I feel for ya, cat.

I not only have to tell my doc, but I'm diabetic so I've got to tell my specialist and see how that might affect other stuff.

Frustrating. Our spouses and OP's act like those soldiers down in the missile silos. Their addictions to their brain chemical reactions they call "love" keeps them insulated in their little bunkers, absorbed in each other and the fantasyland they create, both turning their keys, oblivious or unconcerned that the world (the real one that exists outside of their stupor) is blowing up around them.

Until they come out some day for more supplies and get a heavy dose of the reality the rest of us are already suffering through.
