Hello, I am happy that my mammogram came back fine thank goodness. My Granddaughter numbers are up for now and Im so happy because that is just awful to see her go through. The fungus meds weren't an issue with the insurance company, it was the Infectious Disease Dr. that didn't have any refills on it and she is now in India for 3 or 4 months? I have to be monitored with blood work which she has only done 1 time and I am so mad at her about this because I have to make sure it doesn't affect my liver and kidneys.I finally got a return call from her office person and she said she can have the meds refilled and after I told her I need to have blood work on a regular basis to monitor she said I can have an appt in Feb! Then later she said that a Dr is seeing her patients if I want to see him.Well I think I need a Dr that is better with her patients? So this time I will look outside this Franciscan network! As far as my vocal cord injections, I dont know what to do bc I had my first one on Oct 4th and its worn off already.Insurance will pay for the implant ,its me who doesn't want it bc I still hope my voice will come back on its own but I am concerned. Anyway thanks for always responding.Merry Christmas

@pattymac, I saw my friend who had histoplasmosis several years ago. We did not talk about it, but he is doing great, and as active as ever. I hope that you get the medicine and the labs that you need, soon.
I want to share one idea that worked for me with special medications. I used to let my pharmacist, or doctor, know in advance that I was running low, That way they were sure to have it available for me without any delay.
Merry Christmas,
Rosemary

I'm so happy for you that your mammogram results came back good - that is a relief. Also, I'm glad to hear that your granddaughter is doing better - it is so hard when children are ill.
It is frustrating when doctors get so busy, isn't it? Have you checked with your primary care doc to see if he/she can help with some of the blood work that you need? That might be an option.
I can understand your wanting to wait on your voice to come back before considering the implant. How long ago did you lose your voice? Do doctors say it is possible that your voice may return? What is the diagnosis that they gave to the vocal cord impairment?
All of these questions will help to determine the possibility of your voice returning to normal in the future.
I hope you have a lovely Christmas and a happy 2018!
