  1. CW: Chronic illness, life update

    So after 25 years (as long as I remember) of intermittent knee pain and 15 years after having been told that everything was alright after a quick radiography, I built up enough courage to talk about it to my amazing GP.
    Turns out, I have all clinical symptoms of a Patellofemoral pain syndrome, a simple but well done radiography can confirm the diagnostic. I also learnt that my knees are hypermobile...

    If this is confirmed, there's no treatment except building-up some extra muscles with a physiotherapist.

    So thanks for my amazing GP and fuck the former doctors that made me scared of talking about it ever again while when it flares up, I can barely climb a flight of stairs or sit down on the floor

  4. What is the best desk chair for back support? I'm chronically ill and in pain all the time, currently my desk chair is not meeting my needs and is making it very hard for me to use my computer, even with pillows and trying my best to position correctly etc. #disabled #chronicallyill #chronicilless #chronicpain #askmasto #askmastodon #gameing #disability

  8. Hi, I have a chronic illness which means I can only work part time. I also have some mental health conditions and also currently a long covid lung issue. This made my Twitter community all the more important to me because I am often home alone and there were many others there in similar situations and it was good for company and support. If you are home a lot for similar reasons (or different ones) please say hi! #chronicilless #fibromyalgia #LongCovid #anxiety #ptsd

  13. Listening to #Ren this morning. His recent #music videos about #mentalheaIth and #chronicillness are amazing.

    Hi Ren www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_nc1I…

    and Sick Boi www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Q6uCr… both explore these issues.

    His retake on the Verve's #BittersweetSymphony explores more social issues. www.youtube.com/watch?v=JwtEOp…

    As a bonus, watch enough of his videos and it's a tour of every dive in #Brighton.

  16. Being a chronic migraine sufferer has marked my life and limited my art time. Imagine getting one for every illustration you make. That’s a price some people have to pay to do what they love :/

    Anyway, here’s another migraine-inspired illustration✨
    It has no title yet so I’m open to suggestions :)

  21. I've always been someone who likes to get stuck in. A year ago I was still volunteering across 4 different non-profits, and providing services pro bono to several others. Chronic illness has meant I have to take a step back. I just don't have the energy - but I still have the ambition. I need help re-routing my efforts into low energy, but high impact activity. Any thoughts? I favor environmental and social justice causes, particularly around healthcare.

  26. I have a friend who is sick and on her own in a London flat. She also has a chronic illness.
    It got me thinking about 3 c's

    Care
    Compassion
    Companionship

    We all need this and especially when we are sick. There were so many mutual aid groups set up to help each other early in pandemic but what about now? People are still getting sick and if living on their own increasingly isolated. What help is there to provide those 3 C's?
