There’s this pair of black cats at the place I volunteer, one is named Onyx and the other is named Ruby. They’re sisters and they’re so adorable, they are around 3 years old and were dumped on the street together. So freaking heartbreaking, I hope they get a good home together. They’re so sweet. And Onyx has this face that almost looks human , she’s got the saddest looking eyes , she’s so sweet and cuddly. I love them. Sir Batman is still there too, he’s wasn’t interested in coming out but he did seem interested in a toy when I held it out to him. He’s like 4 years old. I love them all. I hope they all get permanent homes. They all deserve the best

Also have poison ivy all over my arm and belly, itchy!

Sorry that’s frustrating not having anyone to reach out to

A hope the poison ivy clears up soon!

Got a letter that my June 29th hepatology appointment has been changed to August 10th. Annoying. I hate waiting for things. Gonna worry me until I get my test results that day.

At least it gives me a while longer to work on my health.

Hi everyone! Just letting you know I'm alive and stuff. Just haven't been on the forums. I haven't been doing too well and other parts of my life are really stressful and I just kind of need a break from everything. But I miss you all. And I will be back. Just not sure when. HUGS for everyone! Kit

My doctor should be in the office tomorrow. He’s usually in on Thursdays. (He works in two locations) So I should hear back about what he wants to do regarding the possible blood sugar issue. Probably will need to do bloodwork since it’s been way over a year since I’ve had any done. I’m nervous about finding out whether I have diabetes or prediabetes or whatever , I hope I don’t but it would kind of explain some things if I do end up having it. Either way I’m scared to know.

Hey everyone, just a general update, I'm doing fine, just need to start seeing a therapist in the US again cause I've been doing therapy in Spanish down here in Argentina and the truth is that it is not going too well, and my psychiatrist down here keeps raising meds and adding meds here and there, and I am extremely frustrated with that, and I don't know how to deal with it.

But hey, on the flip side, I have gotten quite a bit of translation work (freelance) on the docket so that's good.

And I'm extremely excited because I just went to the post office and picked up two books I had been waiting for for ages. One is Black's Law Dictionary and the other is the world-renowned Diccionario de la lengua española.

Also I've been postponing a surgery I have to get down here and it's making me not in the slightest bit happy.

My doctor ordered bloodwork for the blood sugar thing, so I’m going in Monday morning to get that taken care of.

Otherwise I’m doing okay. My pap results came back and everything was normal so that is good.

I’m good! Been working, and going to the gym a lot.

I started back up at the gym on May 1st and I found out yesterday the gym I go to is closing on June 28th and it’s a chain gym and they say that I can go to another location for my membership but it’s too far away so I cancelled my membership for after June 28th and I’ll find another gym. There’s a YMCA close by I’ll probably go there.

I went out for dinner tonight and had fun.

Going to a CFL football game tomorrow night with my sister. Supposed to be hot and humid but thankfully no rain. I’m excited.

I have a doctor’s appointment on Tuesday coming up. Then the week after I have a work event where we’re going to this place to play some kind of games and then go for a three hour lunch. Should be fun.

YMCAs are good, there’s one by me I used to go to , I had a free membership from being a student at my community college which was nice. I hope you have fun at your football game and the work event and hope your doctors appointment goes well

My friend cancelled on me so never mind for those plans

Monday morning I get the bloodwork done. I’m so terrified that it will be diabetes. I mean I want to know if that’s what going on, it’s better to know than not be aware of it. But still it scares
me. I know many people are able to manage it, it just seems scary to me. And I can’t think of anything else it can be. Every time I go longer than three hours without eating I get headaches, start getting very very shaky then start puking.

I don’t know if I’m remembering right but didn’t you have this issue last year when you were restricting? It wasn’t diabetes then so it might just be low blood sugar anyway I hope that’s all it is , good luck at your appointment. Sorry your friend canceled…

I’m not restricting though, I’m eating very regularly, I haven’t restricted in well over a year. So I don’t know why it’s doing this. It seems pretty ridiculous that my body reacts from not eating for 3 hours by getting headaches, shaking and throwing up all over. I’m eating very regularly. I don’t know what I’m supposed to do. I have not even gone anywhere near restricting in such a long time.

I never did get tested for diabetes back then. I said I was gonna but I never actually got the test. I kept pushing it off for the past year because I was scared of what the results could ve
