Ugh. Looks like a medication of mine increased ten-fold in price and now insurance doesn't appear to be covering it. It's a generic.

I'm going to get him more of them and parcel them out as gifts for as long as possible, because he loves them and, really, what else am I going to get him?

Awww!

Boo! Healthcare: we're doing it wrong.

Good grief!!! Is there another similar one they do cover? Or can your doctor contact them and ask for preapproval? If not, try the manufacturer or good rx?

Good grief, Gud. It's all so effing frustrating with drugs.

I fucked things up last night. I'm just a terrible, useless person. Saying this here is probably another example of that. I just shouldn't talk to anyone. Not sure how to make the stress stop.

That is awful, Gud. My mom went through this with one of her drugs. Went up 10x, and it was an ancient widely used generic drug. Healthcare needs to be fixed, but I am afraid it has fallen down the priority list. Ugh.

In much happier news, today is Fred Pete's birthday. Haven't seen him in far too long, but sincerely hope he is having a wonderful day.

I have solid evidence that you are, in reality, a terrific and incredibly talented, dedicated, and generous soul, Gud.

It really sucks about your medication. I HATE HATE HATE our healthcare system. HATE. With a fiery passion of a thousand white hot suns.

But you, Gud, are not a bad person, you are an amazingly talented, generous, loving and wonderful person.

M is sick, he's had.. GI issues since last night. No fever, no other real symptoms except he's tired, which is understandable considering he was getting up every few hours last night.

I got up and went and got electrolyte water, BRAT diet stuff and I kept having to pull up my shorts since they wanted to slide off...time to donate those I guess.

Neither his mom or I are sick so maybe it's food poisoning. I am keeping an eye out for any other symptoms but so far it's just more like food poisoning or a stomach bug.
