Been Really Sick (Not Covid)
So I was diagnosed with this thing called EOE back in January. It's basically a type of allergic esophagitis where your system starts pumping out ungodly amounts of white blood cells in your throat (where they aren't supposed to be to begin with) and it can lead to trouble swallowing and heartburn and stuff like that. My GI didn't seem overly concerned about it since he prescribed a pill and never really bothered to explain it to me in detail and I only got to talk to him for like 5 minutes in three months. So, why should I worry, right?
Well...40 pounds later (20 of which was lost in the last week), 3 emergency room visits, a proof positive allergy to milk, a new diet that consists of removing every major allergen for the time being that's like half vegan hell and the other half with a distinct lack of pizza or tacos for my tastes, it's being pretty fucking horrible.
Imagine having heartburn that is the worst heartburn you've ever had and no antacid or pill or anything anyone on this entire world can do about it and you're stuck like that for a week. Plus no eating. Plus no sleeping.
During a fucking pandemic.
And oh yeah, I made the mistake of wheezing on the way in the second time--cuz Asthma--and I got sent to the HOLY FUCKBALLS scary part of the hospital that day. Oh, all the doctors are in outbreak suits all of sudden, look at that. Oh, people stuffed into dark glassed off rooms. Me, sitting there in the middle of it, in shorts and a t-shirt, little tiny cheap ass mask, asthmatic, overweight, high blood pressure, THIS IS JUST SO FUCKING SAFE, ain't it?
"Don't worry, dude, if we actually thought anyone had it in here, they're be in there own room."
You're in an outbreak suit!
You have a handlebar mustache!
Why is there a homeless guy walking around in here with two different shoes on?
Why can I see that nurse's asscrack? She's in an outbreak suit and somehow still her asscrack is showing and no one has bothered to tell her?
Why is that glass door open three inches? Anyone? Why do you all keep going inside of it and yelling at some poor old lady?
I just wanted a GI cocktail so the pain would stop for an hour! One fucking hour!
WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON IN THIS TIMELINE?!?!?
So...no writing has been done.
Just FYI...
I might be able to eat corn flakes tomorrow.
Yay!
With coconut milk...
:(
