We love finding a doctor who’s like “hey, let’s see if this medication will help your headaches” instead of just trying to refer me to neurology.

Kellogs should pay me with how much my body advertises for them. My joints constantly snap, crackle, and pop.

I finally have an appointment with a rheumatologist on Friday. I’m hoping I can possibly get some answers about why my joints hurt all the time.

I don't know why but my right shoulder has been hurting for days and I can't think of what could have caused it. I'm not sure if its a muscle thing or my possible arthritis but I want it to stop. I'm going to my PCP tomorrow but I don't want to mention it to her cuz I know that she will just schedule me for an x-ray and I don't think its necessarily something that would show up on an x-ray so its just going to cost me more money in the long run.

So I talked to my doctor today and she scheduled me a blood test to see if I have any autoimmune diseases that is causing my joints to hurt. And I’m conflicted because I don’t want arthritis even though I suspect I have it… but I also want it to be arthritis because then I have a name for it and can start finding ways to treat it. I guess it’s more wanting a diagnosis cuz either way I’m gonna have the pain.

Out of everything I did today which included a mile walk, going to put the laundry in the dryer is what made me out of breath??? Not even carrying the heavy laundry to the laundry room! Also on top of that, one I had to use my cane just to go down there because I felt like my knee was going to fold under me and then my ankle started hurting for now fucking reason! What the fuck!?

I sat up for like an hour to watch an episode of a show with my mom and now my leg really hurts why does my body hate me?
