Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In  

[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.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Definitely don't let this drop if you don't have a uti, like others here have said, there could be other causes.

Oh, I won't. The symptoms are too intense to ignore. The NP said the next step would probably be a CT scan of my lower abdomen if it turns out to not be a UTI.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

it recent years I have been "making my own yogurt" by getting the nonfat plain yogurt in the grocery store, taking it home, straining it overnight to get excess moisture out, then adding fresh fruit and a bit of honey. thick yogurt with fresh fruit and just a bit of sweet is perfect.

cut to today's lunch adventure when I got some light yoplait blueberry yogurt. It was so fucking sweet I couldn't take it. Done. I had to toss it out. I guess I accidentally have been spoiling myself.

Always Anti-fascist!

I've developed an allergy to Bactrim, so I'm lucky the UTI phase is calmer now.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

OH MY GOD.

I have ongoing yoghurt issues, because I can't find enough of the right stuff. Apparently if you want other than plain or vanilla in quantity, Yoplait is the only person with flavours, and they have so much sugar. This is rework every time I go shopping. I shouldn't need to have notes.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

Anyone here know anything about medical coding? I got a really wierd charge on a statement that i suspect was a type-o on a procedure code but the interwebs are not helping much and my call to contest the statement kinda ended with "well, I'll sent it to the review board, that can take a few months, in the meantime your account might be sent to a collection agency..." which kinda peeves for something that I'm 100% certain was not part of my office visit.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I know a little bit -- more peds, but some adult as well; feel free to shoot me an email at my profile addy if you don't want to talk about it on the board (and, yes, that sounds entirely possible; I had a minor tussle with our insurers a while back about a miscoded office visit for Emmett).

Turns out I did have AZO in the medicine cabinet. It expired in October 2011, but because I'm me, I took it. (Honestly, if the pills smelled funky or were crumbly or otherwise lost their structural integrity, I wouldn't have taken them. But they seemed fine, and I figured they may well work. If not, I can run to CVS at lunch tomorrow.)

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Teppy, I hope it helps and you get some answers soon.

I try not to bring this up every month, because I don't want to be (more) annoying, but I am so damn sick of not being pregnant every month.
