  • “PSA, Energy Drink, and the Monday That Sneezed on Me”

    Alright, my ragtag tribe of warriors, poets, and people who also weren’t ready for Monday — gather ‘round.

    Because baby Yeshua heard my prayers this morning and granted me a slow Monday at work. Minimal patients. Minimal emails. No meetings. Just me, my caffeine, and the gnawing realization that Friday was five minutes ago and somehow Monday snuck up like a ninja with a grudge.

    So yeah — bedtime? 3 AM.

    Work start? 8:30-ish.

    Mood? Somewhere between “Doc Holliday with a cough” and “is it Friday yet?”

    BUT since the universe handed me a breather, let me rock your brains with a little PSA from your friendly neighborhood nurse:

    ☠️ TB IS NOT DEAD — IT’S JUST HIDING. ☠️

    Yeah, tuberculosis. That old-timey-sounding disease you thought got buried with Victorian corsets and Wild West saloons? Guess what — it’s still here.

    👉 Facts you didn’t know you needed but I’m giving you anyway:

    TB infects millions every year worldwide. It can snooze in your body for YEARS without making you sick. It’s treatable. It’s curable. But you gotta catch it.

    💉 HOW TO KNOW IF YOU’RE SHARING LUNGS WITH A GHOST:

    Simple blood test from your doc. If positive, chest X-ray tells if it’s infection (quiet, non-contagious) or disease (active, contagious). Symptoms? Cough that won’t quit Fever, chills, night sweats Weight loss, no appetite Three weeks or longer = 🚨🚨🚨

    If you’ve been hanging around someone with TB, or you live/travel in high-risk areas, get tested.

    Don’t wait. Don’t Google-diagnose. Don’t play TB roulette with your loved ones.

    🔥 FINAL WORD FROM YOUR FAVORITE SLEEP-DEPRIVED, ROCKSTAR NURSE:

    TB doesn’t care who you are.

    But you can care enough to check.

    One test at a time, one early treatment at a time — we can knock this sneaky bastard out.
