This is what chronic illness looks like. I’m not always in a mask, in fact most of the time my illness is invisible to others. However, this doesn’t mean it’s not real. I take over a dozen meds a day, get a chemo IV every 4 weeks, go to massage therapy, physical therapy, rheumatologists, neurologists, chiropractors, and acupuncturists. Being chronically ill can be a full time job. Always be kind to others, they may be fighting a battle you know nothing about. #rheumatoidarthritis #rheumatoiddisease #chronicillness #chronicpain #chronicfatigue #fibromyalgia #sjogrenssyndrome #spoonie #neuropathy #chronicmigraine #meds #rasupergirl

So I finally had my second foot surgery this past Monday. I’d kept pushing it back but definitely made the whole situation worse with hiking, door knocking, and teaching. My RA finally got the best of my foot, long story short I’m one step closer to being a cyborg. Casual reminder: while you can’t control your illness, you can control how you respond to it. #surgery #surgeryrecovery #rheumatoidarthritis #rasupergirl #rheumatoiddisease #footoperation #spoonie (at McBride Orthopedic Hospital) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoiDYtxBJHvwXTEFTsQeB0TK-pPuRwp9BoSBYc0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=a0ikj706zesk
