Doctor Appointment and CVS

So today I had my routine check up appointment with my doctor at the Wellness Center to review the results of my blood draw from about a month or so ago.  And I must've been fighting something off or in the midst of a cold or something that I wasn't necessarily showing symptoms before, but had an effect on my immune system nonetheless because the day of my blood draw I called it.  I said to my mom "watch, my cd4 count is going to be lower than last time."  And sure enough, my cd4 count dropped from the 800 range to 796 this time around.  My viral load is still undetectable though (less than 20) so thankfully that hasn't changed.  Something else embarrassing did pop up though.  They did a full STD screening last time at my blood draw and I won't go into specifics, but apparently being a naughty boy caught up with me because I came back testing positive for something (I won't say for what).  I ended up getting a huge shot of antibiotics in my ass and it hurt like hell and I left the Wellness Center limping out of there making it clearly obvious to anyone who has had that done before know that "hey, he just got a shot in his ass! lol."
Other than that, the next exciting part of my day was having to go to CVS to pick up some prescriptions I needed.  I recently just had to transfer my entire prescription medication profile over to CVS from Walgreen's because (and I'm not proud of this) I got caught stealing at Walgreen's they put a note in my file that I'm now unable to pick up any medications from any Walgreen's anywhere.  So acting a fool and thinking I'm immune from consequences and still acting out in my addiction proves it does not do anything but bring consequences and unmanageability to my life.  But I digress:  I went to CVS, tried to pick up 2 meds I needed, only to be told there was a total cost due of $4.80.  That's all fine and good because that's super cheap, however, I didn't even have that on me because my mom is the one who holds access to all my finances and funds per her title of "guardian" and me as the ward on the bank account we have set up.  So I left CVS empty handed and she has to bring me money in the morning so I can go back there tomorrow and pick up my medications.  Long story short:  today was annoying.  And on top of that, I didn't make it to a meeting today, so I'm feeling a little extra crazier than usual.  I'm planning on going to a meeting tomorrow morning at 10:30 though before my interview with the owner of InvestPro Realty so hopefully that'll be a panacea to my case of crazies.
