Medical Unicorn

Medical Unicorn ….. What exactly is a medical unicorn, well what do we know about unicorns? They are incredibly rare, elusive creatures…. Many believe but have never experienced one, others always doubt their very existence. There are many different types of unicorns but today I want to share with you my latest good news….. I am in fact a Medical Unicorn and I have the documentation to back it up! %COL
Now I realize this may seem silly to many of you but for me this is huge because I have spent my whole life being judge not only by people in general but also by medical professionals ,which in part has added to my inability to find providers with whom I am comfortable. Every time I tell them I am not on any medication, they look at me like I am lying. I actually had one ask me if I had been prescribed medication but chose not to take it, because of course that must be the explanation. The trip to the Emergency room that time I blacked out…. Yes that was the best… every time a new nurse or Doctor would come in it would be the same thing… look of doubt. Despite the fact that they had literally ran EVERY test possible on me including MRI, CAT scan, blood test x-rays, literally everything test, and nothing came up, they still did not believe it and thus they ran several of the test twice. Not even kidding. That was a few years ago and I had nothing then and I am happy to report….. Still Nothing!
Just completed several different test, blood work, complete physical and nothing…. Not a single issue or concern. NO diabetes, cholesterol fine, blood pressure perfect…….. Nothing…. Making me a Medical Unicorn! So yeah me…. But more importantly, Please do not judge a book by it’s cover. I know that is a old saying but seriously you do not know everyone’s story. When you do not know their story, don’t just make it up, and do not assume things based on some surface or superficial observations. I also just want to plug the importance of a happy, healthy mind and spirit! Health is not just about our physical bodies, we are actually more affected by our emotional and spiritual well being so Please do not neglect all the parts of who you are…. Take care of yourselves, there are people who are counting on you and love you so destress and breathe! Say No to “Dis- ease” ! Thanks for stopping by and please let me know you stopped by or if you have any questions.
