wellness update

*gasp* i am so deprived of human contact... give me some luvs, peeps!

anyways, i phoned the doc office today to see what i should do next, seein' as how the trots have me running faster than ever.... they said, can you come in now? ok, i had a ride, so i did.

"hi, i'm here, but first where's the bathroom?"

finally settled in in the winnie-the-pooh-room (love that irony!), my doc said there was no specific diagnosis of parasites from the test results, but that *crystals* were seen that indicate the presence of something.... gee, crystals? pretty sparklies in my pooh? wish i'd seen that. i've seen nothing pretty or sparkly in it, at all! lol.

anyways, now i'm on an antibiotic that kills both *ahem* anaerobic bacteria and protozoa *cough, um, er, what did i just say?*.... 10 days to kill off the little suckers, whatever they are.... i hope.

so.
antibiotics, check.
buscopan for the constant cramping, check.
immodium, to immobilize things a bit, slow things down? um.... no check.

unfortunately that basic drug, even though i have a prescription for it, is *not* covered by pharmacare. and i'm a wee bit short on cash.

hey, that gives me an idea...

*pretty sparklies for sale! pretty sparklies! ...anyone?*
