Guest guest Posted May 29, 2001 Report Share Posted May 29, 2001 I don't remember if I replied to this.. I'm trying to play email ketchup. claudine said <<. I don't care what your gastro nurse says, to me 5+ anything is HIGH>> Yes I agree, esp from all the literature I've read online. You know I've become a med article junky lol. I'm trying to wean myself off that too, but sure is hard to do. I'm slowly feeling better overall so maybe it's lowering on it's own (the thyroid). And great news... HUBBY GOT A JOB!!!! With a signing bonus, sure will help us. He starts June 11. Unemployment just isn't much ya know. Hopefully we can negotiate some of the past due house payments with the mortgage company and keep the house. If not, oh well, it will be sad to lose the house, but with the economy the way it is, maybe for the best. However, as high as apartment and housing is here in Dallas/Ft. Worth, they are almost the same as my house payment. Hopefully this Thursday he'll find out what kind of medical insurance they will have. He said they had several hmo and pos to choose from. I HATE HMO and would almost rather go to a free clinic... almost lol. And hopefully it won't be like Pacificare with a lot of pre-existing clauses. I'm gonna have to see if my primary has some samples to help me thru next month, cuz by the time we buy hubby's meds (heart/cholesterol stuff) and mine (antid, sinus, fioricet etc), we've spent a lot more than we get on unemployment. I will be checking out where I can get some help with those too and we've taken advantage of the Mission Arlington (texas) where they hand out food to people without too much hassle. To get food from a shelter, we have to qualify for food stamps. I'm still miffed at my gastro for not signing my next 6 months of temp handicap parking. I'm still so heat intolerant it's unreal. If our little window unit in the bedroom goes out, I'll have to move somewhere. <sigh> ick ick ick / Andromeda Gurl/ Alleypat Grand Prairie, Tx, USA, Earth http://members.home.com/andromedagurl ICQ: 12631861 AOL IM: DallasAlleyPat MSN: PJHauldren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 30, 2001 Report Share Posted May 30, 2001 AlleyPat.... Tell me about your heat intolerance. I've assumed it is part of the hep because over the last 7ish years, I've really become intolerant of the heat and suffer my way through the summer. Tatezi > I'm still so heat intolerant it's unreal.
