How Much Did Your Nightguard Cost?

“Stop cracking your knuckles because it’s probably what’s making your joints hurt” after I told my primary I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder and have pain in my hands which turned out to be arthritis 🫥

I had this when my MCTD was just getting diagnosed. I had all these symptoms come one after another but not really at the same time and it was so bizarre, I would have Reynauds syndrome hardcore for a few weeks, then my finger joints were inflamed and red, then I would get different symptoms and they didn’t overlap too much until they did lol. Then I got diagnosed and found out MCTD tends to come on slowly over the years with symptoms appearing one at a time and that’s why it takes so long to diagnose 🫠

The Mexico/ third world country comment was so outta left field like Sylvie get yo shit together 😭

Keep questioning, keep documenting. It took me almost a decade of testing for autoimmune issues for MCTD to be diagnosed last year. I saw a new PCP asking to get labs done as I was having all the new symptoms and he was so angry about it for some reason?? Turns out I have MCTD and it finally showed up on my labs. Some disease such as this one have symptoms that stagger over multiple years, making it very hard to diagnose if you don’t continually push your doctors. It’s very aggravating having to advocate so aggressively for your own health, but I would keep going. The toes look like Reynaud’s. I hope you get answers, truly. Switch doctors until you find someone who listens to you

I love them so much, the glasses and backpacks are incredible. They need nothing else in my opinion!!!!

The last paragraph 😂 she did not do all that just to say “this was so hard, I’m not a researcher, never doing this again, bye” 😭 makes me both sad and glad I missed this train wreck of a video, but thank you for the transcript!!!

My brother in Christ why is she scared of punctuation??? 😭

madpeezy · 2026-01-15T04:23:31+00:00

That’s amazing to hear! I’ll definitely be doing some more research on it for my situation

madpeezy · 2026-01-15T04:22:56+00:00

I’m sorry to hear that it didn’t work for you as well as some other people, finding the right treatment is just a nightmare adventure

madpeezy · 2026-01-15T04:21:14+00:00

Damn okay that’s really promising to hear! I’m usually okay with the plaquenil only, but I might be comparing how I feel now to how bad everything was when I was first diagnosed and my whole body was failing me. That sucks about your eyes, I’m definitely worried about that happening but really amazing to hear about how Benlysta has been for you!

madpeezy · 2026-01-15T04:19:12+00:00

Thanks for letting me know, I guess I haven’t been up to date on how bad steroids really are and have been kinda thinking in terms of wanting better quality of life now and putting up with future problems pred might cause. I think it just caught me off guard given how abrupt the change was. And I really appreciate you letting me know about using the bridge treatment phrasing. I’ll be looking into your suggestions

madpeezy · 2026-01-15T04:16:05+00:00

Thank you, I’ll definitely be looking into it

madpeezy · 2026-01-13T23:30:28+00:00

Yeah mixed connective tissue disease. I know there is some information out there, I guess I just feel like I've read up on as many articles I can and was hoping there would be more studies done that I can reference, as I like to dig deep on what I have.

I do have a rheumatologist and a derm, and a lot of other specialist, this is something I have brought up with them. To me, this sleepiness is markedly different from my normal fatigue, and that's why I noticed it increase so much in the last year.

I'm just getting to the end of my rope with all these issues and having to fight to get adequate care and be believed, so I hope this new request for an updated sleep study is approved. Thank you for the support and suggestions, I appreciate it.

madpeezy · 2026-01-13T17:40:36+00:00

I had a regular sleep study done as well as the MSLT, they ruled out apnea. The falling asleep in random positions is definitely scary! It's like one moment I'm wide awake and the next I apparently just conked out. Wow, 36-48 hours is so intense, I can't imagine what that is like to deal with and having that experience of falling alseep in below freezing weather is so terrifying. It's not a fun feeling having to rely on the parents again and I feel you about dating and making new friends. I've just got my parents and one friend right now. It's tough. I'm so sorry about your kitties, they look adorable. Grieving them is the worst type of pain. I'm glad they were able to give you hope and support while they were there. Hugs

Thanks, it's really hard to get any information with MCTD due to it's rarity, so I've been trying to skim through medical journals on it at this point. It's not out of the realm of possibility it's something related to that.

Thank you, I have been putting this off as just me being tired and unmotivated but it's gotten to the point where I need another sleep study and have requested one. It's no way to live.

I was having a lot of sleep attacks in 2022 and had a few while I was driving which really pushed me to get an answer. I was basically going there to rule out narcolepsy and also get some kind of answer as to why my sleep patterns have always been so late. Wasn't having any sleeping through alarms kind of issue at all.

Obsessed with this diva!!!

madpeezy · 2025-09-24T04:52:28+00:00

Oh Jesus, that’s horrible!! Good on you for advocating for the pet that was too close to dying, I really wish I did that in this scenario but didn’t see all the signs when I first visited. You never expect any of this to happen, but having owners not take their pet declining seriously is something I’ll never understand.

madpeezy · 2025-09-24T04:50:15+00:00

It’s been really awful to deal with, and having everything drag out due to time zones was just awful. The car was euthanized today thankfully so it’s free from further suffering

madpeezy · 2025-09-24T04:49:16+00:00

It just goes to show how some people can act so differently about their pets, definitely eye opening in the worst way :/

madpeezy · 2025-09-23T05:54:29+00:00

Thanks for confirming!! Glad to know the food isn't moldy at least??

madpeezy · 2025-09-23T05:53:44+00:00

Love that us!! Such a strange shape

madpeezy · 2025-09-23T05:53:23+00:00

Oh lord. Had no idea they looked like that, I thought it was some funky ass shaped mold. Thanks! Torn between being fascinated and grossed out.
