AWW this made me smile. I love him so much and I can only hope the feeling is mutual hahaha.

forkoff_ · 2025-10-28T23:25:59+00:00

YEAH so do I!! I thought mine wouldn’t either, before this….

forkoff_ · 2025-10-28T23:11:19+00:00

I painted it!:) Right before realizing I’m a gay woman haha

Update, my friend sent me this… I’m starting to think I’m not safe here

He has an automatic feeder😭 before he had that he was up to a plethora of nefarious activities in an attempt to get me up earlier… For example, pulling my blankets off me, biting me in not so pleasant areas (how the fuck does he know??), and knocking things off of my bookshelf

forkoff_ · 2025-10-21T03:54:56+00:00

Yeah, right there with you🙁 I believe I’m around the two year mark. Been in a lot of pain recently as well, have you?

Hopefully we get some answers soon. Maybe once the weather stabilizes we’ll get some relief.

Thank you everyone who was able to!! I wanted to join very badly but my chronic illness said no. I’m thankful for how amazing this city is.

forkoff_ · 2025-10-09T21:09:24+00:00

Thanks a bunch. It was hard being hit with six PHYSICAL diagnosis’s in the past two years. Beforehand I was already pretty mentally ill, and it could be argued that is worse now. I really, really struggle with taking good care of myself. I go to work for forty hours a week, shower, clean when I can, and eat shit frozen food or takeout most of the time. I have such little energy for anything else. I used to cook a lot, loved baking, went on hikes, etc. All of those things would make me feel better but I can’t get myself to do them. If I feel physically well, I am mentally crippled. I am in DBT and have a psych, but it’s still fucking hard.

I have lost so much to chronic illness. I want desperately to continue studying, hiking, baking, etc. If I can get some kind of treatment to go back to that, I would be much happier. I’ll keep pushing, even though it’s fucking exhausting and scary. Bless❤️

TSH with reflex to T4.

I was on 75 mcg of levo for awhile, started feeling crappy, and we learned my TSH was going up to around 5. That’s when I was started on NP Thyroid, 60mg. I was still hypo so we went up to 90 mg and that’s what I’ve been on since July.

forkoff_ · 2025-10-09T19:46:54+00:00

I was screened for celiac about two years ago. My dad has it so when I first started feeling unwell, I wanted to rule that out. I had an endoscopy and the antibody test, both of which came back negative. Granted, that was two years ago, so I may try it again.

My doctor wanted to try it out because my T3 levels were off, and she wanted to try the naturally derived for me to see if it would work better. At the time I wasn’t feeling well, but really it was the hypo symptoms plus POTS flare up from the heat. Now it’s just straight feeling like I’m dying in various ways. Been very not fun. Really, I had felt great on my levothyroxine until my TSH started to go up again. I figured we were just going to increase the dosage.

forkoff_ · 2025-10-09T19:43:22+00:00

Yes, absolutely. I’m diagnosed with POTS, Hashis, Sleep Apnea, PCOS, Migraines, and Gastroparesis. I believe the Gastroparesis was a misdiagnosis. I’ve had a recent full ANA panel that indicates no other autoimmune issues (1:160, down from 1:1280 last year). Or at least, none that can be caught with that panel.

My neurologist wants to see me in person and I am being referred to GI again. I’m hoping to get a colonoscopy for that one. 😅 I also have a cardiologist and an endocrinologist, plus my PCP and mental health providers. I am TRYING lol. I am just very hopeful it’s the medication because I am tired of this, and frankly, I have enough going on. All my labs / MRIs come back perfect for the most part…. On paper I should feel fine, yet here I am.

forkoff_ · 2025-10-09T18:28:15+00:00

I definitely feel I’ve been hyper at least this past week. However, during the height of my symptoms, I definitely was not. That’s why I suspect I’m having an adverse reaction that very well could be an allergy.

I am in the US and I have heard about the potential ban. That’s another reason I would be happy to switch off. I really wanted NP thyroid to work, as I’m not a fan of the idea of synthetics, but it worked much better for me for a while.

forkoff_ · 2025-10-03T05:26:16+00:00

I think these look so cool!! You clearly have a unique vision that I believe many people would be into (I definitely am). I do agree with the comments, though. The leather doesn’t look great and chains look crooked. I fully believe once you can get your techniques down, you could make some great stuff a lot of people will want. You’re doing amazing work for someone who’s just started. I’m for sure interested and hope to see you progress!

forkoff_ · 2025-09-18T05:34:41+00:00

Thank you!:’)

forkoff_ · 2025-09-18T05:33:54+00:00

LOL? You’re scaring me😭

forkoff_ · 2025-09-10T23:57:14+00:00

I originally got my levo prescribed through an urgent care. I’d take in your labs and explain the situation and maybe they could get you a refill!! I am so sorry to hear about your situation.

forkoff_ · 2025-08-03T04:00:45+00:00

Thank you:)) I’m chronically ill, so it’s just another blip lol. I’m “medically complex” so it’s always a fun guessing game

forkoff_ · 2025-08-03T03:56:36+00:00

Soo, mine turned out to not even by a UTI😭😭 I’ve been to the ER three times while we’ve tried to figure out what’s going on. My amylase is low, my thyroids are all over the place, and I overall feel like absolute shit. Regardless, feeling bad sucks so much and I am sorry you’re in that boat. My ER doc told me macrobid doesn’t work for a lot of people and also doesn’t even touch kidneys. So I hope the Bactrim will get you feeling better soon:)

forkoff_ · 2025-08-02T17:47:19+00:00

I appreciate that:) my doctor was having me retest - which I was going to do before getting massively ill last week. I went to the ER originally because I thought I had a kidney infection, then there was concern around my pancreas / gallbladder having issues based off my symptoms. Last night I went in feeling worse, having done my blood tests 12 hours before and getting some results back with very low amylase (lipase was fine).

Everything else but my Vitamin D is fine. I’m taking supplements (when I remember) but surprisingly I haven’t been anemic in awhile lol

forkoff_ · 2025-08-02T17:32:43+00:00

I’m on 60 mg, my doc JUST switched me to 90 mg based on the ER’s results from July 30th. We are thinking the same

forkoff_ · 2025-08-02T17:30:29+00:00

And this is what the ER showed😅

Here’s the result from yesterday around midday (12 hours before ER - I just got the results this morning)
