It shouldn’t take 2+ years to get the proper bloodwork and testing, all of these symptoms are not just due to my spine disease. Finally someone’s listening!

What a difference a fortnight makes! Granted I'm wearing make-up on the right (today), but there's times I don't recognise myself 😔

Yea, neither my brain nor body wanna work today.
Highly unlikely I'm gonna stay functional long enough to watch TAR live tonight. Will have to do my usual catch-up post in the morning tomorrow.
(by morning, I of course mean mid-afternoon)
#LifeWithChronicIllness
Learning to pace with #chronicillness isn’t about doing less—it’s about doing differently. In this post, I’m sharing the simple weekly check-in that helps me prevent burnout, plan around unpredictable energy, and stay grounded in what my body actually needs.

Trying to find solutions to problems no one wants to help us with.
It is not easy when the solutions you really need aren't available in your area (as in only available in Copenhagen, our capital)

I'm sorry for the things I said when I was flaring. @MGWarrior
When your body feels like garbage, it's on fire, or "fill in the blank" your loved ones may think you're upset with them when in reality you're in pain, fatigued, mad at your body, or "fill in the blank." Be open about your experience. #LifeWithChronicIllness #MGWarrior
Earlier this day I fell during vacuuming because I tripped over something and my cat immediately came running to check up on me. She’s such a sweet and precious girl ♥️

Little inescapable reminders of having a ✨️complex medical history✨️ #lifewithchronicillness
I'm trying to tread water and stay afloat, but the waves of the world are crashing closer. #LifeWithChronicIllness
😣 Spent the day masking at work.
🛏️ Spent the evening bedrotting // doing aftercare to recover.
🤞✖️🔥 Hoping tomorrow doesn't bring a flare.

So far I’ve got:
-Doing things twice as slowly as I usually do (this near kills me but I defo burn through pace points slower).
-Reducing the amount of time I am upright. If I do things sitting down , I use less pace points and don’t get quite so fatigued.

Cautiously optimistic that the low histamine diet might finally help me to stop getting sick almost every time I eat. Ate some chicken & rice yesterday fine, but feeling sick today after eating it as leftovers. If just freezing leftovers will help, I might cry with happiness. #lifewithchronicillness
Another way to make your feed user friendly to those with screen readers is to capitalize each word in a tag, such as #LifeWithChronicIllness ...then the screen readers read each word, not just nonsense.
