My deepest sympathies to the loved ones of #StephanieAston, whose far-too-soon passing illuminates how #WomensPain and #InvisibleIllness are dismissed by medical professionals the world around.
While I have a less lethal form of #EDS than Aston, I have experienced firsthand the shock, surprise, and denial that my symptoms elicit from providers. Without greater awareness about this rare disorder, more women will suffer and die.

On days like today, I’m fortunate I make my own hours at work. My #pain is absolutely debilitating and I’m stuck in bed.

Doch kein Kollege oder Freund sieht es oder kann es verstehen geschweige denn nachvollziehen.
Ich bin 6 Jahre lang falsch diagnostiziert worden. Ich habe vor 3 Wochen die richtige Diagnose erhalten. Vorher hieß es immer, es sei psychosomatisch.
Liebe Ärzte. Seid doch so gut und nehmt eure Patienten ernst und gräbt auch mal an ungewöhnlichen Stellen.

I'm loving that the #Libre app now auto updates BG readings every minute.
I didn't know how I'd do without 3rd party app's widgets but all good so far: just set alerts in the Libre app.
There is a bug with Android where 'do not disturb' disables high/low alarms, despite correct permissions being set in the app to override DND.

Why do I mask?
I stubbed my toe today and now that whole side of my body hurts. What do you think a cold does?

I've tried to find words for what it's like living w #chronicillness: the combination of fatigue & burnout to the guilt of feeling like a burden to everyone you know being an overwhelming place to exist. As I'm anxiously waiting for some lab/test results, I'm reminded of a story I wrote a couple years ago.

There's more I'd like to write but I'm out of space. Would love to know your thoughts 🖤🖤

I created this #angryuterus t-shirt using one of my pin designs, so I could help spread the word of #Endometriosis & #Adenomyosis
April is Adenomyosis Awareness Month, the lesser known sister illness to Endo.
Having an angry uterus is more than just difficult periods. It can be a debilitating illness and is definitely an invisible one.

Gearing up for April and some HUGE announcements.
I might be a legit world-class weakling because of disabling arthritis, but I promise I am one of the toughest chicks you'll ever know!

Hmmmm, most about me is in my profile. I live in #Canada. I have #InvisibleIllness, so I spend most of my time #online. I like a few games, and #nature, #historical, #supernatural, various #drag, and comic based shows.
My header pic is two goofy young cats, one brown tabby, the other white, and they’re cuddled together with their mouths open and tongues sideways, looking like they’re goofing off. My avatar pic is a long-haired tabby, wearing a brown toque and orange booties, sitting like a person.
