Hey y'all I am still working on the goat in a dress but am delayed by a POTS flareup so I will not be working on it more until tomorrow I forgot asparagus is a diuretic. Again. lol
(for anyone reading this with no context for why that matters, I have both POTS and salt wasting syndrome and am on medication that is literally the opposite of a diuretic to help keep my blood pressure up. Eating a bunch of asparagus kind of temporarily undid that effect and I am very tired but fine, and I'll be back to normal in the morning)
#the person behind the yarn#food mention#I am okay I am just way tired#I took some salt pills and they are starting to kick in but oh boy that was not fun#I think asparagus is one of those things like salt that for most people it won't cause a noticeable affect to your blood pressure#like. most peoples' bodies are really good at maintaining homeostasis#mine is an outlier and should not have been counted#ESPECIALLY when it comes to electrolytes and water I am SO BAD at regulating those#I mean I say that like I have any control over it?? but also there's not really a better way to word that#I stay hydrated take my meds take salt pills as needed#but that does not stop the fact that my body is bad at salt and water lol

“oh if you have pots make sure you have extra salt” fun fact if you put too much salt in your drink your body will expel all the water. apparently salt water cleanses are a thing. i didn’t know that until today. and then you’ll be even more dehydrated. ask me how i found out.
#I AM NOT HAVING A GOOD TIME.#I put extra salt in my electrolytes!! because I’ve been having worse symptoms than normal. or just a worsening of symptoms but whatevs#and I was like ‘oh I’ll just add extra salt because i have a huge cup that holds a fuck ton of water so it’ll be fine’#and it was super salty but I’m not a quitter so i drank the whole thing#bad idea!!#pots

save do you have any tips for managing migraines
uhhhhhh lessee
personally i have prescriptions for it cause mine screwed my brain up but obvious ones like proper rest + maybe log what you eat and see if theres any correlation + general put nutrients in your body stuff which is actually kind of hard to keep track of
i have some REALLY WEIRD scent based triggers so i have to stay away from ammonia-like scents and eucalyptus cause those will put my ass out flat IMMEDIATELY, thats not an everyone thing but maybe note if theres sensory stuff around you that might be a trigger
for me warm toned lights and screen tints are way better than cool tones/white light and if youve got light colored eyes wear amber tinted sunglasses outdoors
water + salty snack > pedialite > gatorade and depending on caffeine sensitivity maybe moderate that cause it can either help or hurt, kinda depends on the person, but water and saltines will get you electrolytes and its cheap as fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck even if it doesnt taste as great as gatorade
sunlight on your skin and not in your eyeballs
also vitamin d just in general helps but its way better to actually use the sun for that than trying to digest it so like just 10ish minutes in the sun is what my neurologist recommended on top of taking 2000mg tablets
thats what ive got off the top of my head
#im not a neurologist but i dont get them as bad anymore at least#also if learning what you feel like beforehand so you can nip it before it starts helps a LOT#if you can take a painkiller before it starts itll do way more for you#but also dont undertreat it like dont stick it out thats what fucked me up hardcore just take the painkiller#i have to take at least 800mg of ibuprofen if i even sniff a migraine coming on but check with a doc before you do that#i also gotta pair it with sumatriptan and i can only do that 3 times a month Or Else#if ibuprofen doesnt knock it outta me its an er trip and they stuff an iv in me and pump my ass so full of drugs#oh also too much water can also cause migraines#best to stick with the 8 8oz a day thing and not go too far over#but yeah being proactive and preventative is better than coasting and treating them when they come#sometimes ill sip a little pickle juice causenits got magnesium and potassium on top of the sodium for electrolytes#i know food logs arent GREAT but they can help with stuff like this even just kinda checking in on if youre getting everything you need#i go sorta peasant with it like as long as ive had a couple greens in a week i should be good to go#snap peas or artichoke hearts or other really solid veggables#or#god bless#The Cucumber#cucumbers are the powerhouse of the vegatable

i actually feel as though i am going insane bc i need to do TOMORROWS commissions to get the last story key for kaeya’s story quest because i was an IDIOT and and DIDNT
and now i feel like i’m full of BEES
PLUS. IM GOING ON A TRIP.TOMORROW
so i’m waking up early and doing my commissions and then a story quest bc i’ll be damned if i have to wait three more fucking days to see my favorite traumatized blue haired man
#my sister saw me yesterday when his story quest came out#and i realized i didn’t have enough keys#and i was fucking FUMING#and she was like “(name) you need to calm down” and i was like#“oh im SO FUCKING CALM RN you don’t even KNOW” while grinding my teeth and doing my commissions#i’m actually so upset why tf did i just ASSUME i would have enough story keys#i’m inconsolable#if i get spoilers i’m gonna be putting Diluc In Snezhnaya as the first thing on my kin list (that doesn’t exist)#but at the same time. i want to know so bad#my sister and i were arriving back at home and i was telling her how ME of all people is gonna wake up early#and do my commissions and the quests#and she was like “yeah i was on the hoyolab website earlier and saw a screenshot that i thought you might like”#and i was like “hokyfuckisng SHIT did it. okay answer me one questions. did he talk about—“#“yes he said The D Word” and i literally said YIPPEE and jumped for joy#we were arriving home at the time and i fucking. skipped across our driveway#and i’ve been in a haze ever since#i feel like i’m. like my blood has been replaced by pure electrolytes. and like im#gonna explode if i don’t DO SOMETHING to occupy my time#was doing my commissions earlier and kaeya’s always on my team (ofc) but i heard one of his idle lines and i#went into such a fit of despair bc it reminded me of how i couldn’t do his story quest yet#DUE TO MY OWN DUMBASS CHOICES#that i. had to take him off my team for the day#AND THEN TWO KF MY COMMISSIONS WERE RIGHT BY DAWN WINERY#LIKE. GENSHIN JS REALKY FUCKING ME OVER HUH#why don’t they just spit in my face and stomp me into the ground i think it would feel better than THIS

i used to go to the gym before work instead of after bc once im home after work i dont wanna go anywhere, but then i canceled my membership and got a treadmill, and it took me the better part of a year to realize that now i can work out after work bc i dont have to go anywhere. now im turning into an at home gym rat its wild.
#i bought protein powder yesterday#well i was just gonna get electrolytes but then i remembered that one video#w the guy eating junk after his workout and his body is like what are we supposed to build the new muscles with#so i was like. maybe i will try protein also (it does have electrolytes)#pointless post#oh bonus my brother isnt home for hours after i am. in the morning im always worried my loud ass treadmill will wake him up lol

I got a free LMNT box??? free salt and electrolyte water supplement packets for nothing??? It’s a big box too wtf. it isn’t a mistake either I emailed them and they told me straight up it was a gift to everyone that’s bought the big box. holy fuck
#I bought the same size box for myself as a Christmas gift last December for like $100. I got one for free???#so I got another $100 priced box for FREE???#I don’t care what flavor is in there I’m drinking it all holy damn#this shit has been an enormous help for my disability so this is insane#only downside is that it takes a bit to figure out the salt level. and also they use stevia which I can taste and don’t care for much#but oh well I got a free damn box of it so it’s getting used!!!#maybe I’ll intersperse it with another type of electrolyte/salt water supplement so I don’t get sick of this one

Why are there always new symptoms showing up?? I just want a fucking break ;-;
#hello and on todays episode of wtf is wrong with resident hypochondriac opossum#i think maybe im extremely dehydrated and cant absorb fluids properly from drinking them (i think this for a variety of reasons)#and its starting to become very concerning and i think i need iv fluids like asap but i have no insurance#and also if i did theyd think i was crazy and not treat me condescend me and possible even admit me to inpatient msntal health#also having severe pain in my throat spreading to my skull that feels like someone jabbing me from the inside#which could be a sign of a compressed nerve so that fun /s#jesus christ im so tired i need a break i need this to stop#the pain alone is making me dizzy#and making me sweat which is dehydrating me more#ive tried everything i can think of and nothings working#i drink plenty ive cut out caffiene before i drink electrolyte drinks i make sure i eat enough salt etc etc#and its NEVER enough#oh yeah cant forget the compression socks and two different meds i tried to help me not pass put#guess what they didnt work either#and now im worried that my dehydration might be causing my hallucinations because they arent typical for psychosis#and maybe even my seizures which is really really bad#like i could go into a coma and die if i continue this way bad#but like that cant possibly be whats going on right? surely im just exaggerating because of anxiety#theres no way itd be that bad#my gf is basically a doctor and she would've done something by now if it was that bad#but hhh#why do i feel like this#why else do my hallucinations get worse whenever i sweat or exercise#why else do i have an extremely fast heart rate and fainting and im thirsty all the time but the second i drink i have to go pee already

don't you just love it when you laugh so hard that you lose all sensation in your body for a moment and your muscles stop holding you up and you are only saved from falling over helplessly by your stable sitting position? no? just me?
fun times
#byrd chirps#byrd's business#me getting 🤏this close to passing the fuck out: oh boy better tell the tumblrinas about this#it was worth it to laugh at the comment my roommate made. to be fair what they said was extremely funny and also i am tired#anyways methinks it's time for me to take an electrolyte capsule because clearly my pots is acting up

Took a zofran (which I don’t think I’ve ever taken before) cause I kept throwing up in my mouth (which was very unpleasant) but now I have anxiety cause I read about all the possible terrible side effects. So now I can’t sleep even though it’s 6:20 am and I haven’t gone to sleep yet and I’m very tired. My tummy hurts
#tw emetophobia#I guess#I know the terrible side effects are very unlikely to happen to me#but what if!#it said to inform my doctor if I have low electrolytes and I didn’t!#clinically I haven’t been tested for that but I have to take magnesium every night#for my restless legs#anyway#I’m so sleepy someone put me out of my misery#oh also my residual wisdom tooth sockets are healing in such a way#that every time I swallow a loose piece of tissue is sucktioned onto the back of my tongue#and it is a terrible feeling and not helping solve the puking issue
