Wanted To Go To London To See A Festival With Some Friends And I Realized I Would Need To Get An Accessible

they CANCELLED the cardiologist appointment i was waiting for for OVER HALF A YEAR!

i was waiting for over an hour just to have someone come up to me to tell me they have to cancel and that i should call in 3 weeks to make a new appointment

the medical system is fucking bullshit and neglectful

i would like to cancel my chronic illness prescribtion... i need to get things done

i feel like i only really developed something similar to health anxiety after a chronic illness...

because what if this is just a new thing now?

teaching people that were curiously asking about my cane how to walk with it because i refuse to make mobility aids a topic that isn't spoken about

why is chronic illness so difficult to understand for healthy people?

like "yes, i am ill everyday"

"no, i will not be getting better soon"

the concept of doctors is better than reality

please if you're sick stay at home if possible or at least wear a mask!

... even if it's just a cold some people don't have the best immune system and i am tired of being sick on top of my chronic illness every other week

shout out to everyone who doesn't have a chronic illness!

How does it it feel to not be terrified of having to stand for longer than a couple minutes?

some guy invited me to go clubbing with him and his friends... i tell him i would go, even though it's not something i usually do, but i couldn't drink because of the medication i'm taking/health issues

he looked at me and just went "oh maybe some other time then"

and my question is why? WHY am i required to drink to hang out with people? and if that's just a rule then there won't be some other time, because i got a chronic illness and not just a cold

one good thing about being chronically ill that i learned about this week is when you need to drive your friend to the hospital for drinking too much alcohol you know your way around and exactly where to go
