eyeball onto your retina

I also have the fanjo-belly button nerve link. Makes me shudder if I poke it, and not in a good way Wink

Nagoo · 19/07/2012 23:14

I think javelin arse is a spasm in your colon. I can't see what else it could be. It is definitely the javelin in my case, I think mushroom cloud bowel is a separate condition.

NiceCupOfTeaAndASitDown · 19/07/2012 23:14

Yes to E wee although having not done it for me it's usually been after drinking

just remembered sometimes when I need to sneeze but can't if I flap my right hand up and down it 'tempts' it out

cocolepew · 19/07/2012 23:14

Shock @ standby button. How bizarre.

toxtethogrady · 19/07/2012 23:13

what are internal poles? as in pole vaulting? is this a new condition?

Stannwigg · 19/07/2012 23:13

I really am still agog about Alice.

choccyp1g · 19/07/2012 23:13

Oh and I have a particular dream that I always have when I am running a high temperature.

TheEnthusiasticTroll · 19/07/2012 23:12

arent the blister things warts, you can get viral warts that are contagiouse but not of the sexually transmitted nature, maybe your immune system prompts an out break.

cocolepew · 19/07/2012 23:12

FFS piles not poles Hmm

toxtethogrady · 19/07/2012 23:12

they'll be re-writing gastro-intestinal medicine after this thread.

a warm flannel and sudocrem? Grin

shhhgobacktosleep · 19/07/2012 23:12

Haven't read beyond pg 5 yet but will do to hopefully find someone else who has an off button. Dh found it when rubbing my head one night. If he (or I assume anyone but no one else is getting that close Grin ) applies pressure to a certain point just to the right of where my spine fits into my skull I can't move at all, not even blink or speak. It's like putting me onto standby Grin

cocolepew · 19/07/2012 23:12

hurray Im not alone in my bubbly fanny.

I always thought javelin arse was nerve pain or internal poles.

Nagoo · 19/07/2012 23:12

no but I have ahd acid and then thought I was pissing myself continuously. Who said drug use wasn't glamourous?

toxtethogrady · 19/07/2012 23:10

Hmmm....the evidence for javelin arse does seem to be pointing towards trapped wind....

tho they may well be different conditions, mine felt like a large mushroom cloud had detonated mid bowel, rather than an upward jab of a javelin spear
