Finally got dr permission for IV magnesium. I don’t absorb it any other way so I am extremely deficient in it and ill. Can provide materials.
Problem is that I can’t find anyone to come out here in suburbia for less than $600 (check cost of wellness clinics in Melbourne. Expensive or don’t do at all. )
If you are a #nurse#phlebotomist#hcw or have any experience running a drip, please reply/DM. I don’t care if you learned it DIY as long as you know what you’re doing.
This treatment changes my life from bedridden to 60% of normal in a few months! That’s mildly ill in comparison.
It helps every symptom I have.
Hospitals only give it for preeclampsia. Hospital in the Home is the same. Private nurse services same.
It’s so basically going through proper channels doesn’t help.
It’s not illegal to have someone qualified come out and do it as long as doc has signed off on it which is why wellness clinics can do it. But medical system won’t. I know it doesn’t make sense but it’s Australia 2024. If you don’t have formal qualifications we can figure it out.
I’ve even asked the government for help. Nothing.
Was informed even private insurance wouldn’t help with this (I don’t have it ofc but this is an example of how hard and stupid this is.)
P-l-e-a-s-e post to other platforms. I have no team to help promote me I barely have any energy for basics . I have no energy to advertise. If you can help an team also let me know.
Please give me some quality of life.
I’m in #Melbourne#Australia.
If you’re willing to drive a distance will compensate for petrol and pay what you think is fair for your time.
TLDR: Need nurse or any qualified healthcare worker to come to my place to give magnesium IV.
Even consider unqualified if you know what you’re doing.
"Associations between Long #COVID and challenges related to housing stability and home accessibility highlight the need for systemic changes, financial support, and advocacy."
I’ve tried every level of government and they simply won’t help. Ask people in real life if they have somewhere for me to go. Is anybody an #advocate? I need help.
My scooter doesn’t have a tight turning circle so using it on a bus is a lot harder than my powered wheelchair but after my lesson today I feel confident enough using it on buses 😀
It can be useful to get people who are not doctors to write reports about how an illness or disability has affected somebody when applying for disability payments in lots of countries
This document is from the US but the questions could give ideas about areas people in other countries could write about when writing such a report
Refused meds by GP who promised to prescribe until I found a new GP (he dropped me because my case is too complex). Changed his mind! Now have 13 days to find any doctor to write a script or #withdrawal agony for me & no #pain control.
