hot day with thunderstorms

Hot day with thunderstorms

It’s another hot day today and we had some thunderstorms and rain. It cleared up by 2pm though as I was walking to the station, it was starting to rain again.

My pcp’s RN called me today about the question I asked last night. I have been having some urinary pain and burning all week and I finished antibiotics today. There was an opening at the clinic so I was able to be seen and give another urine sample. I have been having urinary frequency today for some reason. I went an hour before I left the house and when I got to the clinic, I had to go again. The resident I saw suggested I cath after a void to see if I have retained any urine and referred me to urology. I made an appointment with the NP for July. I feel kind of down about this. I think I have been doing ok but  now I don’t know what is happening. I keep having symptoms. I just hope I don’t have to go back to cathing. I hated it.

I walked to the train station and then went to the pharmacy to get some ice cream and my meds. I just wanted some Ben and Jerry’s for dinner. I have food but don’t really feel like making anything. Sox are off today. I guess there isn’t a deductible for my meds this year as I have spent over $500 so far and there hasn’t been a cap. I really wasn’t planning on this. I just spent like $50 on my monthly meds. It adds up quickly and I still haven’t gotten my other blood pressure pill. That will be next week’s expense.

My room is hot and the ceiling fan isn’t doing much. I hate the heat. Yesterday I went food shopping for a few things and forgot to get eggs. I want to buy a steak so I might go to the butcher shop tomorrow. They sell eggs there too so I will pick some up. I didn’t like what I saw at the supermarket for steak selection and the last time I bought steak through peapod it wasn’t good.

I wanted to clear my bed off today but the doctor appointment side railed me. If I don’t go out tomorrow, I will try again. I might just throw stuff where ever. My sister gave me a box that has my high school graduation gown and middle school diploma. The diploma is on a plaque so there is some weight to the box. I have no idea where I will put it. Maybe under my bed. Hope it cools off tonight.

any thoughts?
