@sundyst I would do anything for your family!!

[Danielle @bugaboo562]

@theshums LOVE IT!!! AND YOU!!!

[Danielle @bugaboo562]

Like I won’t be believed if I say where my pains at. Also gotta love that I don’t react to pain in the same way.

[Danielle @bugaboo562]

The amount of pain I’m in after both pain meds is ridiculous. Seriously like I felt more pressure in my pelvis until they did the ultrasound yesterday and know I’m in pain and want to cry. I just don’t want to bug my nurse because it’s close to shift change and I’ve called so

[Danielle @bugaboo562]

Much tonight because the doctor yesterday encouraged me not to use one of my pain meds and I tried going without it for 10hrs and now we’ve been chasing pain and have only gotten like four hours of sleep. Also you know the past four months of medical gaslighting makes me feel

[Danielle @bugaboo562]

Like I appreciate he’s been patient the last couple of months but apparently it’s just another person in my life who doesn’t understand how hard I’m fighting.

[Danielle @bugaboo562]

Gotta love when your father says you are not doing enough to get out of the situation your in even though you are applying for jobs and still asking for job recommendations while you’ve literally been at the doctors everyday this week trying to figure out what your body is doing.

[Danielle @bugaboo562]

And then says your insurance isn’t gonna cut immediately if you can’t pay your premium and also maybe I don’t need so much insurance coverage. And then follows it up with asking if Ilooked into working for a company he hated working for.

[Danielle @bugaboo562]

I just wished I had listened to my body sooner and didn’t let myself get gaslit for months by a GI doctor who wasn’t will to fight for or with me. And was more concerned about things being his idea.

[Danielle @bugaboo562]

Gotta love those night where you start into the abyss willing the heavens to fix your broken body.

Reality I’m just tired. I wish I was at the point I am now a few months ago. But my white male doctor kept saying it was nothing. Met with a new female doctor and she listened.

[Danielle @bugaboo562]

And unfortunately dealing with some of the doctors I’ve dealt with on this #chronicillness journey have left my body exhausted and hurting with my new team of doctors to clean up. Along with the mental and emotional damage that has come along with the medical trauma

[Danielle @bugaboo562]

@DarcieNaslund I love that you did this!! My mom fought MS for 24 years. It always gives me hope seeing other warriors fighting and creating community! MS SUCKS and through my mom fighting the disease it gave me a whole new community to support and fight with and for!

[Danielle @bugaboo562]

Love. Seriously they show staff at their kids school more love then they show me their own family. Never have a felt more like an unclean piece of garbage.

[Danielle @bugaboo562]

It’s kinda funny when you realize someone who’s been in your life since you were six cares more about their carpet than the medical device that keeps you alive.

[Danielle @bugaboo562]

They think this whole thing is attention seeking. It’s apparently another way I found to be “sick” and there’s really something going on and most chronic illnesses aren’t solved in one hospital stay and all bodies react differently. Why can’t they do what they preach and just

[Danielle @bugaboo562]

It’s not like my physical, emotional, and mental health rely on me getting adequate sleep or rest.

[Danielle @bugaboo562]

Ahhhh the trauma of everything I went through with my friend yesterday has now settled into and become friends with other traumas making it virtual impossible to close my eyes with seeing horribly scary things that I witnessed last night or fall asleep. That’s cool I guess…..

[Danielle @bugaboo562]

@MooseofHyrule @theshums Oohhh me too.

[Danielle @bugaboo562]

@theshums I love you Layton. Glad to have you in my family!!
