Updating my pinned 🧵 :

I'm not active on Twitter anymore, so I'm rebuilding the #migraine and #MigraineChat community here. A few ways to connect....

The original MigraineChat feed stopped working, so like and pin this one. It works the same.
Having pain- and energy-limiting chronic illnesses is really boring.

There are far too many commercials in Olympics coverage.

Ah, yes. The Finnish team that is recovering from norovirus. Good luck USA women, in more ways than one.

Telehealth flexibilities for Medicare are extended until Dec. 31, 2027. As many of you were able to express to elected officials, telemedicine is a crucial service for our community.

We will continue to advocate to make telehealth expansions PERMANENT! www.meaction.net/post/more-gr...

I do not want to wait a whole week to find out what happens to [redacted character] on #ThePitt.

I've been trying to straighten out a medical bill that insurance should've covered. Between calling my insurance and hospital billing, I've probably spoken to six people and four were clearly sick, sniffling constantly into the phone. Mask up, folks. 😷🦠

I know it's only February but I learned my lesson and ordered some summery clothes now.

Every year I forget that ~80% of the country warms up before Vermont, shops for warm weather outfits earlier, and my sizes sell out.

5:15p, the sky is still a bit light, horizon a little pink. I'll give that one win to February.

#MigraineChat if you've updated your iPhone to the recent software, any workarounds or rollbacks to some of the more triggering changes? Let OP know 👇🏻
The update iPhone had that added the transparency and 3D effect to my screen made video/reels flicker so I can’t spend much time online anymore. That’s the only thing I can think of that is different.

Seeking advice re: preventative medicine for #migraine I don’t want an antidepressant as I am now battling hormonal weight gain. Botox is delayed as my Dr has been injured and I’m finding that I am using my Zomig more frequently with our weird Winter. Any ideas? @migrainechat.bsky.social

My head hurts so fkn much and I'm not supposed to take any NSAIDs until my endoscopy, so shouldn't use my IM toradol. Nothing else has worked.

Furnace decided to crap out overnight. Getting a tad chilly. Hoping they can send someone. Also hoping they're still willing to mask.

There's a massive food recall (including Cheerios, how I found out) yet the only news article I can find about it is on People dot com. What is going on?

Thinking of all the chronically ill and disabled people being grabbed off the streets and denied their medications. This is what happens.

Fuck ICE.

I'm not sure. Are the conditions in Denver bad? They haven't mentioned it 94 times.
