i love that endos will 1) prescribe me only three months of meds at a time 2) insist i see them for an appointment before getting refills 4) have no availability until ~four months since last appt and 5) refuse to refill meds before the new appointment :)))

Geez, I'm exhausted. I'm making medication changes again and it's not...easy. I feel like I've been trying a new med in an endless loop for a decade. And I flunk out on nearly every med I try because the intersection of diseases is cruel and I have paradoxical reactions. *sighs*
My left wrist is kind of stiff today. No pain, though, which is good, just enough to remind me how life can change on a dime.

There are a few things that will pretty reliably flare my endo up, but also like 90% of the time it just feels like a dice roll. I take it back about barometric pressure migraines being the worst because you can't control the weather. This is the worst because I don't even know what happened 🤣😭
bro my back hurts from pushing around all these damn carts full of shit
I know most vitamins and supplements are scams or unnecessary but I’ve been taking a B12 consistently again and I have so much more energy. Or like, enough that I noticed.
Repeating Exercises #dementia Getting Mama to repeat is already a challenge. But on the days she's being a busy body, it's impossible to stimulate her and get some brain exercises in. #caregiverlife #caregiving #caringformom #dementiamom #dementiajourney #dementiasupport from Divas and Dementia divasanddementia.wordpress.com…
I thought they were making people go blind? All drugs are 'miracle meds' until the ppl taking them start keeling over.

Just lost yet another morning for no reason and disrupted my routine AGAIN because dentist cancelled on me WHEN I GOT THERE, AGAIN, this is the 3rd cancellation in a row, 2nd time WHEN I ARRIVED, totally new dentist. I am so beyond sick of the NHS.
Meditation is a great way to clear your mind and fill it back up with new terrible ideas
Sleep is too shallow and my waking hours I feel barely there some days. Politics aside there are some other pieces of news that have got me in full on "get everyone I know on board with mutual aid, communal effort and most importantly MASK THE FUCK UP" mode. And this was before the Russian plague

Perimenopausemaxxxxxed so hard today that I bought my own protein (tofu) to put on top of my canteen lunch (jacket potato and beans).
I'm sure the vaccines I'll be getting today will go GREAT
This. We need to stop seeing diagnosis as a prerequisite for being flexible and making adjustments. Everyone benefits from the (usually small) changes required. I was talking about this yesterday, for instance how you can sense as a teacher who might struggle with eye contact.
Period cramps so bad I'm considering urgent care or the ER
some days the overwhelm of basically starting over with exercise, on top of doing it because I have a hyper-mobile body that desperately needs stability, just brings all that grief back up of having to manage this condition for the rest of my life
I had less sleep for several days, no appetite, and excess activity? Hypomania protocol engaged.

Why stop at CKM? Why not CKLM www.nature.com/articles/s41... For that reason - CKM also involves brain, pancreas, bones, vasculature Why not call it CKLBPBVM? 😎
when i was born the cord was wrapped around my neck and when they finally got me out i was so high off the painkillers they gave my mother that i nearly died and had to be taken away for hours before anyone was allowed to hold me and i think it will affect my psyche for the rest of my life
I’m lowkey pissed that when I was diagnosed with bipolar nobody told me about how important *lifestyle* is to managing it. If I knew consistent sleep schedules were doubly important for me, I probably would’ve left Chipotle sooner.
Sharing a table does not mean sharing a schedule. Health Assistant is a place to discuss your priorities alongside the meals and time you share. #healthassistant #sharedmeals #food
Just been fitted with a blood pressure monitor to be worn for the next 24 hours. I really thought it might have been more sophisticated than the Heath-Robinson device that has been lashed up.

While I have been free of all disease this last six years, I fear that the total lack of human contact may have left me immunodepressed. I am going to the UK to flail in mosh pits for much of November and December. How does one get a flu and Covid jab in France?
Mental Illness is a competition and the most severe one wins #shitpost
Many people who get into trauma recovery are frustrated to learn that we can’t just jump right into confronting or working through our traumatic memories and feelings— but we first have to develop what I call cognitive & emotional “cardio” for the fight ahead.
my body is going through hell, fuck fevers
Having not one but multiple disabilities that are terminal illnesses is such a heavy weight these days
Also okay dammit yesterday I learned that apparently estradiol doesn't expire after 28 days and you're supposed to just stockpile it?? God fucking dammit man lmao that makes sense I guess but dammit Still doesn't feel right even though it makes sense. Is sesame oil really gonna go off after 4 weeks
All I want is dental surgery, you know?
my body making a strong case daily that i am a biphasic sleeper (sleep 2-4 hrs, awake 2-4 hrs, another block of sleep). this, however, is not always ideal to fit into workday schedules
I’ve had a crushing headache since I woke up this morning and I would very much like it to fuck off already 😭
Ok so update; I had to go to a&e, where I waited all night because the NHS is underfunded and the talented and lovely folks who have been treating me (and not being transphobes!) had to also treat 100 additional people. This may affect the stream later but right now I'm full of painkillers so yay!
antipsychotics are an ontologically evil class of drug
do i have a disorder what the fuck is going on man

My weight loss is going good, but it looks like im going to be put on a glp-1 anyway to help it along.
If you have the extra money, I recommend investing in some dumbbells and basic workout equipment for the winter, especially if you live where it snows. You never know when you might be snowed in and can’t make it to the gym. Ppl sleep on at home workouts
i think everyone should be entitled to a complementary spine replacement at age 35
