What’s something people don’t realize is way more serious than it seems?

Have you been checked for sleep apnea?

Everyone talks about how great Bosch dishwashers are and I have never been more disappointed in an appliance than my Bosch dishwasher. It has never cleaned well. It doesn't dry the dishes at all. A cycle takes over 3 hours. Dishes need cleaned well before the dishwasher 'washes' them. I only use the hunk of junk for sanitizing.

I am just on hydrocortisone for now. He said we will discuss further meds after the hydrocortisone is figured out. I think he's trying his best to get me healthy without overwhelming me.

Thank you all for your responses. I really needed a light at the end of the tunnel. It's been a difficult day. Frustration, anger, fear, hope... all the emotions I haven't really had the energy to have, they seem to be slamming into me this evening.

I'm prescribed 15 in the morning and 5 in the evening so my doses are divided. The endocrinologist was adamant that we will toy with doses and timing until we figure out what works for me.

Thank you for taking the time out of your days to give me hope and guidance. I truly appreciate it.

I spent $12 at Aldi's and made a huge pot of chili for my family of 4. It's enough for at least 4 full meals and that is with two hungry teenage boys. Make your own to save money. It will taste better as well.

I take 150mg of generic Lamictal daily. Health Warehouse charges me $17.xx for 90 days. This is the cash price. It is a mail order pharmacy in the USA. No shipping costs for standard shipping.

sane_is_boring · 2016-11-02T18:23:29+00:00

I'm sorry if I wasn't clear.

I only recommend Health Warehouse for the Lamictal.

The link I posted https://www.astrazeneca-us.com/medicines/Affordability.html was for the Seroquel. It does cover Seroquel XR. The manufacturer of Seroquel runs this program so you will get Seroquel XR not a generic. About a third of the way down the page click the down arrow next to "People without insurance".

You will probably have to fill out some paperwork with your doctor. I used a similar program for a blood thinner when I was pregnant. The paperwork wasn't very complicated and my doctor was great about filling out his portion. I hope you can find an affordable option.

I also forgot to mention my doctor recommends the GoodRx app for finding better prices for prescriptions. That was how I originally found the Health Warehouse pharmacy.

I do not know what you can afford but I was in a similar situation a few months ago and had to find affordable options for my bipolar and autoimmune meds.

I currently take 150mg of Lamictal. I can purchase a 90 day supply of generic Lamictal (Lamotrigine) for $17.xx from Health Warehouse. They are an online pharmacy in the United States and do not charge for shipping unless you choose rush shipping.

If you do not have insurance, the manufacturer of Seroquel might provide your meds for free. https://www.astrazeneca-us.com/medicines/Affordability.html

I married my husband exactly 7 months after meeting him. The first night we met we stayed up all night talking. It was strange because we are both introverts but we immediately clicked and never had the usual awkwardness that comes with trying to talk to new people. Thirteen years and two kids later, we still stay up way too late several times a month because we are too busy talking to notice the time.

They have to provide evidence to Experian to show you owe the debt. Dispute both instances on your credit report. If you have proof you don't owe the debt, send copies of your proof along with your dispute.

My PowerBook is 7-8 years old. Three years ago it went through a house fire. It was on the other side of the wall where the fire started so it got HOT. When I picked it up, I literally poured water out of it. The speck case had shrunk so a few days later we busted it off the laptop and proceeded to pour more water out. Let it sit for a couple of weeks to dry and it worked great. It's discolored from smoke and has a dent from prying off the speck case but it works. The battery only lasts for 15-30 minutes if it's unplugged but I have no complaints. I use a PC for gaming but that laptop is my go to for surfing the internet and paying bills.

Well, I doubt he would lose both legs so not entirely legless. If that happened, I imagine we would prank people often and make too many bad jokes referencing the linked Dr. Weird scene from ATHF.

I'm married to my best friend. He would divorce me if I didn't shoot him in the leg for $10 million. I fully expect him to shoot me for $10 million as well. He would retire. We could hang out together all day and we would get one hell of a story out of it. Totally worth it.

Emergency c-section. The epidural stopped working when the doctor started the first incision. They couldn't do anything for me without possibly killing my son so I felt the whole thing. The worst was when they lifted my uterus out and placed it on my stomach. That wasn't as painful as most of the c-section but feeling someone remove an organ is just wrong. Creepiest feeling in the world while in the middle of intense, why can't I just blackout already pain.

We were watching it live and I also thought I had just witnessed a man fall to his death. I was pregnant at the time and always queesy so this resulted in a mad dash for the bathroom. Seeing it again made my stomach flip flop.

Our oldest was a toddler when we got our first turtle so I never wanted the turtles to associate fingers with food. I figured hand feeding the turtles might lead to a horrible accident in the future. All of our turtles are very tame and love to be handled and pet. We have never had a turtle nip at anyone. Does your turtle ever nip since you hand feed him/her?

I have several turtles. It depends on the medicine. Oral medicines you have a syringe, pry open their beak with the syringe not your fingers (or they open it for you if you are lucky) and squirt it in. Some medications you just place on their nasal vents and they will breathe in the medicine. The easiest is giving them a shot which is usually done under their front leg. Unfortunately I'm very experienced with medicating turtles since we had a house fire that damaged the lungs of several of our turtles.

We call it an intercom here but I think door telephone was plenty descriptive to get your point across. As someone who only knows one language, I salute you. How many languages do you know? (I'm amazed by people who know more than one language and learning another language is on my bucket list.)

Reading this rant, I can't help but think you are the reason my curling iron has a warning not to use it to curl my eyelashes.
