@DawnMGibson @CreakyJoints A10 I got a high risk COVID19 and IBD paper from my gastro, but I did not know of the patient support program. Yet another beautiful thing our fairy godmother does for us! We love you! #SpoonieChat

A9 (cont): This begs the question...why is a #COVID19 patient more valued than a #rheum or #lupus patient? Which takes me to the dark place of why should disabled people be sacrificed if care is rationed due to triage + mass casualties? #HighRiskCOVID19 #SpoonieChat

A4 I still need my Spoonie Godmother to clean my bedroom, where all piles eventually end up. I need all my medication in three month quantities and DELIVERED. I need affordable meds that don’t require super secret coupon codes. #SpoonieChat

#SpoonieChat, thanks for another great chat. I'm eagerly reading your tweets. Please be careful, #HighRiskCOVID19 fam. 💕💕💕
@detroitxpaige
@Owl_ofthewoods Absolutely! At the very least their licenses should be suspended. People are going to get very sick without their Plaquenil and these doctors are causing a shortage. #HighRiskCovid19 #SpoonieChat

@DawnMGibson A2 Very anxious right now, trying to cope with this new constant level of high anxiety. I really want to help others who are feeling overwhelmed with anxiety right now, checking in on my loved ones a lot, letting it be known that #Disabled people aren't disposable. #SpoonieChat
OakAndRedwood @OakAndRedwood9
A3: #SpoonieChat My experience felt much screaming into a maelstrom. I tried to explain why and how I needed to be protecting myself and my medically fragile family members and students and got gaslit over and over. And then suddenly, people paid attention when others said it.
Teresa M. Stallone @tstallone
Thank you, Dawn! Take care everyone! #Spooniechat #HighRiskCovid19

A1. #SpoonieChat I'm Al. I have a bunch of food allergies Dxed as well as IBS. I've got all kinds of unDxed stuff going on, too. I have my suspicions (MS, EDS, MCAS?) but idk. Nothing is completely certain.
@detroitxpaige
@tstallone Same! I thought dentists were able to prescribe antibiotics, pain meds, and only a few other medications. #HighRiskCovid19 #SpoonieChat

As a followup to #SpoonieChat, I wanted to post a few articles of interest pertaining to the issue of rationing care and the effects of medicine hoarding + shortage. #HighRiskCOVID19

A7. I want non-disabled, non-sick people to realize that if they catch coronavirus it could cause enough damage to their body that they become high-risk. #SpoonieChat #HighRiskCovid19
OakAndRedwood @OakAndRedwood9
@DawnMGibson A2: #SpoonieChat Focused on work as much as I can to keep occupied. I have more than 100 teenagers counting on me for distance learning, and it helps. But having a lot of moments when I burst into tears, have to use techniques to stop anxiety. Glad my therapist uses telehealth.
Al Jordan @ActuAli21
Q2. #SpoonieChat I don't know. Brain fog. I'd worked myself too hard and was overdue a vacation, and even a week into isolation and doing very little, I'm still SO tired. I'm stressed but my med is making the anxiety manageable. Asthma isn't well controlled.

A3. #SpoonieChat I'm scared and angry. People don't seem to be taking this as seriously as they should. The bungling of the government is killing people. Respiratory distress is something that terrifies me although it's part of my life. The COVID-19 kind looks awful.

@DawnMGibson @CreakyJoints A10 #SpoonieChat #HighRiskCovid19 I am now lol! I've had the link open in my phone browser for like a week, but wanted to do it on my computer. Thanks for the reminder! ☺️

A4. #SpoonieChat If bosses would just take employees seriously and have them stay home when they're sick, that would be huge. Like, it shouldn't even be a question, but it you're doubted if you get sick and too many bosses require people to show up for work in spite of fever

I can attest to the power of an anti-inflammatory diet. And I’ll still have a treat occasionally but not every day for sure! If I have too much salt or too much sugar I get pain flares. Hydration is super important too. This article is super useful/informative! #SpoonieChat

A8 I think Gov. Murphy (NJ) is taking this seriously. I’m worried about people who don’t have a relationship with a primary care doctor. I’m suspicious of places like Target & Walmart that sell enough groceries that they can stay open. #SpoonieChat #HighRiskCovid19
Al Jordan @ActuAli21
A7. #SpoonieChat We're all around you. Somebody you love is definitely #HighRiskCovid19. We're less likely to come out of this alive than you. We deserve protection.
Al Jordan @ActuAli21
A8. #SpoonieChat #HighRiskCovid19 My governor (CO) took strong measures at first, but then failed to issue a statewide shelter in place order saying our fear of the Grim Reaper should be the enforcer of social distancing. I can look out my window and see that's not working.
@detroitxpaige
@tstallone I thought the DMDs and DDSs were had the same privileges, like MDs and DOs, but now I'm not sure. In any case, they have no business writing Rxs for Plaquenil. #SpoonieChat #HighRiskCovid19

A10. #SpoonieChat #HighRiskCovid19 I hadn't even heard of that till now.
Tina @Nice_White_Lady
A9 I’m disgusted. So far, the meds my insurance company still allows me to buy are available, but I’m horrified by what other people are experiencing. CARA showed us how quickly disabled people will be tossed aside to please non-disabled people. #HighRiskCovid19 #SpoonieChat
