Chronic Illness Trading Cards

I often joke that #ChronicIllness is like #Pokemon so I created a trading card game. I’ll be releasing them on Monday during #MonsterMonday on Facebook. I have #RheumatoidArthritis #Lupus and #sjogrens just to name a few! My first #symptom is #ChronicFatigue ! This is something I experience a lot and is one of my hardest symptoms! So many conditions experience #BrainFog so meet #BrainFogger - the first of many I’m releasing!

I guess it’s going to be one of those days.

Last week I had #icepickheadache that radiated in my throat and ear and lasted a week. I finally ended up seeing my neurologist and was given medication. It subsided. I had a couple of days of tolerable pain. Today, I woke up with no #Pain , but my head feels heavy and my body feel drained. I miss having a full week of #symptom free days. Can anyone relate?

Everything’s okay

Had my eyes looked at today and everything’s okay. Well, as in they can’t see anything wrong other than my left eye is slightly dry.

They recommended some eye drops that I bought so I bought them. They said maybe the reason why the other ones caused me pain was because they probably had preservatives in them. I suppose I’ll see if they work.

Was supposed to hear from my counsellor yesterday but never did. Thankfully #Depression is meh atm.

Chronic pain is meh too. Still no flare and I’m just wondering what hell I’ll have to pay when it happens. I don’t want to dare believe that the chronic pain is gone after last time. Also dealing with a new #symptom of sorts atm anyway- swollen ankles. Started a week ago and I was trying to post about it but of course the Cloudflare outage happened then.

At the moment I’m beginning to feel a bit #overwhelmed / having a #SensoryOverload as I keep hearing this ticking sound and I can’t find it and I can’t sleep because I can still hear it. It really sucks being #Autistic sometimes.

TFW when you don't know aka #thestruggleisreal

Is it a #Flareup from #ChronicIllness , a bad #MentalHealth day, a new #symptom , a new illness, or are you imagining it all?
Welcome to the special hell.
