Oh For Fuck's Sake!
I don't generally like to post twice in one day, but...I must vent.
It's a muggy, damp, unpleasant day. My arthritis and other joint issues have been bothering me, but that's something I can deal with. I've been battling with rheumatoid arthritis since I was in my late teens. It's unpleasant, but I've got salves and it's not like it keeps me from doing a ton of stuff. And my hips have been aching like mad, but I just chalked it up to wet, sad joints.
Then I noticed I was limping oddly, and I went 'oh no....'
So I checked myself and...my hips are out of alignment again. Of all the things that could go wrong with me, physically, this is probably the absolute worst. Of all the days, why did it have to be today? The last time![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
husband_brother and I saw each other, I was having health issues, too. I was tired, I was in pain, I was cranky...
I don't want to be that way again. And I don't want to be in pain for this weekend. I don't even have meds, or money for them. I needed them for my unholy cycle, and monsoon season's still a bit off, so I didn't bother with an emergency stash. Which yes, that is my own fault, I know this and am kicking myself. But honestly, my emergency stash is almost always stashed for unholy cycles. I've been doing okay with everything else, aside from my intestinal issues.
Which are also in full swing today. Yes, today, the day I'm going out to eat. Except that I can't actually eat food. Well, I can, but I can't keep it down.
And on a purely base level - for the love of St. Tristan, why my hips?!?! I had plans for them, damn it! I spent an hour on personal grooming! I hand washed my mandarin collar brocade vest-jacket! I used the last of my expensive Japanese body wash and special conditioner so my hair smells like red tea and spices! I bought A Special Thing! (Minds out of the gutter, it's nothing NSFW.)
TL;DR version: my body is being very unfair by having Issues at a terribly inappropriate time.
