If you didn't know this yet about me, you will now: I have severe memory problems.

If you didn't know this yet about me, you will now: I have severe memory problems. I test very poorly what comes to working memory, translating that to long term memory, and also pulling memories from long term memory is extremely erratic according to the neurotypical who tested me two or three times.
Because of this I do stuff like - write a date wrong and go to an appointment 3 days early, and find out that the person booking it also fucked up and made it short instead of long one.

The neurotypical btw was a specialist who tests neurodivergence and memory issues. I didn't just pull some random neurotypical from the street and tell them to ask me shit with flash cards.
Also I was medicated on the last tests, and me failing them still was crazy to her.
That said: My doctor time is actually on this Thursday. I fucked up by not remembering to quantriple check the time, and demanding to fight the booking nurse so she will give me the time we agreed upon instead of only 30min.

What this means is that I need to probably get 2 more appointments on top of the one on Thursday, and others I have already lined up, to get the things done that I was prepared to get FINALLY done today (which turns out to be Thursday, my bad, this happens and I'm not mad about forgetting this is everyday shit for me).
My gut has waited over 2 decades for its issues to be solved, but man...for people who worry about my blood pressure, they really are not making this easy for me.

Sidenote: ALL, and I mean ALL appointments, especially MEDICAL APPOINTMENTS should always come with confirmation text message, email, letter (if you so choose), and a text day before to remind you of the time and duration.
And if someone asks for an hour (MINIMUM) time AND WAITS TWO MONTHS TO GET IT, it should not magically reduce to 30 minutes. And if the doctor is late, I will become a problem and this time everyone will be late because of ME.
I WILL finish my ailment list this year.
