( 1:59 PM ) Miss Me??? Dang Doctors!! I went to a new one on Sept.23rd, who gave me new meds... samples without the directions and side effect pages that go with them. Soooooo this has been a very interesting month to say the least. Longer Rant later. Short version, if I wasn't sleeping (and I mean sleeping all the time) I was mad, since I didn't know why I was mad, I cried. And had other symptons you don't want to hear. They are in the TMI category. Of course did life stop, oh no, just got crazier, between the Kiddo's biology teacher, the Kiddo, the Contractor that is still working on barn roofs, the Insurance Co who is supposed to be paying for roof replacement, my job, my boss, my co-workers, etc... Oh yeah and one big kick butt panic attack!! Haven't had one of those since I was married. I thought I was going to have a nervous breakdown. Said this would be short version. I am better, talked to boss worked out arrangement to get healthly without the "unfounded" (his word) fear of being fired, told the Contractor to deal with Insurance Co, and asked the Queen Mum (my mother for those that just stumbled in here) to do me a favor and not come for Thanksgiving! My thought was to get rid of everything I could that was causing me added stress. And I was finally awake and lucid enough to google new med. Yep, you guessed it. Every dang thing I was feeling are side effects. Plus the one med I was to take with food and full glass of water. All the sites said most side effects would wear off eventually and it would take about 14 weeks to feel full benefits of this med. (Will link med in another post or edit this one.) Duh? You would have thought the Doctor would have told me that when I called and saw him in a follow-up visit. He just said there could be a number of reasons I was experiencing extreme fatigue and mood swings...etc. Here try this dosage and we will change this one... GGGRRRgggrrrhhhh And I pay how much to be a freaking guinea pig. Okay that is enough for now. I have to go pick out a new glucometer based on who my Health Insurance approves of so I don't have to pay $40 for test strips vs. $25 if I use their approved meter. I spent over 2 hours on the phone yesterday with them getting the list and then another hour or two trying to find info on them online. And now I am going to Walgreen's to look at them since internet looking wasn't much help. Health Insurance Co. will only send out one for free per lifetime. So I am stuck with it as long as we are with Insurance. Guess this is long enough so there will not be a longer rant. Y'all take care!!! # :: Your turn to A Muse Me |
