Spike's Bitches 42: Which question do you want me to answer first?  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Does the unit have a drain, vw?

It does have a drain. I have no idea how to check for blockage without removing the unit, which I can't do on my own.

It has a screen filter. I've cleaned that recently.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

Greg is off on Sundays and Mondays, so today is my Monday, and it's behaving like one. Aidan jumped on my head until I told him to drive like Gordon. And then brake like Gordon. And then drive like Gordon. And I had to answer to Percy and Kara had to answer to James because she was wearing red pajamas. Kara started the day whining because she wanted to wear heavy tights and I told her no. Reduced herself to tears within 5 minutes because I'm mean and hateful and the tights wouldn't fit right when she pulled on the waistband (I TOLD her to pull them up the legs, showed her how, so she demanded that I do it. As if Miss-I'm-Almost-Seven). Aidan got angry with me because I wouldn't stand over him at his father's computer and show him all the screen savers. And my doctor's office won't answer the telephone.

I tried to call in and ask for a script yesterday, explained why I wanted it, waited for a call back for an hour, finally went to run errands, got home after the doctor's office closed to find a message that they want to know why I want it. I repeated it three times! This morning I woke up to another infection that responds to a different medication and I don't know if I can take the two together and I don't want to ask because then they'll want to see me and I don't have the time to go, wouldn't be able to wrangle the babies, and don't have the car.

I feel all hulk smash today.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Oh, Deena. I hate Monday, in any guise.

Tuesday! You are on the list!

Thank you. I feel comforted.

So, since Steph can't be around during the day... does anyone else know if it's a good or a bad idea to take Flagyl and Difuclan at the same time?

“Not dead yet!”

Looks like the outer bands from Fay are beginning to reach us. Glad I went grocery shopping yesterday.

And yeah, Deena-- Monday sucks, even if it tries to disguise itself as a Tuesday.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I spent most of Monday at doctors' appointments. Including chemical cauterization to stop chronic nosebleeds.

It isn't as painful as it sounds because anesthetic is applied first. But it's weird to walk around for several hours with a numb right nostril.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Tinfoil Army helmets for everyone!

Deena, my understanding of Diflucan is it's pretty benign with other meds. This is the list of interactions I've found:

Oral hypoglycemics
Coumarin-type anticoagulants
Phenytoin
Cyclosporine
Rifampin
Theophylline
Terfenadine
Cisapride
Astemizole
Rifabutin
Tacrolimus
Short-acting benzodiazepines
Oral hypoglycemics

You know what I'd do, though? Call and ask your pharmacist. They would know.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

So, since Steph can't be around during the day... does anyone else know if it's a good or a bad idea to take Flagyl and Difuclan at the same time?

I keep sneaking and looking at the board during the day. Just not for very long.

You can take them together; in fact, some doctors will prescribe Diflucan right along with an antibiotic, because, in a lot of women, the antibiotic kills off necessary vaginal bacteria along with the bad bacteria, leading to a nasty yeast infection. But the Diflucan heads that off at the pass.
