Health Insurance Problems
I have 4 meds i need to take everyday. 1 that is if dont take i will die. Its that simple.
I have to take Cortef 4 times a day everyday more if i get sick. If i throw up or get diarhea i am admitted in the hospital with ivs of cortef. My pituitary gland and adrenal gland does not work and make the stuff to keep me alive.
Picked up my meds Friday only 4 pills of Cortef instead of 120. 1 days worth.
Oxycodone 28 pills or 7 days worth. I can live with that. Insurance lady will put me on with a man and i will cuss him like a dog. Im from the south i cant speak ugly to a women. My Dad would get out of the grund and kick my ass and go back and on his way back say dont make me come back. Next time im not playing.
Sleeping pills do not seem like a big deal. All i can say is sleep 2 hours a day for a few weeks and you will wish you were dead. For some reason i can not shut my brain down for the night.
Last is they gave me no morphine for the month.
All will be fixed Monday though.

Sounds exactly like me Dave. It is seriously debilitating.
Got about 3 hours sleep last night. Was awake for hours. I can keep my eyes closed, and rest. (But) Actually getting some sleep, is seriously elusive.

Yep the no sleep thing can really get you down. Since my cardiologist has been writing prescriptions for Ambien for me I've not had that problem. The really good thing about Ambien is no hangovers. Other sleeping pills that I've taken leave me feeling like I was drunk the night before. 0 -

Every single time I have asked for Ambien, (Cardiologist, Primary Care provider, Nurse Practioner at work,) they look at me like I am asking for Crack.
No one, will prescribe it.0 -

My family doctor acts the same way as your doctors. My cardiologist is just the opposite. He sees no problem with prescribing a medicine that works. Since I've been sleeping I don't have the problem with heart arrhythmia which is a really good side effect of being able to sleep.
I asked my family doctor just what his problem was with prescribing Ambien and he said he's not supposed to prescribe it to anyone over 65 years old because it increases the possibility of falling. I said so you'd rather I just die from no sleep instead of falling?
I don't believe the 65 year old thing or else my cardiologist wouldn't be able to write it either. My family doctor has continued to try to get me to do a sleep study thing which I think is the real reason...MONEY! Plus he's just a horse's ass!0 -
I don't know about yall, but I'm thrilled the government is in charge of my healthcare.
Anytime I have to fill out a form that asks who to contact in case of emergency or who is my family doctor I put:
Senator Mark Warner
703 Hart Senate Office Building
Washington, DC 20510
Phone: 202-224-2023
Senator Tim Kaine
231 Russell Senate Office Building
Washington, D.C. 20510
Phone: (202) 224-4024
Representative Morgan Griffith
2202 Rayburn HOB
Washington, DC 20515
Phone: (202) 225-38610 -
Its crazy i will lay in bed thinking about things that make no sense. What i did today and what i want to get done tomorrow, then read for a while. Take more Meletonin which stopped working about a year ago.
Plus start thinking about things which makes no sense and then into deeper things which should be never thought of.
Then i will go in the living room and sleep on the couch or in a spare bedroom. When i get like this my wife hates me staying in bed because i toss and turn and mess her sleep up also.
I dont work so her sleep is more important than mine. To me it is any way.0
