My 3rd dose of #Aimovig arrived 5 weeks before I'm set to give myself the injection. I'm amazed, yet #thankful, at how prompt and organized my pharmacy is with my prescription deliveries. For once, I'm not fighting with the insurance companies to get a treatment that might very well lessen my #migraine frequency and symptoms. #thespoonielife #migrainedisease #invisibleillness #patientadvocate #spooniemama #happythursday #aboutdamntime #Amgen #Novartis (at Green Bay, Wisconsin) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnHL7_qA7R3/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=jvt7wl92bybq

My latest @todayshow #parentingteam article is about my choice to put my #health first. I wish I didn't have to make these types of decisions, but this is my reality as a person living with several #chronicillnesses. #bloggermom #geekmom #igotthis #selfcare #fibrowarrior #spooniemama #mentalwellness #emotionalhealth #rheumatoidarthritis #freelancewriter (at Green Bay, Wisconsin)

Being a professional #invisibleillness patient #advocate means being open and honest about my health. Part of treating my #migraine disease is keeping my other #chronicillnesses under control. I recently switched from #methotrexate pills to giving myself weekly #methotrexate injections since my #rheumatoidarthritis and #fibromyalgia unexpectedly produced more debilitating symptoms that made it difficult to function normally on a daily basis. If my #fibromyalgia flares-up or my #rheumatoidarthritis attacks my joints, my body acts out. 75% of the time I'll end up with a migraine attack and it's difficult to abort because my body is already at war with itself. This is my reality as a #chronicallyill person. All I can do is live the best quality of life that I can. #mham #migrainewarrior #chronicmigraine #spoonie #invisibleillness #patientadvocate #peoplewithpainmatter #nottoday #nevergivingup #migraineawarenessmonth (at Wisconsin)
