So, went to the doctor's today, mostly to talk psych meds which, surprise surprise, she told me she didn't know what to do about and to just stay on the normal routine etc. etc. The same crap she's been telling me for, like, the past seven years. I mean, there's got to be something out there that'd actually work, right? There so many meds on the market now! But, eh, I got her to give me sleeping pills, which will help, and they weighed me and, to my delight, I could see for myself that I'm down to 130 lbs. on the nose (the last time I went, I was 193 lbs.!)
I guess the big news is that my doctor walked into the room, looked at my admittedly pathetic legs and just said, 'Wow, that's the worst case of ringworm I've ever seen!' Wow, yeah, that would have been a great diagnose, like, thirteen years ago when I first started seeing her for my skin condition and before it completely took my body over! (Which, incidentally, she blames me for for not seeing her for so long but she'd gotten just as frustrated trying to treat that as she had doing my psych meds!)
So, now I'm on Lamisil and hoping to God that'll work because, really, it started to become unbearable just in the past year and people have started to (rudely) comment on it. The idea of having clear skin is like a dream to me and she was telling me that the best they could do is get it down to, like, 50% of what it is now, which sounds flippin' awesome to me right now because I feel like a leper!
So, kinda blechy day, but in the long run could pay off!
Peace, Ghani
