Well Steve is mentally clearing up some

The Metformin was just making him legit crazy.. he went off on a yelling fit at me for no reason not that there would ever be a reason to do so a week ago Friday. I got him in with the Doctor on Tuesday AM ( they were closed Monday)

He was taken off Metformin right away , but I had stopped it on Saturday anyway... They put him on Glipizide 2.5 mg twice a day and his numbers are coming way down.

Hes more steady on his feet, He actually went out and spent some time on his mower, He did stop and take breaks, and he knows he cant just go mow 3 acres at once like before.

We were just talking about something and he started talking about something that just flat didn't fit into the conversation , so still some confusion..

I started back on Latuda 80mg and Doxepin last night and didnt have any issue, I didn't expect any to be honest. Monday I'll call to restart the Lamictal. I was able to sleep , but it was due to Ambien 10mg But for now I'm okay with it the chemical take down sleep.

Altho I am thrilled that Steve is doing better in some small ways I am not going to get all excited yet, He mentioned driving to get gas tomorrow and I said I still think we need to wait a bit longer and he was okay about it.

My T is calling me Monday just to touch base. I just never call him between sessions as I dont want to bother him and hes always giving me hell about it, So Wednesday he gave me no choice... " I am calling Monday at 9:30 and you better answer" I know he means well and is very worried about me, But I still hate to bother anyone ( long standing issues that at my age isnt going to change)

Hope everyone is having a nice weekend and stay cool.. Heat index here is 100-105 .. Ugh No thanks.. I am fine staying inside.. I'm to fat to be outside

Hugs and cookies to all ~
