Feeling anxious today.

Not sure why im suddenly feeling anxious. I typically dont. My breathing excercises help alleviate it. But still somethings up.. Maybe its the fact that i have a meeting coming up and im feeling anti social today.

I've been diagnosed with Lupus Nephritis 3 months ago... And this week my condition flares up again. Does anyone understand this illness better?

Sometimes I feel like nobody understands this chronic auto-immune disease - as it's not very common we meet people who are suffering from SLE.

How much sawdust do you think you could put in a Rice Krispie treat before people start to notice?

this stress headaches gotta go🙁

my mum died VERY EXEXPECTEDLY with a massive stroke/brain annerysm in November 2017. It was quite confronting as my brother, dad and I sat with her fo

If this MRI scan does show anything serious, I'm gonna be Hella ticked off at the docs I've seen in the past

I been complaining about these headaches for years to different doctors and all I got was a blood test, a lecture about anxiety and an eye roll

I'm gonna be sick. My mom mixed canned tuna in with boxed mac and cheese and the smell is sickening

Feeling sick a vomiting last night…

GF: I’m four days late, maybe you’re experiencing morning sickness for me! Me: Let’s not consider worst case scenarios yet, maybe I’m just dying 🤭

Do you think medical insurance is a money-making scheme?

US medical insurance, the ultimate magic show! It's like they play hide and seek with coverage, offer deductibles taller than NBA players, and speak in insurance jargon that's harder to crack than secret codes. But here's the real kicker: Prior...

You know Covid caused mental trauma to healthcare workers when your co-workers are afraid of Covid getting worse again

I doubt Covid will get back to how it was in 2020 but listening to their stories of wearing N95 masks for 12 hours and dealing with dying patients daily is something.

I've had a doc appointment for 3 months, just put in to leave early that day and it got cancelled 🙄

Oh well, I'll just keep that half day, I need time off anyway. I scheduled two appointments in one day on purpose but they cancelled

Runny nose, sore throat 😫 😪 😩

Get lost play boy I'm finna shoot u in da head

wish they could find a cure for diabetes

i have type 2, and it's truly a bummer not being able to eat what i want...i have been managing it well over the years, but why can't a cure can be found? i get a big appetite but have to watch what i eat of course.

I don't think people are smart enough or sane enough or stable enough to handle any more Mask mandates...

So i think they should just try to influence people to wear them and if you harass anyone that is wearing one...BIG FINES! it is insane and un-American and inhuman to harass someone that wears a mask. What business is it to anyone else whether or not...

does your doctor still do call out visits

i remember in old times our gp would call out to your home if you were sick, i had the doctor call out many times when i was a boy and sick in bed, nowdays i don't think it's done so much, this era is so damned shitty, i can't believe it.

Another cousin gone😭

My gorgeous cousin Jay fell asleep today, loosing her battle with a brain tumour. She was just 53 years old. She had been battling lung cancer for a few years and had been responding well to treatment, but was told less than 6 months ago it had...

This storm is kicking my ass!

My arthritis is a good weather indicator. When a storm comes my shoulders and wrists really hurt. Thunderstorms have been rolling through. Beautiful but it hurts!

Almost died from low blood sugar while ago

I came home from work and was so sleepy I took a nap. Had my alarm set for 12:20am to get up and take my medicine and take a bath before bed. Well that didn't happen. I woke up having seizures and convulsions from extremely low blood sugar! I had...
