Good morning!
So last Thursday, I went to the doctor, and had a bunch of blood tests done. I've been looking at all the abnormal results for the past couple of days and decided this morning I'd feed them into DeepSeek ahead of my doctor getting back to me. I figured the power of the entire knowledge of Humanity being on the Internet may actually be a good thing, right?
Looks like I'm walking down the path of Kidney Failure. After a lengthy conversation with the AI, detailing the coping mechanisms I've employed to remain a part of the workforce, it seems to think that I may be suffering from psoriatic arthritis. At any rate, I need to immediately stop using the massive quantities of Ibuprofen, but I can't go to work, let alone do my job without it because the pain in my feet is too much (yay, brain fog kicked in, because I can't think of the word I want to use).
It also looks like I may be Hypoglycemic, which partially explains the extreme exhaustion. Of course, if I'm looking at potential kidney failure, that means I also need to cut out the diuretics, like coffee, but that keeps me alert enough to do my job-- otherwise I start falling asleep (yes, while standing).
So, here I am, literally stuck between a rock and a hard place. The environment of my job is causing pain, which is causing me to consume massive amounts of Ibuprofen which is calling all sorts of bodily system... catastrophes, and the economy sucks right now because seemingly nobody is actually hiring anybody, and we're on the brink of a Recession, Depression, World War III, and.... maybe aliens?
Help.
