#luckily no pain tho. so

My doctor: Hey yeah that's not normal I don't think it's an issue with your hip

Me: Oh?

My doctor: It's an issue with your spine

Me: OH

#Literally the first thing he said was 'You shouldn't be in this much pain from a labrum tear' #'Yeah I'm p sure it has to do with your back' #Me: Everything makes sense now...... #This actually adds up bc I've always had shitty back issues. Lmao #Luckily I don't need surgery!! Unluckily I need to get another MRI! Kill me! :) #If the last MRI didn't bankrupt me this one DEFINITELY will #Also he did say I have a weak hip so I gotta do physical therapy #We'll see how that goes;; #Right now I'm fine bc I haven't even been billed for the first MRI yet. But I know as soon as I get the bill #I will be a HOT mess #Not looking forward to that #Anyway I'm glad this doctor seems to know what he's talking about. And from the get go too #Can't believe it took this fucking long to narrow it down to 'possible spine/back issue' tho #Godddd. I'm so tired #He prescribed me some heavy anti-inflammatory drugs so hopefully that helps with the pain a bit #Lies down #I need a nap bro. Lol #Shima speaks

More weirdness my sleep app caught (￣(工)￣) I’m exhausted after yesterday’s market and sleep was body pain and nightmares LOLOLOL

#I sliced part of my foot open a couple days ago and basically took off the entire bottom layer of skin #I’ve done it before when I fell on rocks in Japan so I’m used to it #the mad sciatica and back/hip pain on my right from having to compensate for my left is nuts tho #luckily the skin(?) beneath the peel of my foot has finally hardened so no more stinging #it’s like half the size of a bottle cap. the damage I did in Japan was like a silver dollar pancake haha

[peridyke]

Fevers are cool except when they happen to me

#not snz #i am suffering tho #me and a couple of the coworkers went to get the new vaccines at lunch #were we all slightly in pain for the rest of the day? yes #was it worth it? also yes #but god it was miserable a few hours in #I'm used to being able to take pain meds when i get a headache but Not This Time #luckily i didn't have to drive myself home lmao #hate my coworkers (affectionate) they hit all of us in the arm bc they thought it was hilarious #i did get my forehead felt while i was sitting on the ground tho bc i 'looked flushed' so that did something to me #anyway I'm home now so at least i just get to lay on my bed and pass away lmao #can't tell if I'm normal sore or fever sore tho so we've got an ice pack and a heating pad at the same time #something has to work lmao

i think ichi would still go into work while suffering from *gameritis and hes so brave for that he's so committed

#snap chats #*aka playing videogames too much to the point of his wrist hurting from pushing the buttons so much #aka. me LMAOO OWWW OWIE OUCH VIDEOGAMES ARE SUPPOSED TO BE FUN NOT PAIN #the alternative is him calling arakawa at like 8AM in pain and shit all 'boss... im real sorry... i wont be able to make it today...' #and then instead of ichi like. Dying it's just cause dragon quest 6 came out and he binged all of it over the weekend #CRYING at the thought arakawa keeping up with videogame releases just to know when to esp look after ichi #like Hey Totally Unrelated Don't Think About It But I Got Someone To Cover You This Weekend.... that kinda b ☠️☠️ #and then its like Oh Wow New Game Coming Out Friday What Luck :))) ☠️☠️☠️ #sometimes he'll put his foot down dont worry.... theres SOME limits to how lenient arakawa can be.... #n e way. i cant feel my thumb and my tendon feels funky.. so i am no longer playing games and i am Doing My Job.... #luckily my drawing wrist isnt affected but still.. lmao.. #im almost done with the sketches for them so then i can just send those off to my commissioners and then ima do a quick lil doodle #either that or ill sketch a comic... tho whenever i do that i end up never doing them.. #might convert it to a fic but anyway back to work

there’s so much i wanna do this week/month/etc but i’m just too sick, i have no energy, i can’t sleep, i’m constantly nauseous and headachey and on the verge of a migraine, i’m stressed and irritable and impatient and panicky…….how tf did i survive nearly 5 years of high school untreated if i can’t even manage this when i don’t have any major obligations rn

#at least i finally got my meds so hopefully i feel a little better soon #although i’m now on 20 pills per day which is Just Great #whenever i’m in remission it’s nice to just. forget sometimes that this can happen at any time #kinda wish i had the typical kinda chronic illness that people talk about with ‘flares’ #or at least triggers that i can plan around #the other times have all had an easily identifiable stressor tho tbf. idk what caused this one #the first time was whooping cough and the next few were all very major life stressors like my cat dying right after i started uni #and i think also towards the end of my honours thesis? #but this…….there’s no major stress right now. nothing wildly beyond normal #i’m a little concerned about my joints tho. they’ve been so much worse than normal the last few months #so i’m kinda worried i’m developing rheumatoid arthritis (also an autoimmune disease and it runs in the family specifically) #so if that’s happening then it could set my thyroid off? probably should get to the doctor at some point #obv i’m seeing my endo for thyroid stuff. but i should see my gp and get her to run all the autoimmune blood tests again #i’ve done that before but it’s been a few years and my ankles and knees are so painful i can’t even walk properly a lot of the time #BUT I JUST WANNA DO THINGS I ENJOY AND I CANT AND I WILL CONTINUE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT IT #‘oh you’re so lucky you don’t have as many obligations because you’re chronically ill’ ha ha ha please swap lives with me immediately #personal #but seriously. i wasn’t diagnosed until i was nearly 17 and we can trace it back to whooping cough when i was 12 #so it was the last half of year 6 and then all of years 7-10 and the start of year 11 of just being. uh. ‘very lazy and complaining a lot’ #and TEACHERS joking about me and my sister (who was dealing with an arguably more severe undiagnosed disease) missing so many classes #wow so funny pdhpe teacher who’s supposed to be teaching is about health #and the thing with being a mentally ill teenager is that hyperthyroidism can just look like a very severe anxiety disorder #so i didn’t go to the dr until i was too sick to go to school at all. and luckily had a good dr who did a blood test #i’m just rambling now because i can’t sleep and i don’t wanna lie here doing nothing #might go play pvz or something. that’s been keeping me entertained

[bawnjourno]

stayed up til 2am last night making these chai sugar cookies w eggnog icing and these lemon cheesecake cookies and they’re both divine btw

#food tw #this has been a text post #i’ve made the tswift cookies a couple times and they’re always a hit (you’ve gotta double the eggnog in the icing so it’s spreadable tho) #but the lemon cookies were a gamble that luckily paid off! #zesting lemons is a pain in the dick but i took a bite and almost busted a nut so worth it

i love handsewing but man this would be 100 times easier if i actually had a machine.

#ive been at this lil sack for two hours and its not even done. if i had a machine it wouldve taken 30 mins. MAX. probably not even. #some things you sew just for the fun of it but this like. has an actual use. i kinda need this done. #im making a lil thingy to put train-check-in-card-thingie in =w=bb #its a pain. #i couldve probably asked to use my grandma's machine but 1) anxiety 2) shes on vacation i think 3) id have to learn how to first. #i think learning would be fairly easy especially since this is just some straight connective borders but :/ ya never know. #also. im not using sewing pins. im holding everything together with prayers and two magnets. its not really that hard luckily but. #i really am just making it 10x harder for myself. #to get the fabric flat i ironed it but i didnt wanna get the ironingboard so i just did it on the floor. which isnt good either probably. #oh yeah also i used a frozen pizza cardboard box as structure. which is still a bit visible through the fabric aswell. just a bit. #in conclusion: this all is a mess and probably the least efficient way but :p we ball. #its cute & yellow <3 #yay #anyway i really hope it works through the cardboard bc otherwise this'd all been for nothing. #ig i could take out one of the cardboard sides if i really need to. #its almost finished tho!!! only need to do a lil flap and the button. #these will also be done in incredibly inefficient ways but !!!! OH WELL. #im just glad i dont have to spend 10 bucks for the same thing ig <3 /hj #sillyposting

Hm. Not sure what I got but it sure is starting to kick my ass

#:/ #I tested negative but considering the other two tested positive I'mma go ahead and give that a pinch of salt #Yesterday and earlier today were pretty okay - slight gravely throat tiny bit of pain in the jaw behind the ears #Now swallowing water is painful and I can't leave me cocoon lest the shivers and shakes take me #No fun :/ #Luckily the queue's good to go for the next little while - and hey I did manage to draw today! Earlier! Beforehand #So I might be taking a little extra time off - not that that's unusual lol ♪ #On a completely separate note I've been playing with Character.AI for the past Several and wow - Fun :0 #I was around at the beginning of Cleverbot so this just blows my mind - an AI that says ''I meant'' and rephrases a question?? What??? #Starting to get a little repetitive the more I play with this one in particular but hey - good infodumping region lol #I also tried a Pokemon one but it was So Uncanny lol - all the AI generated pictures and my starter is just a little too clingy for me #It's been interesting tho - good way to take my mind off the owies lol

So there's been news floating around that tumblr is "dying" since it's going to be run by a skeleton crew. I highly highly doubt that it's going to actually die out (bc every time we hear about tumblr dying it comes crawling back. Like a cockroach.), but just in case, if you all ever need to find me elsewhere, the other place I post my art is on Instagram :)

#If tumblr actually does die you will find me here. Going down with the ship #I started here and I'll end here. #Shima speaks #Anyway I am SO fucking sore today and I'm so over it. My body feels like a pretzel. #Luckily most of my initial symptoms have gone away. I don't get flare ups anymore #And the pain in my leg is like. Gone now #I'M JUST SORE ALL THE TIME NOW. APPARENTLY. #My back feels super bruised even tho I haven't DONE ANYTHING #GIRL!!! RELAX!!!!

actually no sarcasm it didn’t ruin me, but like it freaked me out for awhile lol that was the most pain i’ve ever been in Ever and it felt like it was ruining me in the moment haha

#i’m being such a baby about this even a year ago today but tbh i do not care <3 #it was awful #idk why i’m being so dramatic about my kidney stone y’all i’m so sorry #i just know that it was a year ago today because i remember throwing up in the hospital bed and at this point it was theo’s birthday in his #time zone and not mine and all i could think about was how i was like ‘imma text you happy birthday as soon as it’s midnight for you and i’m #going to try my best to make you feel appreciated and loved today!!!’ and then i was in the er all day and Didn’t do that didbksbsksbsjd #anyways this just goes to show that i have Very normal feelings about having a kidney stone:)))))))) #luckily my roommates were very nice and one drove me to the er and actually stayed with me for a couple hours like skipped class and #everything and like grace picked me up pretty early in the morning because that’s when they released me and i just wanted to go lay in bed 😂 #although actually the first thing i did was do homework which was prolly a bad move but wait no i emailed all my teachers because i missed #two days of school (i took the next day off to recover since i slept like crap and pain also lol) and then homework and then sleep #actually my sister came to make sure i was okay on her way to class - very nice of her #wow now i’m just reminiscing as i procrastinate sleep hm #but actually tho idk why i’m making such a big deal out of this lol idk it was just. a day haha

[kingtankgirl]

[maraeffect]
