LIVING WITH A CHRONIC ILLNESS/DISABILITY By Will             If you want to battle your chronic illness and/or disability, one should be ready to immerse themselves within the issue or issues and get as much education about them as possible.             We have always figured this – the more you know, the easier it should or could be to get a handle on those days when you feel like the…

Went to my second PFT test and the lady was like,

“Have you ever had a CT scan???”

Me: “No… just a bunch of X-Rays. Never find anything on it, but I’m still hacking up a storm so they just throw more prednisone at me.”

Doctor: “…You should think about getting by a CT scan. Because this isn’t making SENSE.”

Sister: “THAT’S WHAT WE’VE BEEN SAYING.”

Doctor: “…Welp. I’mma make some notes. Here’s another bottled water and while I shouldn’t give you a couple puffs of Albuterol because your numbers aren’t low enough you’re kinda dying so I’m gonna make ANOTHER note and give it to you anyway. We’re also gonna rerun the first test again after the Albuterol just to see how much it opened your lungs up so your specialist can compare the numbers.”

Me: “…I’m gonna HATE the number three after today.”

Doctor: “Hehe. They all do.”

Anyways. I crashed after getting home. Still kinda nauseous but eyyyy was finally able to use my inhalers and nebulize. Woooooooo.

Now I just gotta convince the doc to actually schedule a CT scan during my next appointment in the next few days… assuming I can actually get to it. ☠️

I have been noticing things, and I don't know what to make of them, so I am bringing them to you, because you have been blessed/cursed by Apollo's dodgeball and are also great at connecting dots. I apologise.

I am worried about Buck's lungs. His sats dropped when he was in a coma, to the point of needing ECMO, but during his recovery we only saw him see a cardiologist, no respiratory rehab was mentioned. Now his PT scores are down. The show has also been weirdly pointed about focusing on sats monitors being put on people's fingers during calls. They've done it on at least 3 of the calls since Buck's been back, and at no point have the people's sats been mentioned - even the woman face down in dough, who was started on oxygen. That in itself isn't a big deal - they're a quick way of getting a heartrate, and its standard practice to put one on. But why keep showing them? Then this week, Maddie had the call with the kid where she had to remind him how to breathe.

So, what do you think? Is there anything there, or am I projecting because I'm having to have respiratory physio after covid?

Just when I thought I couldn't get any more unhinged! No, there is DEFINITELY something there and I'm not gonna be normal about it. There are a couple of different places my mind went to (because it's not just Buck, Eddie's in this too) so apologies if this is scattered:

Buck + Death is the big overarching theme looming over Buck's healing journey. Buck's life has been about Death since before he was even born, when he was conceived to be a savior baby...and was a match...but Daniel still died anyway. And Buck has been running towards Death ever since, seeking it out, courting it like a lover without even realizing why, never knowing that Daniel's ghost was haunting him. He has internalized so completely this idea that his value is entirely dependent on what he can do for others, on how much he can sacrifice, can give, up to and including his own life. The fact that the problem was Buck's lungs in the episode where he was reckoning with Daniel for the first time while trapped in his subconscious mind was inspired and a huge callback to Buck Begins, after Buck first learned about Daniel, with Buck in the warehouse fire taking off his mask and telling the guy he was trying to save that he would just hold his breath. And Buck's been holding his breath in a sense ever since. Spiraling. Stagnating. Regressing. He quit therapy. He trapped himself for a year in a soulless relationship because he was already depressed but then the shooting happened and Eddie basically told him he wasn't allowed to keep trying to kill himself, taking away one of his main self-harming coping mechanisms (passive suicidality brushed off by telling himself he's actually helping people), all of that.

There are also the crush injuries surrounding him (which I wrote about in 6A as being super sus). Thomas and Mitchell and a car accident crush injury, the first call where Buck begins explicitly associating romantic love with death. Buck being crushed under the ladder truck, which ultimately led to the blood clots and a pulmonary embolism because he wouldn't let himself rest and recover, wouldn't let himself heal or slow down, because he was too focused on getting back to work where he could (in his mind) be useful, be worth something, could save lives. And he admitted then that he didn't know what/who he was without the job, and ironically almost torched all of his relationships with the people who love him regardless in order to get back to it. And then of course there's also Lev. Lev trying to find the secrets to happiness but instead being crushed to death by a walkway that collapsed because the hotel identified the problem but never made the repairs. And it was through him that Buck started thinking that he could find all the answers he's been looking for in death.

But...Buck died. Actually died. And despite his joke about his math powers and being the guy with the answers, he doesn't have them all.

At the end of 6x11, he took a breath. He took a step. He allowed himself a little bit of self-awareness, of self-reflection, he dipped his toe into the water of the root trauma that has led him to all the others. But he's awake now, and what has he done? By all accounts it looks like exactly what he's done every other time/like he's falling back into the same bad habits. He let his mom steamroll him into getting him a couch that he didn't want. He threw himself back into work as soon as he could and keeps trying to brush off the fact that he went through a serious trauma (physical/mental/emotional) to the point that the people who love him have to keep reminding him that he literally died. He has the tools he needs to heal, but isn't actually taking the steps to get there. And, as you point out, they're potentially foreshadowing that there are still problems with his lungs that may still get worse.

Because Buck is, at heart, one big crush injury. He has been suffocating under the weight of trauma after trauma since he was born, conceived in grief and then discarded. He has been suffocating under the weight of hiding his true feelings from others (up to and including hiding them from himself) and leaving so many necessary things unsaid. But it also makes me think about Eddie and Home Invasion and the call at Marisol's and everything that I've been saying about insulation as protection but too much protection stifling you so much that you can't breathe. Buck being "the settler" in romantic relationships because he can't get hurt (at least not as badly) if he's not actually attached to the relationship, never going after/asking for what he really wants. Eddie being his own variation on "the fugitive" always running from the things that he's most afraid of. Both of them trying desperately to protect their hearts from getting broken and instead ending up in a place where they are both always dying...

Idk, there's something about Buck + Death and Eddie + Fear and Buck constantly suffocating vs. Eddie drowning, and Buck starting the season not wanting to make the same mistakes but also possibly "misunderstanding the assignment" with this death doula, and water finding its level...yeah...yeah...

i went to my first pulmonary rehab and i did more movement than ive done in a year and it felt good! very scary and nerve-wracking and i'm sore now, but i did it!!!!!!!

[r-ene]

day 22/366

had a 1-5PM sit in for final coaching for RTLE. very grateful to have profs that invites and permits us to sit in for board reviews (i sat in a pulmonary rehab class of the 3rd years once, hahah)

unfortunately, my academic grant didn't push through but again, grateful for the chance to be considered in such opportunities. i knew by now not to expect too much from anything 😅

went to my best friend's house to get something printed and hung out with my bestie, 🐶 who, as you can see, is very clingy with me, hahaha. he literally wanted to chew on my face with how excited he got and didn't leave my side until he got excited from another person entering the house + he allowed me to put his hair up !! don't have a pic, but ill share soon once i get one, haha

also thought id just share the agendas i have for the week :)

panel defense (research proposal) on saturday

ethics submission for research

5 days RTLE sit in (today was day 1/5)

readings on oxygen therapy protocols for next saturday's lecture

resume revision

tough times always but we should make it all into a lemonade so we don't wallow and get crazy from it all 🫡

[briarpatch-kids]

i'm really sorry if this isn't the type of thing u wanna answer and no worries if u delete this! i was just wondering if u have any advice for how to ask doctors to like.. refer you places and actually get u tests? for a bit i've been thinking i probably need pulmonary functioning testing done because of symptoms i get and i've been prompted by ur posts to Actually Get It Done but i don't have a specialist or anyone who would be easy to ask to refer me so i'll have to ask my gp (i've been diagnosed with severe ME, there's a couple things i wish i could get ruled out to feel fully comfortable with that [stuff like mito and seronegative myasthenia gravis] but again they need specialist referral and i haven't been able to see a specialist) and i'm not sure if i can just.. ask him to refer me for pulmonary function testing? or if i need to only tell him my symptoms and not ask specifically for pft. and i've had referrals get dismissed a lot because the healthcare system in the country i live in is really overwhelmed and i don't know when or how to push things especially because i don't know for sure what i have and when symptoms i get become dangerous. if u have any advice ur happy to share i would appreciate that but no worries if not! and i hope u have a good day!

So my pulmonary issues didn't get bad until after I got diagnosed, but basically what I told my doctor is that I was having a bunch of symptoms that I think might be related to my breathing and that I needed a referral to pulmonary for a function test to either figure out what was going on or rule out my lungs as the cause. The "or rule out" seems to help with doctors. Pulmonary function tests are pretty common and check for problems like asthma, too, so they should be used to making those referrals. If it's weakness, make sure they order the test to measure the strength of your breathing too, it's not part of the normal test because only people with severe weakness need to have that checked out. Asking for a sleep study is pretty standard too, because you're most likely going to start having problems at night before you do at daytime, and sleep apnea is common.

Also, this isn't related to lungs but getting a diagnosis. See if they can refer you to a physical medicine and rehab doctor. They're a "help get your life back after injury or illness" doctor and that's who ordered the muscle biopsy and diagnosed me with mito. They're the guy I refer to as the "weird stuff" doctor sometimes.

What types of specialized rehabilitation services do the Rehabilitation and Nursing Center in New York offer?

The foundation of the best nursing homes and rehabilitation facilities in New York is a dedication to a multidisciplinary, holistic approach to treatment. Teams of highly skilled medical experts, including doctors, nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, and social workers, work in these institutions to create individualized treatment regimens that are specific to the needs of each resident.

Facilities such as the Upper East Side Rehabilitation and Nursing Center in New York provide stroke rehabilitation programs that can be beneficial to residents who have suffered a stroke. These programs include speech, occupational, and physical therapy to assist patients with regaining their mobility, enhancing their communication abilities, and relearning daily life skills.

Personalized exercise regimens are designed by physical therapists (PTs) to enhance balance, strength, mobility, and coordination. For people healing from fractures, joint replacements, or strokes, this may be essential. Consider a patient at an RNC undergoing physical therapy following knee replacement surgery. In order to assist the patient walk independently once more, the PT would create a program that progressively increases weight-bearing activities and strengthens surrounding muscles.

The goal of occupational therapists (OTs) is to assist patients in regaining the ability to perform activities of daily living. This covers things like getting dressed, taking a shower, preparing meals, and taking medications. OTs can also assist people in modifying their living spaces to take into account their restrictions. Consider an RNC patient whose fine motor abilities are affected by a stroke.

At Highland care center, specialized nurses offer professional care for long-term wounds such as pressure sores or diabetic foot ulcers. Debridement (the removal of dead tissue) and specialist dressings may be necessary for this. In order to ensure that patients heal more quickly and with fewer complications, wound care management is essential for preventing infection and promoting recovery.
