“So that others may live” EMS. I can’t stand hypocrisy. I thrive on sarcasm. I’m autistic.

Trying to get into: “The Wire”, “30 Rock”, and “Parks and Rec” but, I can’t concentrate on anything. It’s like I’m here but also not here.

Was in septic shock and had AMS in March. They didn’t want to do pain meds because of my hypotension. So they did precedex (odd) and ketamine. Ketamine gets 0/10 *s. I woke up one day thinking I was part of Pirates of the Caribbean… What a trip… There will be no more of that…

Made it through another critical illness. Now recovering at home after 18 days in the hospital. I have to follow up with way too many specialists. Currently I can’t even microwave veggies with running out of breath. I hope everyone is doing as well as they can be in these trying times!

So the hospital called the cops on me because they thought I left with a IV in place instead of just looking in the sharps container. Which begs the question: Why are police officers enforcing hospital policies like they’re laws? Once that IV is in my body, it belongs to me. If they tried to take 1/

Went back to the ER yesterday because I had an allergic reaction. When they took my vitals they were all really elevated. I honestly didn’t feel ill, just extremely itchy from the rash. When the provider saw my vitals, they were concerned and told me to stick around to see if they came down. 1/

Received a wonderful nap yesterday into today. And all it took was Roc, Precedex, and Propofol… Procedure is done with only moderate discomfort. My neck and throat also hurt from the intubation.

I rushed back to FL in time for my “preop” appointment to finally get some relief, only to wait for 3 hours and spend less than 5 minutes with the PA telling me they never scheduled the procedure and the soonest it can be done is mid-January. Fucking joke. Been trying to get it done since May…

I have one more appointment tomorrow, then the rest of the month off. I had 3 appointments this week so far over the last 2 days and had to nap both days. I did challenge a different expressway today which is progress. Now to try and sleep. Night frens.

My ID doctor literally admitted today that they will not treat my UTIs until they turn into bloodstream infections. Or else they’re just “colonizations”… They said, if I wanted a second opinion, I could go to another hospital (they have a monopoly at the one I go to) They keep saying it’s for my 1/

So insurance companies and healthcare orgs get into agreements to see what each will pay. Once OOP is reached, as long as you’re in network, whatever insurance doesn’t cover the healthcare org drops. So how is it, can an org decide 5 years later, they aren’t going to honor that and I owe $6k?…

My doctor wrote a prescription for my medical supplies for 2 years. Now, the supply company say the require an “updated prescription with a visit and notes every six months”… Of course this happens at the end of the year when insurance and medical expenses are expected to double…

It’s extremely frustrating that I’m told not to use the portal because my issues require “emergent interventions”. But, then I’m waiting 2 days to get a call back from the Dr’s office. Like pick a struggle, is it emergent or not… (Yet, I’m the problematic one for only using the portal)… 🫤👈🏽

Lost another thermometer in my room. So, that’s about 4 or 5…. Just shaved and took a shower, on top of being up for 36 hours already, I’m too exhausted to look for it. O2 also is dropping too many times this week. When will there be a break, ffs…

Realizing that I’m more broken now than I ever was before and just thinking what the next steps are. My PCP already said they wouldn’t sign my POLST because they didn’t like the “comfort measures”. I said, if y’all don’t want me to have peace when I’m alive, why should I have it dying?…

My doc’s office didn’t respond to me for 2 days. They called me 2x within an 8 minute window, 80 minutes before the office closed on Friday, then proceeded to call the cops to do a wellness check. The problems they just created pisses me off beyond belief at a time where too much is already going on

How do my medical professionals feel about AI for patient care. I was asked twice this week about “am I okay with the provider using it to help with notes” and honestly I don’t feel comfortable with it. AI gets to decide what is/isn’t important?…

So we sent 7 B-2 bombers with a combined total of 14 GBU-57s. 420k lbs of bomb, 36 hours of flight time each, 3.5 million lbs of fuel to Iran for “imminent danger” and might not of even did much but sped up Iran’s time of becoming a nuclear power. Trump is losing a lot of his cult over it though…
