A Fresh Week ~ What Could Possibly Be on the Way?!!

 

Page 163 of 366. Good afternoon my Lovies. It has been a rather sluggish kind of day. I really wasn't going to drag my ass out of bed, but I felt I could at least get up and write an entry, or two.

I switched my blood thinner injections to pill form, and I have went from 18,000 units to 10mg, so it HAS been reduced excessively. I look like a bruised up deflated football and it's painful. 

Let's hope this is a good thing, although I am already extremely nauseous and feeling pretty wonky. 

There are so many more cons than pros to this medication, the only plus I honestly see with me taking it is this... 

It's gonna be easier for medical professionals to stop me from bleeding out, that stroking out, right?!!

I know people don't want me to be speaking negatively, and I am not in a negative space; I am just being upfront and realistic about my health. We all hope that things will settle and I can get a bit of a reprieve from sooo much at once; but when has life ever been fair? 

Nah, it likes to take me on winding, twisted, valleys and hills like you've never seen before... It may be a difficult journey, one I would not change because the scenery, and people I have met along the way have made this journey worth every second. I take the bad with the good, because had we not experienced bad/hard things in our lives, we would never know what sheer joy and good things are; nor appreciate them the way we should.

Anyways, I am not here to whine about trivial bullshit right now. I just wanted to pop in, let you know that I am doing okay. It is day one with yet another new medication... so let's see how my body takes this one, and if I can handle it, or stuck on injections indefinitely; which is what they wanted originally. Take care Lovies.

Stay safe. Stay cool/warm. Be well. Be loved.

It's a Hide Under the Covers Kinda Day

Page 14 of 365. Good Afternoon Lovies. I really, really hope your day is going better than mine!!! Sorry, woke up at the asscrack of dawn, as I had a doctor's appointment this morning.  Thankfully it was with my family doctor; appointments with him are fairly painless.  Today, however; things kinda went sideways.  I am usually in and out within 10 mins for these appts, but today? I was there for over 45 minutes. Of course, it didn't help that I was puking maroon blood in the office. I know, I don't share a lot of my medical nor really personal stuff on here, but just so you're aware, this has been happening daily since end of May/beginning of June last year. I am what they call an "anemic blood clotter" which I didn't think was possible, but apparently it runs on the paternal side of my family. Anyways, that was the main focus of my visit after that. My stomach medication is being switched AGAIN, this time I am being set up with an antibiotic (which is cra...

FFS I Matter Too!!!

Good evening lovies. I have been struggling with something that is very close to my heart. I truly do not know where to proceed next. I'm going to try and make a very long story as simple as I can... I was adopted at 5months of age, (well apprehended at 5 months, adopted at 5 years). There is something that adoptees yearn for all their lives... WHY?  I know for me there were many questions and on my 19th birthday it appeared I was going to get those answers when I met the woman who birthed me. Unfortunately, I was sorely mistaken!!! Years went by, and I allowed this woman to have control over certain things that were weighing heavily on my heart, She held the one piece of the puzzle that felt missing from my heart... who my biological father was?!! I, one day decided that I wasn't going to allow another person have that kind of control over me... EVER!!! I left the situation alone. I struggled deeply. I was literally at war with myself. on this topic. In a way, I felt guilty th...

Tis the Season.... Why I Am Proud of Local Tattoo Shop!!!

  Page 307 of 366. Good Afternoon Lovies. I am not sure how long this blurb is going to be; as it seems to be a topic I have been beating to death this past year. I know it is the time of the year where we switch from Halloween/Samhain into Thanksgiving (in the US) to Yule/Christmas season.  I hate pointing out this fact, but people seem to feel like Christmas time is the only time of the year that they should be charitable...  Is it out of guilt that you are donating, or is it because you genuinely feel you should be helping people??? I AM sort of calling you out because this is NOT the only time of the year that the homeless, or the downtrodden need help. I cannot stand that this is around the only time you will see non-stop commercials/ads or billboards that are asking for help with various charities; also the time we see commercials about driving under the influence. WHY IS THAT??? Driving under the influence is a year-long problem... I will not get into details about...
