Dreaded OB GYN

I have a dreaded appointment today. Just for a few simple facts, that insurnce only covers a pap yearly but not everything else, I will ask him to only do a pap b/c the medical bills (before deductible) is piling up. They get paid when they get paid but still i hate looking at them.

Second is depsite this HORRIBLE bp med i am on i know the blood pressure will be up. I get to go to the LOVELY cardiologist see a few posts back and tell her take me OFF This stuff NOW. And i am telling her look this is the 2nd one you have ONE more chance or i am done.

My primary care doesnt think i need to be on it and well this cardio's credibilty is SHOT since she couldnt figure out the blood pressure cuff.

First i was on a generic of Norvasc 5mg, which the ONLY side effect was i couldnt sleep. Melatonin, benadryl DID NOT HELP. So i suggested putting me on the actual Norvasc, she declined. THe actual Norvasc makes you sleepy not the opposite.

SO........she put me on the huge Verapimil pill at 240 mg.I called the pharamacist and was like WHY IS THIS ALMOST a bazillion the dosage? He said the mg is just the weight of the pill not strength.

With the Verapil, i am angry, anxious, agitated, shaky and blurred vision. IT's like i have to almost shake my head to have it come back to focus occassionaly. I cannot take zantac and motrin my two candies for heartburn and headache/cramps. Tylenol does squat for me.

When i was put on this a few weeks ago the nurse said oh the doc wants to see you in a week. I said Nah, she can wait till the 30th b/c i am NOT coming up twice. Plus i wanted to give this new med a few weeks to work.

I was thinking of calling her today to tell her i am done on it, but i am going wed but why wait till then.

So i think i'll call today and talk to the very nice nurse and tell her i am done. Let the doctor fret over it i am not.

*****************UPDATE*******************
i called they have to pull chart and call back. Hopefully they dont call when i am at docs.

I took it 1 1/2 hours ago i am aggitated, shaky and feel like i did when i was on wellbutrin

Let Me Tell You HOW DISTUSTED I Am Right Now......

ok so i was out getting my daily salad at Shaw's Plymouth (b/c Carver doesnt hae the little sesame crunchy things i like).........

I am driving on 44 home when a White Ford F150 is driving the most erratic i have EVER seen. Crossing double line driving in oncoming traffic with cars and 18 wheelers coming, then on to the shoulder of the road, speeding up almost hitting me then almost stopping dead on the street.

(WAIT DIDNT I JUST SEE THIS TYPE OF THING A FEW WEEKS AGO ON CNN)

So i called 911, they put me through to state police, i told them what was going on. (dispatcher for 911 seemed concerned)I was in front of this person blah blah Told them i was in Carver, blah blah.

You know what that asshole says to me..............stay away from them. No dispatch to Carver Police, no asking what street i am passing? Only asked 44 towards Middleboro or towards the ocean. MIND YOU 44 runs around a pond before hooking up with 58 at 44 again. So he's thinking i am on the new 44 stretch, but woulnt let me say exactly where i was. Just stay away from them.

You have got to be F'ing kidding me!!!!!!!

Not to mention i drove OUT OF MY WAY to make sure this was reported, and closer to home i see my drunk neighbor flying down plymouth street. It's a 20 mph street granted nobody does but she was MOTORING.
