Validation!!!

 

Anyone out there familiar with off use, use in medication?

Well, I have been on it for about a decade since I was prescribed Gabapentin around then for neuropathy pain and extreme spasms. You see, Gabapentin was originally made for Epileptic seizures.https://healthprep.com/topics/medications/overview-gabapentin/?xcid=3343&utm_source=bing&utm_medium=ppc&utm_campaign=370485941&utm_content=1275434205372494&utm_term=gabapentin&msclkid=f34a273b38381aa751ac464b22944de1

In the early days, it was considered off use for MS, Multiple sclerosis.

Any-who, that is what Humana was claiming in the ten-page letter they sent me two days ago about the Lidocaine 5% patches, and that because of that it was denied for my current need. That letter, novella, arrived on October 19th but dated the 14th, and the very next day another arrived two pages dated October 15th with an approval for the prescription to be filled.

CRAZY!!! Why do this to their patients, clients, customers???

I had spent two days after I was released from the hospital after my CAT scans from my fall arguing with them, you might recall? A lower dosage is sold OTC that is 4% Lidocaine and 1% Menthol under the Icyhot brand, it was ten dollars plus change for five patches, so Hubby brought them home.

My prescription is ready at the local pharmacy now, 30 count for a co-pay of $28.61 the amount that they denied being valid the next day!

Thus my title, "VALIDATION!!!"

Moving on...

As you can see Hubby finished painting all three red pots navy blue and I have planted the two larger matching ones with Mother-in- laws' tongue and wandering Jew clippings. Right now they are extremely heavy, and with my wonky hands and back Hubby will probably move them down to the end of the pool with his hand truck. The larger pot that has yet to be determined if its finish is salvageable, it was scraped severely, and Hubby was trying to fix my beautiful turquoise pot that held the lemon tree he had propagated from our ye old one! That one is planted in the new pond garden, but looks iffy if it will make it???😢

Moving on once again...

Lastly... we had a morning sunrise that was okay after the full moon pic below it!

And so we must go for now.

Please be smart, as well as safe.

Have a very pleasant day.

Count those blessings, and we will too!

Next time, please be here or be square, ya hear!

Aussie, say good day!

I am Aussie, not being from Australia, but American-made, I will comply anyway for the fun of it, so I will say, good day!

I am called Aussie because my Mom asked a sixteen-year-old girl who had been looking at me in the crate at the adoption site that day what she thought I should be named? Mom apparently asked her age but not her name...ha! And without hesitation, the teenager had said, Aussie! She was just looking, by the way, so my Mom did not steal me from her.
We never did find out the girl's name, and Mom liked the name Aussie too. We have since found out that it is a very common name, but it is still just right for me! My parents think that I am uncommon though, some might say even unique! I do like that.
I am an Australian Shepherd. And here is an interesting factoid about me, I was supposed to be a miniature Australian Shepherd, but as you might know, I AM NOT! Although I am now three years old, so I am the baby, though I tip the scales at around seventy pounds, HA! I must admit, a very big one!
I was three months old when Mommy and Daddy adopted me. I had been taken out of a hoarder's home in the Carolinas with my litter. 
Below is my new PIC, which had been taken on the birthday that I share with my Dad, but Dad is much, much older than me!!! I was the first to be adopted, February 16, 2018, on his brother's birthday.

3 months................................................ 3 years

No tail/tale publishing, circa 2018.

Get it? I was born without a tail, preferable for all Australian Shepherds; only one out of five are born that way!

                                           

Hello, I am Bella in the picture above, a Maltese Yorkie, a Morkie, and I might be five years old. I am the middle child, so I am what you would expect, with all those idiosyncrasies that go along with all that! Being the only girl has its rewards, as well as difficulties... We are all rescues, so no one knows for sure our ages. I was turned in by my previous family, stating that I was misbehaving with their elderly dog, they had said I was driving him crazy! I was the second to be adopted on 8/18/18, on clear out the shelters' day!
Oh, by the way, my record's called me Belle, and so for no known reason, Mom decided I was more of a Bella; beautiful either way!

Please don't forget me, I am Chance, pictured above, a Bichon Frise! I am six years old, so they think, and the eldest, and I like getting up early with Mom and Aussie. Bella sleeps in with Dad, till after seven most days, even later! I enjoy a good tug-a-war on the ropes that Dad had twisted for Aussie and me, and sometimes even Bella plays too! I was the last to be adopted, on January 23, 2020. 

I was wandering the neighborhood for days and then I saw Aussie and Bella in their living-room window, so I hung out there... 

The animal control lady had been called and came out to see if I had a chip I.D. with her machine, and Dad told her that he wanted to name me Chance. His reason being, that if no one claimed me, I want to give him a second chance! So that is how I got the name Chance! The Animal Welfare League checked me out and kept me for sixteen days until I was allowed to be adopted. Good evening?  

Easy as Aussie, Bella, Chance, now you got it!
