The doctor not only gave me a 6 month prescription for thyroid medicine, but quizzed me on my hearing problem and the problems I'm having with my bones, and gave me a prescription for an antibiotic and a Medrol dosepack to clear up my ear.
I could weep from happiness!
Then, I went over to CVS to get my prescriptions filled, and they told me that all of it was going to cost nothing!
I came home about an hour ago, and have loaded up on all the prescriptions, and plan to feel very well real soon now.
For those of you who have never had steroids (which is what the dosepack is), it's not really good for you, but it will make you feel soooo good, soooo fast you wouldn't believe it. At least if it's something that you really need to take.
The good thing about the dosepack is that they give you a heavy dose the first day, and a bit less each succeeding day for a week. Because it's done that way, you get the same benefit you would if you took a decent dose every day for a month, but you take a lot less actual medicine.
The goal is to clear out all the inflammation and blockage in my ear, hopefully permanently. If it does that, I will be so happy about it!
I expect to feel very well tomorrow.

I am so glad you have found a doctor you really feel confident with!
