But now I'm stable and still am on 100mg more of seroquel then I use to be.
The day I called off work I had an extremely busy day ahead of me (I'm a home health nurse), BUT I couldn't work....period! I have been off now for 2 months on FMLA and go back next monday. My doc wouldn't even consider letting me go back to work until I was stable for a few weeks.
I know how much it sucks, but you need a plan so you don't get worse ??

Thanks for the help. I am getting really tired and just want to go home and go to bed. I don't even want to eat.
My pdoc is really good about working with me. He did say he would take me out of work if needed, so that may be what happens.
I want to call out of work tomorrow and see if I can get in to the pdoc. Of course, it all depends on how I feel tomorrow.
Yes, a plan is good.....I sort of have one.
