Update on the Artist (me!) ✨️
I’ve never really talked about this before as I never thought of it as a big deal, even though it is rather irritating, but over the past 10+ years I’ve been suffering with on and off bouts of nausea. I do have other digestive problems, one that does amp up my nausea, but are not as problematic in the long run. I won’t be sharing all my symptoms as I’m not comfortable with it as they do get kind of personal. I’ve had a new symptom appear tho (dizziness), which is also just as problematic or even more when combined with my nausea as it has lead me to throw up which is very very rare for me when I’m feeling nauseated. ANYWAYS, straight to the point.
Two weeks ago from today I had a three day long spout of on and off nausea to the point I was unable to eat without feeling ill. I almost went to the hospital, but erased that idea from my mind due to the very long waiting hours and instead went to the after hours clinic during the spout. I have had just about enough of it as it’s exhausting and it does quite feel as if am literally fighting with my body. It was so bad that waiting in line to speak with the receptionist was pure agony as standing made me feel worse than what I already did. While explaining my symptoms, the doctor did a quick little test and believes that my gallbladder might be the culprit. I am temporarily on two new forms of medication and have been scheduled for an ultrasound to check my gallbladder.
If it is the issue, great I want it removed. If not, I’ll keep looking for answers even if it means I end up on more medication just to make it more manageable especially during a bout. I’m just, so tired of feeling ill and exhausted as often as I do because of my nausea. It does affect my life, including my attendance to work and my productivity with my artwork as it’s literally a struggle to work through it for the max normally topping at 3 hours, and the amount of discomfort I feel when I wake up after passing out from the exhaustion. I will keep people updated once more information is available.
For now, I will be releasing artwork soon since I’ve slowly been getting back into drawing while taking a break to give me time to rest. I’ll see you all soon.

My health sega continues.
Ended up getting the stomach flu on Thursday with the same amount of pain I believe that I encountered after having the ultrasound I had about two weeks ago. Haven’t been feeling right even post- flu and ended up back in the hospital after encounting more pain almost a week after the flu (yesterday).
Turns out my pancreatic enzyme count was slightly elevated over what’s considered normal and I was given plain tylonel with a anti-inflammatory injection as they suspect I may be experiencing acute Pancrentitis. This is not an official diagnosis, but I will be having another ultrasound done to check out for possible causes for my elevated pancreatic enzymes incase the diagnosis is valid or void if it’s something else.
I am trying my best as of right now despite any discomfort or ill feelings I may experience, but as of right now I’ve just been so tired that I’ve been sleeping for most of the day ever since I had the flu. I will continue to try my best regardless, as I think my body is just trying to bounce back.

Update ✨️ 03/28/2023
I ended up admitting myself to the hospital yesterday at about 11pm EST, as I have started to become distressed and refusing to eat regardless of how hungry I was. I was seen at an unknown time as my memory is a bit hazy as I was without sleep for 30+ hours. I had the common test run including blood tests, and my abdomen checked for signs of discomfort to which an area was found. I had an ultrasound taken, which was literal agony. They found nothing wrong with me so I was sent home 10 hours later with a new medication for acid reflux. I was still in discomfort from the ultrasound, as it was so bad that when I got home I was crying in pain. I called the number the receptionist told me, waited for a call back and ended up passing out from sleep deprivation. I’m feeling somewhat better and after giving the number a call back, I’ve been given instructions including monitoring my discomfort. If it worsens, to seek medical help via the hospital or call them back immediately. I’m currently resting in bed and am on a temp break to recover, as I’m unable to draw at this time. Please be respectful, as I am well aware I owe art but all I ask for the time being is patience regarding my health issues and current discomfort.

Update✨️
I’ve been slowly feeling better recently thanks to a work friend of mine who helped me figure out the kinds of food I should avoid if all this is indeed in fact tied to gallbladder issues. So far so good at least as the past two days are the most normal I’ve felt since this all got worse (the constant nausea and other digestive related issues).
With the improvement, I will be posting more as of tomorrow including owing WIPs I’ve been unable to finish because I’ve been feeling so ill. It’ll take time to finish all my WIPs alongside work, but as long as I keep feeling as close to 100%, I should be caught up in no time.
Thank you for all the positive messages I’ve been receiving, as well as the patience and understanding of my customers. I will keep everyone posted, regarding the results of my ultrasound in April.

Agreed, which is why I can’t wait for my appointment on the 3rd of April at the Ultrasound/ X-Ray place I live by to check out if I have been unknowingly dealing with Gallbladder issues since I’ve been so stubborn about seeing a doctor, which is my own bad. I’m learning my lesson now that I have a new symptom so it kinda gave me the kick in the butt I needed to give myself no choice to go see a doctor. I did almost go home since my stomach was hurting me from the nausea, but luckily I had my partner with me so I was able to sit down somewhere until we were next in line to give me a short break from standing as it’s torture to feel the way that I do sometimes. Never went or spoke about really until recently as I don’t want people to feel like I’m being dramatic about it by complaining about my nausea since I have been taken not seriously before in terms of my nausea.
Luckily I don’t have to worry about costs since I’m covered under OHIP, as the only thing I had to pay for was the two new prescription medication recommended by the doctor since I’m now 25 (I didn’t know about this, but they weren’t expensive so idc).
