I need to call MAMSI and see how much of the TENS unit they'll cover.
I need to call Northridge to find out if they can fit me in for a psych eval before my (next) Friday appt at the insomnia clinic. (HAH!) My doctor requested this, so I'll do it. After they're done laughing at me, I'll call behavior management and cancel. I need to call my doctor's office and request some referrals (pain clinic, possibly EMG).
I also need to print out the three letters I've written to those buttmonkeys in Washington Senator Allen, Senator Warner, and Representative Goode and mail them.
As for the Zanaflex, it's not often that I come across a med which makes me feel *substatially worse* the next day. Ah, well, at least the few dreams I have are weird. I think the first night was an aberration. It seemed to work well, but I hadn't had much sleep and I wore myself out going to the appt and then walking downtown and back later that day. Today, i get to take a dose sometime during the day, and one at night. It still makes me loopy, grumpy, and sleepy, but it doesn't make me *drowsy* enough to actually fall asleep. And last night, I had a lot of inflammatory type pain (rib, foot, hips, knees, back) preventing me from sleeping.
