We are finally in a room. It took 4 hours, which isn’t the worst we’ve experienced. Luckily they’re calling her neurologist. Maybe we’ll actually figure this ish out.
Wife and I are at the ER. She’s been having what her neurologist (our neurologist? We see the same guy) think are seizures. She’s been having small tremors off and on since February. We think it was caused by Paxil, which she rapid detoxed from under medical care a few months ago.
Today the whole body tremors/shaking are constant. With all her medical issues, I try to stay positive and strong. We do it for each other.
Hubby is at home getting cleaning done for the plumbing. It’s just another day in our life. It’s weird.
Horses is always up there. Weather. Maps. The post office. Music.
What's the topic that gets your more excited than any other? Is it more than one?
Mine is graveyards and anything to do with space!
What the fuck
So recently I have learned that neurotypical people are not aware of things like the following at all times:
How their clothing feels
Their body odor
The taste of their saliva
The hum of electronics
What. The. Fuck.
I don't understand that at all
To me sensory issues are like my chronic pain. I can let it fade into the background a lot of the time but it's always there
Like I am always fucking having to deal with it and other people just don't?
What the fuck!
Sometimes I feel like breaking down asking myself "why is everything so hard for me?" "Why can't I do the same things as other people?" "Why do I need to struggle with the stupidest of things?" But then I remember autism is a ✨️disability✨️ and I am, in fact, disabled
Y’all, our plumber came by today. I’m so excited. Work on the plumbing system starts next week.
Short back story, we have two functioning toilets and one working sink. In a household of 7! Not ok. The house was built in 1955 and has original pipes (cast iron) that are crumbling. I have never been more excited about people jackhammering at 8 am on a Monday than I am now.
We celebrated Christmas Adam yesterday by decorating stockings and playing board games!
christmas eve what about christmas adam
Dorothy has been feeling ill for a number of weeks, and is worried that there might be something seriously wrong with her health. But, after seeing numerous doctors and specialists, no one can give her an answer as to what the issue could be, and instead dismiss her concerns with claims that she’s simply depressed about being single or getting older. Dr. Budd, in particular, suggests that she ‘take a cruise’ or ‘change your hair colour’ to make herself feel better, as his own wife did. Dorothy begins to wonder if it’s all in her head, but the girls assure her that they know she’s sick because they know her. Finally, after her friend, Dr. Weston, recommends her to specialist Dr. Chang, Dorothy is diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS). Relieved and happy that she finally has a name for what’s wrong with her – and that she’s not ‘crazy’ like the doctors originally made her believe – she takes the girls out to a celebratory dinner and sees Dr. Budd in the restaurant, where she decides to confront him about his treatment of her.
