The Darkfae of Balmung

I’m kind of ambivalent to playing on Balmung lately, however. Not long after we lost the broiler, someone I was close to did something rather shitty, and I ended up just walking away from them entirely. Unfortunately, when the server opened again, they transferred back to the server. I’ve already run into him a couple of times at community RP events, and it really sort of drug me down.

There’s been consideration of moving off server, which is saying something since I started on Besaid. I’d leave a couple of characters on Balmung, remake a few to hold names in case I ever felt like transferring back. I haven’t really decided if that’s the answer though; I really don’t need the additional stress, since stress is literal pain thanks to the fibromyalgia.

I got a call a touch over a week agon from the main pharmacy I use. They had to do some sort of reauthorisation for the medication, which meant contacting my doctor and doing the whole process over again. Apparently they had some sort of massive update for certain kinds of medications that forced it.

This past Friday, I got a call telling me that the pharmacy chain cannot get the medication at all, as their supplier is out, and apparently has been for nearly a month. They wanted to call the doctor and try to get something else prescribed, but the migraine clinic has very specific medications it uses.

So I got a call on Saturday (every other Saturday, they have to do a half day to cover all the migraine shots that need to happen) from neurology asking if I wanted to try a different pharmacy chain. Then they called again today saying that they’d had some issues with the switch; that I might have to get it directly from the hospital pharmacy.

Luckily, at least for the moment, a pharmacy that’s about half way between myself and where the system’s main hospital was able to get it. It’s possible this will happen again, and if it does, I’m basically going to have to either get it at the hospital, or go to mail order.
