If anyone needs me, I’ll be disassociating (read: doing my silly little #crafts and sniffing glue :blobfoxgooglytrash: ) Anyone else crafting their way through the apocalypse? Whatcha working on?! #NES #nintendo #wip

Hi, I missed you #fedi friends! :neofox_heart: I have 7 doctors and still no answers. A neurosurgeon actually said to me "welp, I got nothing for ya" after ordering a lumbar puncture and brain MRI. I did not yeet him into the sun only because it was a remote […] [Original post on hachyderm.io]

Guuuuurl this year is kicking my ass #chronicpain #chronicillness
Multiple slides: 

BITCH
WHERE YOU BEEN?
HAVE YOU SEEN THIS JENNA?


LAST NOVEMBER MY WHOLE
RIGHT SIDE STARTED
BURNING & STABBING...

THEY TOLD ME
IT WAS SCIATICA
& | COULD PUSH THROUGH


WHEN THAT
DIDN'T WORK
| WENT TO PT & DID
THE WORK & TRIED
ALL THE TECH.

BUT IT KEPT GETTING
EVEN WORSE
SO | STARTED SO
MANY, MANY TEST,
(BLOODWORK BANDAID CHIC
IS. MY AESTHETIC NOW)

I'VE ALWAYS HAD SERIOUS
HEALTH CHALLENGES,
BUT NERVE PAIN IS AN
ENTIRELY NEW LEVEL OF BS
(SPOON THEORY NEVER HIT SO HARD)

| CAN'T PUSH THROUGH...
OR WALK IT OFF
OR DRIVE
OR LIFT ANYTHING
OR MAKE PLANS
OR FOCUS
 OR STAY AWAKE

SO | DISAPPEARED...
AND MISSED SO MANY
IMPORTANT EVENTS
AND LET DOWN SO
MANY IMPORTANT FRIENDS
(EVEN LOST A FEW)


SOME BEAUTIFUL DAYS | HAVE SPOONS
BUT MORE OFTEN |
LOSE DAYS & DAYS
TRAPPED IN BED
(AT LEAST MY NURSE IS CUTE!)

| HAVE THE MOST
FANTASTIC SUPPORT!

(PLEASE KNOW I'M DOING MY BEST AND,
DON'T GIVE UP ON ME!)

NEVER FEAR!
I'LL BE BACK
LOVE YOU
