Watering my way into...

Here’s an ironic thing…since I have this hypothyroid new thingy for me, my body temperature is always a full degree or more lower than the norm of 98.6F, usually about 97.6F or as low as 96.7F And so I can go out into the pool with its temperature in the 82-84 degree Fahrenheit range and the morning air temperature of around 80-ish and still feel very comfortable, mind you this is all due to the lower thyroid function, amazing? No need for my cooling vest!
Oddly enough I was doing a bit of research on my medications to see what the side affects are.
And to my surprise my Dexilant for my acid reflux or GERD has two that seem to cause some ailments that were new to me, hmm?
Interestingly enough, one is the lower thyroid function and lo and behold my irritated constantly peepers AKA my eyes! But if I stop I might again choke in my sleep, but oddly enough, now get this my thyroid hormone can also cause choking…will I ever win this game of trying to be well?
Under further investigation is many of my meds also cause weight gain, five toll to date…something to think about, hmm?
We all know that I am an investigative type character who when she feels that a wrong has occurred makes sure that it is righted…well today I was vindicated once again.

Another nurse from the Health Department called me back this afternoon, this time a lovely person who is aptly named, Honey.
She called to let me know that it was a mistake and she knew this since she was the nurse who was there when I went in to see ‘doctor wonderful’ on the tenth of May, and that I did not need to make a return trip on the 23rd or 24th what-have-you and she called to rectify my need for refills on all my prescriptions not just the ones that were not filled for more than a one month supply, now for three months each! Ta da!
I know most of you are thinking I lost my cool, well I really did, and shame on me…but if you were in my position on blood pressure and cholesterol medication and had already seen the doctor for full price have you, never ever for free, sometimes even more or about the same as my Neurologist or my Ophthalmologist’s charges which is in the $42 to $62 price range out of my pocket not a co-pay and why it varies was according to how much they do, they explained. Than perhaps you too would be upset with them telling you that you missed an appointment that when they fit you in earlier they should have cancelled and the funny thing is it was crossed off my calendar since they let me come in sooner, how about that, hmm?

Any-who, they're many there who are decent people who have chosen the right profession to help people with respect and understanding and compassion.
My idea of what all healthcare workers should be, wasn’t Florence Nightingale the one that called them 'angels of mercy'?
Maybe not, but that is how I would like to think of all people who chose that field as their profession.
I respect the ones who do what they know is true and right as in all fields of working with the public, why not?

I again have spoken my mind on a topic that has over these last several years has become too much of a need for myself as well as a frustration when not given unselfishly and with the dual respect that I do believe it requires, all I am saying is that as with anything in life respect is a two way street…true?

On that how I think or over-think life’s issues, allow me to be the first to wish you all a very happy good night and ask you kindly to count all your blessings and share all your overages and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?
