2nd Day with Shots

Boy is this stuff expensive. It started out at over $800 per week, but now it has been worked out to just over $1700 per month for 12 shots. That is a $134 per shot cost. One cannot stay sick for long at those prices. If we went to the hospital and got them the cost was $78,000+ for our portion of the shots plus the doctor, hospital and technician charges.

Yesterday was a rough day as I spent it very close to the bathroom all day. Patti and I cut back on the medicines too fast for the side effects and we paid the price for it. Today was much better. Late this afternoon I went to the dermatologist and he took another biopsy on my back. We will wait and see what this one says. It is right at my beltline on my back.

Got out to church tonights with the boys. It was good talking to everyone. I feel much better about the shots. The first one had no pain at all. Let.s hope that they all are that way. Well, got to go.
