Today I'm thankful for modern medicine that can help my body realize my intestinal tract is actually still important and useful and not and enemy that needs to be constantly attacked.
There a lot wrong with American healthcare, but for this part of if (and that I can actually access it), I'm grateful.
I give myself a shot thing for #crohns about every eight weeks. It's not a big deal, really. And the meds work.
So I use a sharps container. Fine, pharmacy (or someone in the great cacophany of folks involved) provided me one. Today's dose filled it up.
The container had a number to call about getting a box to recycle them. I called it. It was the manufacturer's assistance program. Fine.
Spent 10 minutes updating all of my information with them. Then the agent says, "Oh, we don't take those in any more."
🙄
You could have saved me ten minutes when the first words I said were "sharps container".
After several months of mega-dosing Vitamin D3, I’m finally feeling more energetic! My spoon allotment has doubled! I’m curious to see what my vitamin D levels are next time I have them tested.
Background: Last year, I finally went to a hematologist to try to sort out my fatigue, after my GI doctor told me to “eat more spinach”. Really??? You are telling a #Crohns patient with absorption issues to eat more roughage? Anyway, she sorted out my iron and B-12, and I started #hrt for #perimenopause . That helped but I think the final piece is the Vitamin D. A “normal” dose wasn’t doing anything, so I’ve been taking 30,000 IU daily for several months. It takes a long time to raise levels. I’m hoping I will continue to feel better as I head into winter! 🤞

The need to organize everything and have utter control over as much as possible in order to NOT feel hopeless with my #migraines #POTS & #Crohns totally wears me out.
But hey, better than drinking until the anxiety disappears like I used to.
