Wed

It's raining it's pouring.. this old broad is going back to bed for an hour!!

I dont wor****il 2:30 today and I see no reason for getting out of bed... of course unless it is to go get one of the last Synthroids I have left ... maybe that is why I am getting so sleepy... not keeping my thyroid where it should be... Insurance will start in Jan. Open enrollement is in Sept. when I qualify.. After over 20 years on the stuff... I would have hoped it stayed in the blood stream a little longer.. sigh... Maybe the free clinic will prescribe enough to get me by until Jan. Side effects of low thyroid besides being tired... dry hair and skin.. weight gain...(yee haw)... Oh well... my fault if I hadnt of quit my job Id still be insured.. Just couldnt stand working for hateful people any longer... was getting harder and harder to retain a Christain attitude.

Good morning all!

Linda Kay...I just checked at Walmart.com and their pharmacy has the generic form of synthroid for $4 for 30 day and $10 for a 90 day supply. I know some doctors (mine) prefers you to stick to synthroid but the generic is way better than none at all...or not the correct dosage. Please check them out. Other places have the $4 scripts too  (Target, Meijer, Kroger) so which ever store is closest to you probably does too.

While I was at Walmart.com, I had to check out the free samples. Most, won't do me any good but I'm sure Tiff can get some use out of them so I ordered them anyway.

Bill & I have already ran to the Walmart Neighborhood store. I needed some more bottle water for my dispenser so I went ahead and got a 'few' other things too..$125 worth! LOL! No. I cannot go into a store and just get 3 items!!

Since I'm dressed, I think I'll go ahead and run to KMart in a little bit so I can try on their clothes. I hate doing that!

You all have a good day!

I took the generic. from walmart... the $4 isnt a problem, the problem is my family dr will not give me a script without bloodwork and I cant afford it without insurance.. I was hopeing the free clinic would just give me a script for the dose I was on to last me until I get insurance in jan.. thanks!!

Everyone says they cant come in for less than 100.00 but when they do I tell them to write it on their calendar!!

Morning or Afternoon!!  I am so sleepy today from going out last night and also, I keep waking up in the middle of the night with leg cramps. I have been doing this for sometime now. I'm trying to eat a banana everyday to get some potassium in my system but, it keeps happening and it wakes me up. A lot of times I have to take something for the pain because it is so extreme. When the spasms finally go away I fall asleep exausted but, it may take an hour or so to go away and then I am awake and stay up another hour. They get in my calf's and down the shin of my leg and top of my foot. OMG that really hurts. I made an appointment with my doctor for tomorrow and I will see if he wants to prescribe some potassium pills. I feel like I take so many pills now as it is. I guess one more isn't going to hurt.
Hope everyone has a great day.

Hello all!
I went back to bed this morning as well. It felt so good in those covers sleeping just a little longer. I love to sleep on days like this...thank you grandmother.

It will be 5 weeks tomorrow and I feel great. I am still trying to get in protein but the fluids are going well.

Hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday!

Morning Everyone, 

Getting ready for my father's annual get together. Though he's passed we (my brother & his wife and our last living Uncle) still get together the same time every year. Since he was cremated this camping trip is like visiting his grave and honoring him. I wish my step mother would attend but she has yet to get over my father's death. It's been a little over two years. Getting ready to leave on Friday has made me think about my dad more then I usually do. Still stings that I got to survive cancer but he didn't. I know we never get to know GOD's plan, but sometimes I wish he'd give me his answer/reason for my peace of mind.  Anyways, we are excited to go because Q is old enough to learn how to fish, walk trails, and cook smores & I'm really looking forward to that. Gage is still in Florida w/his dad & stepmom & family. They have been enjoying Disney, Universal Studio, and even deep sea fishing. My sister leaves tonight to go Texas for a vacation for a week, so I called her last night to talk her down out of anxiety cuz she hates flying alone and visiting new places on her own. 

My RSD is really flared up today because of the weather. I've got a fentyal patch and have taken 4 Norco's already but I still feel creepy achey in my own body/skin. I might try taking an ativan when Q lays down for nap town & see if that can at least calm my nerves enough so I can deal with this pain. 

Really getting excited about seeing Dr Bergman at the end of the month. *Sigh* I can't believe this is actually happening. Dr Bergman's office called me the other day saying my insurance (Medicare/Medicaid) didn't have to have a pre request of my PCP deeming it medically necessary & that that's what they wanted from Dr Bergman. So I have to get my medical recordsfrom my PCP showing the year & a half he's had me on anitfungal creams for the constant yeast infection in my belly button, belly button folded in skin area and the sides of my hips where the skin folds over causing a yeast infection and skin break down (lots of tiny skin tears). Im also getting a letter from my chiro stating that my back will always be a medical problem because of the amount of excess skin in my panni and abdominal area. I don't think it will take to much for Dr Bergman to agree it's a "medical necessity" but her's in the final word. Wow - so exciting to know that this might actually happen. I'm so nervous. 

Anyways - sorry to ramble. Everyone enjoy the fellowship at the clothing exchange. GOD is good!
