I think I am developing additional autoimmune issues and it's not fun [View all]
I've had psoriatic arthritis for years and I'm supposedly in remission but my body has decided to rebel yet again. I think I've had inflammatory bowel issues probably for years as well but I wasn't paying attention because I was too busy drinking which probably made things worse and now I'm heading into 2 years of being sober and I think my body and my age just caught up with me.
I'd actually been moving away from eating meat and eating more a fake meat products and chicken. And last night I had a frozen hamburger patty and my gut is in knots! Even 24 hours later, and I don't even think it has to do with 💩, it just feels like somebody is scraping the inside of my intestines with a comb or something it hurts. I'm also feeling pretty lethargic today like I just don't have the oomph to do anything but it's hard to have when you're hurting too.
Years ago they tested me for celiac and it came back negative but I bet you that might have turned on me too.
My kid just got diagnosed / tested positive for a very rare periodontal EDS as well so now I've been referred to the geneticist to have that done.
I'm just tired of feeling sick and tired right now 🥺
I just put some rice in the cooker and I'm going to make a scrambled egg and eat that with it. I was going to go out and have lunch earlier to celebrate my dad's birthday and now I just feel like shit 😢😭
