whut (a blog)

 You can't pick your doctor willy nilly, if the one you have dies or moves away.
Everyone in my medical group (all the Primary-care-physicians / PCP's) moved off somewhere, and that's OK but it messed up the actual doctors I'm supposed to see.
The PCP is like the host of the game show, and the rest all perform for them.
I didn't know (I wrote this before) why changing the main doctor (the host) changes all the other doctors.
I've changed entire insurance companies easier.....

This matters, will I be travelling miles and miles to see anyone?
The concept of many doctors in one building was rejected apparently.

I'm sitting here playing the dusty oldie "Starfield" and wondering why artists prefer people with light-colored eyes.
I fall for anyone with very dark eyes, but they seem to think bright golden or green eyes are the best.

My club in starfield ("constellation") is strange. The actors with the biggie parts are the least attractive ones.
The interesting members almost never speak.

Specifically the russian woman and the black lady.

The guy with a pillow hat and the cowboy guy can't shut up.
The cowboy follows the player around and says stuff like "Can we talk?" when there's nothing to say.

If I make my black tea too strong (anything stronger than "weak")
My stomach gets mad and throws all the tenants out the back door.
So excuse me for daydreaming that acidic foods might, possibly, help a person lose weight.

No, say the experts at Google. It's more of a high-fiber thing.

I'll maybe misconstrue also that Gastritis can never ever (ever) be cured, or WTF are all those insurance doctors good for?
On the other hand, if I mention it, they pounce on ordering a colonoscopy, which finds nothing and is pointless because they didn't find anything profitable (cancer, tumors) so it is never spoken of again.
Yes, they can order pointless tests but the tests (by definition) are pointless: Ultrasound, the whole intestine-thing.
"It's inside my stomach," but that (endoscopy?) is never mentioned again. 
"Your stool is too fat!" they point fingers, and then it all is forgotten.

The magical treatment test for anything these days is a blood test, and the blood tests they order don't deviate from the norm by much, if at all.
End of diagnosis.

You're fucked. Get over it (and drink lotsa water)

I've got credit, sure, but you have to pay them back!

My rent vs Creon

The almighty three enzymes can be seen in teeny bits ("Lipase") in generic probiotics at CVS.
They are still high (~$30) but....
