After a fall out with one of my best friends, the news that my cat might be ill, my back pain returning in full force, having to work overtime, not knowing what to get my nephews for Nikolaus or Christmas because my brothers and sisters in law never have time (or motivation..) to see me, having a hardcore week while coming home 2 hours after my shift ended because the busdriver didn't pick me up after I waited 50 minutes for my bus, having the emergency shift at work from Saturday to Sunday, baking cookies for my nephews on Sunday morning you know what happens? When I'm finally done with it? On the night before Monday where I have another 9 hour shift?

I get another biliary colic.

And after the hotline for the nightshift doctors were beyond unhelpful and the colic finally ended I took a nap, got up and went to my 9 hour shift of work.

I've never been this close to say fuck it, go to my doc and tell her I need time off right the fuck now.

prev reblog reminding me that when i found out i had gallstones a doctor told me it was because of taking t and should consider not doing that. as if stopping t would now get rid of the already existing gallstones

Docter: So if you start having pains on your right side, you need to come to the ER and get your gallbladder removed My body: Starts having pains on the left side instead

my friend has finally posted their game the Engine of Fortune and yall should go check it out!! ive been in a ton of games that used it n its super fun, the character creation prompts always create the freakiest little guys

putting the link here n then below the cut im gonna talk abt one of my favorite guys from an Engine of Fortune game

so all characters in the Engine of Fortune are made up of two parts: identity and inventory. when you lose a card draw you have to cross off one of these parts. inventory usually goes first, cause identity is a rough thing to lose.

enter my guy:

Ishmael BALTASAR [he/him]

Inventory: +1 Determination Right Leg Left Arm Left Hand Right Arm Right Thigh 27 Various Teeth (3 Canines) 2 Stomachs Liver Head Torso Gallbladder Appendix Half of a Large Intestine Gallbladder Left Lung Left Kidney Tongue Bonesaw Surgery Kit Big Hat Worn Trenchcoat

you'll notice the inventory is crossed off. well :3 he pissed off an angel and it liquefied all the organs he was carrying around in his... pockets... (magic pockets). meaning he lost his bits and his trenchcoat in one go. truly tragic. took his hat off in sorrow and never put it on again.

dont worry tho :3 he helped to trap the big bad (vampire) and escaped with the remaining 2/5ths of his polycule. truly a win

i was doing a frankenstein thing here - this game had an emphasis on lineage and bloodlines, so i figured i gotta make a guy whos looking to mess up that whole system. we never found out if he succeeded 😔 rip to a real one i hope u and ur (male)wife and ur jester are doing well

[ousama]

i can down liquids again yayy. theyre maybe going to put me under again tomorrow to rip out my gallbladder which is annoying but such is life

[scariusaquarius]

So sorry that Rehab is taking so long. Things have been very bad here emotionally, and I'll go into detail under the cut

1. My relationship has been failing

We've been fighting a lot as of late, and we are starting to come to an impasse about a lot of things. Not only that, but we have been struggling with something I cannot legally talk about, so that hasn't been great. This has been a very big and present issue

2. I have been feeling very homesick

Because of the problems in the relationship, i have been feeling very homesick and frustrated. I don't have any family here, I don't have any friends, and I really miss being able to see the stars at night. I hate the city.

3. Been dealing with a lot of physical pain

I have been having extreme and unbearable stomach pain every single time that I eat or drink anything. Even water can trigger the pain sometimes. I dont know if it's my gallbladder, my pancreas, a stomach ulcer, etc. I have my radiology appointment soon to determine that. But I've been to the ER twice because of how horrible the pain is, and I can't keep anything down. It's been sucking

4. New medication makes me very drowsy

I was put on mood stabilizers, and even though it is a medication that I took before for my epilepsy, it still causes me to be drowsy, so I tend to nap or fall asleep at any given time, even when i take it at bedtime. It's a struggle there too rip

8 years ago today I got my gallbladder removed!! Rip to that guy I guess, I was 10 at the time what the hell

[geeky-politics-46]

hey geeky hope you're well!

Hello. Health wise I am doing great! I have had no more issues or episodes since my gallbladder removal. So physically I'm aces right now. Mentally it's a little more tricky. My anxiety has been nuts but I'm working on trying to channel it into productive things.

In fact I'm planning to get at least 2 pieces published this month. The 1st one this week hopefully.

On the reality side, things are definitely rough in the good ole USA right now. Every day, we awaken to the new horrors this administration has planned & every day, we lose a little bit more of our country ripped apart. Honestly, one of the hardest things at the moment is not letting the news exhaust you & zap you of all hope. I spend a lot of time trying to hang onto my hope.

How are you doing? Since you submitted this as anonymous, you don't have to share if you don't want to. So I guess the invitation is open to everyone, does anyone want to share?

After thorough testing and experimentation with various foods and drinks, we have come to the conclusion that I have become lactose intolerant. Originally, we were concerned about fat intake, and that it might be a gallbladder issue, because that is something that does run in the family alongside lactose intolerance. But I don't eat fatty things very often because I can't tolerate the feel of them on my skin, and anytime I do eat something fatty, I don't have the issues as when I eat something with dairy in it.

Mac n' Cheese? I get sick. Boxed/Homemade with Butter and Milk? Sick. Box with ONLY Squeezable Velveeta 'cheese'? I don't get sick. Velveeta isn't cheese.

Cereal and Milk? I get sick.

Singapore Meifun? I don't get sick.

Pizza? I don't get sick.

Baked Chicken? I don't get sick.

Pork Tenderloin? I don't get sick.

Yogurt? I get sick.

Ice Cream? I get sick.

Sausage Gravy & Biscuits? I get sick.

Pancakes made w/Milk? I get sick. Pancakes made w/Water? I don't get sick.

Chili? I don't get sick.

Taco Meat? I don't get sick.

Ice Pops/Italian Ice? I don't get sick.

Milkshakes? I get sick.

Slushies(Coke, Cherry, Blue Raspberry)? I don't get sick.

Soda? I don't get sick.

Fish? I don't get sick.

Baked Chicken made w/Buttermilk? I get sick.

Rice Pudding? I get sick.

The big problem here is that I do not like any of the milk alternatives as they are disgusting. They are all even more expensive than how expensive regular milk itself is. I do like Skim Milk but that shit costs an arm and a leg.

I now have to take digestive supplements for dairy if I eat something with dairy in it...

I have RAD(Reactive Airway Disease), cuz doctors aren't sure if the symptoms count as Asthma yet or not, and mistook a lot of my issues for that because if I eat or drink anything cold or get hit in the face with sudden gusts of anything, it's like I'm thrown into an Asthma Attack. A long time ago, I just accepted that if I wanna have anything cold, or be outside in the cold or windy weather, that's just gonna be something that happens, and I'm probably going to cough my lungs out. It took a while for me to realize that RAD doesn't give you stomach cramps and diarrhea and horrible, sharp pains inside.

The weird thing is, like, I was at the doctor, and you know how they put the thing on your back, and they tell you to breathe deeply so they can listen to how your lungs are(I got a full 100% when I got my thing back). There was even a note about how good my breathing was at first. But right after doing that, I had been forced to wait for a bit as they entered info into the computer, and I went and got myself a little bit of cold water from the tap and proceeded to hack up a lung right afterward which drew immediate concern.

btw a drink being cold will NOT stop be from having it no matter how much my lungs protest afterward. Food having dairy in it MIGHT stop me though so, RIP.

So, yeah. That's what's going on rn.

posting a lot today but idrc. im having fun.

i also made these. i actually made the tcw one a while back but on shitty string, just replaced it with stretch cord.

i got the materials cheap from joannes (rip) as well as several colors of fleece i'm excited to use for plush projects. it feels so nice to be excited about something creative again, however small it might be.

personal ramblings under cut (mentions of needles, medical context, talk of bloodwork and such, medications)

fun fact: that little dot on the back of my hand is from the iv. my other arm is all bruised up from the previous one and multiple failed attempts. ive actually had to have blood drawn/and iv placed 4 times (i think?) in the past 2 weeks, not counting the individual pokes each time. mostly from the gallbladder situation, but i also had my hrt checkup in the middle of all that. good thing i'm used to needles. still hurts, but it's not scary. i used to be terrified bc of a really bad experience, but literally every time since, regardless of pain and struggle, has been great in terms of the people doing it. that first time i think they were just inexperienced and kinda aggressive and i was already rlly scared (16 and had never had bloodwork) so it was kinda traumatic. but now i'm not ever nervous about it anymore. maybe a little about them being able to get it (ive had to be sent to other labs bc the staff just couldn't get my veins) but that's it. also, i found out it is, in fact, genetic. from my father. knew it wasn't my mom's side bc both she and my brother have "pipes" as she call them (she's a certified phlebotomist so she'd know). idk why he never mentioned it before since ive told him abt my issues, but im not surprised.

and for once i have all my prescriptions in order. ive had trouble with shipping (fuck that noise, i went back to the physical pharmacy) and insurance, but this time, i have all my shit. i was worried abt having to pay extra for the lexapro bc of an insurance denial, but ig they changed their mind? and with everything going on rn i was also worried abt hrt, but that seems to also be fine. probably helps that the pharmacist is also a trans guy (what a neat coincidence, and also lucky bc that means no bs denials). i think he did my covid shot? cool guy. and the weird "state policy" shit with the ritalin seems to be over, too. which, i can live without it, but having it is a big help. and, after being lost for like a month in transit, i did eventually get that lost bottle of lexapro. which leaves me with an emergeny supply. super glad abt that bc withdrawals are legit one of the worst feelings ive ever had, next to the gallbladder pain (apparently they say its comparable to labor pains? thats wild but tbh i dont doubt it. that shit was insane. im so glad i dont have to deal with that anymore).

well. didnt mean to write a whole essay there, but i actually think this is good for me. like a journal. maybe ill make a tag just for the ramblings, so folks can filter if need be, bc i actually think im gonna keep it up. its kinda fun. never wanted to do physical journaling bc i hate writing tbh, and my handwriting sucks. plus it always seemed like a chore, since its like a scheduled everyday thing usually. didnt appeal to me. but this is nice actually, getting my thoughts out. ok thats all for now. if u read this you're cool. have a nice day, or if u cant, hang in there.

my personal-level annoyance with the project moon implosion (this is underneath the feminism/incel higher-level offenses) is that i have been getting a lot of catharsis out of a public-library of ruina AU. it is one of the easiest ways to get across the current reality of urban public libraries that i've devised. picture library of ruina with a customer service focus and you're like 80% there. for the remaining 20%, consider that the public library is (even in small-c cities) one of the last public spaces that exists, part of the dwindling social safety net, and has a mandate to do its utmost to help people find information. forget that candy-ass invite-only closed-stacks bullshit. public LOR Angela doesn't get that pacing and privacy and contextualization. p-LOR Angela has three kids asking for an anatomy textbook at the front desk (they're arguing with their dealer whether this is a mutated gallbladder or a spleen, v important for pricing), a desperate family trying to fill out nest application forms to the right (ironic how the captcha seems to only be completable by AI, how is anyone supposed to get through??), enkephalin addicts in the washroom (and now netzach is explaining to them that it's 80% hand sanitizer and their dealer ripped them off), and someone's starting a mariachi contest in the reading room. furthermore, until roland comes around, and honestly even after that, she doesn't even know why. welcome to the library.
