currently the worst part my health rapidly declining is that I have barely any energy at all and the energy I do have is spent on booking drs appointments, arranging with specialists, organising all of my medical records and history to bring to new drs, submitting applications for disability support, getting blood drawn for genetic tests, etcetera. I don't have time to do anything except be sick, and I don't even know what I'm fucking sick with

It’s disability pride month, and if you are disabled in the U.S. from Long Covid I want you to know that you’re not alone, and you’re valid in whatever you feel. Whether that’s sorrow at your new problems or rage at society for failing you, you are valid, and it is truly messed up that society is continuing to fail you.

I know other adults like to joke about how much pain they're in, but genuinely, please try to get your pain checked out if you're an adult experiencing it, or at least adapt your life in whatever way lessens your pain.
Your pain deserves to be addressed. Please don't "let" it get worse because you've been told that to grow older is to suffer. No, you aren't being needy or selfish or annoying. Ultimately, you are the one who suffers the most from the state of your health, and it's entirely reasonable to want your health to be up to your standards.

There's something so devastating about becoming chronically ill in your teens because everyone around you is still young and healthy and can't relate to or sympathize with your situation, so you're essentially just left to learn that no matter what there will always be a part of yourself that alienates you from everyone else you know

I've had hip issues since I was born, hip dysplasia and perthes disease and interior hip anteversion (my femur's rotated inwards 50°, then my foot's rotated outwards about the same) and my femur on one leg is 4-5cm shorter than the other, developed arthritis at 15 and then recurrent bursitis. I was on the waitlist for surgery as a kid and it got scheduled and cancelled three times, then never ended up happening. Financial issues meant I couldn't get it privately, then when I moved to NSW I had to get on the waitlist over here and went straight back to the bottom of the list.
I got offered a cancellation spot three weeks from now. I know it's not going to fix everything wrong with it, it's the first of three surgeries I need, but once I have this first one the next two are guaranteed to be only months apart, and I'm so happy about it I'm trying not to cry on the train. My physio says these surgeries should fix about 95% of the pain I experience, which has gotten so bad over the last year that I regularly can't sleep without codeine, it wakes me up in the middle of the night, and sometimes I just can't sleep at all.
I'll be spending christmas alone in the hospital most likely, but I literally don't care!!! i'm so happy. i'm so relieved. this doesn't feel real. this feels life saving. god.

just had an appointment with my doctor post MRI about the next steps of dealing with endometriosis. there isn't much i can do surgically, and there's honestly too much risk with that, which is fine. there might be medication i can go on, but eh, who knows.
what i need to get my parents to realize is that I still have chronic health issues and I would benefit from a mobility aid. and that I'm not giving up by using a mobility aid.

I finally got Covid. I'm up to date on all my boosters, still mask wherever I go, and take every precaution I can (I even worked as a mortuary transfer assistant for the first two years of the pandemic without getting it) I feel like garbage and I'm so upset oh my god

Its always so hard to believe that not being in pain is just the casual state of being for most people, and not a rare event they experience every now and again

soooo turns out i have condylar resorption, a severe degenerative joint disease that causes gradual bone loss of the mandibular condyles (the bones that are part of the jaw joints, aka the TMJs). this has probably been going on i was a kid but went diagnosed all this time. my symptoms like functional issues, pain, etc. were repeatedly dismissed by doctors my whole life. the pain and dysfunction is increasing more and more by the day.
it's a progressive disease, and nothing can stop it or slow it down until the joints are completely eaten away. the only solution to prevent further bone loss and restore function is a total temporomandibular joint replacement, where the two diseased joints that literally hold my face together are removed and permanently replaced with metal prostheses. aka a major surgery with a 6-12 month recovery 😃
