Hello everyone, I hope all of you are staying well. I have many who are suffering from colds, flu and even Swine Flu. A friend emailed me today that a friend's husband had passed away last night die to Swine Flu complications. We all need to take precautions, especially those who have weakened Immune systems. So do all that you can to stay away from those who have any symptoms and keep the hand sanitizer with you. Also, wash, wash, and wash your hands some more when in public places or around children.
Since Sunday, I have had a migraine that has been on and off, but mostly on. I have taken, what my Neurologist considers, the equivalent to Treximet and Meclizine for the nausea. I have not been sleeping well, which I believe to be a major trigger for my migraines. It seems no matter what I try I just can't get to and stay asleep. Stress is claiming the hot seat in this matter. I'm concerned over my financial situation, which will change, yet again at the first of the year, due to my insurance premiums. My coverage will not change, but, you guessed it...my premiums will change and my deductible will go up from $100 to $500. Which means I will not be able to go to Emory to see the specialist who I was supposed to be seeing today. Upon receiving a letter the other day telling me that my appointment was change to January 8th, because Dr. Weyand would not be in the office that day, I called to express my disappointment as I have had and waited for that appointment since mid June. I was told first, that she would be at a conference, then when I opposed being rescheduled with a different doctor, that she had actually moved. What is the real truth here, I wonder???? Anyways, I know that there will be plenty of tests that will need to be done, and I will not be able to afford it under my new insurance provisions. I try not to worry, but I am only human, and it just takes over me at times.
I'm certain that there are many here who are experiencing the same story, and I pray for a healthcare solution for all. Me, not being a professional on the subject, and just giving my very humble oppinion....well, I think if The People, employers and Insurance companies are opposed to national healthcare system, they would be more in tuned to give The People what they need, not continue to take it away bit by bit. Are you happy with your insurance situation? Please comment.
Well, I'm getting off of my soapbox and I'm gonna try to go to sleep tonight. I pray for each of you daily, anyone who is impacted by a chronic illness or pain, and bid you many Blessings straight from Almighty God.
Take care, and stay away from "sick".
