It's been "one of those weeks" or at least last week was.  The Psych doc had put me on this new drug Viibryd which I'd posted about and liked initially.  However, when I upped the dose to the standard dose, my blood pressure went up with it.  So, I'd taken my first dose at 40mg on Friday (before last) and during the night I wake up to this sharp ( Read more... )

I'm awake way too early.  Been awake since like 2, finally got out of bed at 2:30 and decided to work on getting my grocery list together and coupons sorted.

As of Monday the cold part wasn't so ( Read more... )

The appointment went much better than I expected yesterday. I attribute that to xanax. It took about 3 hours for them to do everything (build up the back bottom molars, build a shelf onto the back of my top front teeth and put on all the braces - minus the ones that went on 3 months ago). The pain wasn't/isn't too bad. My teeth are really tender ( Read more... )

I'm sitting in the living room listening to my alarm clock blare in my bedroom. Well not really blare, the door is shut... but I can hear it and I'm still sitting here ( Read more... )
