Time to get our own National Action Plan in Canada!

Covid is flaring my neuropathy but don’t have a clear diagnosis of neuropathy so going into emerg would be just a whirlwind of questions that I shouldn’t be the one to answer. #chronicillnesslife #makingitupaswego ✌🏽

How a neurologist thought he'd help me by sending me a psych website link. crampmystyleblog.com/2022/01/20/whe…

I told him about walking with a cane, insane lower back pain, complete bowel dysmotility for over a year, severe stasis in the colon plus a rectocele. Neurologist suggested psychotherapy. Medical gaslighting at its finest. This will not do my friends.

Met with neuro who said dysmotility was a GI thing. Spoke to GI and confirmed dysmotility and will proceed with rectal muscle testing but said ‘in order to confirm if muscle inactivity is due to lack of nerve innovation to check with neuro. 🤦🏽‍♀️ #ChronicPain

Adding #unwellwomen by @elinorcleghorn to my top ten list of books. Devouring it. In a perfect world I would offer this book to each of my patients.

I will forever have respect for anyone who has an #ulcer. That shite hurts!

Words cannot express how deeply connected I feel to Gabrielle Drolet after reading her poignant piece about chronic pain in Chatelaine (and am honored for the mention). Chronic pain is real!

It’s unfortunate - Callum from Spence Diamond makes me change the channel, NOT buy a diamond. #spencediamond #marketingfail

Strep and Covid at the same time is really an unfortunate combo. Yes, yes I am immunocompromised

The man who nearly raped me was married, white and high powered. If I got pregnant would he be accountable? No. They tried to hide it as it was. Imagine. No access to abortion, raising a child out of hate. That’s what this is now.

Why don’t people write on their hands anymore? #FoodForThought my hands used to be covered in ink

Dear Planet Fitness ‘low E’ is actually a real thing. Some may call it chronic fatigue syndrome and others may not have a proper cause of their low E. In this day and age your ad for a cure is ableist and quite insensitive. I ask you to please take it off the air. ~spoonies

Day 3 of my #interstim trial and whoever says this isn’t supposed to hurt is a liar. Tolerable and worth it but painful. Also the tape is giving me blisters. Food for thought Medtronic Canada - pain meds and new tape.

Always feels like #impostersyndrome when my inbox fills with applicants
