Well, I have FINALLY been approved for permanent residency in Czech Republic. Yay!!!!!!! This means that we can now start working on getting public health insurance. I will need to go to the city municipal office next Monday to actually get the permanent residency card made. We have an appointment set.

I saw my Czech psychiatrist earlier today. It was a good visit. The only thing is that after describing my recent dysthymic state (and stressors) he said I should continue the morning 50 mg of Seroquel XR along with all of my other meds (incl. 600 mg evening Seroquel XR). The thing is that I stopped the 50 mg over a week ago. I suppose I should have told him that, but I confess I was a bit leery to do so. I will add it back just to become honest again, but if it's too much, I'll text him. He was kind giving me free samples of generic 50 mg Seroquel XR. I needed him to prescribe additional supplies to get my 600 mg nightly. He was also kind to prescribe generic Wellbutrin XR for my husband, but only did so as a one-time thing. He said that Hubby will need to get his own psychiatrist, for understandable reasons. He had to prescribe it under my name, even though I don't take Wellbutrin. He said that he would likely never be prescribing such a medication for me, because of my bipolar disorder. I said he was right that it would a disaster. I know that from lots of experience.

After my psychiatrist appointment we went to a lovely park that was walking-distance away. There are photos and descriptions of the park at Lužanky Park | Go To Brno. How lovely that I can go there after my appointments! Really, the whole area near this psychiatrist's office is beautiful and peaceful. Now I need to "check in" with my American psychiatrist. The latter won't be changing any my meds. He just told me I should check-in, even though I am not "seeing him" anymore.
