I seem to have forgotten where I planted my money tree. Medical bills piling up. Every time I go to the doctor, I have $400 in blood tests ordered. Who is gonna pay for that?

Maybe the patient assistance acceptance letter will come tomorrow.

Went to Planned Parenthood today to see if I could get my last 3 packs of pills. They wouldn't give them to me last time because my blood pressure was too high. Now that I am on BP meds, it was 120/80. Felt a little fun fibbing to the chickie.

Nurse: (smiling politely) "You haven't drank your normal 15 cups of coffee today have you?"

Me: Uh, don't drink coffee, but no.

Nurse: "Oh good then this bp rate should be ok. You've been without pills for a month because of this right?"

Me: (stifling a grin, thinking about the 3 pills a day I am currently taking, and hoping said pills are still hidden in my purse) Yeah...(trying to look sad)

At least I got my pills cheaper. $30 every 5-7 days is killing me. The pharmacist suggested two other medicines that would cost me $10 a MONTH instead of the $150 its costing me now and do the same thing. Going to talk to the doc about them when I go in...as well as a D&C. I can't keep taking the amount of Advil I am taking each day either. Heck, I might as well bury myself in the medical bills.
