medical stuffgot referred to the cardiac ward at the hospital. the ECG nurse commented on my age falling quite significantly outside the normal demographic catgirl-flop. the doctor was pretty nice (apart from wanting to shake my hand in the middle of flu season catgirl-disgust), said from the get go that he didn't want to take me off any of my medications if they're working which was a big relief. had a look at my symptoms and said they all fit in the big overlapping Venn diagram of Autism+ADHD+POTS+EDS, referred me to get an echo done just in case there's anything serious, and prescribed me some shit that'll straight up just slow my heart down. i really fucking hope it works - i'm sick of doctors and specialists and waiting times and managing appointments and not knowing if i'm dying or just being a hypochondriac... i feel so burnt out but it's going to get so much worse in the next month or two bocchi-cry

fuck that sounds so ass, i'm sorry about your dickhead in laws. honestly, everytime i have to drive back to my hometown i'm reminded of why i was so eager to leave in the first place

handbags are dope, i got a massive one with compartments so that i can carry whatever i need to. it also means i'm always carrying other random useful crap like tissues, hair ties, panadol, etc.

hope the weekend goes better for you meow-hug

this is very Australia specific, but the surgery that i contacted gave me a list of MBS item numbers which i used to find which categories i needed cover for (by checking this). the government has a tool for comparing policies here which i used as a shortlist for which companies to call. it's unfortunately a very tedious and draining process so best of luck. if you're outside of Aus i hope someone else can offer more information

edit: funnily, the procedure encompass both the "Gynaecology" and "Male reproductive system" surgical categories here. very gender
