I've been plotting and planning lately for if/when I lose my health insurance if my husband doesn't get a job with health insurance. I've come up with some med substitutions I can make and I'm stocking up on saphris and only taking the 5 mgs every other night or 2 to stretch it out. My pdoc writes for 60 10 mg ones and 30 5 mg ones. I've got about 4 months stocked up of so far. I'm getting both prescriptions of it filled this month and next month so I'll have about 8 months stocked up in total. I pray that my husband gets a job with health insurance before then. haha.

I'm also getting the nexplanon birth control implant on monday, so I'll be good for 3 out of 4 years of this cluster**** that's about to happen. I just hope it doesn't give me the sads like the implanon implant though. I asked my pdoc about it and he scanned me some pages out of a book. It basically said that people in their early 20s and younger have a higher chance of mood being affected by BC and that's when i tried all sorts of BC including implanon and depo. I'm on depo now and don't have the sads, so I'm hopeful.

Anyways I signed up for our insurance for next year, so hopefully I'll have it for a while at least. Just getting ready now, just in case something happens.
