Hi ladies,
Thanks for your responses. I don't have access to a computer over the weekend so I have to check posts when I get here to the Reich (work). I finally got my new insurance to pay the meds. They swore I still had coverage with Anthem which termed at the end of last year. Apparently human resources had not informed Anthem of this. I sent HR an URGENT e-mail letting them know they needed to call Anthem pronto! Within the hour, Anthem called telling me they had cancelled me. What a mess. I was so stressed over this. At least I finally got the message through. I was a bit ashamed (not to mention embarrassed) about going off in the store. I knew it wasn't their fault but I wasn't too rational at that moment.
I have something to say about memory! I had no idea memory problems were a part of BP. I was stunned when I read some of your posts about this. I always thought I just had a bad memory. For example here at work they made a lot of changes about entering stuff into the system. What was just a two step process they have made into a 10 step process. I can NOT get all these new steps to save my life! I even tried post it notes everywhere and forgot to read the darn notes! My quality which used to be really good is now lousy. Our annual reviews are coming up probably next week and I know they are going to give me bad marks in quality. I don't think that's fair since it's not ALL my fault. They are posting these changes in huge thick manuals and expecting us to read the manuals and apply the changes. Well great if you're not BP. I could NEVER do that. I don't comprehend what I read very well. Especially required reading. Their "I don't care" attitude is hurtful! I'll be glad when reviews are over. Funny, when I was manic, I was getting the best review and the largest raises in the company.
I think I'd rather be manic! lol
Thanks again for the support here on this board! :)

Hi Jodie,
Got a kick out of the light bulb going on about bp and memory. Depression is a breeding ground for memory problems. Sorry to hear your still having trouble at the Reich. I'm hoping your review will be better than you think it will be.
I'm glad you got your insurance steightened out. I proud of you for making that call.
Don't worry about the pharmacy. I'm sure you said nothing they hadn't heard before. Just apoligize when you go in. I bet they say they don't remember the problem. I'm looking forward to hearing how you do on these meds. Take care.
Love,
Jamie
Love,
Jodie,
Is your office aware of the BP?
Hey Jodie!
On good news, I am excited about seeing the reproductive endocrinologist (RE) next week. Hopefully will be able to start IVF sometime this year. Ohhhh, I could just see me with triplets or quads! ACK! lol
