update 2.0 -- medical, work, etc
4 years ago
so finally done with all the mental health stuffs, got a new therapist etc.
now onto the actual physical health stuff. apparently i've been taking way better care of myself than i thought i was. not the greatest for a diabetic with no medicine to keep blood sugar under control, but i'm still at the a1c of 12.8. i was able to get my blood tested and see my pcp finally after 2 whole years since i had some money come in and i was able to get everything checked out. or at least partially. in the three months to follow i'll be under strict medication and diet, which is going to be hard as eating diabetic is very difficult when also suffering from so many mental factors that make my bloodsugar go fucking crazy
i have a freestyle libre now, my gramma's been getting them sent to her constantly but she doesn't have a smart phone and they won't stop sending it, so she just let me have them all!! meaning i don't have to upset my neuropathy or fibro to check my blood sugar anymore, even if they're only 86% accurate. it's close enough to not risk hurting my hands.
people keep yanking me left and right to do things outside of my home so i haven't been able to do any art at all, which infuriates me. i'm going to do at least ONE PAGE tomorrow since i have to see how this thing's going to effect my motor functions anyway due to the fact it gives me random muscle pains in my bicep due to where it's placed. it's not nearly as bad as it could be.
i'm still trying to get my bloodpressure under control, as i have so many factors that will affect my kidneys if i'm not careful, and my chiro is no longer a thing for me until i can figure out how to make another 100$ for the next four sessions.
i'm still in the process of getting licensing done, I have to wait for correspondence from the board now as opposed to the school so i can schedule the test and then finally get placed in an internship properly.
things are moving along, even if very slowly.
i appreciate everyone's patience, and to those who have been keeping up with me on my health... thank you. i don't have anyone here who understands or doesn't treat me like i'm anything more than a tool or some kind of free labor at this point, so when people poke me on twitter or here in comments, even if i don't get to respond to every single note or message i get, it does bring a tear to my eye because i'm so overlooked and uncared for as a whole.
i'm trying to get better so i can get my head in a proper place and back to work.
i appreciate all of you so very much, thank you. i can't say it enough. i'm sorry for all the ups and downs of this last year or so, it's been bad for all of us thanks to this damn panorama and dealing with my own medical and being told about all sorts of crap that i may or may not be. people like diagnosing me with everything but never providing enough medical proof and paperwork to where i can actually get proper treatment.
so knowing you guys are willing to help or offer advice really does help, especially if I do actually have BPD on top of everything else. i don't want to end up a danger to anyone (not that i have alters that are dangerous, i just worry that blacking out randomly might put me in a car wreck or worse you know?) or myself so everyone who has been trying to help has been a blessing.
love you guys, i'll try to keep you guys posted here as much as i do on twitter. it's easier to update twitter since i generally keep it short and sweet there from my phone. fa doesn't like my phone much.
