My test for thyroid problems came back fine. I can’t remember the other blood tests numbers . I believe most things are low, but not enough for bluecross to pay for additional meds. I am going to try to go to sleep tonite without the ambien. It was giving me blackouts and I’m wondering if it isn’t screwin with my awake time. Gordo made that suggestion and I’m gonna try. Today I called the doc to have him do more paperwork and got in an argument cause he didn’t want to do more paperwork…asswipe. But later I was talking with an insurance person who didn’t sound confident with me and I ended up getting into it with her too…..So leads me to believe some of this is my fault. Or ribavarin fault….It’s cold grey and windy here, I’m just gonna sit on the sofa and do some quilting. and chill. Thanks Juanita, Mary Ann
