hugs belong in posts that aren't all about me. Are you comfortable when you aren't moving?

Cash, does lying down with your snuggly curved pillow thing help the sciatica? I seem to remember that when my back pain went all the way down my sciatic nerve, lying on the opposite side with a pillow between my knees helped somewhat.

ION, I just ordered an assload of Xmas gifties from Villainess soaps. Yum.

Called PCP. No luck. Am about to burst into tears from frustration.

Jessica, your PCP won't give you a scrip for BC pills that you already take? Even if s/he didn't prescribe them, it should *not* be a big deal.

I'm feeling a need to wield a cluestick.

I know, right? It's not like I'm asking for a MORPHINE prescription.

Jess, this is insane. I am filled with fury for you.

Cash, my hips and pelvis are having remembered twitches for you.

I saw a young-ish female OB who had two small children. If she winds up leaving the practice (she's gone part time as of a few months ago, because her commute involved an airplane), I'll probably try to find another OB/GYN who is youngish and has small children. Though I guess the last part isn't a deal breaker unless I go completely off my rocker and decide more children are a good idea.

The resident who I had in L&D kicked ass, but she was a resident, so I can't keep her.

Um...Jessica, that's ridiculous! I'm so sorry you're having such a difficult time.

I've been on the same freaking pills for TEN YEARS. I don't take ANY other medication except for the occasional Claratin or Advil. There is exactly ZERO chance of a dangerous drug interaction or side effect.

The really funny part is that my pharmacy (Eckerd's) is on fillmypillsnow.org's Good list. So I can't even blame this on conservative morality -- it's pure simple incompetence.

My next step is to email my mother and see if she can pull in a favor from one of the docs she works with.

Cash, does icing help? I have genetic sciatic-screwed-ness, and sometimes icing it will help to calm the flare-up a bit. (I got nothing for the other thing).

Jess, I got nothing. (Except extreme indignation and irritation on your behalf. This is ridiculous.)

that is way too crazy Jessica

I have also folded one load of laundry and called the water heater guys to tell them that thier installation passed inspection.

Not sure there is time for a shower before work
