No news, good news (I guess)

General
It's been a while that I don't bring news about my health condition. This usually happens when there's no major info to be shared, thankfully. But still there's people who cares about my condition, so it's more than fair to bring some report. And with that, I totally appreciate their concern. <3
It's been months that I reached remission from my arthritis for the most part. My finger joints still hurts a bit, as well as other articulations occasionally, but my mobility is working fine overall thanks to my medication. This is quite a relief since exactly a year ago I barelly could move my fingers to close a fist, let alone holding a pen properly to work.
Of course, things aren't just a bed of roses. My medication consists on immunosuppressants, which means my body is current under a higher risk of infections. In fact, I got small wounds that got infected twice between 2 or 3 months, and a manifestation of "zoster", a mutation of the chickenpox virus. This usually happens on individuals with low immunity system.
Aside that, I take a weekly dose of vitamin B9 to control the negative effects of my medication on my liver. But I keep doing blood exams regularly to keep tracks on my hepatic factor. I've been reducing the consumption of sugar, not taking alcohol, and should do more exercises. So aside those setbacks, thankfully I'm not dealing with major issues.
About working, I keep focused just on my current commission schedule to avoid more delays. Occasionally I may release new OC adoptables until I'm fine to be available for new commissions, or maybe even start a Patreon.
tl;dr: Aside minor issues, overall I' still in game.
Have a great week everyone! <3

Stay healthy my friend.
Rumor has it apivenom therapy (bee stings) helps to prevent arthritis, but I don't know if it stops a pre-existing condition.
Thanks for the update. Health "surprises" are bad news for EVERYONE.
Appreciate the updates.
get well soon
=^_^=
Keep at it, buddy.
and it still feels weird to think about. It kinda makes you paranoid. Like you almost don't believe it's
true when it actually is. I wish you well Elton. You were one of the catalysts to my furry upbringings. :3
Just be careful.
Still, glad to hear you're cancer-free by now. Thanks for sharing it, and best wishes healthwise. ^^
It's hard to look at things from the big picture sometimes. The best thing we can do is
to just take things one day at a time. Best wishes. ^w^
