Top 5 Things that Suck about medical conditions

[littleharp24]

List your top 5 things that suck about you're medical condition. Here's mine on epilepsy and previous cancer history.

1. Going to a new doctor and explaining EVERYTHING! Gosh it takes me a whole hour! 

2. Being told you change channels!  Jokingly though! I'm not a freakin' television! I'd rather be considered "outthere"

3. Getting a full 8 hours sleep and still feeling like a zombie!  Thanks Depakote!

4. Telling you're best friend something and then repeating it 2 hours later just because your medication fries your memory! 

5. Still living with your parents even though you are an adult yourself!  Now that sucks!


             Now I'm not saying I have it tough there are alot more people out there who have it worse off than me. But I like to laugh about it since I can't beat it so that's why I started this post, if you agree and can add to it, reply!

I'd say that a lot of the medical profession are motivated by incentives or discounts offered to them by the pharmaceutical companies, rather than giving a damn about people as individuals,

Sorry if I'm going off on one

my list would be
1 not knowing who i am from day to day
2 people thinking they know me best and what i need
3 drugs and their side effects
4 feeling alone with it
5 being incurable as i think and feel i am(loss of hope)

Not being able to count on how I will feel at any given moment of the day. Yay ultra-rapid cycling.

i think is sucks when people say, "Just calm down"!  If I could calm down, don't you think I would?!  Do you think I choose this?  <continue rant here>

1. Having to chit chat while I'm literally screaming inside.
2. Trying to remember NOT to talk about the {movie character/song snippet/subject that kept me up most of last night and won't leave my brain no matter what} during said chit chat.
3. Not knowing what It is, compared with who I am, or is It ME?
4. Trying to live up to the expectations of people who met me while manic.
5. "Did I just see that or am I crazy" is a truly serious question.
