Listen To Me!!!

Jesus Christ.  Every now and then I want to smack Nathan.  He just came into the living room asking if he should throw out his old prescriptions.  I was like, "I already got rid of that stuff you're allergic to."  Then he says, "no, this is the stuff from the hospital."  FOOL!  They gave him Prednisone, Allegra, and Pepcid.  I don't care if he stops Allegra and Pepcid, but TWO DIFFERENT DOCTORS/NURSES said TAKE THE FULL COURSE OF THE STEROID.  First he was arguing with me about what it was for.  I said something like, "make sure you take the prednisone since it will help your swelling."  He tried to argue with me that it's for rashes and itching.  NO IT'S NOT.  I've taken it before goddamnit.  They give it to me for my back sometimes for inflammation.  I told him that's what the Allegra was for.  So did he take the full course?  No.  I'm sure it's fine, but he doesn't take it seriously.  Like, this one time he decided he should just stop taking his sleep medicine.  IT'S A FUCKING BLOOD PRESSURE MEDICINE, and he's been on it for YEARS.  Like, since his age was in the single digits!  They use it for sleep and menopause.  I've actually asked my doctor about switching to it.
Of course I told him not to do that, but he did it anyway, and then he got really sick with a headache and stomach shit.  DUMBASS!  You're dating a fucking medicine cabinet.  Listen to me when I tell you something is a bad idea!  Jesus fucking Christ.  It's really goddamn irritating so now I'm mad at him and he's mad at me.  Too bad for him, because I'm right.

In other news, I only have one more fat class to go.  I got a call from the bariatric center wanting to know if I was going to have the same insurance for the new year and how far I'd gotten in the class.  I tried to call them today, but the lady I need to talk to won't be in until tomorrow.  It got me a little excited.  I'm thinking about only carrying a part time load this coming semester for DMACC since this surgery WILL happen soon.  If it doesn't, I'll kill someone.
Oh, and I guess there are more classes I have to take, but I don't have to take them until my surgery is scheduled?  I'm not sure.  COULD THIS FUCKING PROCESS BE ANY SLOWER!  CUT OUT MY GUT SO I CAN HAVE MY LIFE BACK ALREADY!

  1. jesus, has he never googled this stuff? or called that nurse hotline if he doesn't believe you?? THERE'S A REASON THEY TELL YOU TO TAKE THE FULL COURSE OF THE MED BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T, YOU WON'T BE COMPLETELY HEALED AND JUST GET SICK ALL OVER AGAIN. Do I need to come over the and slap him around? I'm practically a doctor too! AAAHGHGH!!
