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 crazy because he NEVER orders antibiotics, unless dire), and some other medications I can't remember at the moment. :( I have to go see Thromo as soon as possible, it looks like there are blood clots in my lungs AGAIN!!!

My sciatica is acting up, which is always a blast (NOT!!!) I really need to break out of the habit of sitting with my legs crossed; something I have done since I was a wee lass, so it's hard to break that habit. I have to get ultrasounds on both my legs, thanks to these wonderful things called "clots". 

The insane thing is this... I went to tell him that sugar intake does NO effect my glucose at all... sodium does! We didn't get to deal with the fact that ever since the hospital fucked up, and overdosed me on fentanyl during a procedure, my body sometimes forgets to swallow, even if it is just saliva (get your heads outta the gutter).

I guess it's a good thing I see him again next week. Kidney specialist is in a month and a half. Gastro in 2 weeks as well as Thrombo (again, since I have to see them ASAP now). Hematology, Oncology. Neurology (for both IIH and seizures)... it is NEVER ending!!! I really want to say stop all the medical shyt, and let nature take its course, but I have too much to live for.

That being said... I hope you all stay safe. Stay warm/cool. Be well. Be blessed and most of all, Be loved.

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...

  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...
