DanielleF's Journal

 I took the kids shopping today for clothes. Both of my boys needed  jeans and shorts for the summer. My oldest son likes to skateboard, so he wears jeans everyday.  I don't know how he does it. It is so hot outside. Last week my husband finished closing in our garage, he made a game room out of it. We ordered a pool table and an air hockey table for the kids. The neighbors are thrilled. A group of friends came over the last two weekends to hang out. I really like it when everyone is here. I am still afraid to drink alachol. Last time I drank, I had a bad flare for 2 weeks. The buzz I got from my drinks was not worth that price!LOL. We still had fun eating and talking.

I wanted to let everyone know I am still doing good. I go to the doctor on Wednesday for another Elmiron instill. I do believe they are helping me. I tried not to take it for two days, and the pain came back. I am one of the few  people on this site who has seen results from Elmiron, but I really think it is helping. I do think the cost of it sucks! If it were more affordable, I would take it 3x a day. I only take it once along with other supplements because it cost too much.  It is only a matter of time until I go back to work for health insurance. Right now we spend over $750 a month on medicine. This does not include the Elmiron. I am thinking about trying to buy it from a Canadian pharmacy.

I hope everyone has a good weekend!
