So, this week I have a job interview with a company I REALLY want to work for. And by far, I think I have a chance. It is a seasonal job. However, there are some negative aspects that come out of it. They give you a list of dates you are needed to be at…

Struggle of explaining Health
So the word has been out for a while, where I finally decided to switch Dance Coaches and to get someone better for the needs I needed on the ice. While the switch was pending for months prior, the actual switch came in (end) of January 2019. My biggest fear was having to explain…
Caffeine Intolerance?
Over the past few months I have been doing a test with my body. I think, I am ready to announce the results. I don’t remember if I posted anything about this, but, in September 2018 I hit an all-time low. I physically could not get out of bed. The doctor signed me out of…
Emergency Surgeon Appointment
This week has been a weirdly eventful one, but one that has become worrisome.
10 things nobody tells you about Endometriosis
March is the awareness month for Endometriosis. In the past, I have told my story on Endometriosis and the surgeries I’ve had because of the disease, I decided to take a new direction in hopes to continue raising awareness.
Post-Concussion Symptoms nobody talks about.
Concussions are a traumatic brain injury. What most people don’t realize is the aftermath is the worst part of the injury. This is because of how unwired the brain becomes which leads to some uncommon symptoms that can last a lot longer than ‘just’ headaches. In the past I have been diagnosed with several…
Being an athlete with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
So, today it was (rumoured) that a top athlete (Montreal Canadiens Goalie: Carey Price) was diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome back in November. And from all the websites, posts, media etc., everyone was making fun of the illness and saying it was from “Carrying the team on his back,” etc. What people don’t realize….
Unfitting Bras
So…I have no idea what this is related too. If it is fibromyalgia symptoms going through the roof or if it is related to my period/hormones etc. But I am getting the worst breast pain in the history of breast pain. I have had this pain before and I believe I have written it in…
Week in Review: 2 gold medals & 2 hospitalizations
What a week this has been. So many ups and downs…especially with a double routine competition in sight. Monday was fine. I felt a bit run down, but come on midterms, competitions, essays, exams etc… I was just a stress ball. I was also up until 2 am studying for a health science exam due…
Painsomnia VS Insomnia
Midnight. Yet, I’m still up. And I’ve been traveling around like a nutbar. I am beyond exhausted. Not just sleepy tired, but physically and mentally tired. I feel like a walking zombie and the only way I will heal is through taking a vacation…. AWAY from everyone and everything. Again, why am I still up…
Two new Endo doctors, Two VERY different views
First of all, it has been nearly two weeks since I have posted. This is not because I abandoned the website but because after opening up about my eating disorder, I did not feel anything could top that post. Before I start, I want to thank everyone for their responses/messages on all the post but…
Fibromyalgia: What the body goes through during a flare
Fibromyalgia is one of the stronger illnesses I have been diagnosed with. Yet, before posting anything on the website about the disease, I wanted to wait until a flare hit. The flare has been going up and down for the past few days, but now that it is in full effect, I am ready to…
