Laura, Fun Theatre!

And you are totally right about the acupuncture. I'm calling my buddy whose practice is a block and a half from my house. She came several times last year while I was sick, and I trust her completely.

In the meanwhile, I did opt for the Zyrtec and can say with a cautious YaY that it is, in fact, the bomb diggety.

My mind is clearer, my nose is drier and I no longer feel as if I am gargling glass.

Awesome stop gap until I can get in for the pokes.

Sigh. What a relief.

oops, wrong thread!

eeeexcellent

Allergy people: Allegra is now over-the-counter. Allegra rocks my socks, and I am willing to pay brand-name price for it until CVS has a store brand (and they might already; I don't know, because I haven't gone to get any yet).

Seldane, from way back in the 1980s, was the kick-ass best antihistamine EVER. And they took that shit off the market because it was making people's hearts kind of...stop. Bah.

I need to call the acupuncturist about my migraines. I wonder if she could also fix my migraines.

There was a headache drug called Cope that I would have bought heavily if I'd known it was going to pulled. I can't find any references to it, because I'd like to see what it's active ingredient was. Darned stupid common words being used as names.

My migraine drug (Midrin) recently stopped being manufactured because it is so old that it didn't actually go through the testing-->approval process that the FDA has now, so suddenly the FDA was all "oh, there's no proof of efficacy, blah blah blah."

EXCEPT HOW IT STOPPED MY HEADACHES. I got your efficacy right there, buddy.

So now I take fioricet, which is decent but not great. So I'm going to give acupuncture a shot. (I keep saying that but haven't yet called her. Soon, I swear!)

Now I gotta go make cookies for Tim's ex's son. I am going to load him down with food and dog food and water and paper towels (you need the last if you have the first 3).

I made the Bobby-Hill-squealing-like-a-girl sound (and flappy hands) when I saw the signs in CVS.
