sugared_roses - [TW: bruises, medical art] Sick
infoAbout This Title
Just a little bit of vent art as I try getting used to my new iPad. I’m basically bed bound right now as I’m awaiting my genetic testing for a deadly vascular disorder. I basically can’t do anything without getting bruises, not even walking normally inside or sit with my legs in a 90° angle, and sometimes they spontaneously appear when I’m just sitting or laying in bed or on the couch as well. Feeling very isolated and alienated at the moment, more than usual. I’m not allowed to do anything that raises my heart rate or blood pressure, or get too hot until we get the results. Had a stay in the hospital too as they had to run some standard tests. I’m relieved it’s not cancer or liver disease. We think I might have had an aortic dissection within the past year, but not right now, so the CT/MRI scan to identify stuff like that won’t be done unless I test positive for the genetic disorder.
As for art, I might do some character portraits for the coming weeks idk. I’m feeling so low spirits that nothing really feels fun and a lot of my emotions are just not there (hello depression my old friend) and I haven’t been feeling like working on anything sexy. Maybe it will change as I get back into it and I start having fun again but it feels so far away when I’m just filled with anxiety.
XOXO,
Rosa
