Cortexaphan

So I am about to learn how to shoot my self full of Copaxone.  It is a drug used to treat MS.  It is  supposed to keep the "attacks" from happening.  When Thor was telling me the name of the drug he wanted to start me on all I could think of was Cortexaphan from the TV show Fringe.  So now that is what I have decided to tell people (ok, not my doctors cuz they need to know what I am actually on) that is what I am taking.  It helps me to deal with the fact that I have to inject myself EVERY FREAKIN DAY!
He also told me the price of the drug.  $20,000 a year.  Um, I am a teacher.  Are you kidding?  So then he says that there are "programs" available to help pay for it.  So we qualified for the first program.  Now it is down to $1200 for a three month supply.  Ok, that is soooo much better.  But THEN we qualified for a SECOND program that pays for the co-pay so now they are TOTALLY paying for my drugs!!!  Get OUT of TOWN!  God is so good to me.  i was like, "Hey, God, um you gave me this disease so how am I supposed to take care of myself if the drugs are so expensive that I can't afford them?"  And He was like all "Hey, I got you, girl.  Just chill and follow me."
I am also suddenly taking a TON of supplements.  I am a person who really doesn't take much medication.  A vitamin and some Magnesium for headaches and that is about it.  Now I have added Flaxseed Oil, Red Yeast Rice, baby aspirin, and B Vitamin complex.  Thankfully most of it is just vitamin supplements so not a big issue.
I just went to my regular doctor and I have diabetes too.  Great.  I do not have to take anything for that but I do have to poke my finger every morning to test my blood sugar.  I need to lose weight.  Pthpt!  So She suggested that I learn to swim (Thor wants me to exercise but NOT raise my body temperature.  Really?  How do you do that?).  If I lose some weight then the diabetes thing will be eliminated.
Man!  Turning 40 sucks.
Anyhoo, taking the Cortexaphan will help me travel to the other side, or maybe at least just shoot fire out of my eyes.
