I have tried 71 combinations of meds since I started treating this. I'm considered treatment resistant and I also have had some bad reactions to meds.

I had one year when I was mostly stable. But the meds made it so that when we found some of the magic requirements for my body I have had good spells even while symptomatic at times. There are times that it isn't good, like the last year, but before that all started I'd been doing pretty well for a year or so.

Right now I'm on a new med that really needs to work as I'm about out of options. At least I feel a bit better than I did a month ago.

But what I've learned is that stability is great but it's entirely possible to live a decent life when not reaching that goal of stability. Sometimes good enough is really not too bad.
