  2. Vagus Nerves! Both of them.

    Also: can't recommend enough to make a "List" here on mastodon that's just you. Not all my posts show up on my profile and I have no gd clue why.
    Not as helpful for older, since you can't search them, but great for "where tf did my toot 3 min ago go?"

  3. X is terrible, but after the Meta news on explicitly allowing transphobia / transmisia, overall it's just been a tough week.
    Idk what I have but my asthma attack started last week. Elevated neutrophils indicate bacterial infection, my GP said? So either it was "probably viral" like the OoH 111 GP said and became bacterial as well, or I was unlucky that it was bacterial to begin with.

    I've been on Prednisolone, a corticosteroid since the 9th; then last night I started Doxycyline, an antibiotic, and Montelukast.
    Montelukast is a leukotriene receptor antagonist, so it blocks leukotrienes, my patient pamphlet says.

    Got a chest X ray out of it, at least. (Had back pain behind my ex-gallbladder since its removal anyway.)
    Let this be a lesson not to lessen your mask discipline or stubbornness when other people peer pressure you to take risks with your health.
    This is my first asthma exacerbation in a decade and I do not want to continue experiencing this. I do not recommend it. The people telling me I was 'paranoid', 'over-thinking it', 'worried about nothing' and more do NOT have to feel what I am feeling.

    Teenage boys in public who choose to whine at me and intentionally coughing towards me (what?!!?) is super aggressive, creepy, entitled, and harmful to everyone witnessing that. Still, my upper and mid back has not stopped aching. I don't get fevers and I don't have a cough. Only you know your body.

    Some people choose to care about harm reduction; others don't. Do right by yourself and do your sustainable best by others. I believe in you!
