Chronic illness is being told it’s not that bad when it is. #autoimmune #diseases
Against a bright coloured swirly background, black text reads: So often, enthusiasm is thwarted by how unwell I am. Ideas and desires are unattainable. But then I count up all the ways I have achieved, overcome and thrived - even in the depths of severe chronic illness - and I know I am living as well as I can. I am living a creative life. @craftingapaththroughillness
How do you live as well as you can amidst all that chronic illness brings with it?

In August, I was scared to travel alone for the first time since my #MS got worse. I did it, it was fine. In two days, I face a new test: traveling alone in order to be a caregiver for over a week. Oh the #anxiety. But I did that. I can do this, too.

My Recovery Time for Simultaneous Bilateral Patellar Tendon Rupture — What happens when you have Lupus, and are on long-term steroid therapy.
"To me, it was just part of a regular #Lupus or #Sjogrens #PainFlare. That is a huge problem with chronic, #autoimmune disorders..You often get so used to living with pain that you sometimes don’t notice when a pain is ‘not normal’ anymore.": buff.ly/Tpp5EEN

You're in the ring with APS, but remember, you've got a whole crew backing you up! Keep those questions coming—knowledge is your secret weapon! Each step you take is pure power. Stay fierce & unstoppable! #antiphospholipid #miscarriage #autoimmune #thrombosis #heartattack #stroke #DVT #PE #TIA #aps
"Rheuminococcus gnavus #bacteria may be associated with #lupus and #LupusNephritis. Treating R. gnavus could limit the need for #biologic or DMARD therapy in some patients with lupus.": buff.ly/3i05kAX

'The more useful question isn’t “why can’t I stick to a system?” It’s “why are the available systems so poorly suited to how I actually live?”'
Well worth reading for us #spoonies.

Auto immune pressure blisters spreading across my hand…. because I made the mistake of typing too hard…. several days ago.

Just one of the fun things I get to live with, my whole body can do this.
Hooray? 😳🥺😒
Shoutout to everyone else who also experiences daily pain for apparently no fucking reason other than that their body hates them #autoimmune #chronicpain
25 years of doing this today... 7-10 times a day!!
Also levemir is discontinued at the end of this year 😱 so another albeit dreadful reason to pack the bag from this disease. #t1d #diabetes #type1diabetes #autoimmune
There are some rare post-Covid diseases like #PANDAS or other #autoimmune pathologies. Repeatedly harping on #MECFS takes nothing away from those. Getting lesser known diseases like ME recognized helps spotlight the importance of better medical education for ALL. A rising tide lifts all boats. /end
I didn’t land here because it was inspiring. I had nothing left.
If you’re #wrecked and running on nothing — start small:
#Sleep. #Food that doesn’t hurt. #Movement, just enough.

To respect disease, is to get rid of disease.
Unless of course disease is truly incurable.

Does it weird anyone else out that your eyes have to hide from your own immune system so it doesn’t decide they’re a threat and destroy them?

Miss Vicky’s sea salt, potato chips it says kettle cooked potato chips, Miss Vicky’s sea salt original made with love and care. It has a picture of potatoes and a little wooden bowl of sea salt and then hot in that bag of chips. You see some Sabra original recipe hummus that is opened and ready for consumption.
This is as close to fast food as I ever willingly get.
Not because I don’t like it, but because my body will punish me for days up two weeks if I make the mistake of eating it.
I save a ton on groceries though. #autoimmune
How it'll feel when I'm no longer injecting insulin after 25 years, no gad65 Inflammation and the rest #diabetes #t1d #theEnd #autoimmune
What proportion of t1D have double diabetes after a certain amount of years from onset? Suspect the answer is quite high maybe even a majority of cases. Yet we don't really do anything about it 🤔 #t1d #diabetes #autoimmune
Excellent walk today. My #MS had me a little wobbly, but I met FOUR new neighborhood #dogs. My favorite is when I ask the owner if I can pet them and they say, "You can try, she's really shy," and then we become best friends.
