Did you get one of those stupid OLD PERSON questionnaires asking if you are depressed, feel worthless, sad, want to hurt yourself? I would love to answer no to all of those, but does knocking sparrows out of trees with a slingshot count?

Did you get one of those stupid OLD PERSON questionnaires asking if you are depressed, feel worthless, sad, want to hurt yourself? I would live to answer no to all of those, but does knocking sparrows out of trees with a slingshot count?

I did but I didn't answer any of the questions. Our provider is pretty good but they are forced to ask all of those garbage things but don't enforce answering the questions.

Gee, just think of what I am missing by not going to the dr very often....

Last time I took dh to the doctor they had the obligatory "Are you depressed, do you own guns?" questions. Nona-u-bizness!

 

[Ridgetop]

. I never answer the "Do you own guns?" questions. Better not to advertise it to the government.

 

[Mike CHS]

Our provider doesn't ask the gun question.

All Boomers are manic depressed gun toting loonies don’t’cha know!

Or my favorite question, “When is the last time you had sex? My favorite answer, “30 minutes before I got here. It’s getting harder and harder to catch anybody and hold ‘em down.

Answer.... "With what"...... OMG...

I forgot to mention that even though it has only been a little over a month since I started doing the Rapatha injections for cholesterol, my blood work shows the count to be less than half what it was before I started. I had a little trouble getting the prescription straightened end but it all came out fine in the end.

I didn't realize it at first but the first two injections were considered a "trial" and when I got an email from the pharmacy, the email noted that my cost for them was $1519.00. We called and talked to them and they confirmed that was the cost to us. We confirmed that they could put them back on the shelf because that was not going to happen. We made a call to the outfit that handles prescriptions for Tricare and my cost now is $38.
