Deaf/Hard Of Hearing with bilateral cochlear implants. I'll try to put a good word in for you with the future robotic overlords. Mom of an early elementary kid. Another Millennial nerd. Jurassic Park is my comfort movie.
And my 8 year old who is autistic? Give me an effing break, I know damn well it's not the medications I took, not the vaccines. She's just like me and her dad! It's genetic.
Now taking away the pain meds? It's cruel, backwards, and such a nasty grift. 🙄

You know what is still first on the line of defense for me despite the fact I've been taking it daily? Acetaminophen. Add in Botox injections every two weeks, and an antihistamine, and hope that by the time I deliver there's some relief. It's baffling they want to take away one of the few options.

This is exactly where I'm at right now, pregnant in the third trimester and having a migraine episode I can't fully break since May. I finally got a referral after months to go to the neurology department that actually sees pregnant people, and with six weeks left my options are still limited.
