the good news is i really like the bristol cream, i drank a lot last night. it helped get rid of some of the pain. wouldn't it be funny if i turned into a drunk like my father lol. he was no longer drinking in his seventies. all those calories.
i still had a stomach ache through the night. i forgot to take my laxative last night. i hate my walker. i am not sure when i will schedule next p.t. session. my leg still hurts but it is much better but i can hardly walk without it.
yesterday i got a big shock. i had to pay 375 for a medication. this is new. the pharmacist cheerily said i will only have to pay around 970 more. on monday i am going to apply for praulent's patience assistance program.
life is a bed of roses with mostly thorns.
i hope i can read now. i feel so miserable physically and mentally.
