Stress...my near and not-so-dear friend. (AM referring to stress...it's always near me and it is not my friend...NOT referring to anyone here) I had your day today. Since I'm a veteran and not working, I use the VA hospital in Tampa. It's a pretty good place yet it can be so frustrating.

I arrived at 7:40, waited an absurd amount of time to have blood drawn, had 2 doctor appts with one doctor running 20 minutes late, had 1 x-ray, sat another absurd amount to get today's records released (for me to take to my disability attorney since my hearing is coming up next month), and FINALLY getting mad at the pharmacy and leaving without the prescription at 2:45!!!

I'm beat.

I just go back to bed and say..it's not worth the hassle! Then try to summon up a nice dream where there is some cute 60's icon to take me dancing!:)
Because if I get up, then I have to eat..eating leads to guilt and guilt leads to walking and then I am tired and take a nap. So why not just stay in bed and cut out the middleman?

I hope your stress lessens and you feel better Cranky Fuzz and you too Sudoku and Ariel!

Ever have one of those days where it seems like no matter what you do it was bound to be a bad day you getting out of bed just set the roller coaster from hell into motion.
I can relate. Was a bit of a wreck when the atomizer quit working a few hours ago. Decided all the t/s was not working and I do not need to flip out over it. Just got up - made a pot of coffee - screwed the thing together - not happening. Same routine from earlier - tried other battery - nothing. Then get into reading posts - put back the first battery that the atomizer quit on - and puffs of smoke. Did all the cleaning last night - no clue why it is working now, but the coffee in my cup is hot and tasty and am vaping again.

Maybe it will be a good day after all! Naw - not going to happen. Have to write a paper for a class in global strategic management with a professor that thinks this should be a master course class and not in the bachelors degree program. Spinnng wheels to only make an average grade has me apathetic.

But - the positive note - great Thai coffee and the 910 is vaping again - Oh Yeah!

Unless it's urgent that you make the choices, don't let your doctor force you into making them. If it's urgent, maybe a second medical opinion?? Best wishes!


I am not going to let them push me around but I do need my medications changed they wanted to see me ASAP but cant get me in until the second week of next month does not make sense to me.

Well they did take me in now but I only got to see the physicians assistant not the doctor the doctor is booked solid until November but they squeezed me in during one of her lunch hours. I will need to get blood work so I will have a baseline comparison to see how my levels have changed since I started vaping I will be posting any drastic changes for everyone on forum.

I guess I am just stressed because hubby thinks my pills should be magical and everything should be all better with some new pill and it just doesn't work that way.
