this surgical scar is completely unrelated to my current hospital stay and it is breathtakingly funny to me and several techs and nurses

“were you in a catastrophic accident?” real quote from a nurse on the sepsis team the other day

I am so incandescently happy rn. I can touch the floor with my knees locked. my hips move when I walk now. my lingering nerve pain is helped by stretching and I can get it to go away by flossing the nerves. >2 years of life-altering awful daily pain and 8 years of muscle aches/tightness/pain of unknown causes, confirmed to have a cause April 2024 and finally approved by insurance for surgery January 2026.

No more crying bc of pain in my car on my way home from work. No more having to limp to the checkout at the key foods bc my foot started feeling like someone electrocuted it while I was contemplating the frozen entrees. No more agonizing lunch breaks that felt like brief respites from a life sentence.

I’m literally less than 2 months out from surgery (Feb 16th!! I will celebrate this anniversary from now on!!) and it’s already been so much better than I’d dared hope for I’m so fucking grateful to all my friends and oomfs and everyone who’s tolerated me up to now I love you so much never doubt the value of advocating for yourself ily

#one glass of wine and no lunch due to not grocery shopping:#but like !!! yeah!!!!!!!#personal #spinal fusion

Unpopular opinion but recording someone coming off of/on anesthesia is fucked up

#-august #Coming from someone who was recorded after a major surgery #spinal fusion #<- said surgery #I hated it #Because #I was in agony #Even with pain meds #And I was saying depressing shit and shit I didn't need to be reminded of #I don't care if you think it's fucking funny it's just shitty #<- husk #Medical tw #anesthesia #tw surgery #unpopular opinion #Especially if you post it

thinking about the solid ten years after I had a spinal fusion where I wasn’t sure if it was valid to call myself disabled and simultaneously was being super bummed about not being able to do basic things the average person can do. like bend. or swim. or do two strenuous things in one day. or being able to shower without sitting down.

#trust me you guys 17yo beck was completely able bodied.#she just had to learn how to walk again and couldn’t stand up on her own for half a year #all super normal I promise #spinal fusion #cripplepunk

Unfortunately, I am physically incapable of throwing it back. No, really, a bunch of my vertebrae are fused together, making it impossible for me to bend my body in the necessary ways.

Scoliosis? Solved.

But I did get a special new disability called I cannot shake my ass under any circumstances.
