I finally saw my old medication management doctor today - we had a little mixup last Thursday, but it all worked out and here I am!
Back on Cymbalta starting today. The last time I was on these pills was Oct 13, 2006. My ups and downs were getting, well up and down too much. I hope this helps. I hope I get a more even keel, for my own sake and those around me.
Stressful time at work - yearly evaluation time. I'm not getting my promotion, despite the number of hours worked last year. But, I choose not to be angry about it, I choose to do whatever it takes to succeed for next year. And that's without being on any medication!
There's a training/testing in DC that I have been chosen for, right at the time of the Pleasant Hill Carnival. It's kind of like having a free vacation given to you by the company - they pay for the airfare and I take a few extra days of needed relaxation - for Hanover, with all of its faults, is still the only place I can truly relax and unwind. I think this will be true for as long as my parents are alive, so I'm flying home as much as I can before that big day comes. I've already got 2 other trips booked for this year at cheap airfares - one for the 20 year reunion in Sep and one for my nephew's weedding in OCtober.
So, the journey begins. I can't say I feel better - I went in really early this morning, biked in 95 degree air and smog, worked until 7:30 pm since I took a 3-hour lunch to make this appt happen, and have no appetite but am starving. BUT, Friday's a holiday and things can only get better. I hope. I hope. I hope.
