OMG! Good news!!

So I went to the doctor today. I don't have insurance. He gives a discount if you pay at the visit. Of course I take that! Anyways, he asks how I am and I rattle off the list of ailments that I am there for. After an exam, he says I have a bit of pleurisy. That is a swelling of the bi-layer sack that surrounds the lungs. The swelling causes the two layers, which usually have a fluid lubricant between them, to rub and causes pain while breathing. It is caused by the lupus attacking the lungs. SO... I got a cortisone shot. And we'll see.

THEN...

I GET MY INSURANCE BACK!!!

For some reason, a girl crying on the phone that she will die if she doesn't get her medicine and has no way to pay for it doesn't cause anyone to do anything. BUT a big pharmacy can call the same people and get it reinstated. huh?!? But it worked.
