It's $4 a month for a generic brand. My mom has been taking a pill daily for the last, oh I don't know, 23 years or so longer.

My mom just told me our insurance is changing to a whole different company on May 1. My thyroid surgery is supposed to be May 17. I had less than $800 left to meet my deductible, have a surgeon and everything planned out. She didn't give me any more information either which pisses me off. When the hell did she find this out?

That totally sucks. When we switched insurance here at work a year ago, people were told that if they were undergoing treatment for a specific isolated medical issue, they could be grandfathered in to the old insurance until that specific issue was taken care of. (Chronic long term problems excluded.) It's worth checking to see if since you have a surgery scheduled, you might be able to continue with the old insurance until that surgery is performed.

Sheesh, mtp...I'm sorry such a stressful thing is made even more stressful. Insurance...what a crock. :(

I can't make a def. date, but probably early summer. Thanks casi.
Today: I don't get it. Is my whole world just a big meaningless fantasy? There doesn't seem to be any purpose, and I don't seem to have a place. I ask for what I need, I don't demand or beg, I'm honest...where does that get you, when it's all just hanging by a thread and in the back of your mind is always the fear that there will be that one 'snip' and lots of laughter as I fall so fucking far down that getting back up may seem impossible. What am I, a giant social experiment? A topic of philosophical blathering? Just another tick on the post? Is any of it real? Does honesty count for anything? Anything at all? |
I feel your pain, IM.
I just handled a phone call and I wasn't at my best. I feel sort of sick over it. But what can I do? I have five doctors all lined up every month for money and I only have so much money to go around. I'd LOVE to pay these people off - but, short of wiinning the lottery...I keep chipping away at the cancer bills but they never seem to get any smaller. Sigh. They save your life and then your life ain't worth a plug nickel. :( |
I am really irritable at the moment. No reason. Not 'unhappy' or upset as such...but my temper feels like it is on a hair trigger. I can veer from chilled out and happy to completely wound up in 60 seconds flat, and then that's it, mind racing, thoughts churning. Over really silly shit as well.

You need to go pet your puppy.

For Bri :flower:
And I agree with HLJ, Dana, give Pilau a big old hug! My Gaines sure cheered me up today. :) |
It's kind of upsetting me, but also mildly irritating. It comes and goes.
I ate too much chickpea curry yesterday, and the outcome overnight and today is that I can't stop farting, and BOY do they STINK! I'm never doing that again! |
Hahahahaha! They're garbanzo BEANS. But you just reminded me that my discovery of a new work cafe offering of hummus (the garlic) and pretzels might not be good for my breath or the end that does the windy thing. :lol:
I suppose curry would exacerbate that effect. |
