  1. This is very interesting. I've always believed that fibro was auto-immune. There's some evidence worth considering that that might actually be the case.

  2. I saw my new electrophysiologist today. He looked at my AFib records and listened to my concerns about the blood thinner. He agreed with me, and took me off of the blood thinner. "It's just not justified with your numbers."

  3. I'm on prednisone right now for a gout flare. Prednisone insomnia has arrived. Luckily it's only 3 more days. 🤷‍♀️

    I also am on Albuterol inhaler for what has been diagnosed as viral bronchitis. So all the steroids. Fun times. Been awake since about 1:45 am and sleep is nowhere near. It's almost 4 am now. I imagine there will be a nap later.

  4. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Administrator Mehmet Oz defended President Trump’s “big, beautiful bill” over criticism that millions of people could lose health coverage, saying those who would face new work requirements should “prove that you matter.”

  5. I've spent the last few days *not* wearing my compression socks. I didn't think they were doing anything for my #POTS because it was still occurring, though less frequently. This morning, I discovered that was not a good idea. I woke up to find my ankles *very* swollen. So I'm back in the socks.

    Now I have to wonder if that had anything to do with last night's #migraine .

  6. About 30 minutes ago, I was feeling some palpitations and a rather sudden headache. Triggered the ECG on my smartwatch. Result was AFib, so I also triggered an update and alerted the company monitoring my implanted loop recorder. Got to feeling better, checked again, and back to normal sinus rhythm.

    Sent a message to the doctor via portal including the ECG strip just in case. Fun.

  8. CW: USPol, Florida, abortion ban

    Florida voters who signed a petition to place a pro-choice abortion referendum on the ballot this November say they have been visited by police who are investigating claims of fraud at the behest of Gov. Ron DeSantis' administration, the Tampa Bay Times reported Saturday.

  9. I am planning on getting a name and gender change order in the coming year. I was born in Texas, but no longer live there. It seems to me (IANAL) that there would be a cause of action under the "Full Faith and Credit" clause of Article IV of the Constitution if they decide to deny me my birth certificate change.

    Of course, with the current makeup of the Federal Courts? It likely wouldn't get very far. :sigh:

  10. CW: spoonie, eyes, fibro flare

    Had an eye exam today. It's been over two years since my last exam. Nothing major, but for the first time ever, I've been told that I have the beginning of cataracts. Just something to check regularly.

    Still can't see clearly, and it's been almost two hours since the dilation. Also not that unusual. Ordered new (progressive) glasses.

    And my fibro is flaring. I was out about two hours.
