Doctor's Visit

We met with Dr. Lucas' Nurse Practitioner who can prescribe drugs and she looks exactly like Patrick's ex!!!  I have never in my life met two people who look so similar . . . it was a little weird having her touch me and get personal.

Anyway, some drugs have been decreased, some gone, new ones added, etc.  New regime starts tomorrow.  My neuropathy has been bad -- hard to type but I am on Lyrica (a diabetes drug) which helps nerve pain, so maybe that will help.  I cannot live without typing.

Good interviews this week for the special events planner which may morph into other exciting directions.  More about that later.  It is good to be back to ChainFree and Asheville -- I had some hesitations about coming back since we love Florida so much, but this life is good in other ways. . and I so enjoyed seeing my old gang.  Saw Miss Jane (of the famous miss Jane's pet walker fame) today at Mountain Java and have seen many others.  Good feelings  .

This computer is not allowing me to upload photos so it may have to go tot he shop. . and my class in photography was cancelled at UNCA (boo!).

Overall, a very good week. . .

Thanks for listening.  Please tell me about your life.

Love,

Peggy

  1. Hi Peggy,

    I think Lyrica is also used for fybromyalgia. Anyway, I hope you get some relief. I can't imagine you not being able to type.

  2. Hi-Thanks for the update . . . I read this earlier but forgot to reply. I'm just glad that your appt went well. And hopefully the new meds will help, too. (Interesting that the nurse practitioner looked like someone else--weird!). The neuropathy sounds very difficult to cope with so I hope you will see some improvement. And hope your computer is cooperating now! That's fun that you saw Miss Jane (she's wonderful!). Natalie is studying to take her pharmacy board exams and I'm still trying to unpack. My mom is coming this weekend and my aunt and cousin are coming next week . . . busy! Hope you and Patrick have gotten all settled in and that everything is going well! :) Michelle
