hi, happy disability pride month. we're a chronically broke, underemployed, carless system. we have maybe $10 right now, and due to chronic health issues, tend to miss a lot of work. our partner has been unemployed due to disability for around 6mos.

if we can, we'd at least like to pay off the doctor. if you can't help, please consider rbing.

thanks.

here's your regular reminder that if you consistently, regularly get headaches, you are almost certainly having migraines, not regular headaches.

MOST recurrent headaches are migraine headaches.

"migraine" does not mean "extremely painful headache." it is a type and source of pain, not a degree of pain. migraines can also include some or all of the following: fatigue, sensitivity to light and sound, visual auras, nausea or vomiting, dizziness, cognitive impairment, etc. these symptoms can be mild or severe and it may actually be difficult to determine if you have them. (who wants a bright light in their eyes during a headache?? i thought that's just how headaches were lmao.)

this is important because while aspirin, NSAIDs like ibuprofren, and other over-the-counter pain meds can effectively alleviate migraine pain, getting diagnosed with migraines allows for a wider range of treatments and preventatives.

it's also important because, in my opinion, your average general practice doctor is not equipped to diagnose you with chronic migraine. don't go to one expecting them to. a neurologist with migraine specialty is a better option, although a regular doctor can still be useful if they listen to you lol.

my life would be miserable and unmanageable without sumatriptan. and i never would have gotten a prescription for sumatriptan if i hadn't gone to my GP and said, "i have migraines and want to try migraine medicine," even though at the time i wasn't 100% sure that was true.

if you have chronic headaches, they're almost certainly migraines. if no one has said that to you before, let me be the first. start treating your migraines.

[keplercryptids]

multiple times in my youth, i went to the doctor expecting them to figure out and tell me if i had migraines. each time, the doctor asked, "do you see an aura?" and when i said no, they determined i must not be getting migraines. no one ever told me that only 20% of migraine sufferers experience auras. that means 80% don't, yet that is frequently used as important diagnostic criteria! what!

[keplercryptids]

a book i recommend over and over is The Keeler Migraine Method by robert cowan. highly recommend if you're trying to figure your migraine situation out.

i’m really sorry i didn’t want to make this its own post but i think being trapped in an extremely cramped car is making it a lot worse. basically me and my mom are homeless at the moment due to health issues. so now on top of my severe crohn’s disease (among possible other things) and the cold weather, i’m also super sick at the moment. i don’t know exactly what it is but my sinuses are completely blocked and i’m coughing a lot. so because of this, my throat hurts, my head hurts, my chest hurts, everything really hurts. i literally cannot talk at all and i have a fever. i really just want somewhere to stay for a few nights to try to recover a bit but it’s kind of expensive so i understand if i don’t get anything. two nights at the cheapest place with no fees is $113 and three nights is $175. it would also be nice to be able to properly clean ourselves us since we’ve been basically stuck in a car for so long and besides being sick, i feel really gross. i know this is a lot to ask but please reblog this if you’re able to. even a dollar would help. if not that’s ok !! thank you for taking the time to read.

12/03 update

hey! i’m sorry this is a little late we got enough for a room for 3 nights, thank you so so so much!!! i greatly appreciate it. but also there’s an issue, and basically i went to the doctor and it turns out i have a really bad case of bronchitis. basically cold and damp weather would make it worse, according to the doctor. which is an issue for us since we’re homeless, even if we’re in a heated car. we found a place a few hours out of town where you can stay a week for $200. again, this isn’t completely necessary and if we don’t get any more it’s fine. i am admittedly super worried about making it even worse too since being homeless like this is already a nightmare but either way i’m hoping i’ll get better soon.

0/200 (updated 12/04)

forgot to add that to the update oops. but honestly i don’t know what to do, if i can handle being back in a cramped car with how bad this is. at the moment i’m doing extremely badly, my fever keeps coming back off and on, and my chest really hurts. i’m really scared at the moment honestly… reblogs are greatly appreciated and again if we don’t get anything i completely understand. thank you for reading have a good day.

[Posting 9/11/19] Hey, everyone! You may have seen my last donation post going around, unfortunately I have to remake the entire post because Tumblr is an amazing website and I didn't crop out my hospital bracelet last time. On 8/26/19 I was driving my girlfriend home from work. I had quit my extremely stressful sales job the Friday before and this was 3 hours after my car (2019, 4k miles) passed inspection with Uber so I could work and hopefully have a slightly less stressful job with flexible hours so I could focus on securing an apprenticeship at a tattoo parlor. Unfortunately, as I was driving down this road, an older gentleman decided that stop signs don't apply to him. He accelerated directly into my vehicle. I noticed a split second before the crash and attempted to brake and shift into lower gear. This caught my face on either the steering wheel, airbag, or lovely combination of the both of them, leaving me with an injury to my eyeball and a very fractured nose. My right (dominant) arm remained on the gearshift while the rest of me moved forward in the collision. I fractured my right elbow as a result.

Unfortunately, I was unable to afford personal injury protection or underinsured motorist protection on my car insurance. I've spoken with a lawyer who has told me that this means the maximum settlement I can get (and probably will get) from insurance is 25k. This includes what they're paying for my vehicle and my injuries. Unfortunately, my injuries have included an ambulance ride, a CT scan taken at the ER, a set of x-rays taken at the ER, numerous follow up appointments, medication, additional imaging, and now I've been informed that I need surgery to reconstruct my nose as the bones are definitely Not Where They're Supposed To Be. So now that 25k has to go to paying off my car (not worried, have GAP insurance), paying all my medical bills, getting another vehicle and making an insurance premium, compensation for time out of work, and Literally Everything That Requires Money Like Food And Shit.

I want to thank everyone who donated and shared the last post. I have a total of $500 to my name right now and I'm so so so so so grateful that everyone has helped me afford pain alternatives (I use topical and ingested CBD. I was prescribed Vicodin, but due to a family history of... severe opioid dependency I don't like to use them & they don't help with my eye ball), food, and even words of support and advice. I was planning on camming to make up the difference with bills but with an upcoming face surgery & the swelling & recovery time I'm.... not sure how that's going to go. If you have anything to spare that could help me get through this, I only have paypal, $10 is a few days worth of busses to run errands. I'm terrified about not making rent next month due to the fact that we're having a roommate change and there is now One employed person in out apartment.

I'm expecting my medical bills to far outweigh the insurance settlement. I will be making a gofundme as soon as I know what the total will be after settlement (still don't have my nose surgery scheduled). My paypal is [email protected] please please spread this around like the last post! I will be offering art for sale or beats for sale once my arm heals up and I regain my full range of motion and most of my strength.

[perstona420]

[update 9/16/19] so insurance probably (definitely) isnt going to be able to cover the reconstructive surgery I need on my nose. Insurance won't settle before my car bill is due. I have to come up with november rent (480) car payment (370) (yes for a totalled vehicle- loan wont get paid off until insurance settles and GAP has yet to get back in touch with me) prior medical bills (130) (found out the lump on my chest isnt malignant but i still need a mammogram which quite frankly is taking a Very Back Seat on my list of things to do) I still don't have enough information to fully and accurately set up a gofundme, but it looks like i'm gonna have to delay my recovery and start camming to make ends meet until insurance settles & even then i'll still be in the negatives. Please please please continue to spread this & thank you so much to everyone who has already!

[perstona420]

[Update 9/19/19] Surgery's tomorrow, insurance isnt covering anything, will have to see if the medicaid they set me up with in the ER will. Please spread this! I'm honestly fucking desperate at this point!

[perstona420]

[Update 9/25/19] I'm late on almost all of my bills and desperately searching for a job. I still have no car and no income source and the $20 someone donated last 8 days ago has since run out. My new roommate has agreed to help with rent if she can, but my share is $484 I don't have and won't until I can get a job. I'm not being reimbursed for time spent out of work as I had gotten hired by uber 3 hours before the crash and don't have a base wage to set everything off of. Please please please continue to boost this, my stress level is off the shits completely right now and literally anything would help. There's barely any food in the house and my gf is having breakdowns over having to support us on her minimum wage high stress job that she wants to leave but now can't. Her GERD is getting way worse because of this. Literally anything would help.

[perstona420]

[Update 9/27/19] thank you to literally the five people who reblogged this. I have $200 left over for rent (which is $484) and I'm still $600 behind on utilities and 2 payments behind on my credit card now literally all I'm asking is that you boost this so maybe someone who can help can see this I'm honestly about to go find another car to hit me at this point if I can't get another job. We can't afford food. We can't pay the bills. We can't afford to be evicted please please please reblog I still need to afford to go to my appointments too and pay my phone bill

[killbaned]

hey, uh

i’m gonna. keep this short. if i can. i was originally going to fill in details about why exactly i was in court about the house last week but i. do not have the energy. (TLDR: mom tried to buy house, got scammed) 

i’m losing my house, which i had expected honestly, and i only have four months to raise the funds to move and find a place to move to. a week ago i was pumped about it because i’m job hunting, my health is better, etcetc

mom broke her wrist on sunday. 

it’s now tuesday at 8AM and i’ve only had 3 hours of sleep since i woke up sunday. i’m literally having to do everything for her right now and it’s leaving me with nothing left mentally/physically/emotionally to get started on this other stuff. i’m still aiming to get a job before the end of october. i’m not saying i’m not going to, but i’m just. 

there’s 22 dollars left in the bank. 

i only have a quarter tank of gas. 

it was 40+ for her meds yesterday, she has three doctors appointments already between now and next friday which is another 50 dollars in copayments.

please i don’t know what to do. i don’t have anything left to fucking give right now, i’m sorry, but i just don’t and i don’t know what i’m going to do. 

i was going to make this post to be a general fundraiser for moving funds, which i need, but right now i just need to be able to fucking survive until the EBT drops on the 7th. i’m not completely out of food or anything it’s just now mom can’t eat literally anything we got on the last grocery order!! and i need pads because she’s been using mine, and i desperately need my omeperazole for my GERD, which is $9.50. i haven’t had it in months and my stomach acid is just fucking searing my throat and it making it hard for me to eat. 

please at least boost this if nothing else i’m so goddamned fucking sorry i keep having to do this but everything is happening all at once and i’m literally the only person that can do anything about it right now and i’m at my limit!! 

i need help.

please, i need help. 

paypal (deadname), venmo 

[killbaned]

Good news!! We’re in the ER again already!!!!!

[killbaned]

So it turned out mom’s got pneumonia on top of the broken wrist, which is concerning since she had literally no symptoms for it this time?? They’re keeping her tonight and my guess is tomorrow but I won’t know until tomorrow. 

I’ve gotten 25$ so far which is helping with gas! Which eases my mind a lot.

…here to bother you again

I’ve been having bummed cigarettes for breakfast and scavenged pizza crusts for lunch, there’s no water in my whole neighborhood until Sunday, my anxiety levels are off the charts which makes it extremely difficult for me to go out and panhandle. my former partner has money that was sent to us for a show we played, but he’s not answering my messages or calls and has no intention of giving me any of that money.

I live in Mexico. most of you handle dollars where you live. if you had by chance any spare amount of money, no matter how small, it would really make a huge difference for me because it would translate into a significant amount in pesos.

[email protected] is the PayPal account I would be able to receive anything from. I know we’re all struggling, but literally one US dollars would be enough to make lunch and drink some clean water. please, anything helps. I’m sorry that I’m not able to give anything in return. let me know if you are able to help or help me out by reblogging this.

I’m sorry to bother you, but I don’t lose anything trying.
