Fark my health insurance company. They forced me to use mail order for maintenance medication three months ago. I requested my first refills two weeks ago. I received a notice this morning that two of the three prescriptions have been delayed and they expect to ship them in another two or three days. Looks like I'll get them the middle of next week.

It is only my farking heart medicine. Ranting

The one they shipped? One that I expected a delay because it recently went generic and they had to get a new prescription.

Edit: I replied to the message that some of my medicine was delayed asking if they would change the method of shipping to overnight or second day at no cost. They replied that they sent the one that wasn't delayed last week. Facepalm

Edit 2: They say they shipped it. Gave me a tracking number using a service I've not heard of. Checked the mail order website for clarification. It merely says...

Huh
They sent it using the UPS version of FedEx Smartpost (i.e. ships to local post office for them to deliver) even though I requested they expedite it. When I didn't receive it today, I tried tracking it. UPS says they delivered it to the post office Thursday. I can't find it in the USPS system. Ranting

The USPS tracking system is a joke. What I do is get the doctor to give me a 30 day prescription to fill locally and she sends a 90 day prescription to Medco. That way I don't run out when Medco can't get their act together, as I always have a buffer.

Fortunately I got a 15 day supply filled earlier this week for the one I really needed. Perhaps once I finally get them I should immediately order refills. laugh out loud

Went on a quick pizza run. My car overheated. I limped home with the heat on full blast. There is coolant in the engine compartment but I can't tell where it came from. Ranting

Did I mention it is 84 degrees out? laugh out loud

Edit: Engine cooled off enough to remove the radiator cap. Could not see coolant and the overflow was empty. Filled them both and started the car. Didn't overheat during the 10 minutes I ran it. Found a pool of coolant on the ground under passenger side. A quick inspection revealed a leak coming from the bottom passenger corner of the radiator. Either the lower hose went or the radiator has.

Thankfully, replacing the radiator in a 1999 Honda Civic Ex (manual transmission) appears to be rather easy. Drain it, remove one bolt, unplug the fan and remove two hoses and you can lift it straight up. [hondaunited.com]

I have BCBS and they will fark you every chance they get. Can you get a statement from the dr stating you have to have them? Sometimes that helps.

I did have a neck surgeon send me for shots but he didn't specify where. I will call and see if they can't send me a copy of that again. Thanks...good idea to add that to my grievance.

I am just so pissed off and undone that they are pulling this shit that I can hardly see straight.

I'm hoping I'll get them this afternoon. I'm covered if I don't.

Farking insurance companies. "ranting:
And now if I don't let one of their reps call me every so often for health advice then I automatically agree to pay higher premiums and co-pays. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic) So now this woman calls me every other farking week to go over shit I already know...over and over and over. She finally heard a bit of annoyance from me last time and said she could maybe call once every 6 months or so. Annoyed assholes.

I got one of those automated calls this morning. They always call when I'm supposed to be at work. All it says is to call and leave my information on their system so I can retrieve my "important" voice mail. AND they have the nerve to block their caller ID so my Privacy Manager service from AT&T picks up first. Annoyed

I have NO intention to call them back. Nono1

Maybe I wouldn't need the blood pressure medicine if they weren't so damn annoying. Mad
