Yeah @NatureLover i was diagnosed with fibromyalgia when my D was 6mths old. My body was in constant pain. The rheumatologist that I seen prescribed me medication, but upon going to the chemist to get the script filled realised that I couldn’t take it cause I was still nursing my daughter. So I have a diagnosis but no available treatment. It’s pretty mild now. I just try and manage it myself. It’s good to keep my body active. Sleep is really important. Fibro folks don’t generally cope well with heat. There’s all sorts of symptoms but I just try deal with them when they hit.
my psych appointment went ok. I was pretty sleepy though, I explained to her that yesterday was too hard and I took an extra prn. So we sat and backtracked the last few days. It was helpful as it gave me the opportunity to talk about the change in my med delivery. The lack of support I’ve had this whole time while my meds have been delievered. (I was seeing my CM twice weekly prior to that and then the delivery of my meds basically replaced my visits with my CM, but the majority of the time it was randoms who exchanged meds and left. So no real support). She could understand how that is a decrease in support. She heard my concerns about weekly med deliveries and I told her my pdoc didn’t want any changed until we get through this trauma annivsary.
I told her I am no confident with getting through this period of time and not sure I can maintain my safety.
I did have a phone call from my SW who had spoken to my CM yesterday, apparently the team feel I am ready to trial weekly meds. Plus apparently I can’t ood on a week of meds. Urgh. What the hell would she know???? Seriously. She makes me so fuck!ng mad. She knows nothing. Nothing of what I could be capable if desperate…. Which I am chronically tethered on that now.
I was suppose to go see my gp today. SW and psychologist told me to go re: sh and other things from last night. But I chose not to go.
