y'all are so cool. my profession-named injury was just Boxer's Fracture (but i AM glad it's not a worse injury, obv). unrelated but still weird, i had scar that is now (at 21) covered in acne marks, but from age 3-20 i had a scar on my cheek from being bitten by a classmate

You know you've fucked up when you go to a doctor and the thing you have wrong with you has been named after an occupation that isn't a thing anymore. Like imagine a doctor looking at you and going "yeah you've got ox-drawn ploughman's disease. We don't even test for that anymore. Yeah the reason you've never heard of it is because the last known case was in 1927 and happened to some guy who was like 98 years old and didn't believe in modern medicine of the time. What the fuck have you been up to."

As someone with a food allergy AND food sensitivities, it's been hell. Milk causes a rash, GI bleeding (which can make me lightheaded or even collapse), and bad GI inflammation and nausea to the point I can't hold down food for days or even WEEKS after exposure and even trace can make my life hell for a few days (thank you benadryl). Fresh garlic and cilantro causes anaphylaxis. I have a sensitivity to gluten which causes nausea, GI issues, and triggers migraines from all the inflammation (wild right?). To add insult to injury, I'm oat intolerant so a lot of substitute foods come at the cost of running to the bathroom.

I'm disabled and have left side weakness, so doing things like cooking for myself is hard, much less from scratch. Milk is in so many things it's ridiculous and eating out was near impossible BEFORE I had to give up gluten. I have to buy the expensive versions of stuff just so I won't experience violent nausea and pain just because I wanted to eat, but SNAP (food program) doesn't give extra benefits to cover the higher grocery cost. Sometimes I literally have to decide between skipping meals and finding something to eat that will put me through the least amount of hell. Accepting things like a homemade meal is always a risk because of just how hard it is to not miss something even when they try (sometimes I eat it anyway knowing the risks because I'm so touched when someone tries). Even safe foods and brands can change overnight and a food that used to be safe is suddenly not, but I don't know to check the ingredients because I've got it before. Grocery shopping is exhausting, frustrating, long, and filled with disappointment after disappointment because all the label reading and having to put stuff back. It makes me not have a great relationship with food and doctors often won't listen when I say I literally CAN'T eat better.

It's not just food. I've had things like soap give me a really bad rash and make me so itchy that I feel like something is crawling on me for days! I've had reactions from paint.

Prescriptions are the biggest pain outside of food I think. A lot of them have enough milk (usually just trace) to trigger a reaction in people like me. Most pharmacies in the US wont flag it because it's an inactive ingredient, so it's up to me even when I'm sick. Sometimes I have to fight my insurance for a name brand drug because generic has milk (even then the pharmacy will fill the generic half the time and I have to go in and get it fixed like with levoxyl). My insurance tried to stop covering my asthma medication because they wanted me to get on a dry powder one (lactose with milk proteins). I have to take the liquid version of a med for my anxiety, which has to be refrigerated so I just have to deal if an anxiety spike happens while I'm out of the house.

I've had people tell me to just take a lactose pill (I have a non-IgE allergy to the protein not an intolerance to the sugar!). Sometimes people accuse me of being on a fad diet when I want gluten free. I often have to put my epipen on the counter or give graphic depictions of my reactions for places to ACTUALLY be careful with my food because they often won't if I just say I have an allergy (even having a couple places put one in anyway because they thought I was lying instead of just an honest mistake). Asking food places and bakeries and whatever about their food often just gets me a shrug. I've been sent to the ER more than once. I have to pack food for when I need to go somewhere overnight. Complementary breakfasts are usually pointless for me. It's taken me years to find a nutrition drink that's not disgusting for when I'm bedridden (Kate Farms). Sometimes I eat really dumb junk food because that's the only option. Sometimes I HAVE to take a med short term that has milk because no alternative exists, which means a bland diet with benadryl for a while and some frustrating symptoms (I don't always notice until I've taken a couple doses either). There's been treatment facilities I couldn't go to and trips I couldn't go on because I "couldn't be accommodated." Hospitals that sent me home earlier because they couldn't feed me or the kitchen already messed up once. My bio family was cruel to me. Sometimes depression gets hard to work through when literally THE WORLD IS BUILT TO NOT LET YOU EAT.

Tldr: People with food allergies go through hell, so contacting companies to complain, looking into options, or just buying versions that are safe for us to increase demand can be a big help. For example, vegans literally help me have food options!

Not to make a serious post too much but remember how angry everyone rightly was about bread companies adding sesame because it's cheaper to poison people than clean your machinery?

Yeah well it's happening in other foods. I already posted about Kellogg's doing it to cereal bars and Austin Snack Crackers but now it's in greens CVS granola bars and Jenny Fucking Craig cheesecake which btw record level they added EVERY allergen to that shit.

ֹ ₊ Content ⋮ The reader is sick in bed, and your boyfriend, Sunghoon, enters the room and takes care of you

ֹ ₊ Tags ⋮ Sickfic₊Comfort₊Fluff₊Angst₊Boyfriend₊ Tender care₊ Guilty feelings₊ Appreciative₊ Comforting embrace

ֹ ₊ Natty’s note ⋮ nothing really! Just made this for my sunghoon girlies <33

As you lay down in your bed, shivering and coughing, you heard the familiar steps of your boyfriend, Sunghoon, who had just entered the room. He walked over to where you’ve been lying in bed, his expression was a mix of worry and tenderness. He gently placed the cool cloth on your forehead, his touch was gentle and caring. “My love, how are you feeling?” he said softly. You tried to speak, but your throat was so sore that all you could manage was a weak croak.

Sunghoon’s brows had furrowed abit as he took in your poor pale skin and sweaty face. his heart sank... He sat down on the edge of the bed and grabs your hand holding it in his. His grip was warm and reassuring. “You need to rest and let your body heal, baby,” he says with a small smile. You then nodded weakly, you were feeling a mixture of gratitude and frustration. You hated being too dependent on him, but at the same time, his presence was the only thing that was keeping you from feeling completely miserable at this time.

He continued to take extremely good care of you, bringing you water and helping you out by offering to give you your medicine, you just can’t help but feel guilty. You’ve always hated being such a burden to him. You know he’s worried about you, and you know that he has his own responsibilities to worry about and take care of. But still, he stays right by your side, making sure that you have anything you need to get better.

And so as you drift off into your slumber, wrapped protectively into a comforting embrace, you can’t help but appreciate him so much. You wondered just how lucky you are to have him.

He's really sick.

Your small donation makes a big difference 🌱🌳

Your small donation can help an entire family to survive.

I thought elders could use some randomness in their final fate. Made 3 semi-random events for them:

live longer

die early

get sick

Early death branches into:

sudden "heart attack" followed by - death by fright, or - death by drowning if they happened to be swimming at the time

decreased age duration followed by death of old age the next day or so

At first, it was going to be sort of a coin flip once a day deciding whether a playable elder dies prematurely, or gets an additional day of life, or keeps living for the allotted time. Turned out a little more detailed and configurable

Sickness is not as impactful, just something to highlight old age problems. It's a maxis style disease curable by soup and rest (thinking of realistic medical conditions made me sad and I stopped)

B has been feeling a little weird all day. A little shivery, a little tired, a little achey, starting to get sniffly, but overall okay. They don’t feel sick per se, just a little off.

Cut to B having a little movie night with their partner A, who is cradling B’s head in their lap. A is carding softly through their hair as they feel B’s breathing start to grow deeper and slower. They smile and move their fingers down towards B’s eyes, only to brush their forehead and stop. Is it just them, or is B feeling a little warm? They move their hand to B’s cheek, their other cupping the nape of their neck.

“You feeling okay? You feel really warm,” A asked, feeling B roll a little bit in their lap.

B mumbled something before burying their hot face deeper into the blankets and sniffling liquidly.

“Aw honey, let me get you some Tylenol so you can get some rest.”

God, I love sickfics that cut between a Whumpee’s current illness, and illnesses they’ve had in the past. Before, being sick was traumatic and lonely. Maybe they were neglected or even ostracized for their illness. In the present day, they don’t know how to handle being loved.
