Title: yesterday , today, and tomorrow...
Post by cerebus on Dec 10th, 2002, 7:37pm
 Yesterday was rough, basically folks I plain passed out while stirring a cup of coffee at work ..trying to get my morning started. When I had left the house Woobie had asked me how I felt, I started with the usual " ok I guess" but decided instead to tell the plain truth. I HURT, not just my head , but all over, every square inch of my body cried out in pain,but, I Ignored it and left for work anyway. I got to work ok, and went about my usual routine.....pouring myself a cup of coffee and greeting my boss just before clocking in for the day.
 I awoke to my both of my bosses trying to revive me and trying to pick me up off the floor all the while asking me if I could hear them and if I was ok, when the Beast made His "official" entrance. I immediately clutched my head in agony and began writhing on the tile. As Both of them looked on in utter shock of what was happening before them, one, managed to squeeze out the words "Can we get you anything?" which Boomed in my head as if a Drum Corps. competition were being held there. I managed only to point to my "portable Pharmacy"  and ravaged through it desperately searching for my imitrex injections and eventually gave myself a shot.
 This information after the blackout comes only from the accounts of my bosses as I remember nothing beyond pouring the coffee till after the injection.

 Today...I had a psychiatric appointment...and guess what? A new med. jeez people, I am so sick of pills ,I really don't want anymore than what I got. Remeron of all things, seems she thinks I need sleep and the munchies on top of the anti-depressant effects. the only benefit is that instead of taking the whole recommended dose I get to taper up at my leisure, to, "hopefully lessen side effects". Anyway, after my appointment I had to drive even farther to the edge of town to exchange an empty O2 bottle and then drive all the way back across town for an appointment with the family GP for my eldest daugter. I left the house at 1 p.m. cst, and arrived home after going to the pharmacy to pick up even more meds at around 5:30p.m. only to have to make dinner and feed the family. I'm wiped out.
  Tomorrow....I have to return to work at 8 a.m.

I am stretched to my limits....I'm afraid to go to bed for fear of the beast whom I THOUGHT was gone for the year, and now I'm worried on top of that about this new med. And I am totally embarassed about the scene I caused two days prior even though there were only two witnesses (everyone already knows).

I just don't know what to do anymore.
