Thursday Thoughts = Quick Update

Since my post on Sunday I have done nothing much but sleep. Today is the first day I woke up feeling somewhat human. I have a doctors appointment this afternoon. I spent over an hour on the phone with Humana (our current insurance ~ not sure if we will keep them for next year ~ that’s to be determined). I needed to find out what kind of Continuous Blood Glucose Monitor my insurance would cover and what insulin they covered since I found out they don’t cover humulog. (Fast acting insulin)

After one phone call, being transferred 4x taking up an hour of my time and being told I needed to check with Humana ~ who I called first…I hung up and called Humana back again. After getting through all the robo questions finally was connected with Brenda…I told her what I needed, and being transferred 4x to no avail. All I needed to know was what brand of CBG do they cover, what is the name of the fast acting insulin they cover and within 30 seconds she had the answers. I thanked her profusely, she apologized numerous times for the hassles I had and we wished each other a blessed day.

Now to go to the doctors…I go today, Ron has to test negative to Covid before he can go so his appointment was changed to next Monday…I continue to show negative to Covid – I am thinking it is just a bad case of bronchitis, which I have had many times in years past but not for a long time…at least today I feel like a human being. And can sit up for more than 5 minutes wishing I could just go back to sleep…all that is a good sign.

I told Ron yesterday, I know I’m really sick when I can’t or don’t

• want to crochet
• watch any of my crime shows
• wanting to eat but no energy to cook so its Ritz crackers for the win!
• and I don’t complain about drinking plain water.

Today as I look around the trailer, there is lots that need my attention but knowing how I’m feeling it’s not going to happen unless a fairy comes in and cleans the kitchen, straightens up the bed and cooks a delicious meal. I have all the stuff for a good pot of chicken noodle soup but don’t have the energy to get it all in the crock pot…maybe that will happen tomorrow.

For now, I will get ready to head to the doctors.

Hope each and everyone of you that reads my blog has a truly blessed day!!!
