I Choose the Sun
I am choosing the bright sun with lots of power rather than checking on how cold it is. I can’t do anything about either one of those, but the sun shinning makes me feel there is better days coming.
Dennis gave me a ride out to the clinic this morning for the lab work I was scheduled for. The lab work was for metabolic levels in my blood. I just checked the Mayo Portal to see my results. All levels were either at the mid-point or a tad bit on either side. The GFR level is always one that I for sure want to be mid-point. The filtration that the kidneys do can be impacted by various medications. The chloride was a bit to the right of the mid-point. I am a heavy coffee drinker and that can effect that level. That can be off-set by drinking as much water during the day as I do coffee. Always, there is room for improvement.
Dennis is on his way to Lewis Drug this afternoon. Last Thursday, I noticed two of Dennis’ scripts needed renewals. Lewis Drug is more than happy to fax the clinic with such a request. Here we were on a Tuesday forenoon and we stopped at Lewis Drug and still nothing. I called our clinic, just as I had called them yesterday to allow them to know I was concerned. I had gotten the lingo about some doctors being out . . . yada, yada, yada. Lewis Drug called us that at 11:45 they had the renewal from the medical clinic.
Our clinic is in serious trouble with a lack of sufficient doctors to cover the patient load.
Dennis was also going to stop and get Seafoam to put into the gas tank of the little red pickup.
Nothing serious or drastic going on, just hunkered down taking it one day at a time.
With that I will take my leave. ♥
