How accurate is the Apple Watch in relation to heart rate? I have been following some chronic illness influencers and learning some about dysautonomia. One of the creators was talking about how your heart rate is not supposed to jump more than 40 bpm in a few minutes, but I never realized there are occasions my heart rate jumps 40 bpm in a single beat. Is this something I need to get checked out?

5 high heart rate notifications today. I only took 10 mgs of THC A. Can they please legalize ma*****na in SC? I need to find my perfect dose. It really helps a lot of my medical issues.

I went to the doctor recently, and apparently I found 35 lbs. If you lost them, I am more than happy to return it. 🤣😉

As we approach Thanksgiving, I am incredibly grateful for my job. Working with disabilities can be tough, but they are so understanding. I haven’t been feeling well lately and I got a message in mychart today that my neurologist was ordering MRIs on my brain. The EEG I had last week came back normal. I am having another 2 MRIs done next week on my spine (for pain management) but it’s the day after Thanksgiving, so we are already off. I went to schedule an appointment and they had one available for tomorrow. My boyfriend/caregiver is off of his other job, so after talking to my supervisor… I scheduled it. Something else I am grateful for is Medicare and Medicaid. I can finally take care of myself without stressing over expenses. Hopefully I get some answers as to these headaches and lightheadedness. I had my first MRI when I was 7, so I am not anxious for those luckily.

Kathy Keithley-Johnston was also responsible for the informed consent law in Missouri. It is amazing to me that they still allow breast implants. They are detrimental to the health.

Just so I can look back to see how everything goes..

⭕️ Chronic Silicone Embolism & Silicone Breast Implants

“Pulmonary fibrosis in a patient with history of ruptured silicone breast implants may present a therapeutic challenge to diagnose and treat. In this case report, we aim to discuss our experience in diagnosing a patient with chronic silicone embolism syndrome masquerading as refractory multifocal pneumonia that presented with respiratory failure. A young woman with no significant past exposure having recurrent admissions to the hospital due to fever and shortness of breath was found to have chronic silicone embolism with pneumonitis. This case report emphasis the prompt diagnosis and treatment of silicone induced fibrosis and approach to the most common side effects of breast implants.”

Medical Question from 2010.. If I had an elevated WBC in February on a blood test. Would an elevated WBC on lumbar puncture be feasible in June?
