Some peoples' kids, I swear.

I wonder if fire cupping would help make my pain go away. Or maybe blood cupping. Or acupuncture.
I think I might see a massage therapist this month. Or a chiro. I gotta try something. My meds aren't working and the THC gummies make me weirder than normal. How much weirder you ask... I start typing on my phone and it starts normal and then I start saying things that sound like Shakespeare era stuff.
I am gonna conduct an experiment... I am gonna eat half of the biggest gummy I've got and I'm gonna either write poetry or sculpt something with my air dry terra cotta clay. It's just an experiment. I think it's going to be fun. Maybe next weekend.
My neighbor who has cancer came over cuz we were under a tornado warning and she got scared. She came into our unit and we talked about how she's falling down a lot and she hurt her knees. Eventually the warning subsided and Pauley walked her out...
She thought I couldn't hear her when she whispered to Pauley "I need your help as my caregiver." Pauley can hardly take care of me and herself. I'm not ok with it. But our neighbor was high and drunk when she got here.
I'm exhaustipated.

This onslaught of pain is exhausting

OMG my left hip is throbbing again. And my eyes...might as well be grapes at a wine stomping festival. I didn't sleep last night. I've been eating very poorly lately. I've been drinking IQ Joe instead of making myself a pot of coffee. Which is fine, it's strong coffee and it's toasted hazelnut flavor. It's delicious.
I have a big stash of coffee but I just got some special tea from August uncommon. And I want to have a tea party with my darling stupidhead wifey Pauley. I was thinking chicken salad sandwiches and biscotti and cinnamon tea for Pauley and pumpkin caramel rooibos tea for me. It's ridonkulously delicious. I think she might enjoy it.
I hate being home alone. I end up curled up in my bed with my blankie and lux my cow baby.
I am sweating quite a lot and I'm overheating. My psychiatrist thinks the sweating is being caused by my Zoloft so he reduced my dose. I guess my frequency of sweating has decreased. He said he wants to get me off Zoloft completely and increase my imipramine. I used to take 75mg of Zoloft and now I'm down to 50mg.
I'm gonna go lay down and meditate for a while...and other lies I tell myself.

It really sucks

The last 3 days have been rough.
I have no answers except for the negative of the pressure of the CSF. I'm waiting for test results from the biopsy of the CSF. My portal sent me an email saying there are test results but I can't access it.
I spent 7 hours in the hospital last night. I had incredibly horrible lumbar pain and both hips. They acknowledged how painful it was and hooked me up with muscle relaxer and a lidocaine patche on my lumbar. I was also very stoned during the appointment. None of my doctors had a problem with my being stoned. I ate half of a 400mg gummy. I knew what I was doing. But that didn't help me with the pain.
So as far as the pain yesterday morning, it was at 9. I waddled the best I could. But this pain is beyond manageable. My hips are waking up. The pain is at 7. But the lumbar pain has never had comfort. And right now that pain is at 8.5.
So that's current news. #lumbarpain

Update 2 days after #spinaltap

The day of, there was some pain. But then the day after, my lumbar pain spiked to 9. I couldn't walk or stand. So we called 911 and we met them outside. The EMT with me was so nice. He's also a cop but he genuinely cared.
The pain is centered on my sciatic nerve. It feels like my hips are being ripped off. Knowing they hit my nerves accidentally... Yup.

This is so stupid

Every time I inhale my ribcage hurts and when I exhale my tummy pain spikes to 8. When that happens my eyes tear up and it's just annoying. My insides really don't feel good. The pain is ridonkulously high.
Someone drank all of my coffee.

OMG for the love of fuck please make it stop hurting

I got sick about an hour ago. Now I've got really bad bubble guts. I feel so shaky and nauseous. I took a Norco, a Pepto, and 2 antidiarrheals. I also took half of a squirt of THC tincture. I feel like I'm being ripped apart. I'm hoping in about 45 minutes I feel better.
I'm listening to oingo boingo and Danny Elfman and happy hardcore and dark dubstep.
My tummy hurts so much. I don't want to move.

Picture of a dragon I started very early this morning. I'm trying to do a study on wings. I did the scale work 2 hours ago.

It's just one rough day after another

I don't get breaks. So I made my own. I had 2 appointments scheduled for this week and my body said nope so I rescheduled both of them. So I had planned to relax, draw, write poetry, sculpt dragons and go to the diner.
No. That's apparently not allowed. I'm too sick to be anywhere far from a bathroom. I need to take seriously stronk meds. I need to be able to contort my lower half like a pretzel when my hips start hurting.
And 4 hours ago I took 2 THC/CBD gummies for my hip pain. My hips feel fine now thank goodness for miracles. Even my right hip doesn't hurt. Crazy, I know!
I don't feel even the slightest bit high. My tummy is a little bit calmer but still hurts, pain jolts every half hour, but I am still constipated. I need to get a milk based drink like milk tea boba.
It's currently snowing. The heat is not on. I'm sitting here 90 percent nakey and I'm sweating profusely wishing I could take off my skin... Meanwhile Pauley says it's cold in here. I need to talk to my doctors to find out what medicine I've got might be causing my hot flashes.
I ate pizza for breakfast and lunch today. It was left over from last night. I don't want to eat anything for dinner. I've got more intake than output. My tummy hurts.
I hurt all over. Oh and I now have sharp pain above my left eye. For as crackers as my body is, I should be glowing at a rave listening to happy hardcore.

Last night I burnt the roof of my mouth on pizza. Isn't it always the things we love the most are the things that hurt us the most?

I haven't had tummy problems this bad in a while. I feel like my tummy is full of gremlins. I keep having sharp stabby pain in the left side of my tummy.
Constipation sucks so much. It hurts like hell. My GI doctor wants me to start eating dark leafy greens and other fiber rich veggies and fruit. I haven't gotten it yet.
So about 5 days ago I got an email saying it was from my bank. They said a suspicious charge was made. I didn't recognize it so I contacted my bank and they disabled the card and were sending me a new card within 7 days. I thought ok great... until the online services I pay for started kicking back for not being able to process. So I'm gonna have lots of late fees. Fun times.

In other news...
My current #coffeeadventure is interesting. I made salted caramel flavored coffee, added white chocolate toffee flavor cappuccino powder, almond milk and a splash of cinnamon roll flavored coffee creamer. I know it's a lot, but you gotta trust me, it's better than 7-Eleven cappuccino. All of the flavors balance out. It's silky smooth and delicious.
My current pain level is 7.5. But my lumbar doesn't hurt at all so I suppose it's not so bad. But the intermittent rolling gut pain sucks.

Because of course

I've got yet another yeast infection. Thank goodness I actually have some of the stronger form of fluconazole.
So now, to recap...
I've got:
*Stenosis
*Fat deposits on my spine have grown back since it was removed 3 and a half years ago
*Bilateral femoral acetabular impingement (hips)
*Osteoarthritis in both hips
*Bilateral bursitis great
*Bilateral intermittent exotropia (eyes)
*Chronic GI distress and constipation
*Chronic migraine
*Seborrheic dermatitis on my entire scalp, face, ears, and beard.
* Schizoaffective
*Complex PTSD
*Borderline personality
I'm being treated for all of my health problems in various ways. My mental health is fantastic. I eat a flower each day and then I fart out clouds. Then the house sprites ate my toenails.

I was hangry. I want cheese fries or poutine at the local bar and poutinary, Liberty bar. So I walked into my kitchen and looked in my freezer. Tater tots. Ok that's a start. I looked in the fridge and found shredded cheese, guacamole and salsa. I'm still disappointed I didn't grab the sour cream. But I smooshed the tots and mixed it with delicious things. Oh it was so yummy!
I've got a full tummy, my blankie, Lux Alba, and my music on Spotify keeping me feeling good. Of course now I have to go back to the kitchen for more juice cuz I drank a whole bottle of coffee in about 10 minutes and forgot it was for taking my evening meds. Whoops. In my defense I got very excited for coffee and I haven't gotten excited for much lately.
My neck really hurts right now. The X-ray from 2 years ago showed some unpleasant snafus including my last vertebrae under my skull has calcified to my skull. I didn't even know that was possible. And the spot under my skull where my optic nerves cross each other has narrowed. None of my eye doctors can give me any real answer about what it means.
My eyes are really hurting. My vision has been trashed since I woke up. Double vision and the left eye keeps fogging up. I gotta call to schedule an appointment with my ophthalmic surgeon cuz I asked my ophthalmologist's nurse about scheduling to talk about the pain and she said he doesn't deal with eye pain, I just gotta go back to the surgeon and tell her what's happening. Fun times.
How's your night going?
