Doctor appointment **EDIT**
Well – I am still sore all over and my hands are TORE up. Litterally. I will try to NEVER ever do that again. LOL
I have my neurologist appointment today at 9:15 or is it 9:30? They called to remind me of my appointment on Friday. They think I can remember it over the weekend. Right. LOL
I hope they can provide me with more samples of Relpax (the migraine meds they have been giving me) and Keppra. I cannot afford to get scripts filled of them – they are not on my insurance’s acceptable scripts – so they are SUPER expensive… If he cannot get me any of that brand – maybe they will give me samples of something comprable.
I am waiting to take my lortab and soma until I come home. After I take them – I have about 10 -20 minutes when I am a little light headed and I do not want to drive when I take them. So I will take them when I come home.
I can sure tell a difference in my range of movement and how sore I am when I forget to take them this weekends over doing aside. I will write more about my pond this afternoon. I need to finish getting Autumn ready to go – I have no one to watch her while I am at the doctor so she goes with me. 🙂
We have to leave in about 15 minutes.
Oh before I forget – we are all starting back on the South Beach Diet today… I will update my ticker with the correct weight this afternoon as well… I hate to see how much I have gained since we kinda let it slide…………
Ice Cream Drumsticks – I will miss you…..
**EDIT**
I am back – that was one quick visit – usually he takes more time than that. I got my weight – 225 – not as bad as I originally thought –
He is still concerned that the headaches have gotten worse – sometimes 2 a week. He upped my keppra. I currently take 1/4 of a 500mg tablet (or 125mg) a day – for the next week I will be taking 1/4 tablet twice a day then proceding to half a tablet twice a day. so I will be taking one whole tablet a day.
They gave me some samples… I have 21 keppra tabs – and only 2 migraine tabs… Gah – My next appointment with them is not until December 16th. I will be calling them next week to have them hold samples for me. I cannot afford to fill actual prescriptions – and the doctor knows it. His nurse kinda got p*ssy with me when she handed me the samples… Like I was really putting her out by having the doctor give me samples. I asked her if I should call next week about getting more and she was like THAT IS ALL WE HAVE – AND WE WON’T HAVE ANY MORE FOR OVER A WEEK. Excuse me? There is not reason to kinda yell at me. Sheesh.
So I am home now… Trying to think what I can eat for lunch and what I have I can fix for Autumn.
UGH this keyboard keeps messing up… PTTHTHTH
ok going to take my meds now… later taters

Eh, tell that ol’ nurse to stuff it. I’m glad your doctor is so willing to give you samples, that’s awesome. *hugs* I hope all these meds help a little!

you’re doc visit said you’re at 125? And you’re still on a diet? Typo, maybe? Sorry, the nurse is so pissy! Hopefully you can get samples pretty quick. Wish they offered samples of the meds I’m on.

You should speak to your Doctor about the nurses attitude and the way she spoke to you. They get those samples free, it’s not like it was coming out of her paycheck so she had no reason to be that way with you.

I agree with DragonKat, and he’ll probably give you more samples too, because she was a bitch. ~nods and hugs~
