"No," she responded, "his nurse said that you need to make an appointment since it's been a year and a half since your last visit." I let out a huge sigh that contained more than a hint of annoyance. The woman on the other end of the phone was confidently silent. She knew I would bow to the pressure. I needed drugs and she controlled the gateway to my dealer.
I despise going to the doctor for two reasons:
- I am convinced that the medical industry is part of an elaborate conspiracy designed soley for the purpose of using my ignorance against me for profit.
- I hate getting on those damn scales!
"I'm going to give you three prescriptions," he said, "a decongestant, a nasal spray and an antihistamine." Three prescriptions! I only asked for one. See what I mean about the conspiracy?
When I went to the pharmacist, I had him only fill the prescription for the decongestant. Today, there will just have to be one less cog in the wheel of collusion.

get off the meds! they are using us, while they pollute us, there is no doubt about that.
have you tried any alternative medicines? accupuncture works incredibly well for a host of ailments, mental and physical. i go sometimes to a local accu college. you pay $25 per visit and the herbs are fairly inexpensive ( a fraction of Rx, even if you only co-pay).
sex clears your sinuses (honest), as do spicy foods.
some folks go on deep cleansing fasts and report subsequent recession of their histamine responses.
meditate.
be well!
Note to self: try sex as a remedy for clogged sinuses.
I can't remember if my sinuses are unclogged after sex or not. I can't remember my own name after sex, though, so never mind.
