Medical Updates (IMPORTANT)
4 months ago
I was in the hospital for a pulse of 181 BPM yesterday. It could have been a false positive on my personal heart monitor, but in-hospital it was 140 BPM. My resting is still bouncing between 95 - 115 even at home.
They believe it's due to a lot of stress-induced panic attacks, which I don't disagree with. I've had a lot of stress, lack of sleep, and I'm a disabled indigenous American. Our climate right now is very harmful. I'm losing my benefits, and I worry about my future as a POC. It's been a lot to manage, and I've been at my wits end.
However, I have psuedo-seizures. They are triggered HEAVILY due to my stress and anxiety. With my heart rate this high, it's triggering more and more seizures. I have a history of heart disease in my family, and due to all of my seizures in the past I do have a weaker heart. I am in the process of a follow up with cardiology.
I've had dozens of seizures the past 3 weeks, multiples a day. I've been heavily medicated and it's still not resolving my heartrate issue. So for now, I'm on a loose medical break (aka, it's a forced break that I wish I didn't have to take) As such, I will continue to be quiet. If anything needs to be urgently addressed, please contact my husband monztar !
As for commission status: My NSFW YCH is currently at 90 % completion. I have everyone's base colors down and patterns accurately added, I just haven't finished my own sona's markings (he's about halfway done) - I have been trying to finish it, but my arms have been sore from all the seizures and I'm trying to just rest for right now.

I wanted to make sure I communicated properly that the YCH is very far along, just can't be fully completed yet til I get a grip on my pulse and seizures! I'm picking up new meds in a few hours.
Thank you for making it this far if you're still reading. I'm getting a grip on it!!
