Sabina is really needing the #Allergy #medicine linked below!

For $14, it provides enough to last a year!

Can anyone help obtain this today?

If not, please #Boost

Day 5 in bed with whatever this is 🤷. Good news: it's not covid, strep, or flu!

Lupus flare?
Inner ear stuff?
Hobgoblin curse?

It's hard to say, but I am grateful for these things:

1) It's August, and things are very light at work.
2) I have a partner that takes this all in stride.
3) Laying down feels so good to me. So many folks who really need to rest have to deal with war, poverty, smoke from fires, heat waves...I feel so lucky!

The abject misery of a doctor telling you "you're doing everything right, sometimes you just have a flare"

I'm throwing in the towel today and taking a rest day. Lab work indicates that the lupus is very active which translates into fatigue, food aversion and nausea for me.

Still fighting a tendency to "power through" flares, even though those power banks are way, waaaaay empty.

I remembered last night that RSO (Rick Simpson oil - medical grade cannabis) can jump start recovery from a flare, and I slept SO WELL last night.

Lots of rest in my future!

Every three months I go in for a blood letting to monitor the lupus activity, and usually by the next day or so, I have a whole slew of results that arrive via my doc's portal (that will be today).

Seeing the results does always seem to correlate with how I'm feeling, and it feels a bit like a more scientifically accurate tarot reading. Except instead of the 5 of Cups or the 9 of Coins I'm drawing the 6 of Inflammation or the 3 of Anemia.

Researchers found that even moderate recurring #smoke exposure raises risks of #stroke, #cancer, and #autoimmune #disease. A #Stanford team projects 1.9 million excess deaths from #wildfire smoke in the #USA between 2026 and 2055.

Dear everyone on Mastodon, Covid wastewater is increasing. It’s the late summer surge approaching that was predicted. It would be great if you could mask in public to help us all, especially the immune compromised, elderly and disabled. #covid #caregiver #disabled #autoimmune

I am totally geeking out having just ordered a Solarmeter 5.7 UV light meter!

Now I'll be able to know for sure if the UV protection on our windows in the house still works, if the UV protection in the car is enough for me, and if American made UPF clothing is any better than the smaller brand stuff probably made in China. American made upf clothing is about 3 x as much as as smaller brands like Coofandy and Baeleaf.

Busy day today ahead of a busy weekend.
I have been storing my spoons and doing my best to rest.
7hr round trip this afternoon to collect C2 from Heathrow.
2nd viewings on our house tomorrow 🤞
Then 6hr round trip Sunday for 2nd viewing on house we like.🤞

I know I can get it done, but I know next week will be tricky for me.

Autoimmune disease: your immune system attacks you. Current fix: weaken the whole system. New fix via CAR-T: delete only the broken cells. That's not an upgrade — it's a category shift. by @daylightatheism

Two people with neuromyelitis optica — the immune system at war with the spinal cord and optic nerve — have stayed in remission over 15 years after a single stem-cell transplant. He got cells from his sister and went on to raise two children. She got cells from a stranger and no longer needs medication.

Is this medication *checks list price* $7,624.59 per dose? Yes.

Am I going to stop needing it anytime soon? I hope not, because that means I'm dead.

My health insurance company requires re-authorization for one of my prescriptions every year.

It is a prescription for my autoimmune disorders.

You know, the chronic, incurable, lifelong illnesses? The ones I have to stay on medication for for the rest of my life?

I'm not sure if they think I'm just gonna wake up one year and not have an autoimmune disease, or...

The wide-ranging inquiry is a top priority for #RFKJr, who sees #vaccines as a “potential culprit” in various #neurological &#autoimmune disorders, including #asthma & #allergies [absurd]. It resurrects research into a number of ideas RFKJr has espoused, including whether vaccines are linked to #autism & whether thimerosal, a preservative that has largely been removed from vaccines in the #US but remains in some flu shots, is dangerous.
