So yay! I got my prescriptions filled today. Now I just have to wait until 2/2 for my next one because I am two days late for refilling my narcotic meds thanks to the blizzard or the inept medical assistant. And I am 8 pills short. I am not happy about this. The doc decreased the pill count to 112 for a 28 day supply. I am screwed if I have a pain flare up. My doc refuses to give me 2 pills at a time, which is what I take. I have told him this numerous times but he refuses to change the script to reflect that. I am so annoyed. I am just happy the pills cost less this month. I have 2 extra dollars, yay!
I see the stupid nurse practitioner for my next refill. That is going to be fun because she is an airhead. I probably will have to have a drug test as it has been a while. I am not worried about it. I have been taking the meds that I am supposed to be taking.
I got into an argument with my mother today over my money. She doesn’t understand that at least $70-80 USD goes toward my prescriptions every month and that is all I have to play with. Yes I bought a printer and a few other items that I probably shouldn’t have but I need these items to make me happy. And I needed a haircut because my cousin always gives me “female” haircuts and there is no arguing with him about this. I sometimes allow him to give me a haircut because it free, but it is not what I want so I rather just pay for what I want. I told my mother I spend most of my money on bills. I have to pay medicare, my private insurance (which went up $16), cell phone, cable, therapist, and student loans. I am not left with too much left over. I really wanted to buy Chinese food this month but I am broke. It will have to wait until next month.
I still have two prescriptions I need to pick up, but luckily, they are not expensive. Just 4 dollars. Then I am set for the month. I really should look into a state plan like Mass Health to see if they can help my prescription costs. But I am not sure I can afford them right now. My cousin pays $94 a month for it and there is no way I can afford that unless I cut my private insurance.
I am still waiting for my printer to be shipped but I just checked the status. Seems because of the weather (it has started snowing again), my shipment might be delayed. I guess that is good because I haven’t cleared the space I want to put it. I have been lazy about cleaning. I still have to go through my big box in my room to see if my Lincoln DVD is in it. If it is not, I have totally misplaced it and I will be sad. I love that movie.
I was in an okay mood until the scrapple with my mother over money. Now I am just depressed and want to die. I hate being broke every month and spending so much money on my meds. It was fine when I was working but I no longer have that luxury. Plus the thoughts of transitioning are weighing on me. That always increases my wanting to die.
Ankle is going to be hurting me later on today. I went up and down the stairs a little bit too much today. I haven’t eaten that much today. I am hungry but I don’t know what to make so I don’t make anything. Plus we are low on eggs so I can’t make my favorite sandwich. I went to Walgreens and they were clean out. No eggs. I probably will make some bacon later if I can muster up enough energy to do it. I just hate cleaning the pans.
