I have had my fill of the week I've had
NO let me restate that, it's been a hell
of a WEEK I've had to deal with.
From trying to get the meds they want
me on to the insulin pens I have to have
to waiting on the dr calls I haven't got.
I swear to be danmed what is the hold
up or the problem?? are they stoned?
or from another planet, I just don't get it.
My meds they have me on I asked for a
refill & they come off with off the wall crap
that I had already picked them up, REALLY?
I don't abuise my meds I'm not a druggy &
I keep up with when I pick my meds up so
that was the START of my week to begin with.
A few days later I get a call from the drug
store to tell me my meds was ready for
pick up, Yea right, that's what I thought.
Now they are putting me on a fast acting
insulin to add to the rest of my meds I'm
on & the long lasting insulin pen I'm on.
I've been home 4 mons & came home
with a HIGH sugar level, but it's taken
them this long to get me on what I need.
I swear these people have their heads
in their butts or something, it shouldn't
take this long to get the stuff I need.
I have been waiting PATIENTLY on
getting things done without making
a fuss or pissing them off BUT? ?
I don't want to raise a fuss cause I
don't want to lose my Dr, but if this
keeps up I may HAVE to get another
Dr, which sucks cause they all suck.
I had better care in the Hosp than I
am getting with my primary dr, she
seen me right after I came home.
She read the full hosp report on all
I went through & it took her (4 mons)
to get me the insulin pens I needed.
They talk about how bad Diabeties is
& how it can mess up your heart &
kiddneys, & your WHOLE flipping LIFE.
But yet take their ever loving time to get
the meds you need KNOWING how high
your sugar is just coming out of the hosp.
I was suppose to get a dr's call today but
AGAIN NOPE that didn't happen either
cause the Dr was swamp in surgeries.
So that is sheduled for Mon at this point
I don't think any 1 has my health on their
minds & just talk like they do which sucks.
I know there's a lot of sick people & I'm
not the only 1 with health issues but is
it too much to ask to do your danm job?
I've been writing down what I find on the
internet about what I can eat to lower my
sugar but you know how that goes right?
I worked out in the cabin today to get my
mind off all the craziness I'm dealing with
nothing seems to be going right dr wise.
It's like they WANT you to get sicker B-4
they get off their ass's & DO SOMETHING
then it's TOO LATE to fix the problem.
I didin't ask to get sick, I didn't wish this to
happen to me, but yet here I am & can't
get things done, what am I to do to get
my health back on track? do you know?

I'm so sorry the doctor didn't call when she was supposed to. I hope she calls on Monday. You should have your medications right away, not wait for several months for them. I hope they get it all sorted out.
I'm prediabetic. I'm looking for ways to make certain I don't become fully diabetic. That doesn't work for me. In my search for the right food to eat, I found a wonderful Keto bread with zero sugar, 9 carbs, and 8 fiber. It's also 30 calories. It's by Healthy Life. They also have cinnamon and Hawaiian bread. All no sugar and Keto friendly. Another thing I do is use zero calorie sugar. Swerve or Monkfruit. They're just as good as cane sugar but better for you. You can eat healthy and keep your sugar under control.

Can you get your medicines from a different pharmacy? I know Mike's Mom had hers transferred to being delivered directly to her home through her social security plan. She only has to go to the pharmacy if she is sick and needs an anti biotic now. When Mike's dad was alive, all his diabetic medicine, and others were delivered on time. Not sure if you are old enough but if so maybe check into it. Hope you get your medicine soon.

Where are you again Gayle, Florida?
My youngest sister is diabetic and has the same issues you are talking about.
The docs and pharmacies do not seem to give a hoot about her health.
I am so sorry you are dealing with is..
The world has gone mad.

@2ndchances24 I'm happy you let them know because it's worth letting them know.
I hope you get all you need as soon as possible.

It does seem to take a long time to get anything done with the NHS these days. I know somebody who waited six months for a scan result earlier this year, he was going out of his mind with worrying about it. They said it would take less than six weeks. I think there are too many people not doing their jobs properly these days.

I have to agree with you, no 1 should go through
what the sick goes through to stay healthy.
