Who The FUCK Decided That Insurance Companies Get To Decide Whats Medically Necessary????????

Who the FUCK decided that insurance companies get to decide what’s medically necessary????????

This shit this shit right here is so true. I know I’m still young and what not but it’s taken me YEARS of dealing with chronic pain and fatigue and what not to be able to admit even to myself that I need help and that I can’t do everything that truly able bodied people can do because I am not able bodied

The truth is most people think being disabled is a death sentence but instead of advocating for disabled people they r convinced that they’ll never become disabled as if being disabled is some biblical punishment. Guess what? Accidents happen. You will get old and your body will stop working like it used to. Imagine if we live in a world where disability is seen as normal. Where we actually take care of each other.

Going home to my parents today and I’ve brought my Mobility aids with me (crutches and cane) and honestly I’m terrified of how my parents are going to react but I’ve decided to put my health and pain above their opinion and I’m honestly really proud of myself for that.

One of the most annoying things about POTS- I have a separate air conditioning unit from the rest of the house in order to keep my bedroom at the same temperature throughout the day. It's set to 80F° and has not changed at all, but I keep having to bury myself under my thick fluffy blanket and heavy bed comforter because I'm freezing- then I through it off because it's way to hot and I feel like I'm burning up- which sucks. It's like having a fever, but I very much do not have one- I checked .

To summarize my rant about the annoyances of having no body temperature regulation due to POTS- is

Temperature- no change

Body heat- burning up or freezing, switching at random

This is bs- I want a refund on my very dysfunctional body

I have a drs appointment on Tuesday to hopefully get evaluated for hEDS yay. I Hope i can get a preliminary diagnosis from her i stg. It would explain so much and then maybe just maybe I’ll be taken more seriously by other docs. Like seriously it would explain SO MANY of my issues like nearly all of them I stg

I have never felt more seen than this pallet jack makes me feel. This is what it feels like for me to be disabled. This applies to me in many ways but perhaps most literally I am physically very strong but my joints are shit so combine those two things and I come out as a pallet jack
