I'm exhausted. I don't know why. Also, lots of pain. I need to call the rheumatologist and make an appointment, but I keep forgetting that when it's during business hours and I'm not in front of a class. Also need to make a bunch of other phone calls. There should be more things that can be done online.
We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

Whenever I've done Weight Watchers or even just started tracking my food while trying to stay within a calorie range, the first 7-10 days are the WORST. I want to eat everything in sight. It'll get better as you adjust, though.
I hope so. I definitely need to add more zero point foods in to my diet because even with the extra points for breast feeding, I was hungry today.

Yeah, I always had to scramble to add zero-point foods (or, in the case of just tracking food, more veggies) for the first week or so. It's annoying, but you'll adjust.
I need to call the rheumatologist and make an appointment
Tim has an appointment with a rheumatologist at UC Health at the end of the month to puzzle out if he has gout or RA (or, hell, both).

Yeah, that's where I'm going to go. There are two doctors there who are recommended as knowing about EDS. Plus, I get a discount on my copay. But mostly because of the recommended doctors. I just need to actually remember to call and make an appointment during business hours. There are also two other doctors I need to call for various things. And I hate phone calls.

Can you do that online? Or do you already have to be an established patient within the UC Health system? Tim's primary care doctor is with UC Health, so he's already in the system and can make appointments online. So handy.

You have to already be an established patient to make online appointments, I think.

Teppy, make sure he mentions that collapsed lung he had. Apparently that can be related to RA or at least it was for my uncle.

Seriously??? That's weird as hell and also SUPER interesting, medically speaking.

Ugh, I want to crash, but I also want to just finish my grading. I should do the latter and stop wallowing in the don't wannas.

Thrive to spite them
I hope Tim gets some answers and help.
I missed a call about the results from the CT Scan. They want to discuss it which could either mean there was nothing or something. I have to go by there tomorrow when I go to therapy so I'm going to return the call up there or maybe stop in and see if someone can talk in person. I need to make a follow up appointment anyway.
