Ontario healthcare is complete trash

My sibling has a respiratory illness cannot find APCR Covid test in Ottawa despite the doctor ordering it. The labs say they've stopped doing it

He was only offered a rapid test & Told the labs ran out of supplies ages ago

OMG I really am the princess from Princess and the pea

I tweezed a single hair from a spot I didn't like it & my whole body has suddenly relaxed

What even is my life?

Call me crazy (no please really do! )
But I think a country that can afford nuclear weapons can afford free ambulance services for every single person present here & none of this billing people for Basic services prep

[food, medical diet]
Concept:
And actually useful AI tool that takes in existing info about food reactions a person has as well as medical conditions & tries to find commonalties & so just alternatives to try

Similar tool for drug reactions as well both clinicians and patients

[food] IDK what stage of MCAS grief this is but starting to get sentimental about losing safe foods. Today, I lost lettuce which has been my friend for several weeks & Life feels strangely empty without it

Tried EMDR for the first time today and it was intense enough that I got super hungry halfway through the appointment and had to stop because my brain was exhausted. The good news is the therapist says that means it was working?

My fave part about gatekeeping of accessibility is assumption that disabled people are clamouring for clunky/inefficient/Drab things/processes period sure the curb cut effect exists but it has limits.
