Yesterday was an incredibly busy and productive day! I had about a dozen things on my to do list and accomplished all but two. Most involved getting lithium levels (and other labs) done for my PsychNP, setting up nearly a half dozen medical appointments with various specialists in the next two months and dealing with some medical grade BS.

Of note:
The dental clinic who looked at my broken tooth last week still doesn't have an extractor coming in for at least a month. The antibiotics they gave me cleared up the infection at least, but I don't like having 1/3 to 1/2 of a tooth sitting in my mouth unaddressed. What's worse, the clinic who's number they gave me to call runs off of a lottery system essentially. I'm supposed to call them in an hour (with presumably loads of other people doing the same thing) and hope to be given one of ten slots for the day. It's worse on the weekends. There, I have to physically show up at the clinic at 7am and hope to be given one of fifteen slots. Ah, America!

The other bit of fun revolves around my Colestipol being out at the factory for the second time this year and leaving me scrambling for any pharmacy that could dispense it. Of course, my Colestipol (taken to deal with the GI symptoms of bile dumping after me gallbladder was removed) is the med that keeps me most functional in my day to day. I did a lot of leg work and managed to secure a week of meds from my current pharmacy and a pharmacy the next town over that had a proper month of stock. I just have to pick it up.

Today consists of some big early morning stuff! I've got the "dental lottery" phone call coming soon. Here's hoping I get a spot! I've also got a consult regarding the synovial cyst in my neck in around three hours, and I've got to pick up my Colestipol before the end of the day. Finally, I'm going to look in a new internet provider that might save me $30+ a month!

Last but not least, I found my Sophie-cat had set up some... unusual sleeping arrangements last night. It was too sweet not to share!
