[Guest guest]

I do have a nebulizer now but that was only after going to the ER and

they asked me if my doc gave me one that was the first i had heard of

having my own. So i went to my doctor and asked for one she did give

me a script. and i got one 100% free. But it seemes that every time i

go to this doc i just leave with more scripts, she is script happy. I

went to this doc a while ago for a note for work i was actualy fine

but i plaid hooky and needed a note. I left that day with 4

perscriptions. As for the last post i am only 22 and on all of that

medicaation. Which reminds me i am also suppost to be on singulair,

and Adderal as needed. sorry for being so long i just dont feel that

i have anyone else to talk to about this stuff as my mom just thinks

it is crazy that i have all of these health problems and that i am

turning into a pill poper, my purse is so big because i have to carry

all of my meds and inhaler and i always keep sanitizer and tissue on

me. so i am turning into a walking pharmacy. Thanks for all of the

help and support.
