Am I Alive? Maybe.. Kinda... Sigh
7 months ago
If you know me, or follow me, you know that I am a long term autoimmune sufferer with several issues... The main one being Lupus. Lupus has been kicking my ass completely. I've been in a perpetual state o autoimmune Hell for months, up to and including horrific scalp psoriasis plaques that feel more like horns than normal scalp skin, cracking skin on my scalp, inflammed joints... You name it. Add in a back, knee, and ankle injury from a bad fall in December that has left me with two bulging disks, torn ligaments, and a destroyed bursa and yeah... I'm in Hell.
BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE!
The other night was devoted to an ER trip complete with heart attack symptoms and elevated, but stable, Troponin T levels has revealed that Lupus has very likely caused damage to my heart and I need to jump on a biologic that my damned insurance has denied even wth my 10+ year long documented battle with autoimmune diseases. They said they WILL cover it if I come out of pocket and show that it shows success in resolving the immune response that I've been in. Cute right? No? Yeah... Not cute...
So this is me pushing my shit to try and get that biologic covered. Check out the stickers I have listed or HMU for a quick sketch... Something... Thanks in advance for your help on this drama, I'm not one to usually ask for help, let alone beg.
Hope y'all are doing better than I am!
Always,
