i keep thinking about how they use sonic advance 3 in particular in the one flashback in sonic prime, it's because that's where 'unbreakable bond' originates from!
Sonic and Tails' unbreakable bond is so important to sonic (the character and the series)
#sonic prime spoilers#unbreakable bond#sonic the hedgehog#miles tails prower#sonic prime#warning: i am about to ramble and the topic changes like 4 times and i am now too lazy to delete it all and make it into it's own post#i love sonic prime so so so much and i love how much it focus on sonic and tails' brotherhood#tails doesnt get much focus in the entire sonic series surprisingly#for being the literal 'luigi' of the series (little brother/player 2 to the main character)#and lots (not all) people often sideline or minimize the importance of their friendship#either for shipping reasons (invalid reason imo) or because they don't really care for tails (also invalid reason imo)#i love how much love to tails and amy prime gives. because despite how important to the series they are they get sidelined quite a bit#tbh the sidelining is worse for amy if you include fanworks too#amy is like the poster child of the main female character who gets hated on for 'getting in the way' of a fandom gay ship#and the effects of that are still felt now#people STILL act like that now and it makes me so sad!!!#i love amy so much. shes such a sweetheart. she just sometimes acts like the 12 year old girl she is and fandoms hate that#but yeah this is another reason why sonic tumblr is the best side of the fandom because i haven't seen people act like that-#- about amy here for a good 7 or so years

I honestly think neocities (as like, a tool) is super cool and fun and useful but also sooo many sites I've seen on there have a LOT of blinkies or other flashing graphics that you can't really turn off and that I don't think I've ever seen content warnings for. and it annoys meee. Flashing/flickering lights don't put me in any kind of actual danger (they just make my head hurt a bit, so I have to close my eyes) but that's not the case for anyone. It's irritating! I have to admit I don't fully understand how photosensitivy triggers work (I'm not even sure if that's the phrase I'm looking for?), but given the fact that most games/movies/shows will include warnings on them if there's flashing lights or strained colors, I get a little pissed off!
#diary#a side note is that I wish there were rhythm games with VERY minimal graphic effects#like it's super fun when they're flashy but also I looove them so much I wish everyone could play them#plus it'd be easier on whatever device you're using... I think........#I'll be honest. I've always wanted to try and figure out how to make one LOL#but there's a LOT of stuff to consider both in actually *making* the game and in making it *fun*

I will be forever grateful i can be on this new med. it's one a lot of folks also need and can struggle to have access to! It's important i be on it, especially if i start doing any vid collabs
(some of which, really, all of which, i unfortunately actually need to cancel that were in the preplanning stages, bc the election results have me wanting to wait and see how the general atmosphere of the country is before i agree to meet up with anyone. I feel bad for cancelling, but also i just can't know for sure how safe things are/might be going forward and I'd rather avoid the potential of. ya know. various not great things that could happen at a meet up, tho i would certainly hope they wouldn't. i don't feel like actually addressing them rn, u guys know what i mean)
That said, if the truvada initial side effects could fuck off asap would be so lovely. three weeks at worst, then they should be gone/much better or so i am told. really hope that's true bc losing my mornings to being dizzy and nauseous is Not Working for me lmao. im on week two, and now understand why my new doc said to call if i needed any 'cheerleading' and support to get thru the side effects, bc apparently she's done that for several ppl to make sure they actually make it thru the three weeks and keep on it (lovely of her!!)
#text post#not going to get into the other painful smack of this morning#suffice to say that medicaid does not in fact fully cover vocal therapy/training for trans ppl#even if ur docs feel incredibly certain it is#if i was making a decent bit over minimum wage at consistent hours and already had my current debts paid off mostly#then I'd happily consider paying the chunk Medicaid won't cover but as of now#it would literally be basically two paychecks if not three to cover the estimate for this first visit#and that's only if the poll would have us polling every week like we did before the election#otherwise we're guesstimating it would be upwards of 4 paychecks to cover it#I'm actually gonna get into in here bc nobody reads all my tag essays (fair valid and correct)#im really sad abt this. my voice gets me clocked a lot and while i can mostly handle like. visually being clocked#my voice giving me away genuinely makes me feel a pain in my chest. i can't get my customer service voice to go lower yet#and even if it's my usual voice I've made minimal progress on my own self done vocal study stuff#so like. no one knows how high it was compared to how it is now tho so no one actually hears it as anything near deep#which it isn't but like. there's been a slightly barely there drop of it per at least a couple ppl in my life#i was probably going to be able to learn how to sing again and find my new range. I'd fix my customer service voice#even if it would only ever be a teeny bit lower than how it is now. it would be lovely#im not gonna get too down tho bc someday hopefully I'll be able to make it happen/afford it#and for now...im doing the bad thing of not cancelling the appt yet#i will bc they're booking out for months and it isn't right of me to take a spot i know i can't keep#but. let me pretend i can for another day or two. maybe until monday. then I'll call or msg them on mychart#and let them know i just don't have the funds rn tho i do deeply appreciate that Medicaid at least pays part of it#im just not at a point where i can cover the rest but that I'll reschedule/have a new referral sent whenever that changes#...and hopefully things in this country will be of such a state that such care is still available to ppl like me.#but that's all we're saying on that bc im already having a pathetic little cry over this#(im fine the med side effects have me crying over everything lol i see a sad commercial and Instant Tears like someone died lmaooo)

Started on a new anti-migraine drug today (ajovy). Also have had terrible sleep - Especially today, but, like, all year. Also, y'know the migraines.
So not 100% sure if certain things are side-effects of the ajovy or just y'know, my body being upset with many things going on in its life - But more to the point: Should I be concerned with anything that I'm seeing/experiencing?.
Trying to google side-effects is sure a fucking trip, though.
Official company line on their site seems to be "Some swelling/irritation near injection site" is likely the only side-effect confirmed to definitely be from this medicine. Anything else? Well, that must be someone else's problem.
Various reddit posts of peoples' experiences with the medication - Mostly neutral-to-mildly positive. A lot of not-outright-negativity, but disappointment or frustration about the tradeoffs vs benefits. But the side-effects definitely vary wildly in type and intensity. The ones I'm curious about are topics of discussion that have come up with some degree of frequency.
Various interaction/drug rundown sites have much more comprehensive lists, but also include a warning that the ones I'm looking into may be serious/concerning and I should consult my doctor about them right away. Which, like, doesn't seem to be the tone regarding them anywhere else. So, more confusion as-to who's out of step here.
Meanwhile, the pamphlet that came in its box actually does have a more comprehensive list of possible side-effects. Doesn't list severity other than obvious "If experiencing anaphylaxis..." or other obvious emergencies/serious stuff, then go to ER/phone doctor immediately. Everything else listed is just sort of "This could happen" without any level of how concerned you should be.
The ones I've noticed are heartburn (Unusual for me without certain types and timings of trigger-foods, but not impossible to be something else going on that's unrelated to this). And notable joint-stiffness (hands and feet, especially on the same side as my injection), with a touch of joint pain. Both of those are in the "might happen in ~1% of patients" group. Which, hey, alright. That's fine. They're known to have a connection, echoing what the reddit posts were saying. From the tone in the pamphlet and on reddit, I probably don't need to be concerned unless they worsen or persist for a very long time.
Uncommon doesn't necessarily mean alarming, though I am curious as to if there's any correlation in the group of people that experience them. Any factor that might predict it, or explain why they're causing this reaction, y'know?
Okay. Good. No need to panic. Probably should sleep though. Less than 4 hours in the last 48 can't be good for me.
#rambling#migraine treatment#why is finding straightforward information on treatments and side-effects so tricky?#I guess this type of medication is relatively new as far as medicine classes go#but like they had to have been researching it for years by now#I wonder if the lack of clarity in official materials about side-effects reported as somewhat more common can be chalked up to trials#and how they - By design - Try to minimize complicating factors#so if patients are selected#rather than just blind trials#they probably don't have a ton of co-morbid conditions going on that could complicate trials#and render results ambiguous

started taking my adhd meds again yesterday (i had to pause them bc they prescribed me bupropion on top of my elvanse and that jusr gave me turbo tachycardia while not really helping with fatigue) and im finally able to do tasks again but now it's back to no appetite unable to eat enough and weird feeling of restlessness and unease
#i really get a big helping of bad side effects for every med i try while the actual positive effects are. minimal#got told that my particular combination of disorders makes it really hard to properly adjust my medications#fuck my stupid baka life i guess

Update
I got prescribed muscle relaxants for my back pain and they make me really groggy, hence why I haven't posted anything for the past two days. Sorry about that.
(Also, I stayed up til like 5 AM and got maybe six hours of sleep max, then had to go to my first therapy session with groggy brain and bad back. Thankfully Mom was there with me.)
(Then we had to stand in line for like an hour to get back our towed car that's not even ours- we're borrowing it from a friend while she's on vacation. So yeah. Fun times.)

I can feel myself trembling, sweet Din. My illness is absurd
#pikaposts#medical anomaly blogging#my medication is Not Working and unfortunately i believe it's my last option. there's nothing else to try.#so i don't know what comes next. i put up with vicious side effects for minimal reward.#i'm damned if i do and damned if i don't#and knowing that certainly isn't helping with the way i'm currently feeling

you know. i do think that weight loss- even smaller weight loss of like 20 pounds- from ozempic would legitimately make it worth it for me, in terms of the typical GI stuff. i just wouldn't want to stay on it forever, because it's expensive and a pain in the ass to administer, and to my understanding that is necessary to maintain the lower weight. though i do wonder if it'd work the same for me- since my weight gain was caused by a hormonal disorder that is now no longer ravaging me quite as hard. the big thing is just the risk of gastroparesis because i'd much rather remain at my current weight (which doesn't generally cause me health problems) than deal with that for the rest of my life. idk. bit of a moot point because my insurance doesn't cover it for anything but diabetes anyway, but it's been recommended to me by a couple different doctors, so it's been on my mind every time i see a dumb joke or whatever.
#weight mention#idk i know i'll never be thin it'd just be nice to be like 180 again#i don't think my weight CAUSES anything on its own but it does hurt my ankles on soft ground sometimes#and it's just generally much easier to exist in a smaller body albeit largely due to systemic fatphobia#not that i labour under the delusion that it'd make buying clothes n whatnot easier. unfortunately my ass will always be bodacious#the feeling of taking up too much space and being disgusting to look at is smth ive had since before i was ever actually fat#so i don't think that'll ever go away#hell idek if people would treat me better i got way more shit about my weight when i was thinner but reeking of insecurity tbh#but i would like how i look better. which does matter. i just don't want to do it if the side effects are bad#and i especially do not want to risk yoyoing and gaining more weight#cos being at a stable weight for the first time ever was like. huge for me. and gaining weight has generally been an unending nightmare#i told my doctor hey if i could take a medication that makes me thinner with minimal side effects i obviously would#but what i already take (metformin) is cheap and well-studied. and even then starting it was brutal just worth it to stop gaining#ozempic is expensive new and understudied. so i want to wait. and she was like that is absolutely perfectly reasonable#because ultimately losing 20 pounds is not going to be such a radical improvement to my health that it's worth potential longterm issues#20 pounds comes from that study finding the avg was 5-10% of body fat fyi. So for me at 250 it's 15-25 that I'd expect

Traditional Chinese medicine shows potential in cancer treatment
Cancer remains a leading cause of death globally, with current treatments often resulting in significant side effects and resistance. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), particularly an herbal extract called Huaier, shows promise as an adjunct cancer therapy, boasting multitarget effects and minimal side effects. Huaier’s active polysaccharides have demonstrated antitumor properties, enhancing chemotherapy efficacy and reducing toxicity. While in-vitro and in-vivo studies highlight its potential across various cancer types, further research is required to clarify its mechanisms and validate its safety and efficacy in larger clinical trials.
