Look Out

Life here in the mountains has turned to monsoon season. Every afternoon for the last few days, it clouds up and starts to blow a bit, and then we get some rain. Sometimes it lasts for an hour, other times, like today, it rains a few minutes, stops, then starts again and goes on for a couple of hours.

Makes planning things a bit difficult , but the last few days, it hasn’t mattered because all the health stuff I’m dealing with has me not feeling so good, then feeling great, then back to yuck. I’ll be glad when whatever is going on rears its ugly head, but I try to carry on with the walks and the exercises so I don’t stiffen up and begin to hurt again.

On top of all that, I’m out of my hormones, and the VA has hit a snafu and they still haven’t been ordered yet!! I had a hot flash today and wondered wth? Then realized I’ve been out for a week. I just thought the prescription was routing through the mail, but no. I placed a third call to them after they botched a video appt. yesterday, and she confirmed that it has not been ordered. Since the order originated from my civilian kidney doc, she suggested I call and ask him to refill it while they try to get their respective ducks in a row at my PC’s office.

So I tried, and his office was already closed? It was 4:30 here, so it should have been 3:30 there. Oh well, I’ll try again tomorrow because you know what happens when women are off their estrogen for too long! Look out!!

    1. I got lucky, Anne! My civilian kidney doc was kind enough to fill my prescription, so I’ll be back to my (somewhat) normal self soon!!

    1. Oh trust me, I tried to go natural but it doesn’t work for me. I am on the lowest dose of estradiol there is, so that’s what stops the hot flashes for me. ☺️
