Project Update: Foxwright Apothecary: December Update
With the last of the manufacturing error and complications worked out (details that are too small to work with, margins for colors, etc.), it’s just a matter of playing the waiting game on this end. Most things were just a matter of minor adjustment to some of the insignificantly small line work or areas of color fill that required a bit more breathing room between the lines.

On a personal note, the ongoing Sinus Saga™️ has finally had some light shed on the situation— as I’ve alluded in previous updates, I have been grappling with an ongoing sinus infection that never has completely gone away for 10+ months (though after some reevaluation, I think it’s actually been persisting for more than a year at this point) despite many, many visits to my PCP/urgent care. It oscillates between a level “status quo” level of something I’ve just been living with, constant mucus isolated to the right side, occasionally flaring up to be all-encompassing and prompting doctor’s visits for a round of antibiotics that bring it back down to the “normal” level.
I finally managed to get in with specialists and have imaging done, which has been very enlightening— evidently, I have a severe fungal sinus infection that has been growing unchecked in my head for over a year (which is a little horrific) and the entirety of my right side sinuses are obstructed. It certainly explains a lot. Surgical intervention is the only treatment, which I am waiting to get the call for scheduling.
Having now seen my imaging, coupled with what my daily life has looked like, I’m personally shifting blame for my all-encompassing and heavily debilitating malaise from my other chronic conditions to this beast that’s been growing in my head, horror protagonist style. Here’s hoping that after surgery I’ll be of a far more sound mind and body. Though an invasive kind of procedure, I’m unbothered by the prospect of sinus surgery— I had a septoplasty/ethmoidectomy/turbinate reduction in 2020 on my left side (after going my whole life to the age of 20 with one functioning nostril as a result of a severe deviated septum + bone spur) and of all the procedures I’ve gone through, sinus surgery is by far one of the easiest recoveries.

My apologies for the delay in getting this update posted, it’s been hanging out in my drafts while migraines and the nightmare of the end of my semester has been kept me from proofreading and adjusting it. I also apologize for how long it has been since the last update, I didn't realize that it hadn't been only a couple weeks since it was posted.
