I realize, we're really lucky to have any coverage regarding fertility issues from our insurance company. And I'm grateful for whatever we have. That doesn't make it less frustrating to deal with. No one seems to know whether or not Clomid is covered by the fertility drug benefit, or the regular pharmacy benefit. And then, on top of that, the insurance apparently won't cover any monitoring unless the drug is prescribed by a reproductive endocrinologist. But not any RE on the plan, no...of course not. Only an RE from the one very specific practice affiliated with the separate fertility benefit. Which, of course, happens not to be the doctor that Dr. P refers people to, and who no one seems to know from Adam. So, do I let Dr P prescribe it, not do the ultrasounds and hope it works, do I see if he knows any of the doctors at the particular practice I have to go to, do I do something else that I won't write about that involves letting Dr P prescribe the clomid, and so on and so on? Decisions, decisions. I don't have to make any for another few weeks, but we'll see.
The cat knocked over the lamp last night. I don't know how he did it, and nothing broke, though somehow the shade came off. (I don't know where the finnial is.) What's even more baffling, is that Cayne slept through it. The lamp was on his side of the bed. I woke up when I heard the crash though.
Can't kick this headache. Yesterday it felt like a sinus headache, today it feels more like a migraine, but without some of the other migraine stuff (light sensitivity, for example.) A bit bummed cause a friend had to cancel his work-trip to Orlando, so I won't get to see him for dinner this week.
Cayne is (and by extention, so am I) stressing a bit over the timeline of immigration stuff. We know we can claim back time that was spent in Canada-I have reciepts from the last two trips we took, which gives us about four weeks of time, but it's much harder, I suppose, to document the time that we spent when we drove up there. Though since we tend to use credit cards when we're there, rather than cash, perhaps that's sufficient documentation. We spent about ten days at the end of 2004, and about a week in August 2004. I'm sure there was other time that Cayne was there that he could claim back.
Must go find copies of labwork before endocrinologist appointment on Wednesday. Please hope she looks at my symptoms and numbers and says "let's try something" and not "sorry we can't help you." I would really like to try and treat the seemingly-sluggish thyroid, finally. I've only been asking for years.
