Hi! I'm Vicki. My blog is called "Miss Diagnoses" because I have too many diagnoses and because my Lyme disease was misdiagnosed for many years.
In addition to being a professional patient, I'm a compulsive reader and doodler. Sadly, my writing and drawing are limited by repetitive strain injury and neuropathy. I use assistive technology, but I can't post as often as I'd like. You can also find me on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram, and I have two short cartoon videos on YouTube.

Merry Catmas
Hello Spoonies,
Well, it’s time for the holiday posts again. A while back I did Santa With Brain Fog, last December I did Festivus: A Holiday for Spoonies, and last February I did Lyme Sexy Tyme: Valentine’s Day Special.
And now we must celebrate the little-known festival of Catmas. Fine, it is little-known because I made it up (it was originally a greeting card to a fellow Cat Lady). Still, I think it should be an official holiday. Ask your cat if he/she agrees. Continue reading “Merry Catmas”

Fifty Shades of Brain Fog, Part Two
Hello Spoonies!
Welcome to the eagerly awaited, ah, completely unexpected sequel to Fifty Shades of Brain Fog, Part One. I hope you will check out Part One too! (Don’t worry, this series does not go in any kind of real order, as I am way too foggy for that.) Since brain fog is the symptom that keeps on giving, there might be a part three and possibly also whatever number comes after three. Continue reading “Fifty Shades of Brain Fog, Part Two”
