I’ve become allergic to Famotidine. It triggered a full on panic attack that mimicked heart attack like symptoms.

I do have high blood pressure. The first med they gave me gave me anxiety and full blown panic attacks. It took 3 weeks of constant tracking to prove it was the med.

Second med? lol. First day was great. BP isn’t as well controlled though. First night was muscle cramps in the back of my legs (Charlie horse type) and they have since refused to stop so it’s fucking up my potassium/electrolyte levels.

Lady things are sorted and a plan is in place, but we don’t get to touch that fix until BP is under control.

Whoo.

This bitch had left chest pain, left arm pain, shortness of breath and dizziness. So you do not fuck around with chest pain.

I got sky high BP For some reason. So meds it is.

CT Scan and X-rays and bloodwork ruled out all the scary stuff like clots, acid reflux, high cholesterol, high triglycerides… my bloodwork is 100a% clean.

I think there’s a connection to my lady stuff too, but that remains to be seen just yet.

Urgent care yesterday.. doc thinks lady parts.

In agony- Ultrasound for lady parts- showed nothing of concern, no torsion, no cysts… no signs of endo. Nothing other than pain meds.

ER today- because pain meds aren’t cutting it and my dizziness nausea are worse and I feel worse. Was told to go if it got worse.

The good- bloodwork and abdomen are fine! A surprise cause it’s been a while since I had anything done. CT is clear, no hernia, diverticulitis, or anything of concern.

The bad- back to endo. Got a referral so??

???

And here I thought, after my Prismatic Evolution experience I was done with giving a shit about the TGC.

It’s some of the art friends… it’s GORGEOUS.

For me it’s not about card values, it’s the ART. It’s pretty, and I want to study it and just ENJOY IT.

I realized I forgot to share this here.

2nd stained glass mosiac ever. Having a blast with this overall.

Second photo is back lit. I didn’t expect it to look as good because I didn’t exactly prepare it to avoid grout bleed. There’s some but nothing overwhelming.

A little light in the seeming darkness…

This year has been the year of emergency surgeries, injuries, sick dogs, and of course, the loss of Shadow (and I can’t tell you how much I miss his calm energy in this house…)

And it’s looking like dad might have to emergency surgery 2 this year (before the year is out) for his knee.

The small snippets of bright light this year?

My job didn’t fold due to tarrifs.

Magnus did not have a recurrence of blasto.

Ruby saved Magnus and mom from a depression spiral after mom broke her wrist and had surgery and we lost Shadow.

Finished and framed stained glass mosaic. The first mosaic I’ve ever done. Learned a lot. And it won’t be the last. My inspiration for this was 100% the Aurora photos I took earlier this year.

Tonight I put grout on my mosiac that I finished. I have never used grout in any form before and had heard horror stories. I bought premixed grout. More horror stories.

I’ve never made a mosaic before. Stained glass? Yep- took a few classes theough a local studio, but this… this is days of work.

I’m waiting for the hour for it to set up, per the instructions and we’ll see what happens.

The plan is to mix my own grout once I get a few pieces under my belt.

Hi Tumblr.

I finally found my glass stuff and am putting it to good use with mosaic, so here is the only art I’ve done in a while- still in progress mind you.

8x10 inches, stained glass and glass mosaic tile on acrylic sheet.

Haven’t decided if I’m going to grout in black or white yet. All the glass I’m using is pretty opaque and acrylic was just a good solid substrate for this one. I have wood panels and such too. For later.

This surprised me tonight! The neighbor text me to say ‘hey!’ And sent a photo and told me to go outside. I bundled up cause it’s 20 odd degrees F outside and went to the back yard.

We can see them with the naked eye too. And I’m really far south. So this just made my night.
