Fingers are super crossed that my doctors appointment goes well this week 🤞🏻
Really hoping for an Ozempic/Wegovy prescription (whichever my insurance will approve) and to upgrade to a Freestyle Libre 3 prescription 🤞🏻
I’m truly just so defeated with my health & my body at this point.

~another little update~
tl;dr it’s going to take me longer to get surgery than I’d hoped 😔
The American health insurance system sucks. I was all set to schedule my sinus surgery (see this post for context) only to learn that my insurance no longer considers the clinic system I was using in-network.
I essentially have to start over if I don’t want to pay lots of money that I do not have. I scheduled a consultation with a new, in-network ENT but the earliest opening was February 7th. Until then I’m in sinus infection purgatory and it’s likely that the surgery won’t happen until March.
I really appreciate everyone’s kind and supportive replies to my last update, I wish I had better news to share <3

I'm fine all day but the moment it gets past 10pm I'm stuck in a fear spiral about my health problems

I had to take the strongest meds for fibromyalgia last night, and it didn’t work :)
I hate this so much

no joke but what I really want for Buddy Daddies as a fandom is to make fanart and fanfic post present time ep12 where Rei wears an arm orthosis when working.
I think varied disability aids being represented would be fantastic, and personally would write Rei as someone being deeply proud of something he's done for his family, but also understanding with time that using an orthosis also helps him at work and in raising Miri. with a giant portion of mobility/motorics aids being represented by prosthetics, seeing more variety and exploring it in fiction would also help making a step in normalising disability treatments.

people on tumblr will literally post things like “you have to eat vegetables and expand your palate i dont care if you are a picky eater because of autism (if i can overcome it you can too)” and everybody will reblog it being like “yes this is true for everybody no matter what” and think its okay. like sorry but that wont work for everyone and there is no one size fits all and some people will never be able to eat these things no matter how hard they try. im only allowed by my doctors to eat recreationally and not for nutrition, because my ARFID is so severe that i get my nutrition solely from a specially made formula drink. your suggestions of “try vegetables roasted!” or “try them in soup!” and assurances of “i did it, you can too!” don’t work for those of us with more severe mental illnesses and disabilities. stop tying a person’s worth to their diet and stop assuming everybody has the ability to do what you can.

Shigeo is asking Reigen for advice on asking out a special boy!
I really love @pearliegrimm fic "Sometimes That's Better". It's hilarious and I was literally laughing out loud while reading it. I hope to draw more comics from the fic (adding to my long list of WIPs).
This is a scene from the very first chapter, so if you enjoyed it go check out the fic!

I know I've been on about this for a while now and I'm being a hater but you're telling me SydCarmy was "always meant to be platonic" even though there are two seasons of writing making use of tried-and-true explicitly romantic tropes, themes and writing signals, and SydLuca is going to be romantic because...he was nice to her on screen for a few minutes?
I don't even care if people ship SydLuca, or if they just prefer it, but you can't honestly tell me that you believe Carmy was always meant to be a friend but Luca is an obvious love interest.
Just because Syd and Carmy haven't kissed or confessed their love to each other doesn't mean that isn't very obviously the direction this show is going. The Bear has already shown you who is endgame. It has shown you every episode of the show so far.
Honestly I really don't think The Bear fanbase understands this show or cares about these characters or the story being told here, which is unfortunate because this show is shockingly well-written in comparison to most shows right now, and we should be so grateful for it but all we're doing is complaining that the writers led us on by not making a ship canon fast enough. It's just. Sad.
