Lets get back to work. Fk these illnesses, and the insurance/ healthcare system for royally fking me up. I'm turning twenty this week and my biggest wish is still just to be believed and treated equal by the healthcare and insurance system. I'm tired of it and I know all of you are too. So lets get back at it together. DM me to join my support group❤️❤️
I was always a Zebra. I got spaghetti legs when walking as a kid and Id cry and cry cause of the pain. But what I didnt know then was how bad it could really get. Then mom had to get surgery, I was put on tons of medication, I started fainting, I got allergic reactions to the most random stuff. Then covid came 2020 and I was quarantined for 5 weeks. Since then it rapidly got worse. But I moved out anyways and started working. Soon I was worse than Id been for a long long time. I had to get surgery and then another and then the morphine came along and the benzos. All of the meds I was put on made me worse. After quitting it all it felt like I was back at square one. But then I took control. I stopped eating basically everything that even had the slightest chance of ruining my body, I started drinking tons ofwater, eating more fruit, eating organic, and I was feeling SO MUCH BETTER... but then I pused myself too hard and I am down again. My energy is depleted and Im starting over. Except you're never stating over. This is life as a Zebra and, at least for me, accepting it was what let me truly change my life and get better#edsawarenessmonth
