I really hope the magnesium dose sorts out the appetite and nausea thing because I fucking. I can't. Deal with this many things at once.

I did at least have someone in one of my groupchats tell me they've had a perforated septum as a complication of sinus surgery for a few months now and it hasn't done any harm besides being annoying, and that supposedly the surgery to repair smaller ones isn't so bad. So like. There's that. Hopefully it doesn't take long to see my ENT and he'll be able to reassure me that it's fine and easy to fix and all that. Although I may ask if he can check some things over because apparently autoimmune disease can make you more susceptible to those kinds of holes happening and if this is how we finally catch the bastard that's been ruining my life I'll take it you know?

Among other things I wanna make sure if we go in and fix it, that it won't just. Happen again.

But like. idk. I've picked up so many trailing ailments at this point and I am tired of it. I am tired of being cooped up in the damn house all the time. Having to keep blackout curtains on all summer so I can't even SEE outside my house let alone LEAVE it.

I shouldn't feel elderly in my early 40s.

Then add my psychological bullshit on top of it and I just... ugh. Too much shit all at once you know?

Like I think it would be fair if I am going to pick up a new ailment I need to drop off at least one of the old ones. Instead of them just fucking. Stacking.

Here, this should make it clearer:

Wait, hold on, I can illustrate it in a funnier way

There’s around one and a half Frances between me and the Amazon rainforest.

I had no idea “coach” could also mean “bus” until like, a second ago and I stared at your reply in disbelief for a good minute because I thought you were telling me to do the trip in a horse-drawn carriage. I was like “Coach?! Like Cinderella?! Where would I even get- that HAS to be slower than a car!”

creekfiend

just kidding I'll say it straight up

if you're telling long COVID sufferers they're being conspiracy theorists for talking about the intentional ignoring and downplaying of COVID now, you'd have said the same thing six years into the AIDS epidemic.

enough is fucking enough.

creekfiend

i love how the government can go "we are purposefully going to stop tracking and measuring the harm done by this disease" and everyone just falls in line instantly like "uh oh, we don't have enough information to speculate!" like yeah they knew you would say that. that's why they did it. they know that limiting the amount of information we are able to even have at all is an instant potion of "general public will assume anyone who thinks this is important is crazy conspiracy theorists" lmao

I'm not being fucking vague about "they," have you seen the goddamn CDC lately?

#like we literally have officials on record saying we need to stop paying attention to COVID and get people back to work #like there are politicians who blatantly said we're doing this for The Economy #did people just... forget??? that that happened??????????#did people forget all the “this is the new normal so suck it up buttercup” speeches that were all over the news?#and all the doctors saying HEY THIS IS A BAD IDEA ACTUALLY #it's not a conspiracy theory if it ACTUALLY HAPPENED IN FULL FUCKING VIEW OF THE PUBLIC FOR FUCKS SAKE

aaaa cuuuute!!! thank you!!!

I expected my cpap machine to make a dramatic difference right away but after waking up from my first night on the machine I think the experience can be described as I woke up and thought “well I don’t think I feel dramatically different but it also definitely feels like something in there has been unclogged”

what-even-is-thiss

It’s like uh like when you finally remember to clean the hair out of the shower drain after a while. But with my general vibe.

what-even-is-thiss

According to my app which no is not called cpapp unfortunately I only stopped breathing 1.7 times per hour. Which might sound weird but during my sleep apnea test I stopped breathing 23.5 times per hour so as you can imagine breathing is generally better than not breathing

what-even-is-thiss

I’m not talking about my health just to overshare btw. I think there’s probably other young people out there with sleep apnea who might need to hear someone in their 20s discussing this.

Don’t feel ashamed to get tested if you’re tired all the time or someone has told you that you gasp for air in your sleep. Get your shower drain unclogged.

quakerhobbit

I'm 35 and I got tested for sleep apnea in the fall and I was having OVER 50 EVENTS PER HOUR.

Got my cpap and holy shit the difference. I am actually rested when I go to bed at a reasonable time. I no longer need daily 2-4 hour naps just to function.

And I also suspect that it might be helping me not get as many colds, because that nightly airflow clears things out.

I'm really glad I have my cpap now and everything is better, but also wish I had got tested earlier, because maybe if I'd caught this sooner I wouldn't have developed some of the other health issues I deal with. But I thought I was so tired all the time because I'm a parent and autistic.

So yeah, even if you think you know why you're always tired, get tested just in case.

#we thought I might have apnea especially since I was also snoring #but no. apparently instead my brain just does not go into REM deep sleep nearly as much as it's supposed to per night #there's all of two drugs that help with that and one of them ripped my digestive system apart dfjlghsdjflkghljk #thankfully the other one is fine but like #I have to take breaks from it every so often because it stops working at random #so like you gotta go without a day or two to reset that shit idk why #my partner has a cpap tho and has a distinct advantage over me in winter #because that thing has a humidifier chamber in it dklfjghlkjadfhlkjga

some silly thing i scribbled in 2 seconds after reading this artical

having just visited Pompeii last October, let me tell you something. You cannot swing a cat in that place without hitting a takeout counter. they’re fucking EVERYWHERE. Your fantasy novels are severely underestimating the sheer availability of takeout

I live in the northwest coast of Canada so we walk everywhere and do stuff outside in the rain and swim in whatever lakes and rivers we find so imagine my smug sense of Canadian superiority when I met a USAmerican Midwesterner who was horrified at the very thought

And then I went to the USAmerican Midwest

And I understood

teaboot

What I mean to say is that it's very easy to delude yourself into believing you are more in tune with your environment when your environment is not actively hostile to your existence in every conceivable way

BC, Canada:

Rains frequently, but the worst is like standing under a bathroom shower. Genuinely inhospitable rainstorms are uncommon.

Along the coast, it's pretty easy in most areas to walk to at least one store, or else there's usually a bus or shuttle available. There are sidewalks and bike lanes everywhere.

It's a temperate boreal rainforest, so while there are many freshwater lakes and rivers, they're usually pretty cold. The biggest danger is typically getting caught in a strong current, and the most dangerous animals in swimming distance are on land.

Earthquakes happen almost every day, but the vast majority go unnoticed. Buildings are designed to withstand bigger seismic activity, so unless it's a 5 or higher it just kind of feels like having low blood sugar for a second. There are no tornados

Rural Illinois, USA:

One minute it's sunny, then ten minutes later that distant smudge on the horizon has swallowed the entire sky in black clouds and the water is coming down like waterfall and you literally CANNOT SEE. Then there's a crash like cymbals and you need to get indoors because the thunder and lightening are on TOP of you

No sidewalks until you are in the smack dab center of town, which is a three hour walk or twenty minute drive from wherever you are.

There aren't many natural bodies of water other than small ponds and creeks, and because the environment is so much warmer, those are filled with snapping turtles that can grow bigger than a nine year old child and water snakes that are incredibly venomous. These are paired with leeches and mosquitos for that sweet umami flavor.

Sometimes Jupiter, Lord of the Heavens decides to jam his finger into the side of your house just to fuck with your whole shit and throws your truck a thousand yards into the nearest church

#also for the creeks and shit stuff is a lot more polluted than it used to be #so you get fun things like pesticide runoff and flesh eating bacteria #a lot more bodies of water USED to be safe around here :(#I wouldn't dare to wade in most of them now and this upsets me #because being able to wade in streams is a core part of my being

it sucks that the overwhelming majority of medical messaging around salt/sodium is "evil poisonous substance that you're definitely already eating way too much of," because like. you do still need it. (trust me, as a POTS-haver, I've had to completely rewire my own brain about salt.) and you need more salt when the entire northern hemisphere is hot enough to fry an egg on. ever tried sucking down the recommended 64oz of hydration per day entirely as water, only to find you're peeing constantly without any of the purported benefits of being "hydrated"? assuming you don't have another medical condition that causes frequent urination, your body probably needed more salt/electrolytes to be able to hold onto that water and make use of it. if there was ever a time to keep a sports drink/pedialyte/etc within constant reach, it's when the heat index is 110°F/43°C.

#my favorite is an electrolyte powder called Skratch #its balance is a little better imo than most sports drinks #because USUALLY I don't need quite that much salt unless I waited too long to hydrate #it's a tiny bit lower sodium much lower sugar and has more magnesium which is also lost at a pretty high rate when you dehydrate #plus it takes up less space than sports drinks and if I need more concentration I can just add an extra scoop #like when I can I keep both in the house #but the powder has REALLY come in handy just as a staple in the pantry
