I haven't been on long today as I had a doctor's appointment this morning at 10 am.
By the time the doctor did all the test and examines and I picked up some pain pills it was noon.
Came home and fixed something to eat and then came on the computer to finish up the notifications and to see what had been posted.
My blood pressure is a little low so I am to take a pill for that, the pain on my right side I decided no Xray as why does it matter what is causing it.
I also had that second pneumonia shot and I took a prescription in for the Shingles shot which I can pick up in about 5 weeks.

Many times I am my own doctor. If I wasn´t, I´d have to be at the hospital all year. And at my expense.

I have heard it costs $125 even if you have Medicare.

I would pay that just to not get the shingles and I know my mother had the shingles and was in a great deal of pain.

@Marcyaz It would probably be worth it. I had one friend that contracted it and the pain was unbearable.

@Marcyaz Only because I don't understand much about it but do you mean a Shingles shot to prevent yourself from getting it or is it because you already have it? I actually still don't really know what Shingles is actually.
I really hope that pain has gone!

Everyone, but particularly people over 60, should get that shingles shot--it is horrendous to get!!!

I've never opted to take the shingles shot even though it's been suggested by my doctor.
