Title: Its been over 14 months now
Post by mynm156 on Apr 12^th, 2005, 8:46pm

My cycle started Feb. 2004 just like it pretty much always did the only difference is it hasnt stopped. It didnt take me very long to figure out I had gone chronic. I did my taxes over 5K on Dr. Visits and Meds. That is with Insurance. CT scans MRI, 2 sleep studies, Xrays full blood work ups. (thank god that was covered by insurance with no co pay.) However, I paid 4k in insurance premiums. What bothers me most is I am just getting use to it. It hits me and I scream/cry take my drugs and then Blow my nose. Then wait for it to all happen again. Gets old after a while. Had been seasonal for 10 years. I have a couple pretty good Drs that help me.

I guess that is has just been a bad 14 months. ( last month has been brutal)

Good Vibes all

I'm sorry to officially welcome you to the land of chronics. :(
Have you considered kudzu or shrooms?
How about you, Eric?

Sorry to hear that - Uguyz are all heroes to me. Personally, I don't discriminate!! (bad joke).

We also pay 4K yearly for ins (each) but after finding out this week that my atrial chambers R enlarged & I've sprung a leak (pun intended) I'm just glad I've got the ins. , and a job to help pay for it. God bless all.
