Pills and Parties

Dec 10, 2011 12:17

So I have 2 new pills to try. God knows I am running out of ones to try. The most common side effect I get is urination hesitation which of course is not a very common side effect BUT I get it. No matter how bad you have to pee or how long you have been needing to go you have to focus and concentrate to go. Sometimes I would be sitting there for up to 5 minutes. Three days of that and I could not deal with it anymore. So I have not been taking anything for my anxiety/depression for about the last 2 months. The only thing I had to take was Xanax which works great with no side effects but I was told its not a daily pill..take as needed and I never get refills on it and usually only get 20-30 pills at a time since its so addictive. Plus I have to go in to see the Doc to get it refilled...no calling in and getting it filled electronically.

So I now have Cymbalta to take and Trazodone to help me sleep. I think once I get the Cymbalta in my system and I can take it without any bad side effects that I can't handle I won't need the Trazodone. Just trying one at time to see. I don't have a script for the Cymbalta..she gave me samples to try. So if it agrees with me I can call in and I am sure she will prescribe it to me electronically.

I also have the Xanax if I need it. I am tired of trying new pills and trying to find something that works and doesn't have unbearable side effects. I have tried soo many pills its ridiculous! My cupboard looks like a damn pharmacy! LOL

Also my doctors got my disability paperwork...requesting copies of my medical records etc. My general doc went over some stuff with my yesterday and was asking me a ton of questions and then entering the info into a form or something on her laptop. She spent alot of time with me. It went well. I am sure based on what I had to tell her I am a good candidate for Disability. My Neuro I am sure won't even call me in. He is too busy and you can't just get an appointment in a weeks notice. He treats me for my MS and when I see him we talk alot and he knows about what was going on with my job siuation and physical restrictions and how I was fired from my last job etc. He is the one who did tell me I had to get out of retail. I hope he backs me up.

I protested my unemployment. Still waiting to hear back from them. Yay. I call Marvin again Monday.

Next weekend is going to busy. Friday is my birthday. Chris took it off. But he has to go in for a bit for a work xmas thingy since now he is a big shot so I will probably go wtih him for that. Then he plans on taking me out to dinner for my birthday. Saturday we have a family Xmas party at the Brother in law's. Sunday we have a family birthday/xmas party at my Grandparents with my parents. Its gonna be a fun weekend. And next week during the week I am exchanging gifts with my other Grandma. She always gives me money for my birthday and xmas.

Might head out to the local bar tonite for a few drinks and hear some live music. We haven't done that in awhile. We use to go like every other weekend but with me not working and having no income it has put a damper on our extracurricular activities.
