Title: anyone in tri-state area feeling worse?
Post by justin on Mar 18^th, 2003, 11:00am

hey, just a thought,

i've been relatively pain free (maybe 10 breakthroughs since september) due to my new comination of depakote and verapamil. but the last couple weeks i've been getting 3-4 a week and last night i had 2, yesterday i had 2. so 4 in one day.

i live in NYC, just thought maybe it was because of the weather change. anyone else feel the same?

yeah it's weird. i mean i've been told i'm chronic by my doc. i really only would have a three pain free weeks a year twice a year. until i started the depakote and verapamil and then they just dissapeared. now all of a sudden they are coming back. i wonder if i am getting used to the meds and buildling up a tolerance or maybe they are just stronger now and breaking through the meds. i don't know. i'm not a happy camper....

Since you guys are all right there, why the heck haven't you registered for the convention?

Monday, March 10, I started taking amerge and fioricet in the morning and at night. I was pain free until Sunday, March 16. Sunday, Monday and today I woke up with one coming on @ 5am. Each of those mornings was remarkably foggy. Is it coincidence? Is there a website whereby a person can track certain weather characteristics by location and time? Am I being punished by supernatural forces for wanting to sleep in until the last possible second every day when I am not in a pain cycle?
Methinks the lack of sleep and the meds and the dealing with pain are giving me strange thoughts.
