Bell peppers, mushrooms, carrots, and tomatoes with a vegetarian wrap at least thrice a day and eating strawberry ice-cream with fresh banana slices (sometimes with a vegetarian dessert, sometimes without)

Edit: also prompted to drink mint and basil infused water; mint and basil are both rich in vitamin k, a vitamin that assists with blood clotting and bone health. As a sickler with arthritis and sclerosis still recovering from 5 nosebleeds, this is a great discovery.

November 28, 2024:

Silver Primary, Mirror, Ghost.

So, this year was a rollercoaster, we all know. But one of the most traumatic moment of my 2020 was when one of my best friends was diagnosed with MS (Multiple Sclerosis). Despite all the suffering, my friend kept being positive and hopeful, and she created a store on teespring to support MS research (all the income goes to National Multiple Sclerosis Society)! She’s a true warrior and I’m so proud of her!

If you want to contribute (and be a very CHRONIC YET ICONIC person), here’s the store: https://teespring.com/stores/chronicyeticonic?page=1

So, I have been diagnosed with MS.

I felt like utter crap when I got to the hospital on Wednesday (first picture), where I had two scans and a spinal fluid test. That last one hurts like a bitch. I was given two litres of salt water, by drop, to make up for the fact that I was severely dehydrated. I was told that it looked to be a blood clot in the brain, or meningitis - until the MRI came back, when they decided that it might be sclerosis.

Thursday morning I was moved to another hospital, which specialises in sclerosis and neurotic diseases. Their specialists were busy though, and I was told that I could expect getting a final diagnosis by Monday.

I gradually got better during the weekend, and was capable of walking again, even if it’s slow and uncertain. My legs and hand suffered from sensitive disturbances, but I keep them alive by walking, and typing on the computer or painting in my colouring book.

Today I got the diagnosis. I’m okay, really, and it’s been commented more than once, that I take it all rather well.
