Commission: Play on!

Commission: Play on!

-Slowly feeling a little better, still feeling ungodly tired.

-Going to need to get blood tests done, which I will get done tomorrow or Friday, to rule out anything besides chronic depression causing the problems. If there is we will deal with it, but I need to do this first before I get medication changes.

-I may be getting medication to help deal with the nightmares, but blood test comes first. I have PTSD nightmares and night terrors. 

-After that I will be getting a referral to a neurologist about my spine and figuring out a pain management routine. I really, REALLY hope they don’t give me opiates. PLZ NO. 

-I do have a referral to physical therapy, and it’s going to suckkk. I demand to get to use the hot tub if I choose to go through with it. I needs it. It’s too damn painful without something to look forward to in the end.

-There is nothing that can be done for scoliosis except to monitor it and catch it early when my spine starts to disintegrate. When that happens I’m fucked. 

-I will probably have to appeal my disability without any new info, because they’ll just rattle it around and reject me again in another 4-6 months and by then I should hopefully have more paperwork. I only have about 20 days left to appeal before my chance is lost, perhaps forever. 

-Still a six month wait for psychiatrists but my doctor can at least prescribe the drugs I need. It’s just, Social Security demands proof from a psychiatrist and I don’t think they will accept my general doc’s opinion. 

-There is a woman’s health expo this Saturday and I want to go because they are offering free screenings, including ultrasound booby exams which I will love to get. 

-Gottah get new glasses too, cause mine aren’t working as well anymore.

I got a mammogram scheduled for the 24th. For those that don’t know what that is,it’s a test where they xray your breast tissue to look for lumps and other abnormalities. If they find anything weird they will tell you and tell you what to do next. 

I got my bone density tested, the results are normal so that’s good. Them thinning is the sign of osteoporosis. I guess the fact I drink a LOT of milk is keeping my bone density good lol.

I also got this weird test that tells you the percentage of fat, water, and muscle in your body. I need more muscle that’s for sure, in my back mostly. They do offer therapeutic massages but those are not covered by insurance. It’s like, 40-100 bucks and they got all kinds of things there but it’s not considered ‘medical’ for some reason. 

I have to go back to the doctor anyway cause she forgot to refer me to a pain clinic which I REALLY need. I have a physical therapy referral to go over next and see what can be done about that. 

I sent in my disability appeal and I fully expect to get rejected again but at least it’s still in the system and gives me time to get all these doctor notes and the like.

All the energy I do have is going to my obligations like backlog commissions and patreon. I probably won’t be able to do any other projects than those for a while. Maybe in Summer I’ll feel okay enough to juggle my personal projects, (Trust, Stellarmass) again but for now I gottah manage my energy carefully. 

All my animals are fine. All of my arthropods are molting and eating well. Rosie and Pinkie are starting to get along a lot better. My little curly hair and red rump tarantulas have doubled in size. And they were tiny enough to come in tubes :,). I’m proud! I do not plan on getting any more until at least late spring/early summer. It’s bitter cold and my money needs to go into more important things atm. Local tax is coming up :<

human: uh, that’s a rat. They’ve been showing up ever since we started harvesting grain. We don’t eat them, they eat our food.

cat: free game then. Cool.

human: be my guest.

cat: hey is this spot free? It looks warm and I need a place to have my litter.

humans: this is my house. Feel free, I guess, just don’t get stepped on.

cat: hey can you watch my kittens for me? I need to hunt and I don’t want predators finding them.

human: holy shit these buggers are cute. Nothing will happen to them.

cat: I am going to climb on your lap now and you are going to love me.
