#Arthritis and stress
Text
can’t believe i’ve had an autoimmune disorder for most of my life that no one took seriously until a flare up so bad started a few months ago, that im in constant pain BUT now that im an adult i could take myself to a doctor and get a diagnosis 🫡
#i told my parents about how id been having flare ups as early as elementary school#like my skin was basically falling off in bloody pieces when i was 8#anyway i can’t stress about this rn i got my medicine im just gonna hope for the best#also why i have arthritis-symptoms and am in much pain always

Yes my darling my dearest of course you can have the couch and I will sit on the floor because you don't know it but you can't have any treats until after your glorified spa day with x-rays tomorrow.
#bart the greyhound#we're having him x-rayed to check if he has early onset arthritis from racing#also to give his teefies a polish and trim the clawsies#he's a dreadful patient and last time he had anaesthetic with the drip in the front leg#he licked and worried at the little pinprick wound so relentlessly it turned into six weeks of wrangling steroids and biting :/#long dogs are best dogs#dogs are joy#pet stress on top of everything else what a perfect distraction! 🙃

my new psychologist suggested that i combat my ennui by doing Whatever it is that i did for kicks when i was a teenager, so i have decided to return to my ancient art of MS Paint pixel dolls. but first i have to make myself doll bases entirely from the ground up 👍
#putting this here instead of my art blog bc it's just a WIP shhhh#working with a mouse is so much less stressful on my arthritis than using a tablet 😩

baby didn't poop for like 3 days and seemed to be doing badly cause she wouldn't leave her closet spot for a long time and i was having to bring her food mixed with water, so i was starting to panic, but she just snuck into the bathroom and took the biggest crap on the floor i have ever seen (politely covered with a paper towel) and is now cuddling with me like usual. thank you sweet angel...
#catposting#unsanitary cw#i'm trying to get a vet appointment for her cause pretty sure this is arthritis related#and probably stress from the construction

do you guys think that getting a stylus for my phone would help with my hand pain?
like, i already do everything i can on the computer which I've made ergonomic. i asked a friend who does woodworking to give me one of the phone stands he makes for his friends with arthritis and have tried using it. but i can't completely recover because i still need to do some day to day stuff on my phone and every way of touching it Feels Bad
#my therapist thinks it's a repetitive stress injury. i blame pocket camp#my dad has been dissuated from thinking im whining but hasn't moved an inch#i have been trying to get this diagnosed and treated since probably november but all the exams served for so far was to rule out arthritis

always fun to remind myself of the side effects of my thyroid meds
#the first time i treated my thyroid my endo was like ‘i havent had a patient who had this happen for a while so im due for one’ THANKS MAN#personal#im just waiting for it to hurry up and work. my health has PLUMMETED in the last week or so#im so sick and i can’t DO ANYTHING. including SLEEP. even if i was getting enough good sleep i was be exhausted but i’m not so.#the energy’s doing Great#and i’m so hungry all the time but also nauseous so all food is unappealing#genuinely have no idea how i made it through years 7-10 undiagnosed. no wonder i ended up with such a severe phobia of going to bed????????#i don’t have to worry about routine right now so it’s not as stressful (just horrible because i’m so tired) but i COULDNT SLEEP back then#im just relieved that this time it was found through a routine check rather than me getting a test because of symptoms#usually i test when my anxiety gets really bad in a specific way#but my anxiety isn’t bad this time. no panic attacks and also no migraines. those are all usually the worst to deal with#so comparatively this isn’t even a particularly bad episode?/relapse?/flare?#still more sick than i’ve been in……..years?#im not sure if covid was better or worse. but it was only really bad for a week#this’ll be worse overall because it’ll last a lot longer#hopefully only a month or two but that’s still a few months of my life that just vanish. cool!!!!!!!!!!!#and there wasn’t even a notable event to trigger it this time. first time was whooping cough and subsequent times have been things like—#starting uni and then the last 2 years of uni where i took 10 units in one year then overworked myself doing my thesis#im SLIGHTLY worried that maybe i’ve developed rheumatoid arthritis and that set it off because it’s also autoimmune#i should see my gp soon to get a general antibody test. my joint have been so bad it’s been hard to walk for quite a few months#idk man it all sucks. but for now at least i have my white blood cells (even if they’re literally the problem lmao)

i wanted to draw dilf peter (and wifey (flash))
(well actually they're childless, so not a dilf, but, still, the vibes are there)
(she/her for flash please)
my handwriting is very bad so i’ll write what it says under a readmore:
—
Top left in the all-black suit (2024):
Peter: Man, I’m only 36.
—
Top right in the classroom (2032) (45 yrs old):
Student: Mr. Parker, did you get hit by a car?!
Peter: Uh... sure, let’s say that.
(he’s not left-handed)
(wolverine(?) broke his scapula and clavicle) (still not decided lol)
—
Bottom pic, smooching his favorite pretty girl (2037) (49):
(he’s graying fast)
Peter has arthritis
Flash has carpal tunnel in both wrists (50)
#nadiart#peter parker#Flash Thompson#trans flash#rough art#peterflash#peter slowly retiring from spidey and focusing on teaching cause he keeps hurting himself#his shoulder never recovers all the way from that one but he already has arthritis by his mid 30s obv so already having issues#but this will actually be the second time he's broken that same shoulder blade so it just causes problems for him now lol#left wrist is the wrist fisk broke when peter was 18 that peter set and splinted himself in the bathroom#which is why it's the first to start having serious problems but by the time he's 49 he's got arthritis in his fingers shoulder wrist etc#all over#spidey not unlike ballerinas in needing to retire early due to stress injuries it turns out#peterflash timeline au#came in through the window last night

ik i’ve talked about my ~illnesses~ quite a lot but good news!!! spoke to an obg today (who also works with a lot of trans patients!!! yay!) who finally got me an ultrasound for next month to check on my abdomen for fibroids n cysts (hoping that’ll be clear!) and then and she recommended going back on t at a low dose to manage my pain n inflammation and i think that’s a great idea and also oooh gender soup. it feels… very good to like actually be listened to and have a plan n start getting somewhere ! so yay!
#from the fields#also have an appt with a rheumatoid arthritis specialist in the spring but !! hopefully i’ll get that sorted out too#but yea :’> it’s been stressful n i missed a day of work last week cuz of it so i really wanna get thru it!#medical mention

Today has been a very rough day. Half way through my work day my old boss comes into my job. My best friend and I who used to both work with him were on duty. My best friend is now the manager, which was this man's prior job when he was working with us.
He comes in, walks behind my friend and I while we're focused on working on something and he says to my friend "having fun watching the handicap work?"
For those who don't know, I'm disabled. I try to always come at it from a positive light, but it does get me down. Especially right now, I'm very down about what goes on with me.
That comment didn't sit well with me, obviously. But as I'm dealing with a lot of stress, anxiety and depression right now, I just tried to ignore him and focus on my task. But he didn't take to being ignored too well.
He stood behind me while I worked and said "well that's what you are, a handicap!" All I could muster up at that point was a simple I don't appreciate that. I don't refer to my disabilities in the way you're speaking about them right now.
Being the kind of person he is, he then proceeded to out loud list my disabilities, with customers in the store for everyone to hear. Ending that with "see a handicap!"
Accused me of trying to hide it, said I couldn't hide it from him, he worked with me, he's fully aware I'm a handicap!
Mind this man's tone was rude, was demeaning. He was trying to humiliate me. The whole time he was laughing. He's fully aware of the difference between saying someone is disabled between calling someone a handicap. Especially when mocking me and asking if my best friend is having fun in his new management position by watching the "handicap" work.
This is a man I went out of my way to help on countless of occasions. A man who made me do his own management job because he was too lazy to do it himself. He'd rather sit out in his car and nap during his shift.
Yet I still tried to see the good, I helped him whenever he asked. I was always kind, polite and understanding with him. Never strayed him wrong. Yet he comes in and completely humiliates me!
I was so upset, entirely speechless. After he left I went outside and I cried in the back of the building. One, for the cruel words. Two, for the humiliation and three for feeling so stupid for going so far to help this man.
I feel bad enough in the body I am. I struggle enough as it is. To go so far as to do what he did is disgusting! It truly hurt. It broke me down when I've already been feeling broken.
So it's easy to say today has definitely been a hard day.

If I’m gonna be researching my own health problems and caring for them with the equivalent commitment of a part-time job anyway, I feel like I ought to be earning a degree and getting paid for this
#it's exhausting!#why do I keep getting stabbing stings on the bottom of my foot!#why all the recent variety in nerve pain?#stress? developing an exciting new disorder? years of taking hydroxychloroquine for arthritis?#pinched nerve in my back?#god just hates me?#I should be getting a grant to study this clinically

both my mom and my sister really need to contact hospitals rn and it’s stressing me outttt
#in mom’s case it might be something chronic like she was at risk for arthritis#but she doesn’t want to call because she ‘should have improved her insurance first’ and…I get it but it’s already too late to get ‘better#insurance’ for this since she’s got one meeting with a rheumatism doctor in her log#she won’t get better insurance and it’s just getting worse…quickly#in my sister’s case she’s had some kind of clearly very distressing pain since Monday night#in the lower part of her tongue and now she’s saying it’s spreading backwards in her mouth but she won’t call 1177 because ‘it’s too tiring’#they’re both stressing me out !!!!! please just go to the hospital before it gets worse jfc#rant#I get they don’t want to spend a lot of money on meds or end up getting expensive treatments but…if it’s actually serious stuff they’re#gonna end up paying anyway :/#in my sisters case she shouldn’t even have to worry about costs I think she’ll at most end up paying like 100€…which is a lot of money but#globally? for health care? :/ not really#she just doesn’t want to call and sit in the phone queue… but she’s also too distracted by the pain t eat comfortably and discuss what we#should do…idk

Girl help I did the thing you’re not supposed to do (googling medical conditions) I think I have radial tunnel syndrome
#either that or the other thing the internet is telling my is arthritis#but hopefully I don’t have arthritis#probably I’m just sleeping on my arm wrong or something#sometimes opal says stuff#but symptoms are very radial tunnel syndrome plus hypothesis for what might’ve caused it checks out#but also jt is midnight so I am definitely over exaggerating and jumping to conclusions#sleeping on jt wrong is probably what happened#or jts like psychosomatic#a manifestation of stress or smth
