A1. I finally had a program that worked, taking one opioid cousin, a pill for my nerves & a muscle relaxer plus weekly therapy.
I could work, had two businesses, employed people, hired freelancers, a social life, volunteered, travelled a lot. #MedTraumaChat
A1. Even before Obamacare when I had to pay cash, at least I had the option. It has gotten to the point now, after moving to TX, where I had to be drug tested every month for the mildest opioid-like pain pill. #MedTraumaChat
A1 I switched to a new care center. I got great treatment my first visit and I hope it lasts.
I still can't work full time as my meds have not been restored. (I have only had urgent appointments so far, no PCP.) But at least they see me as a person. #MedTraumaChat

Damn if coffee doesn’t help me more than hurt. #myspoons
I wonder if getting out of the habit of drinking coffee was a daft choice as a #spoonie with multiple fatigue conditions.
Once my body let me get out of bed today, I figured, let me get coffee while I'm up. And wow.
It didn't fix everything (I’m definitely depressed and need a therapist) but damned if I'm not actually getting things done for the first time in 3 weeks.
