Rambling Friday

"This is your Walmart Pharmacy calling.  A member of your household has three prescriptions ready for pick up.  The total amount of your purchase is $374.00."  Now if that's not enough to give one a heart attack, it's enough to make one sick.  Sick of having no insurance because the premiums are just too expensive.  And Obama wants to force us to have health insurance.  I wonder how much that health insurance will help with the cost of medications.  I also wonder how much the insurance will cost.  I won't get into my anger over everything that got tacked into his health care law.

One prescription is for hormones, one for high cholestrol and one for depression.  The cost is enough to CAUSE depression.   Those meds are not the only ones I take.   My meds alone cost over $500 per month.  Discount cards don't help much at all.   The meds for fibro cost over $150. 

I spent Wednesday and Thursday in bed because the pain was so bad and I couldn't function because I had no energy whatsoever.  My legs felt like wet noodles and just wouldn't let me go up and down the stairs at times.  If you don't have fibromyalgia, thank God above.  It's awful.  I was ready to drag out the crutches.  God is good though and I have faith that this flare up will end soon.  I'm hoping today is much better.

Andrew comes over this afternoon at 6.  I'm looking forward to seeing him and getting hugs, kisses and love.  He has a hard time understanding that sometimes Nana just has to stay in bed.  He got some games for his birthday, so maybe he will play games with me!  We're supposed to have rain today and tomorrow so he won't be able to play outside much, if at all.

Prayers are requested and appreciated.  Hope your Friday and weekend are great!
