Chronic Illness at its finest✨️
Things a chronically ill/disabled mom of a toddler can't live without, or I at least chose not to live without😉
Everyday items
Items I use daily to help with activities of daily living (ADL's). I like to try to find cuter things to use like the cane and fun compression socks. Things that make being chronically ill a little better 💕✨️
We love our sleep number. I wish we had upgraded to a little thicker foam and the adjustable heads, but even without the upgrades it is amazing. I am able to adjust my side depending on my symtpoms. I can make it softer or more firm depending on how ...
My absolute favorite cane! I use it everyday. Folds up and fits in my purse if I'm out and about and no longer need it. I want to buy a few more and try to bedazzle one myself and make it stand out!
Holds so much water and/or electrolytes. The handle is great for me, I do not have the best grip on things so handles on cups is a must for me! I have the light blue sparkly color💙
Great for Dysautonomia flares and everyday to prevent flares! Always good to have a solid color pair in case you want to hide the fact that you're wearing them. If you're wearing pants they may just peak out and look like standard socks or may not be...
Great for anxiety and to help you quit smoking or vaping as well. Slows down your outward breath to help you calm down. I love mine. I bought mine in gold! My daughter actually loves using this as well it has been so helpful for me. I'm sad I never b...
Flare Day Necessities
We all hate flare days, these items give me some relief while going through the trenches of chronic illness. Hope you can find some help/relief here. <3
Amazing product. Really helps minimize migraine pain. It gets so so cold straight out of the freezer. My body is too sensitive so I have to let it defrost a little before I put it on. But the combination of pressure and cold really helps to relieve p...
If you are out of your migraine relief script, this helps get you by! This is the only over the counter headache medication that even touches my migraines.
Helps loosen those super tight muscles! My muscles get super tight with my EDS because the muscles try to overcome sate for the unstable joints. This helps give relief.
The best rollator with a seat. Has little foot pegs for your feet so you can even be pushed around when needed. Pretty lightweight. Folds down. Also as stylish as you are going to get for a rollator. Always getting compliments on it at the docs offic...
Very helpful in reliving muscle pains. Gives a nice cooling feeling that gives great relief quickly. I use it all over my joints and sore muscles. Helps to keep me going throughout the day. I keep one in my purse for emergencies while I am out.
Supplements (talk to your doctor before starting anything new)
Great for omega 3's. Help improve cholesterol. I would advise taking before bed because it often causes fishy burps.
Great to help with sleep and anxiety relief.
Great information about the benefits of magnesium.
I have MTHFR so I take methyl folate daily. I started taking it when I was pregnant!
Lots of multivitamin options!
Books to read
Some books I am reading, have read and want to read about chronic illness.
Currently reading. I am not a reader, but I cannot put this book down. The main character had EDS which makes it relatable for me. It is a fantasy book about dragon riding. I can't get enough of this book. This is book one in the series. Book 2 was j...
This is book 2 in the series. I haven't finished one yet so this one will for sure be next!
Here are a few EDS guide books. I haven't read any of these yet. I have heard good things about some, especially if you're newly diagnosed.
A few different chronic illness workbooks to try out. I haven't tried one but I am thinking about giving one of these a go.
