back pain sux how did the appopointment go

indeed we are theirs a law currently on stores now too limiting how much of such item you can buy which kinda sux when you need food to last 1 month and have shoppers that go for you and they only go once a month too its ruined my monthly shop routine

Buckle up we're in for one heck of a ride.

1. Not much for my daily life, as I'm at home most of the time anyway. I am trying to get all my medical stuff arranged though, and appointments are impacted. I do have some serious concerns about how things would be impacted if it gets as bad here as it has been in some other places.

2. I'm doing a bit better for moving around the house lately, not in bed as much the last few days.

3. Still just not feeling great overall. Also, some of my healthcare that I should be doing appears risky, need to figure that out still, either way there's a risk.

4. I watch a bunch of stuff. The last movie I watched was on Netflix - forget the exact title, it was the 2nd one of All the Boys I kissed before, didn't finish it though as I fell asleep. Will have to get back to that sometime.

5. Listen and follow what your local guidelines are. Many people are not and why they may be fine, there are many situations where others wil not be due to their actions.

Hi, I'm new to this community (been on 7 cups off and on for years though :) ) and I'm not sure where else to go with this... I kinda feel like my body is collapsing, my health has just been getting worse over the past year. I don't want to go to any doctors now because I don't want to get sick (with coronavirus). My lower back has been killing me all day. I took a shower and was very aware of a rash I have on my leg. No clue why I have a rash there. I'm hoping it's just dry skin, but I don't know why dry skin would be in a circle just on the middle of my thigh? My jaw/teeth/ears have been hurting a lot too. I don't know why. I've been to various doctors before. I'm trying, I've tried... I think I'm going to take a break from trying because I don't want to go to a doctor and get sick and risk infecting my family as well. But what if that then causes problems for me later. I don't know what's wrong with me. Not knowing what's wrong with me makes it hard to know how to make it better. Should I keep exercising? It hurts, but everyone says it should help. Should I take birth control so that my period doesn't come back too soon, or not take it because it gave me intense stomach pain and made me suicidal? I suppose I should also say that I've had trouble with my period. I had my period for 5 weeks straight. I went to the gynecologist, took birth control, and my period stopped. Birth control made me feel awful as I said, so I stopped it after 2 days. My period started again a few days later. It has just stopped, but I'm worried it'll start again.

I know this is a lot, thanks for letting me vent. It's 3:35 am here :/ I'm up way too late

1. how are you all feeling this week with the whole thing about Covid-19 hw is it affecting you and how are you dealing with this.

yeah not well, I've had to move out of school (college). don't want to go to doctors. missing my friends and school.

2. one thing going well for you

I've done a good job of keeping in touch with people

3. one thing not going well

my health and pain

4. what are your favourite movies and why and the genre you tend to watch

I like Frozen, Back to the Future, Sining in the Rain... for genres I'm not sure, maybe comedies, musicals, disney, romance, sci fi

5. if there was something you wanted to tell others about the Covid-19 situation what would you say - this can include any frustrations positive or negative

It's hitting places at different times. It is very serious in many places right now even if it's not serious where you are yet. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
