I am going to have a mental breakdown if they keep doing this stuff they can’t find out what is wrong with me 25 years multiple haemarrhages blood loss shock and every system impacted everything normal or non specific abnormal also #chronicillness #chronicpain #spoonie #spoonies
I had an appointment today the fatigue was so intense that just staying upright took energy so I did a first and called the hospital asked for a wheelchair and I’m very thankful that they could arrange that also #chronicillness #chronicpain #disabilitytwitter #spoonies
the PTSD flare and spoon depletion you get after GP appointments… #chronicillness #chronicpain #disabilitytwitter #spoonies
“you only had lightheadedness collapsed and had a seizure” ONLY?
“the immunologist refused the referral”
“the clinic refused the trial”

These are becoming weekly stories. It shows men drugging partners & inviting men to rape them isn't rare & is just another tool for men to seek male attention & violate women. But men will continue to lecture women to avoid leaving our homes & fear strangers.
Two Queensland men are facing charges after one of them allegedly drugged and raped his partner and invited the other man to violate her.
READ THE STORY HERE: australianfemicidewatch.org/…
there has been a lot of grasping at straws to defend the Cornell 7 and blameshift etc but this is amongst the most ridiculous defence, yes a high intoxicated person may do irrational things like this after being given more alcohol and drugs after they resisted initially also
Replying to @cwebbonline
So during said rape she did body building poses. Does every rape victim do bodybuilding poses between acts of rape?
dr: it’s all in your head
me: I had a haemorrhage
dr: oh that was different it was something else
me: what?
dr: weight
me:

I was told to call a mental health hotline for my recent medical trauma and I was couple minutes in the person said I’m going to stop you there it’s exhausting to just listen to, I completely mentally shut down after that also #chronicillness #chronicpain #mentalhealth #spoonies
tired of this
rapists deny it happened
if they can’t deny it they’ll claim that it was consensual
if that doesn’t work they blameshift the victim
if that doesn’t work they use mental health defence and their potential to advocate leniency
and the system enables then also
just got a $1254 ambulance bill one of 5 ambulance bills because of the Covid infection and them refusing to initially treat or admit me and they attempted to charge me $1400 for paxlovid the medical system is making a fortune on this… #covid #chronicillness #chronicpain #auspol

“Can I do it?” is a terrible measure of disability.
Yes, I can do it.
Can I do it repeatedly?
Can I do it safely?
Can I do it without support?
Can I do anything afterwards?
Can I do it tomorrow too?
What does doing it COST?
These tell me a lot more about my capability.
my specialist used the somatoform label again recently and my GP showed me the notes of all of the psychologically scapegoating meanwhile here’s proof of photos, scans, blood tests and scans of actual physical issues also #chronicillness #chronicpain #disasbilitytwitter #spoonies
my chronic illness journey
*organ removal complications*
“weight”
*haemorrhage*
*haemorrhage blood loss shock*
“weight”
*intense infection*
“anxiety”
*multi system conditions*
“somatoform”

um? these comments? and about dysautonomia being part psychological? I believe that my autonomic issues are from actual nerve damage as do my specialists you can’t improve actual nerve damage with mindset also

Stop judging people with chronic illnesses by how you think they should look or behave. Dr Amir Khan once again hits the nail on the head. #ME #chronicillness
I used to think
that the ER would take organ issues seriously
that the ER would take spinal issues seriously
that the ER would take a haemorrhage seriously
that the ER would take immune compromised with an intense infection seriously
I was wrong…
#chronicillness
my new haematologist did two tests and said that he may be done and he says this days after I had a covid infection and multiple bleeding episodes and not knowing what is causing the constant bleeding and haemorrhages also #chronicpain #chronicillness #disabilitytwitter #spoonies
“the system is actively withholding life-saving medications from vulnerable people strictly to cut costs”
“You were fighting for your life, and the system treated your survival as an expense line on a budget”
please IMPROVE PBS COVID ANTIVIRALS ACCESS @Mark_Butler_MP @AlboMP
my specialist literally said how did you get it (Covid a month ago) “you never go out anywhere?” and I’m like someone brought it in also #chronicillness #chronicpain #disabilitytwitter #spoonies
I got up for like a minute and the oxygen levels and heart rate dropped then I laid down the the heart rate more than doubled also #chronicillness #chronicpain #disabilitytwitter #spoonies
medical care should not only be for the privileged, tamiflu is $45 privately but paxlovid is $1400, to find that out during an active intense covid infection in the ER as a disabled immune compromised women being tested for blood cancer was abhorrent also @Mark_Butler_MP @AlboMP
