wish abled people would understand fluctuating disabilities more. i told my boss my knee was better today than friday and she's like "I'm glad it's slowly getting better" but it's not Getting Better, it's just having a good day (and tbh it's worse now than it was when I said that) and tomorrow it'll probably be unable to bear my weight again. like. stop thinking of these things as a straight line progression because they're not and I'm tired to having to explain every bad day like it's some bigass new problem when it's just. the nature of these things

my rheumatologist had me stop ibuprofen completely, after eating it daily for over a decade to survive. instead, she put me on sulindac. no nsaids allowed while taking it, so until it kicks in, no pain relief. at all.
obviously this killed me deader than dog doo, but i’ve been crawling out of my grave for two weeks. and, my god, it kind of…works?
i just vacuumed and no one breathing down my neck for inspections. and then cleaned out the vacuum. i became the vacuum cleaner. put up pictures for the first time since 2012. fixed stuff.
my everything still hurts but the howling void of just constant misery has dimmed down to like, a single annoying neighbor telling me how to do something (wrong) while i do it.
also my acid reflux that had me choking on barf at night has disappeared completely. if this keeps up i might get to quit a med for a change.

pinched nerve is SO unfair and annoying because? Great. half my wrist/hand is numb and i can't feel anything. EXCEPT for when i move wrong and it feels like i'm being stabbed. that's my one little treat. otherwise no sensation. ??????????

Post steroid/muscle relaxant course to reduce (??? I guess???) The symptoms in whatever the fuck has my arms twinging and aching has me now feeling like a big walking bruise.
I feel like I got sunburned under my skin. Like a bunch of toddlers trampled me in a bounce house. In deepest irony, the only parts that don't hurt are my knees, which weren't acting up when this started anyway but now they feel extra great. So bully for me I guess??????

i will say the pain scale with the descriptions is life-changing; it’s just that I frequently forget to refer to it when assigning my pain a number. going around thinking, “why am I complaining about this 3-4 level pain when i used to average around 7 daily” and then looking at the scale and seeing, “ok, this is closer to 5-6 level, definitionally” works wonders to reorient your perspective. (also, 3-4 isn’t particularly fun to cope with on a regular basis either)

I have thought about documenting all the emotional baggage on a forum that I have been carrying for almost 28 years of my life...maybe it will help me start brand new...
Everyone has their share of pain but here's mine and I won't exaggerate
1. The earliest form of pain I can remember is of feeling sad that I didn't have my papa on Christmas and that was when I was 7 years old. My papa left for Switzerland days to earn bread for us but I didn't know any better...My mother said that me crying on Christmas for my papa was painful for her.
2. The 2nd pain might trigger a lot of young girls or adults who have been through this. So please don't read if child molestation triggers you. I think I was 9-10 that was before I had my period and I was bleeding at 11. So yeah let's take 10. One my family's distant cousin came to stay at our house. It is paining in my chest to write this but I will continue. I might start crying any moment but I have to get this off my chest. I am having slight trouble breathing but that's okay. I am living well. So he was around 32 I guess and he tried to tell me not to wear panties under my skirt. I clearly objected. This was in the morning. Well I don't know why my mom never suspected and when I said my mom in the evening that he is touching my face. She didn't believe and said "he's just playing". I thought maybe or maybe he is just comforting me because all kids like to be coddled. But when the night came my mom put me in between him and my mom while sleeping. Dont know why it never struck her that I needed to be protected from even cousins. He started touching my bare chest and I hadn't developed any boobs (I became size 38 D at 21). He touched my butt and thighs and tried to get his fingers inside my panties but I was always getting up in those moments asking my mom to take me to the bathroom. This went on for 4 hours and at last my mom scolded me for waking up so many times. She started hugging me and that's when all this stopped. I told her all this when I became an adult and she didn't have much reaction. Why are parents like this? I will surely protect my child if needed from her father as well. You know why I believe in God? Because this man of 32 became a cripple overnight, got married but got divorced and guess what he has no children cuz pedos don't deserve them angels...owing to this I developed a very high libido in my young teens and adulthood and it screwed me up a lot in mind which is why I behave like 42 at 27
I will come up with more
Please avoid reading if you don't like getting triggered

i am wary of things that brand themselves as "this is what's most natural for the human body", bc i have what i'm branding Disabled Cynicism, aka a general sense of doubt brought on by the profound knowledge that my body quite regularly fucks things up without any interference from me and probably can't be trusted to know what's best for it. i'm thinking 'barefoot shoes' and similar. "your body does X naturally, why interfere with that" well my hip also naturally pops itself out of the socket for funsies and my immune system tries to kill itself when i eat bread but that doesn't mean those are good things

one thing about constant low-level pain is that it won't ruin everything but it will make you utterly miserable and want to complain all the time

So I'm running on twice the normal amount of painkillers. Half of my face is still in pain, albeit less so than before. The other half is partially numb. Which is true for the rest of my body it seems. I'm trying to eat a banana and it's weird as fuck ✌🏻
