Scheduled two exams today. Had 4 days to prep for them, was super stressed but I managed to pass both! Going to take it easy for the rest of the week.

Well done, you've earned the take-it-easier time!

So far so good! I didn’t think I’d get to see the eclipse at work today but one of my peers swung by my desk with some viewing glasses and said “go check it out!” I don’t dig going into the office but at least I get to work with good people.

Must've been quite the sight! How lucky were you to see the eclipse and have such lovely co-workers 😊

Pretty good so far. I found the will to get some exercise in and have been rather creative as well.

Welp, given that my radiation oncologist (I am in remission) found that I had stage 3 hypertension, I've had better. A trip to the ER told us that I am not in immediate danger, so it could also be worse.

BonesOfTheMoon ,

Oh ugh. I hope you got on an antihypertensive.

EssentialNPC ,

Lol, nope! Since my blood work and EKG showed no organ damage, I am just under orders to call my PCP in the morning - which I did. I'll get a cuff late today to track as well. I'm already on BP meds, have been stable for many years, and my BO was even good when I was in cancer treatment and couldn't take my meds. This is a wait, watch, and control with normal meds scenario right now. I'm take it given the alternatives.

BonesOfTheMoon ,

Aww. I'm sorry.

Day 1 of ?? of being unemployed. Every other time I've had something lined up before my last day, but I'm yet to even get past a recruiter. Bad time to be in IT. Hopefully it won't last long.

BonesOfTheMoon ,

Hope you get something soon!

Getting better

Considering Mother Nature made the last minute decision to literally rain on our parade during the eclipse, a little peeved to say the least.

Sorry to hear!

Not bad. Usual work stuff. But I’ve also entered a conceptualization phase of possibly starting my own business. I just had a logo made, and I’m digging it.

Well done!

Minuses: Pulled a muscle in my thigh :/ it's been super sore all day. Have had zero appetite all day, so I hope I don't wake up ravenous in the middle of the night.

Pluses: Had fun with the eclipse. Chatted with an elderly man who joked about not being around to see the next one... I enjoy talking to older people. I miss my grandpa 😔

All things considered, not too bad I suppose. I'd say it's a "neutral", there hasn't really been anything good, nor has there been anything bad - I'm just "existing" if that makes any sense at all lol.

Last night I dreamed that I climbed into a helium-inflated rubber raft and had a nap bobbing against the ceiling of an indoor market. Good dream.

It's a real douche move to question a person's illness publicly this way.

If you actually care, DM them or respond in the comments. Otherwise just downvote their post, move on, or block them.

Don't broadcast your drama like a toddler.

hypoproteinosis96 OP ,

User has told me, everybody in the 5+ threads, and god herself that they "aren't a doctor" so, nah mate

Kolanaki ,

Are you a doctor?

hypoproteinosis96 OP ,

Yep, I can tell you with 100% certainty he's got CHS

Kolanaki ,
@Kolanaki@yiffit.net avatar

I guess all the other doctors he has seen IRL must suck. I mean, you're able to diagnose someone without actually seeing them or examining them, and those others can't figure out what's wrong with all the tests they've performed. /s

hypoproteinosis96 OP ,

He has a 6th post about clowning on the mayo clinic, so yeah, I agree lmao.

DoctorButts ,

I'm a doctor

walden ,

Generally I would agree with you, but given Squids efforts at publicizing his ordeal I'd say everything is fair game.

almar_quigley , in Is FlyingSquid Some Kind of Rage-Bait Account?

What a waste of a post. Like so much so it needs to be pointed out and not just downvoted.

hypoproteinosis96 OP ,

The dude has decided to kill himself instead of seeking the help he needs. This needs to be said.

almar_quigley ,

What are you expecting everyone else to do about this? I mean, we’re all strangers on the internet and you don’t even know if they’re being honest or not. There’s no real relationship here.

alilbee , in Is FlyingSquid Some Kind of Rage-Bait Account?

Just block him? I'm not a big fan of reading a medical issue blog either, so I just blocked him and everything is fine. No offense intended to Mr Squid either, medical issues are just stressful to read about all the time.
