connected in the hallway with someone who also recently had shingles. she told me of these horrible ongoing things that can happen to people who've had shingles. she found out all this information on the internet. i was intrigued because i certainly hadn't heard about those thing.
so i...
connected on the internet and read site after site after site, looking for all those horrible ongoing things mentioned by my first connection. didn't find any. however, i found a brief mention concerning the dosage of the strong antiviral drug that i have been taking: "...3 times a day for 7 days..." 7 days?!?!?! wait a minute, mine is for 21 days!!!! now, i'm onto very specific website searches. yup, they all say 7 days.
so i...
connected by phone with a favourite relative of mine who just happens to be a pharmacist. she connected with her fellow pharmacist who just happens to be an expert on shingles. yup 7 days...
so now i...
- hope i have good connections with the insurance company to get my the money back.
- am glad for that very first connection, despite her talk of horrible ongoing things that don't seem to be very true
- no longer take those drugs
- am considering connecting with another family doctor
