Hi Everyone:
Tipper did not want to walk this morning which I already said worries me. She sat on my bed for about a half an hour after breakfast, and then finally decided to go. I think it is a combo of the heat/humidity and her luxating patella. She stayed in for the rest of the day yesterday, and was bored and naughty, but I will take bored and naughty any day. Valerie I have already had the Lithotripsy once before, in the water. I had a black and blue mark on my back the size of a hand . This stone is not big enough to do that with, so they would have to go in surgically and remove it. I am doing the meds first, so as soon as my drug company gets them to me I will start on them. I have a mail order pharmacy, which stinks in an emergency and you need it like now. If I go to a regular pharmacy they penalize me 60.00 per RX. That is outrageous and I will not pay it. If you try to pay cash for the RX they have your insurance in the computer and tell you by law they have to use your insurance. So instead of me paying say 5.00 cash for an RX, they want me to pay 60.00, and that is not happening. Tipper is on the floor beside me of course and I can hear her wheezing. I saw or heard somewhere about someone with throat problems- it was a person. They rubbed Eucalyptus on the outside of the throat and it helped. It has many healing properties. I have some, but I am scared to rub it on Tipper because of the smell, and her breathing problem. Also she is allergic to everything. I am curious and would like to try it though. This is a one walk day today, as it is already in the upper 70's this morning. Blessings
Patti
