INSOMNIACS place to talk in the wee hours

Oh okay, never mind....  You found her Sass....  It was AnimalLover, but you answered her....  Good THING, because I might have led her astray...

I have to go get more dressed now.... put on my scocks before I wander out in the night....  I like that word too Cammi.

222222222222nd!!   What do you mean?  WHAT friends dropped you and for why?  You don't need FB anyway..... do you?   You want us to come out there and tell them a thing or two?  I mean 2222222222?  

Okay.... re-iterate once more.... what project?   

OMG 2md u got unfriended==those SOB'S u don't need anyone of them. That' just plain crazy.  U've got us and us and u'r other friends--forget about them.

Paw OK how u started the artist classes sounded so peaceful, then u mention the wine and said I should look into that. U think u fooled us.? Nope

Dutch I can barely keep up with my meds and u have to take one an hr before another  at another time WTF I'd just be swallowing the sack of them like I do--well I do keep three separate --Somehow I learned that.

OK I was going to tell u to close u'r eyes, but that doesn't work on here either does the smellathon. But today I smell like creamy bananas, thank God no one keeps monkeys around here--It's kind of a good fragramce but not the best I'v had, But it sure beats my FRAGRANCE before my shower. So I'm much better.

OMG…SAS…I can’t believe I’ve missed this in your posts, but TOO MANY doctors, that’s what I’ve been saying!!  I hate, hate, hate having to see so many doctors!  One for this, one for that..and if I’m not my care coordinator, then guess what, one thing can mess up the other!!  And I think those of us that have thyroid issues have some of the hardest times getting the proper care!!

I must have missed some article, but seems I should be glad.

Enerva, you are so talented!

Dutch, I love doing work like that although I’m not that good at it!  However, my DH is a carpenter and all of our projects at home we have done together!!  We actually built a cottage, started with 1 bed, 1 bath and kitchen/living area, we since have removed the orginal bath, and added on a large master bedroom and made a larger bath! 

Paw, I could never foster, I get attached so easy!!  Even with the dogs we board and train, if we have them a month or more, I don’t like to let them go home!  LOL

And yes, Cami and Chevy, you always bring a smile!!  THANKS!!!

Wow, Dutch, 4 hours between, no one told me that, I take all of mine together every morning!  I’ll have to look into this!!  I take actual Synthroid, 100mcg, along with Dexilant, Claritin, Vitamin b12, Vitamin d3, garlic and calcium!!  No one has ever said that I should separate any of them! 

Oh, and today I DO NOT HAVE A BACK ACHE!!!  Actually, at the moment, it’s kind of strange as nothing is hurting!  However, I haven’t been sleeping very well, seems I must be having some anxiety issues as I keep having trouble catching my breath!  I
know it’s all about the anxiety because when I’m busy, and can’t think about it, I have no trouble at all!  I’ll get a grip on it soon!!

And when I do use the smell good stuff in my bath, it’s always Vanilla, guess I’m just plain!

I know I’ve missed a lot, so good morning it everyone!!  Waving to you all!!

Yes, Nettie, for sure the Synthroid needs to be taken like Dutchy says. Does your bottle have any special directions? It should. I know it's 1 hour before eating; increases the absorption. And I would take it by itself. Would consult with your pharmacist about the Dexilant and how close together you can take it. I know antacids (which Dexilant technically is not) and calcium supplements can decrease absorption. I think a good pharmacy consult is in order. Do you buy locally or mail order? Even mail order has to have a pharmacist available to consult with.

About the Dexilant. My PCP practically ordered me off of Omeprazole - which is same class as Dexilant. I think Omeprazole affects calcium absorption more. He has me on Zantac generic 2x a day.

Sassy - all flood insurance is admin. by FEMA. My insurance agent couldn't even quote anything without going back thru FEMA. Would be curious to know if your quotes by diff. companies differ any. We have had State Farm ins. for years. DM had it too. Never had a problem with it. It covers what it says but then it doesn't cover what it says it doesn't. Have had car ins. with it forever. That's where we have had some claims the past 2 years. Knock on wood house OK. Waiting for our Texas 2" hailstorm one of these days. Can't remember how old the roof is - I think about 10 years. As with anything - and I mean anything - these days it keeps going up. DH is pretty good about deciphering insurance talk and I take care of the health side so team up pretty well. I like you really detest insurance in general but it is a necessary evil. I quivered when we went to talk to ins. agent mostly about changes to flood ins.

I think Chevy has posted this before, but I just love it!!

Just looking at pics from happy days!  These were at my daughters wedding, 3 years ago!  Big difference then to now!!  Maybe the pics will motivate me to exercise!

Nettie - I think it was RxList I was reading on. I think it's the dailymed Sassy uses. But I cannot find in my bookmarks the one where you can put in 2 drugs and crosscheck interaction.

Sassy what it that other site you offer to check meds on? I thought I had it.

Nettie - I would have a talk with my pharmacist. They of all people are trained to check for interactions. Now with over the counter meds they have no idea you're taking calcium so would not figure in any warnings until you tell them. To be truthful I had to look Dexilant up, I'd never heard of it. Prob. new improved version of Omeprazole. Curious why your doc chose that form. I just checked our ins. and it is a Tier3 meaning I would have to jump thru hoops to get it. No generic.

LMG, I take Dexilant and have for years....nothing else worked for me, went through the whole list!! 

And Pharmacist does know ALL the things I take including OTC vitamins!

Did you gals see this?  My DD sent it to me...

It is a dog helping "his" cat give birth to kittens....

Thinking good thoughts for you sister, Enerva.

Sass,  I heard you.  I also did felt a bit of that when I read it. 

I think I got mad  at robin Williams but not at him really I have been mad since I was 9 years old cuz my father one day upset about my oldest brother s decisions in life decided to stop taking his heart medication and one day he gotta heart attack. Mom found after thatched had stop taking his medication on purpose so, my mom had to race all of us alone. She never remarry, became a nurse and worked day and night shifts then my oldest sisters found jobs to help out. Mom was an angel, the kind of mom that never hits you or scream at you. I must say the years I got her here with me even though Alz was with us I was blessed to have her and I did my best to give back some of the care she provided me with when I was little. 

I have always been a funny one,  always making people happy but when I read that link it hit home for me too. 

Anyway yes my sister situation is getting in my nerves hoping for the best. 

Hope you all have a good night.  I am going to take a pill tonight cuz other wise I won't be able to sleep  

Sending you all hugs.
