Good news finally!

Got awesome news yesterday from my endo. He emailed me through my health track (It's something UPMC has that you can not only communicate with your doctors, but also see all of your lab and tests results, request medication refills, do all of your appointments. It pretty neat actually) he told me that my TSH is where they want it and my thyroglobulin is pretty low it's 2.0 actually so he said there shouldn't be any surprises when I go to do my thyroid studies in April. Which is awesome news, hopefully no spread to my lungs, or bones, or anywhere else! Expect the worst but hope for the best, that's what I told him. I finally feel like I can breathe, and to have this news given to me on Easter weekend just has so much more significance.


An update on my FMLA, this is how much of assholes the hospital I work for is being to me.
I went down to my HR the day before my doctors appointment to pick up FMLA papers so my doctor could fill my paper work out. Now I knew on Wednesday I was still 10 hours short of having all of my hours in, but it being Sunday night I have worked all those hours and then some. And also mind you I still have my FMLA papers in my possession, I have not turned them in. Well before leaving for work yesterday I checked my mail and in there was something from my place of work. I open it and what is it, nothing else but a denial letter denying me my FMLA that I never even filed dated for the day I went down to pick up the paperwork! How can you deny someone something they haven't even filed for? And it was for nothing more than not having enough hours in. Really? Ok I'll come to work radioactive. Just sit me in the decon room all day. But that's right you don't even know what I need an FMLA for let alone when I need it for since you never laid eyes on my paperwork HR! I would be very ashamed to work in that department, and at times am ashamed to work for that facility. It's a very sad loss for humanity, but I'm going to keep on fighting the good fight because that's what I've got to do! Because I know this world is not a total loss. Caner has given me a new lease on life and I do see beautiful things in this world where I once did not see them, and I also see ugly things in this world too, you just have to realize that even though you can't fix all of the ugly you can fix some of it. So I'm starting with my HR department. Wish me luck, because no one who is sick should have to worry about this.
