Mu Dhéidhinn Slighe Gu Slàinte

As this is a micro-blogging site, which has few users, I may just use it to vent about what's happening on my journey to health, i.e. Slighe gu Slàinte.

I suffer from multiple chronic conditions. Some days I'm fine, sometimes all are kicking me around, but mostly only one is having an impact. I never know which it's going to be, and the situation can change from minute to minute, hour to hour, etc. I'm struggling to get my health back on track, but it feels like I'm losing the battle most of the time.

Just for information, the following is a list of various conditions, ranging from most serious to, well, least impactful, I guess:

  • Crohn's Disease / IBD / Crohn's Fistulae
  • Type 2 Diabetes
  • Osteoarthritis
  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Insomnia
  • Tinnitus
  • Reynaud's Disease
  • Varicose Veins

Getting on top of all of these things requires a balancing act that would rival that of a tightrope walker. I'm unsure if any doctor would the ability, let alone me.

Even so, I continue to strive towards a regular life, or something close to what I had before 2022.
