Today, after I stretched my hands and arms and drank my breakfast and lunch, I called Dr. Clerk’s office and ordered my September supplements. Then I called Henry Ford billing because I have a new charge. It’s a $300 charge. That was my endocystoscopy that I had in August.
I did feel accomplished after I did all of that. I also messaged Dr. Chamas’ office to get a referral for my mammogram for November and I requested a flu shot for my appointment on the 22nd.
I really can’t believe this is my life now but it is. MS 100% of the time. I can’t believe it is so hot still!!!
This prolonged heat is affecting me. Yesterday, I woke up and it felt as if I had a vice on my head. I took one of my 500 mg of Tylenol yesterday morning. I take them in the night to help my knee to feel better when I sleep. I no longer can take the ibuprofen 800 because it gave me gastritis. It was eating my stomach lining. It DEFINITELY took away the pain though. I will get an endoscopy when I have to get another colonoscopy. That’s not for a few years. 2032?
I have always said that I, ‘HMS.’ I think that I have been saying that since was about 13. It stands for Handle My Sh*T. I added the hashtag a few years ago and I only text that to my Mom and to Sean.
I’m trying not to swear so much now. It feels good that I still can do this. I can still handle my sh*t. I think that it’s too bad that it’s ALL Medical and ALL expensive!!!
Today was second day that I wore my -8 contacts. My vision is getting a little wonkier and it’s starting to make me nervous. I remember, I knew a young woman who wore contacts in a -10 prescription so I’m not nervous about that but I am a little bit nervous about my dry eye disease… I cannot believe that I still hear that HORRIBLE doctor who told me that I had MS In such a HORRIBLE way!!! I was seriously just a kid. I hate that I have that memory, but it is seared into my brain forever. It really sucks that it’s true!!!
