Documenting my chronic illness journey!
Main acc: @rebelbagel.bsky.social
FINALLY it's October, the month of important specialist appointments. I have my long-awaited endoscopy/colonoscopy next Friday and an FMD test at the hospital the following Monday. Then I see my neurologist for the first time on the 29. He's the best in the state!

Currently sitting by the toilet at 3:22am praying I don't throw up my meds. I need sleep so badly.

At least once a week, I have to take 2 laxatives instead of 1 daily bc that's the only time I'll poop. I even take stool softeners twice a day. If I go up to 2 laxatives daily, it's straight liquid. There's no in-between. My doctors literally don't know what to do it's sad.

Pushed myself way to far this weekend on vacation so ofc I'm in a flare again. All I want to do is sleep but I'm up for 2nd night in a row with severe acid reflux/stomach pain.

I really just want a break from this crap.

I can't explain it but NOTHING has been right lately. My cardiologist started me on a steroid, and I've been having symptoms I don't usually experience very often. Not sure if they're connected though.

I'm so sick of this shit.

Just because I am up and doing stuff doesn't mean I'm not in constant pain/discomfort. It doesn't just go away sometimes, it's CHRONIC.

It's currently 4:25am and I had to stay over my best friend's house after the trip back home bc it was too late for me to drive. After being sick to my stomach the whole ride back, I thought I'd get a reprieve but lol nope! Sick to my stomach again. 😖

Unsurprisingly, the trip back home was brutal. Was very nauseous 2hrs in and had to pull over. Been hopping rest stops every 30 miles to rest and hydrate. Passed out in the last stop and it was super embarrassing. I can't wait to be home 😵‍💫

If anyone was wondering what my heart rate looks like after the first 95+ degree day of summer....

My body: Hey remember how last night I kept you up until 6am because nausea?
Me: Yes
My body: Wanna do it again?

I haven't been able to fall asleep until 4 or 5am as of late and it's been mucking up my whole schedule. I can't tell if it's just insomnia or ADHD or both.

Was gonna go to bed around 4am (stayed up playing a game with friends) but my nausea had other plans 😮‍💨

Ive been doing things around the house and going out a lot more this past week and it finally caught up to me today. Slept until 3pm, passed out twice, and couldn't finish washing dishes. I'm so thankful for my Fiance was there to catch me (literally) tonight 🧡

As it turns out, I'm 1000% allergic to medical grade adhesive. This rash on my chest is probably the worst reaction I've ever gotten.
Been putting hydrocortisone cream on it praying it gets better! 🤞

So I had to take off my heart monitor completely and have been advised to return it. My skin for some reason reacted horribly to all the medical adhesive, including the hypoallergenic strips! Left photo was last night, the right was today.

Second time around with this heart monitor. In the three days I've had it, I've replaced the strip that holds the monitor twice bc of "poor skin contact". I can't wait until these 7 days are over!

Had a pretty severe mental breakdown yesterday. I walked almost to the local highway with the intent to end my life. But I got really dizzy halfway there and ended up sitting down in the woods to contemplate life.

I don't know where to go from here honestly.

I went from being the reliable friend that always drove my friends places, went out doing things every week and such to the friend that barely leaves their house and my gods is that fucking me up right now.

My favorite part of having a chronic illness and being a woman is that being on my period makes all my symptoms 10000% worse! 🙃
