Part of what's hard about getting this sick for the second time is that every time I go through getting new assistive technology or using a new way of doing things, it's something I've done before. It feels like having to deal with two sets of emotions - the set that's happening now but also in a way the set that I went through in the early 2000's when this happened.


[This image is a graph of my approximate health levels from the 1990's to today, it basically goes downwards except in four spots. Three of them are very brief upticks that lasted less than a year, and they're from when I did inpatient rehab where all the gains evaporated as soon as I was discharged. The fourth is the big uptick I got from my new medications in 2010 which gave me the last several years of less-bad health, that's the one that's being lost now.]





This post is brought to you by the fact that today I’m looking at buying a trolley to go beside my day bed. I have a table there now but it’s hard to move a table and I’m at a level now where I can’t always get up and shift around if somebody needs to do something with my left side where the table is.

Oh dear! How did I not know that you were declining so much? I had such hopes when you started the newest course of meds! (And I've known you online since about 1992, just before you first got sick.) I don't supposed there's anything I can possibly do, from the opposite side of the planet, to help you - but if you can think of anything, just tell me!

*sends you many comforting, gentle, encouraging hugs*

do the 2010 medications come with any indication that their effect might only be temporary? those repairs should still be under warranty!
