Why must life be so complicated? And why must it be so full of what you don’t want, with so much settling for second best? Unsurprisingly, I'm not going to be able to get Galileo back because they aren't partnered with any plans available to me right now. Their focus is mostly on the Northeast. They do have something called Teladoc, but I don’t know if I’ll go with them. You can use their services without insurance, but it’ll cost you. I just hate to get into something I like just to have to give it up in a year.

Tom realized that Florida has this scheme of putting out lots of low-cost plans every year only to jack up the price the next year, hoping people won’t notice or will stick with it out of convenience. The thought of combing through dozens of plans every single year, doing all that paperwork, and starting over with new doctors makes my head spin. But there might be some good in it. Before a PC could get too focused on hassling me about my thyroid, cholesterol, and blood pressure, I'd already be done with them. Plus, if I don’t like them, it’s only for a year.

I’m guessing I’m not getting that mouthguard. Why would I ever get what I actually want? Personally, I still think I have chronic fatigue. The best I can do is hope my A1C is down and try a CPAP again. Hopefully, I can get used to it, even though I don’t know if sleep apnea is a big factor in my fatigue. Until I can adjust to the device, I won’t know how much it contributes to it.

The weather is the only thing I like about Florida the more I think about it. Our lives are still so needlessly complicated and they shouldn't be for retirees. We can't control what health issues we get but the healthcare system shouldn't be so fucked up here or anywhere. It's like we're doomed to spend half of our lives doing health work and it will mostly be for nothing in the end because I still fear my fatigue is hopeless. No wonder it's so cheap here. The weather may be nice but the healthcare sucks, insurance of various kinds sucks, the people suck, etc. The only good and reliable doctor I have is the one I don't need...the glaucoma doc. I ain't going Hellen Keller! I may have a million other problems but I'm not going blind.
