More ramblings.
The Colesterpol came last week. I was worried to death Mom would get sick from the medication and complain about it upsetting her stomach. Ends up she couldn't swallow the pill. It was too big. I called the doctor and he ordered a powdered form of the drug. It was picked up Friday. On Saturday she took her half a package dose with water. She only took half of THAT. It tasted funny. My aunt told me later Mom complained about it bothering her throat. Apparently the mixture didn't completely dissolve in the water. They should have tried again today with apple sauce.
Thank God, as of this writing I am only allergic to legumes and a host of pet dander and airborne stuff. I am not allergic to any medications so far. I AM skeptical though about taking medications. They all have side effects, some horrific sounding. I personally think that in some cases I am better off dealing with the illness rather than the side effects of medications taken to stop the illness. I think I will probably die of some disease because I won't want to deal with the side effects of the potential cure.
