Pulmonologists, Allergists and Expensive Prescriptions
Ok so well, Gabe hasn't been doing so well allergy wise, and I took him to a Pulmonologist today and got some...meh not so good news. Gabe has asthma, that I already knew. He also has trachea malecia which most children grow out of, his has turned into sleep apnea. Theyr'e just not sure what kind of sleep apnea it is. So now we get to spend the night in Rainbow Hospital for a sleep study here in the next month, and if it's obstructive sleep apnea, he has to have surgery to have his tonsils and adnoids removed. In the mean time he now has to take Nasalnex or however you spell it, which is a nasal spray, Flovent which is a 2x a day inhaler, Albuterol if he is wheezing between the Flovent doses and the Epi-pen if he goes into shock and stops breathing =| So I took my happy ass to Walgreens, dropped off his prescription and went back an hour later. An hour later......our wallets were crying =( $311 worth of prescriptions.....I also called the child support enforcement shortly thereafter and asked for a modification of my case against Gabe's dad so maybe I'll start getting more money from him then I am currently getting.
Oh and as for an update for Lynette, I never got to talk to my dad b/c he didn't stay long enough when I didnt' have customers for me to talk to him. Maybe next Wednesday or Thursday. We shall see!
