packing done, need to dismantle table and pack up my pc but shall do that early morning. sent a couple msgs to the airtasker dude to confirm the pick up tomorrow but no response and that's stressing me out :<
worst case, will ask a friend to get a van from bunnings (?) and help me move. gosh moving is so stressful!
Edit: dude replied, we're on!
Damn FRL, is it happening or is it not, what a shambles. I'm gonna guess their usual council contact has changed and they've fucked up the permit application with no Mr Niceguy to smooth things over.
Finished my Jane Eyre (2006) rewatch, now to not let myself watch everything Ruth Wilson has ever done (again), that woman is insane.
Honestly, the chemistry in the 2006 version is absolutely off tits, and for that reason alone it will always be my favourite adaptation of Jane Eyre.
Hey... just throwing it out there. Is it possible to miss being diagnosed with something like Crohns even after seeing specialists for many years and finally getting thrown in the too hard basket?
Did anyone else in this situation ever get an answer?
It has all the hallmarks of being a disease that is easy for a doctor to fuck up:
- Affects different people in very different ways.
- No objective biomarker.
- Diagnosed by exclusion.
It's always easy to miss things! I have a heart defect that was missed for years because it was constantly fobbed off as anxiety. It wasn't until I started seeing a nurse for something unrelated did someone genuinely start to question what was going on.
Turns out my heart isn't overzealous because I'm anxious, it's because it's making up for that fact it's got some issues it's trying to constantly correct on its own.
I would like to think 'not anymore' but anything is possible. And something like Crohn's can affect any part of your digestive tract and be mild to severe. So .. yeah maybe? Depends what's been tested/considered. I dont know how Crohn's specifically is diagnosed (but have history and relationships with people with similar hard to ID issues). My advice is gather your evidence and find a doctor who will listen and problem solve with you. It's hard but they do exist
