I went to the Doctor's today and didn't cry. I think I deserve some candy and a sticker now.

does fourteen play videogames with the noble family
I feel like no one in the house is much more than a casual gamer, but Fourteen will occasionally pick a system out of That Box (you know, the cardboard one nearly every family has stashed in a closet or garage with all those out-of-date electronics) and fix it up. It started one day when he was bored and eyeballing the blender, and Donna found Rose’s old Nintendo DS in a drawer and told them there was a game on it where you could just play with cute dogs, if they could get it working. It keeps their hands busy, and it’s good fun for everyone when random old games get dusted off.
#what’s fourteen up to#fourteenth doctor#I’m sorry I know next to nothing about games and gaming systems#I feel like Shaun maybe plays that fifa game#and rose goes through phases for things like animal crossing#but they’ve never really been a huge gamer family bc they couldn’t necessarily afford it#so like they’ve got a handful of things like the old DS#but most were either used or gotten when they were already a bit out of date#does this concept make sense?#I’m trying to explain it on NyQuil#I feel like y’all know what I’m talking about#that box where your Nintendo Wii is#you know the one#it’s probably got your old pc disc games in it too#it’s where your copy of the OG simms or Zoo Tycoon is

Exhausted and blurry again. Feel like my brain has cataracts. Lymph nodes are painful and swollen and I have a fever so might just be regular person illness crashing against chronic fatigue. Need to order groceries since I can't go to the store. This feels a little bit scary actually have not had fatigue with "flulike symptoms" for awhile, or that lactic-acid-sour, petrified-wood-sensation thing where my muscles Won't Move when I tell them to because they're preemptively spent, as though I have already done intensive aerobic exercise. I can't lift my arms!
#I keep trying to explain the muscle exhaustion thing to PT and neurologist and regular doctor#It feels like the 'lactic acid burn' after exercise! When your muscles. Burn. From exertion#And you feel weak and wobbly and can't support your own weight anymore#But you haven't exercised at all#Your body just Does That#And it really does Burn it feels acidic#I know it's related to metabolic acidosis but I don't know how or why or how to stop it

hoping and praying that they do a med review for me this week and i can actually sleep for more than four hours again it's been two weeks i am actively perishing.
#i am trying so hard to still keep up with my classes while#also suffering#i went to the mental health crisis centre yesterday bc my dissociation which is pretty common had#turned into something very disorienting and a little concerning and they basically said#get your meds reviewed on thursday !#and after my last doctor told me you're on too many meds you should just do mental health exercises to sleep#when ive explained to them that since the end of 2023 i have needed meds to sleep#or ill just go days without sleep until i cannot function anymore#it's so hard not being able to sleep like a NORMAL person#but if im slow with writing or less enthusiastic with chatting it's just because my spoons have gone#i have negative a million spoons#so im just quietly playing twst or watching docs#TRYING to not fall behind to the point of no return in my classes#ooc.#its hard man i really do empathize with people who have insomnia it impacts your life so much#i hope my mutuals are doing well hang in there <3

doctor confirmed that 👉 this guy 👈 got pcos and i just got an implant to at the very least get my whacky periods under control and hopefully get them to stop entirely
#i also have thought about how i was cared for today#i go to a free place that has rotating doctors so i didnt see the same one that told me to get a ultrasound of my ovaries + blood test#previous one was a cis woman and she insisted me having multiple cysts on my ovary (that was double in size to the other one) wasnt enough#(for a pcos diagnosis) so she insisted i redo my blood test on the 2nd day of my period#which i didnt realise at the time is dumb as hell cause my periods are so chaotic im not even sure when they start and when they stop#the doc i saw today was a trans doctor (using iel in french! love to see it) and after i explained my situation was like#well theres no point to check your hormones here since we dont have a point of reference#and your ultrasound shows you have multiple cysts in your ovary so thats pcos#then explained to me what that does to your body & all that its not dangerous per say but its good to monitor and take hormones to help#and i said i was already considering the implant to stop my periods and they said that can be arranged today#told me the other alternatives and the risks associated with the implant but tbh my choice was already made#i mean of course idk how much cisness and transness has anything to do with this#but i had seen another cis doctor about my periods being whack when they started being whack#and he did an ultrasound saw nothing and was like “well nothing wrong with you” and that was the end of it#i definitely felt more comfortable and better cared for in the hands of a peer#(also i had to try three pharmacy to get the implant cause the other ones were out of it#walked way more today than planned but good day regardless!)

Update on ability to write! My arm is still fucked, doctor and surgeon confirm it's fucked, but it's probably fixable so I'm getting surgery in the next few weeks (still have to schedule). It should be a 4-6 week recovery so won't be able to really write until the end so at least 2 more months but! Getting there!
#the first doctor was soooo funny trying to delicately explain my arm was fucked#tryinf to be like this is the sort of thing we might call severe#second doctor was just straight up like yeah your arm is bad like really bad likr not the worst it COULD be but bad#both agree on surgery so woo#lifes life

i should not have asked my mum for a lift to my hospital appointment today bc she used it as another opportunity to blame my antidepressants for making me so tired all the time
#like idk man maybe they do. but they also improve my mental health a hell of a lot so i'll just take the tiredness L#she was saying that i should ask the doctor if i can switch to a different brand of antidepressants#so at least she's no longer saying that i shouldn't be taking them at all. progress#i tried to explain to her yet again that i just struggle with full-time work in general and that it's probably bc of my autism#but she was like 'maybe you should get a new job; if you really liked your job then you wouldn't feel this way!'#if it's still a 40 hour work week then i'm still gonna feel the same way#at least at my current job i can wfh two days a week. so many job listings now say that you have to work entirely in the office#she's probably just trying to help. but also i did not ask

the way tumblr talks about medicine makes me wonder how many of us here actually have critical thinking skills
#stop trying to explain shit you know nothing about so you can frame it negatively for clout!!!! literally knock it off!!!#there are so many valid opinions but i don’t understand this and therefore it’s bad “ is NOT one of them actually#fuck it’s far from perfect but seeing people talk about people I work with every day as if they’re monsters is honestly so tiring#it’s just all over my dash#if you read something and it confuses you and that makes you angry#the solution is NOT to make a tumblr post flaming it with all of your misinformation and undereducated opinions#“it is batshit to base dx criteria on statistics “ NO IT IS NOT NO IT IS NOT NO IT IS NOT ARE YOU STUPID???????#THIS IS STEM LITERALLY EVERYTHING IS MATH WHAT THE HELL DO YOU M E A N ?????#literally like!!! 90% of dx criteria involves statistical probability!!!! doctors prescribe statins because you are statistically likely#to develop heart disease or endure a major cardiac event#like they calculate your disease risk based on averages and so so so much data and math and shit THAT YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT!!!!#so why are you complaining about it as if you do!!!!!!!!#sorry. I know it’s in good faith for the most part but. it feels like straight entitlement to constantly complain and dog on doctors#I’m a victim of medical malpractice!!! i still show respect and understand that they’re individuals. people. human beings.#who are largely trying to help others#regardless of my personal experience with others in their field#sorry this is just a vent now#i love research I love science I love medicine please stop hating on every aspect of it and my community ty#delete later#not fandom#stinky speaks

LKJFDLSDKFJLSDK trying to explain to a doctor what my prescription issue is when i have no understanding of how prescriptions are formulated went. um. well everything was okay by the end (thumbs up emoji). and my doc definitely didn't assume i was doing something shady with my testosterone for the first 5 minutes of that call when i fumbled explaining what the issue was.
#'hi i have 10 small vials of testosterone but i would like 1 big vial of testosterone.'#<- this is what a guy who is capable of expressing himself clearly would say#what /i/ did was try to explain my issue using the 200mg/ml verbiage that i saw on my prescription#which i have now learned is different than talking about vial size. so.#whatever.#basically i just had a doctor visit that amounted to 'talk to your pharmacist about it because your prescription is correct'#head in hands

Me: telling my coworker I have a full-on internal fungus making me sick
Him: JAY, THINK. WWJD.
Me: what would Jesus do?
Him: no, you need to accept Joel Miller into your heart we're WAY past Jesus.
Me:
#im taking the recent doctors trip very well#i did not have full on fungus in my body cause im a fun guy on my 2023 bingo card#im not touching spaghetti until this is cleared out#if you know you know#its crazy cause my doc has seen a huge uptick in people being infected#global climate change and peoples immune systems being shot from covid#are the main reasons why its popping up according to her and colleagues#this explains so much weird shit happening to me cognitively#that's not fibro related#if your brain fog is above normal you got random shakes random rashes and cravings for bizzare shit#you might have a fun guy partying up in your system#get tested#in 2004 i had a parasitic worm in me when re4 came out#and in 2023 when tlou is surging again i got a fungus trying to eat me body out#either god is trying to nerf me or my body REALLY wants to be patient zero#for some horrible video game inspired plague

The Master Clings To Life Obsessively.
The Master also doesn't seem to quite like their life- Ever, really. Even whenever they get what they want.
Both of these are kind of unbreakable cycles but. The one does break the other. And I for one am obsessed with a master bored and annoyed enough by this perpetual existence of schemes and conquest and Dying, over and over, failing and Dying- to start seeking things Better than this life.
#my thoschei OCs literally run into each other when missy is trying to. launch himself into the web of time like a guided missile#and unwrite ever Becoming a renegade. and the doctor points out theres a 80% chance his contraption is gonna just kill him#(and quite a bit of the surrounding area) and hes like do i LOOK like i give a fuck. and shes like. what. WHAT.#ok wait. you do NOT have to kill yourself. actually youre not allowed im Not Allowing it.#so yeah. u have 18- neurotic and depressive and self-denying- whos been hiding from soft nice things because she feels unworthy-#and The Entity Formerly Known As The Master/Mistress- still missy now but its Just A Name. short for mistress of his own destiny-#who is trusting her to explain why her way makes life worth living. and yeah is inclined to automatically reject certain answers-#sentimental drivel is not any more his style now than it was before- but. he IS kind of seeing certain value#in Purpose Is Joy rather than scheme-intensive goal oriented thinking. for once. missy2voice HEDONISM SWEEP#the doctor does at a certain point straight up go yeah i also think about wanting to die sometimes but then you think to yourself. well.#am i really alright with the idea of never watching a sunset again? never having a warm drink with an old friend? nev- and hes like.#WHAT DO YOU THINK IVE BEEN- what are you TALKING about. when do you think i- and shes like well theres your problem. you need to touch gras#18 (visibly mentally unstable and terrible at taking proper physical care of herself): aha. you see. zen can cure you#missy2: youre insane. say more#he wants to study her like poking a bug w a stick and found out he can just live in her jar now if he lowers his fatality rate
