April 11th: Do you find doctor's/dentist's/etc appointments difficult as an autistic person? Why? Do you have trouble booking appointments or managing insurance? Do you have someone that helps with this? Do you have someone come to appointments to help advocate for you?
Pixie not at all able do anything related to medical things . Guardians and caregivers handle all medical things for Pixie . Like . Finding appropriate medical Professionals , making appointments , talking and answering questions , schedule exams and tests , prescriptions , health insurance coverage , transportation , and everything else .
Pixie not can do any of that , need other people to do all that or it just not get done at all . Why is because Pixies medical stuff very much too complicated for Pixie to understand .
And . All medical stuff require much much much better communication skills than Pixie is capable of .
Also . All medical stuff require much better interoception ability than Pixie have . So . Pixie also need help like . finding out whether medicine is useful or working . If have bad side effects . If have new medical problems . All that require outside intervention , observation , help . Because . Pixie not can tell much about Pixie body .
