Went to the emergency room at Hackensack (New Jersey) University Medical Center (HUMC) yesterday.  Spent about 8 hours there trying to find out what is wrong with my throat. Long story but I am hoping the "Z-pack" that was prescribed will fix it.  All I know is that my throat has gotten progressively worse and without medical attention it wasn't going to get better.  I don't have health insurance so this little visit will be expensive.  I am all for health care reform, but I haven't heard of anything that will work for me.  I do qualify for insurance in 2 1/2 months at my new job... but this couldn't wait.  HUMC is a wonderful hospital and has saved my life twice since I first moved to NJ in 1986.  I should try to "Friend" them on Facebook :)))

I am starting to feel a little tiny bit better.

First Blog :)

This is my first blog posting. Not much to write cause I'm not doing much.  Dealing with a new job and a really bad sore throat. Hopefully the throat will get better as I don't have health insurance and that I will adjust to working a normal schedule in a normal job.
