Your manga drawing is great @Blue_Bird! Careful about cutting meds as you seem pretty stable at the moment. If it doesn't need to be fixed, don't break it.

@Lady Shadow - I hope today is much better than yesterday. If you care to tell, what went wrong? Only up to you to tell us if you want to. We are all allowed are privacy.

@June08 I hope moving into your new apartment goes well. I have an old back/pelvis injury in my right SI joint (that one started in pregnancy) and a pelvic injury that came from a fall. It acts up from time to time and it is H*LL. You are such an inspiration working, handling POTS & bipolar, getting IVs all the time, that would drive me crazy. I twice needed IVs for low iron/anemia and I hated that. One time it took all day several days because that was all the stupid insurance would pay for. Kind of depressing b/c I was put in with cancer patients too though they for the most part had good attitudes about receiving iron and/or chemo.

@Moose72 How wonderful of your mom! I would cry too in your shoes. My mom is sometimes passive aggressive and sometimes great as she did pay parts of my $7000 hospitalization bill (yes, with insurance) when I had that ulcer surgery. Once I got that bill to around $4000 (paying $100/month) the hospital forgave the rest of the debt, thank God. At the time H was working as a high school teacher and he hardly made anything.

@Nammu Enjoy your day with your granddaughter. How old is she?

As for me, I'm taking my daughter to a computer science AP test. I hope she passes as she will then get college credit for the course. These AP tests are $100 a pop, but much cheaper than taking the course in college. She already has some credit from previous courses she took last year, I forget which ones, maybe psychology and anthrology. I just worry about getting there on time. I always worry about being late to appts./arrival times.
