Or is it? Nah, a FB,
Facebook, friend has a site that we can let our hair down on and chat until the
cows come home about our ills, mostly MS, Multiple Sclerosis.
And one gal was concerned
since she would be going on IV steroids for a relapse, which is a usual method
to get you out of it and fast!
Everyone was chiming in with
their own personal experiences including me, been there done that… me at my
finest, Miss Know-It-All!
Unbeknownst to the training
conversers on that page and in that interim I was waiting on hearing back from
my own neuro, since my lefty eye has been misbehaving and I even went to the
eye doc last Friday for just that problem that had been causing me problems a
few days prior to our visit then.
But as we have it he felt it
was my dry eye and a slight case of conjunctivitis, but since I was having
coming and going blurriness and socket pain and I was concerned about ON, Optic
Neuritis, he asked me when I would be seeing my neurologist next, and I said
next month, he said maybe I should move that appointment up. He said that he
has no way to see my optic nerve, well duh doc. You see, it was a coming and a
going… for the next few days until Wednesday when it appeared to be longer
between those comings and goings and pain et al…
My neuro did call back this
morning, I had been speaking to her nurse/tech and this is was odd because at
first I thought that is who I thought called, but no it was her, herself my
neurologist. She asked me again about my symptoms and she said it was better to
err on the side of caution or some such thing and so she said she would call in
the prescription plus add in the insulin.
Yep, my diabetic reaction and
more weight gain just when I am trying so hard to lose it all!
The nurse will be coming here
tomorrow with my delivery from the pharmacy of the IV 1000 MG. Solu Medrol
shipped overnight and this time the better deal for the over the counter
insulin was at Walmart! Injections via Walgreen’s as well as the Solu Medrol,
nurse from the Matrix, and yes, that is their company name. My out of pocket
expenses were again a better deal than that ridiculous insurance by a few
hundred bucks! And I just paid them their $432 again, for next month, crazy?
As you can well imagine this
is not that easy to do with one eye gone and the other playing hide and seek.
So now that you are up to
speed and I wish that I weren’t, denial works for so many.
But if I were two for two,
eyesight loss I wouldn’t be able to do this and that would make me oh so very,
very sad… darn that Dragon of mine, with its autocorrect mentality!
At least than I would have an
out.
Any-who, on that note of me,
my, mine business of what you see is what you get, allow me to be the very
first to wish all of you a very happy good night and ask you to kindly count all
your blessings and share all your overages and we will too!
And next time please be here
or be square, ya hear?!
