RT @RebeccaCokley: @DawnMGibson A7. That only allowing a Rx of nine pills of Medicine at a time is crap. #SpoonieChat

A3 So many things, more #DisabilityRights & #DisabilityJustice. The @MTA should settle all of its lawsuits by making every subway station in #NYC #accessible| We could elect a president who will make things better for us & everyone. #SpoonieChat

@DawnMGibson A3. 2020 makes me hope so many of my friends in activism and campaign that have chronic illnesses or disabilities find places like #SpoonieChat where they find support. I hear from so many that are struggling.
Malka Goldberg @Malka_G
RT @RebeccaCokley: @DawnMGibson A4. Climate change. I wonder how many od our ailments and illnesses are exacerbated by what’s happening To the planet and how that will continue as things get worse. Climate and disability/chronic health are doing a heck of a tango πŸ’ƒ #SpoonieChat
Sharon the Crohnie @FragrantGrace
@DawnMGibson A8 Develop a spoonie website like Crohnies have on "Crohnology." I get a monthly question of "rate your health" and it tracks if I've gone up or down - catches trends. I can ask questions of other Crohnies and see latest research on meds. #SpoonieChat

@DawnMGibson Sorry I'm late: feeling like rubbish & trying to avoid twitter. Q8: I'd love any support from family & friends. I wish everyone in the #spooniechat community a happy 2020, even if you don't feel like getting out of bed & curse the #chronicpain you endure. Best to you all! Karen❀️

@RebeccaCokley @DawnMGibson Yes! Yo-yo weather and extreme weather exacerbate so many chronic conditions, and climate change is just going to keep making that worse. #SpoonieChat

@RebeccaCokley If this makes sense, maybe we need to look at grants, etc. I am game if it's sustainable for my household. #SpoonieChat

Malka Goldberg @Malka_G
@RebeccaCokley @DawnMGibson Sorry to hear. I knew barometric pressure had some correlation with some of symptoms, but I couldn't tell if it was high pressure or low pressure. Got a tracking app, and turns out rapid swings in either direction make me feel awful... Yay for DC weather :( #SpoonieChat
Jen Turner β™Ώ @SpoonieJen
RT @yes_thattoo: A7: A7: Pain is not the only symptom we need to care about, AND we need to address it when it's present. #SpoonieChat

@DawnMGibson A4: Education equity, mental health service access, people being aware of sensory needs and climate justice. #SpoonieChat

@DawnMGibson A4 This alllllllll day. Fresh produce shouldn't be this hard to find in NYC in 2020 and it shouldn't be as expensive as it is. Same with any other food item, but especially produce. #SpoonieChat

Malka Goldberg @Malka_G
@Aoiferocksitout @DawnMGibson Factor in pre-cut produce to make it easier for Spoonies to prep and you might as well fork over your paycheck in exchange for produce. #SpoonieChat
πŸ’Ž TS Negro Genesis Evangelion 🦯 πŸ’Ž @afrodykee
@DawnMGibson A5: A humidifier, a weighted blanket because I like how heavy my sheets are but I tend to over heat, a functioning skin barrier, a diagnosis and less migraine and fatigue inducing weather. #SpoonieChat
Dawn M Gibson @DawnMGibson
@Malka_G @Aoiferocksitout Yep. It's brutal. #SpoonieChat

@DawnMGibson A7: things are pretty frustrating right now and I’ve been meeting to join in yoof awhile after accidentally intruding. I’ve felt like the disability community in Twitter has really helped me make some important realizations. #SpoonieChat

Ada Hubrig @AdaHubrig
RT @helenrottier: A7: A7: I wish there were better ways to communicate/articulate pain to doctors. Too many still think that migraines are β€œjust a bad headache” or that endo is β€œjust bad cramps.” #SpoonieChat

@DawnMGibson #SpoonieChat A8: it’s kind of upsetting because I feel it’s really wreaked havoc on my social life and distanced me from my peers. I fear opening up about how sick I am because it scares my classmates.

Dr. Alyssa @yes_thattoo
RT @DawnMGibson: A4: A4: I need to see needs mainstreamed. Like, I need specific foods to stay alive. This should not be ultra expensive. And a so called luxury, like birthday cake or coffee creamer shouldn't cost a mint. #SpoonieChat

A7 When people have no #access to care, they die or their conditions worsen. This is not a game. Low income people need the same access to #healthcare as anyone else. Prior Authorizations end lives or leave ppl suffering from conditions that can be treated. #SpoonieChat
Heidi Jane Wangelin Kalman @AspieWriter6390
RT @helenrottier: A6: A6: How To Survive Spoonie Academic Life, The Big Book of Spoonie Life Hacks, and probably a good murder mystery. #SpoonieChat

A8 Please give me access to a Connective Tissue Disorder specialist, an allergist and an eye doctor who all either take Medicaid or will let me pay out of pocket on a sliding scale. Also a pain management doctor in my neighborhood! #SpoonieChat

RT @BalloonRaptor: A4: A4: I wish the #Spoonie Fairy Godmother could wave her wand over food access! It costs so much to eat in a way that doesn't make me sick. I also have to use delivery, which is even more expensive. Food shouldn't be so hard to access. #SpoonieChat
