| Took a trip to the doctor to get some advice on Paco. I decided to name my hernia. I'm better today than Thursday. But it still needs to be taken care of eventually. I'm supposed to stay off my feet this week and see how much more the swelling goes down and if the pain goes away. After that, no bending, lifting, reaching, or sex. Yep, no using the stomach muscles whatsoever. Paco is an umbilical hernia. I talked to HR at Hubby's work. He can add me to his insurance at the end of August and it will go into effect September. We don't have it now because the cost is pretty much equal to our car payment. Plus, the deductible is 5K. The plan is to cut our budget down as much as possible so that all of that won't hurt us so much when the time comes. But I realize that I need to take care of myself better. I'm not alone and it's okay to ask for help. I can't do it all, but that's okay too. |

but seems to be okay today. I worry about my poor circulation, scrub my toes with a soft bristle brush, watch discoloration come and go. I probably need new arteries or veins but hey... "Heathcare" USA (enough said?). I may be better off trying something here in Thailand. But still... wish I lived in a country that had adequate patient based healthcare. Thailand and Taiwan mostly do, but I can't access it. First world systems like Europe, Canada and Australia do, but again, I can't access it.
