Started on a new anti-migraine drug today (ajovy). Also have had terrible sleep - Especially today, but, like, all year. Also, y'know the migraines.
So not 100% sure if certain things are side-effects of the ajovy or just y'know, my body being upset with many things going on in its life - But more to the point: Should I be concerned with anything that I'm seeing/experiencing?.
Trying to google side-effects is sure a fucking trip, though.
Official company line on their site seems to be "Some swelling/irritation near injection site" is likely the only side-effect confirmed to definitely be from this medicine. Anything else? Well, that must be someone else's problem.
Various reddit posts of peoples' experiences with the medication - Mostly neutral-to-mildly positive. A lot of not-outright-negativity, but disappointment or frustration about the tradeoffs vs benefits. But the side-effects definitely vary wildly in type and intensity. The ones I'm curious about are topics of discussion that have come up with some degree of frequency.
Various interaction/drug rundown sites have much more comprehensive lists, but also include a warning that the ones I'm looking into may be serious/concerning and I should consult my doctor about them right away. Which, like, doesn't seem to be the tone regarding them anywhere else. So, more confusion as-to who's out of step here.
Meanwhile, the pamphlet that came in its box actually does have a more comprehensive list of possible side-effects. Doesn't list severity other than obvious "If experiencing anaphylaxis..." or other obvious emergencies/serious stuff, then go to ER/phone doctor immediately. Everything else listed is just sort of "This could happen" without any level of how concerned you should be.
The ones I've noticed are heartburn (Unusual for me without certain types and timings of trigger-foods, but not impossible to be something else going on that's unrelated to this). And notable joint-stiffness (hands and feet, especially on the same side as my injection), with a touch of joint pain. Both of those are in the "might happen in ~1% of patients" group. Which, hey, alright. That's fine. They're known to have a connection, echoing what the reddit posts were saying. From the tone in the pamphlet and on reddit, I probably don't need to be concerned unless they worsen or persist for a very long time.
Uncommon doesn't necessarily mean alarming, though I am curious as to if there's any correlation in the group of people that experience them. Any factor that might predict it, or explain why they're causing this reaction, y'know?
Okay. Good. No need to panic. Probably should sleep though. Less than 4 hours in the last 48 can't be good for me.
#rambling#migraine treatment#why is finding straightforward information on treatments and side-effects so tricky?#I guess this type of medication is relatively new as far as medicine classes go#but like they had to have been researching it for years by now#I wonder if the lack of clarity in official materials about side-effects reported as somewhat more common can be chalked up to trials#and how they - By design - Try to minimize complicating factors#so if patients are selected#rather than just blind trials#they probably don't have a ton of co-morbid conditions going on that could complicate trials#and render results ambiguous

So I'm absolutely adoring your into the ballpit au and while I'm side eyeing how literally everyone is so easy at taking what's happening the biggest thing that's bothering me is when Henry was talking to Mikebear, he said, "I know you're having trouble speaking," like it's a normal thing that Mike suddenly can't speak properly? Does Mike have moments of select mutism in this verse? Either way loving this comic and can't wait for the next part.
Hiii !! Yes!!! ;v; I actually didn’t think that Henry would assume he was having trouble talking because of that, it was because of the shock but I love the idea so I’m keeping it >>)b
As for everyone dismissing things easily :’v I get that, I’ve been trying to not make it too fast paced but then it takes so much longer to get to the fun parts of the story :’> if it’s about Henry though? he doesn’t want to push the kids to say too much since he can see they aren’t doing too well and he knows not to pressure them to get answers, he’s just being patient ^^
Aaaa and thank you TTwTT💖💖💖 glad you’re enjoying the story so far 👌
#pix answers#fnaf#Mike has selective mutism now#🎉✨#gotta make them relatable 😔👌#augh#anyway 😔🫶 I want Mike to know how to deal with this and help himself and CC too#in healthy ways#and to be fair 😭 yall kept wondering why Gregory didn’t realize he was in the past or why Freddy hadn’t said anything yet#TTwTT it’s hard to explain that or believe it if it happens to you#so the best way I could think of doing it was him first accepting he was in the past#and then Michael being Freddy would be more believable#because how else would he know about the future#hehwdhdjf gotta plan everything like this#time travel is so hard to write#thank u for being patient thoooo

ngl I did not expect to be handed a consent form like 30 seconds into actually being seen but it went so smoothly my appointment lasted less than like 10 minutes so I'll take it
#I also need to get my pcp to send the hospital my blood test results since they need one but I JUST got a blood draw last week so#also the hospital's scheduling system was down so I gotta call in to confirm and all that#try as the lady trying to put me down for the select opening might that shit was not working#vena vents#not art#Granted I came in discussing more medical concerns for removal and how I've always wanted this so I think it helps#vs people who come in with no prior info or patient history panicking

andre understands on a level no one else does heart
#qtalks#smartsfail#one of the main reasons we connect is be of our similar upbringings#i've always had trouble expressing myself and talking abt my life esp after every time i have it's gone wrong#but andre.. it's so nice having someone who Gets it. i talk abt it all the time but man#it's hard for me to talk out loud and express my thoughts so i've been practicing with him lol#he's patient with me and forces me to actually Talk instead of giving up when i stumble my words and get frustrated#very helpful 🫶 helps me actually get out my truama that i've been bottling up my whole life LOL#i used to be selectively mute as a kid and i grew up in asian immigrant family so while i'm fluent in eng and rlly good at like writing essa#my casual english sometimes fumbles </3 esp outloud bc i'm used to hearing my dads broken eng#(and also my thoughts are just fast and vague in my head)#it's not like i have a big accent or anything but if you talk to me outloud long enough you'll probably hear me slur some words or something

Some soft beautiful and cute moments for thenamesh Doctor au? They deserve a little break ❤️
"How is she?"
Ajak turns with a smile at the head just barely poking into the room. She waves him in, and Gil shuffles in quietly, his hands pushed deep into his hoodie pockets. "She's okay, Gil. She's coming down from the anaesthetics, her vitals all look good. Aside from some physio and some time off, she'll be just fine."
Gil chuckles, walking around to the other side of the bed with Thena sleeping soundly. "She'll be furious she has to take time off. If she comes in for physio she'll probably just slip away and try to work."
Ajak shrugs, giving him a grin, "I'm sure you wouldn't let her anyway."
"You're right."
Ajak averts her gaze as Gilgamesh reaches out to push some of Thena's hair away from her face. Maybe he's forgotten they aren't alone, or maybe he just doesn't care who sees him do it. "You know you can't take two weeks off too, right? I know you want to, but if Thena isn't here, then I'll need you more than ever."
Gil nods solemnly, his hand almost back in his pocket when he suddenly decides the place for it is around Thena's hand. "She wouldn't let me take the time off either, I'm sure. I can check on her between my shifts."
Ajak just shakes her head. It's not as if she would be able to do anything to stop him from doing so. "Just remember to get your proper rest, too."
"Yes, Ma'am," Gil offers a tired smile before looking down at Thena again. He reaches up to her hair again, but this time he trails a finger over her cheekbone, then down her jaw. "Oh, Thena."
Ajak is about to leave the two lovebirds alone when Thena shifts. "Thena?"
"Honey?" he whispers, leaning to get a look at her eyes. They're still hazy, but she blinks at him. "Hey, Sweetie, how are you feeling?"
"Hey."
Ajak's eyes sneak over to the heart monitor displaying her heart rate, blood oxygen and blood pressure readings. The heart rate has picked up speed a little, not that either of them have taken notice.
"Morning, Sunshine," Gil chuckles, visibly relieved at the sound of Thena's voice. He leans over her, liberally planting a kiss on her cheek. "How're you feeling?"
Ajak observes a funny little skipped beat, but it seems to be a momentary effect.
"I'm okay," Thena whispers to him, her eyes still struggling to open all the way. She makes the faintest attempt at pulling herself up.
"Hey, easy," Gil rushes to hold her. He wraps his arm around her shoulders, helping her up to her desired angle and bringing a cup of ice chips up to her lips.
Ajak adjusts the bed so Thena can lie down/sit up comfortably. Not that they notice that either.
Gil takes the cup from her as she swallows down the much needed water. "Better?"
She nods, her thumb moving against his absently as she tries to absorb her surroundings. She - finally! - looks over at Ajak. "What happened?"
Ajak smiles at her, pulling her blankets up again. "We got you right into surgery, got some blood in you. You're lucky it wasn't more serious."
Thena sighs, lying heavier against her pillow. "How long?"
"Two weeks, minimum," Ajak says firmly, and watches Thena make a face like a teenager being forced into a family reunion. "And that's if things heal quickly and your physio goes well."
Thena rolls her eyes at it, although she gets jabbed in her good leg with Ajak's pen for it. "Hey!"
"Don't roll you eyes at me, little lady," Ajak smirks at her, happy at least to see Thena regain some of her usual fire as she glares back at her. "I'm going to tell them that you're up. You two, wait here."
"I'll do my best," Thena grumbles, further ensuring her recovery. She smiles at Ajak on her way out before looking at Gil again. "Are you okay?"
"Me?" he asks, and then openly scoffs. "You were stuck under a car, Thena--for hours!"
"It wasn't hours."
"Well, no one would tell me how long it was!" he protested, "so I had to imagine the worst!"
Thena just sighs. She has a clear memory of him lying down with her, holding her hand and whispering sweet comforts to her as the rain and wind and her own impending death loomed over her. "Thank you."
Gil leans over her again, pressing his forehead to hers, as he had done in the moment under the car. "I wouldn't have let anything happen to you, Thena. I swear."
"I know you wouldn't," she whispers back. Her eyes flutter open again while Gil's are still closed. He's so close he's blurry, but she can make out the pinkness of his lips.
Gil pulls back, smoothing over her hair again. "Hey, what were you going to say?"
"Hm?"
"Just at the end," he frowns, twirling a long of blonde around his finger. "You started saying 'Gil if-' but I wouldn't let you finish."
"Oh."
That heart monitor is beeping faster again.
"I didn't want you to say anything because there was no if, then," he shrugs, more able to talk about it now that the immediate danger has faded a little. He tilts his head at her, "so, what was it?"
Thena's eyes dart around a little, listening to that damned heart monitor blaring her guilt. Not that it was as loud as media made them seem, but it wasn't as silent as she would like.
"I don't think I remember."
Gil tilts his head at her and her sudden unwillingness to look at him. He leans over until she has no choice but to see him (being stuck in a bed, and all). "Hey, wait."
Thena's fluster only worsens as his palm presses against her forehead. She squeezes her eyes shut, "Gil, it..."
"You look a little flushed," he frowns at her, and just now looks up at her monitor readings. "BPs kind of high too--you might be fighting an early infection. I'll get Ajak."
Gil takes off before Thena can really stop him and tell him not to. And at least it gives her a chance to try and get her traitorous heart to calm down a bit.
#Thenamesh Doctor AU#poor Thena#do you have any idea#how long I've been trying to use the heart monitor tells the truth trope?#well it's basically since this AU took off#medical aus are just so rife with stuff like this#heart monitor tropes#the truth teller on drugs trope#sleeping next to patient trope#all of 'em!#Give me all of them!!!#Gil absolutely insists on helping her get to and from her physio appointments#on the odd occasion he's on shift when they happen he asks someone else to cover him#or he'll let a very select one or two people do it in his place#like Druig from Psych or Sersi from GP#Ikaris literally offers to drive her once and Gil is like no I'll do it#and then shows up 45 minutes late for his shift and gets in so much trouble for it

[ i'm going to head to bed, but a little heads up that since new year is approaching, i will be doing a followers clean up before the year ends. i've realized that my motivation to be here had fluctuated due to stress and many other factors, so i'd like to be more selective with who i follow now. it's nothing personal, ofc ! i just get really overwhelmed and pressured quite easily as of late.
the threads clean up will come after that, but i'll prioritize the followers clean up first. i'll do it bit by bit from now to new year. thank you for understanding & i hope you guys have a great day / night ! ]
#.ooc#[ i was thinking of doing the whole ' like this if you wish to remain mutual ' post#but decided against it bc i feel like i should be the one doing the sorting / cleaning up & not let my followers do it for me#i want to be much more selective too when it comes to followers just so i can feel comfortable around here again#so thank you everyone for understanding & for always being patient with me ]

the things I will do for theorycrafting
#I'm not patient enough to wait for full scripts that I can just Ctrl+F to find specific words/phrases so uh#selectively rewatching parts of a game I've already played bc I played it so fast that I can't actually remember exact details it is#I feel like that pic of the dude with the corkboard but until we get more Octo2 lore info this's all I have#what if [redacted] pulled a Hatoful has got to be one of the most unhinged theories I've ever come up with but like#IT MIGHT FIT#I hate it but at the same time the game dev's are either Very Smart and giving us hints#or I'm just drawing baseless connections bc I wanna see them#I might actually write up and post the theories...maybe...they're def. kinda unhinged at parts though#also I keep trying to figure something out but none of the pieces are actually fitting and I'm like okay#is this a writer oversight or am I just missing something#oracle of lore

It bothers me when folks insist that there are literally no good reasons to surrender pets because it destroys their hearts. Like…. My dude…. That evil fuckin cat that slashed my literal eyeball should be surrendered. I found new homes for my three cats because I couldn’t take having multiple panic attacks triggered every single fucking day because they’ve got claws and I’ve got a new dose of fresh PTSD caused by that demon slashing my eye. I still can’t sleep well because of the nightmares about it. The pain and the blood and the temp blindness in that eye and the extreme fear. It’s been months. My life was fucking destroyed and my love of cats ripped from my soul. But I’m the villain? No. Needs drastically change sometimes and it sucks for everyone involved. It wasn’t good for me having cats around. It wasn’t good for my cats to have their only human destabilized and constantly rejecting their affection. They’ve got a new home where all three miraculously got to stay together and are dearly loved again as they deserve to be.
#this is goggles#he didn’t want to surrender her because nobody will adopt a black cat with hardcore behavioral issues that put someone in the ER#and she would likely be put down#yanno the way humans have been dealing with and selectively breeding their domestic animals for literal millennia#but he’s an asshole with behavioral issues himself and doesn’t give a flying fuck about others#lmfao one of his friends told me they think he should honestly be institutionalized for his myriad of out of control behavioral issues#he needs a parent more than a partner but he still continues to date and expect those he dates to baby him#but then is upset when people don’t want to deal with him because he acts like a literal spoiled child#his friends are growing fed up with his shit after seeing how he treated me and that’s so fucking funny to me#good honestly I hope he drives off everyone around him and is left with just himself#in his nasty piss and shit filled dirty laundry nest he calls a home#he reminds me so much of a guy I used to play D&D with who did the exact same shit and was mooching off his dad well into his 60s#and would throw pissbaby fits whenever he wasn’t the center of attention or if anyone told him off for acting like a child#still complains about how awful his two years of marriage 30 years prior were because his ex-wife would constantly nag him to clean up#I was so patient with my ex because I saw a lot of the ways my own behavior was influenced by AuDHD and fucked up and I actually fixed them#I fixed those flaws and now I live in a BH&G levels of clean home I’m on track for a good career#my life transformed while I was with him but his did not and now that I ain’t dealing with him the boons of my work are clear as day#and he’s mad he’s in his parents basement working his $12/hr weed job and getting nagged for being irresponsible and filthy#lmfao moron
