Guys, thank you so much for your concern. Your support means the world. I completely agree that I should have had my lithium level checked. I didn't because I would have had to drive all the way to that lab, a 26 miles round trip. I felt too sick to make the drive. David could have driven me, but I still felt so sick. Plus, I was afraid of being put into the hospital.
I did stop the lithium last night and if I can help it, I'm never touching that stuff again. I believe that the unwell feeling I've had for months from the Gabapentin was bad enough, then the lithium pushed it over the edge. I am done with both - but I have to reduce the Gaba more slowly.
Anyway, the popsicles were life saving in that they got something in my stomach and helped ease the nausea. I've been drinking loads of water. I wish I had some Gatorade but oh, well. I ate hot beef broth with salines in it and kept that down. I'm feeling brave, so I'll eat a cheese stick and drink some sarsaparilla. Fingers crossed.
A scary thing to go through! Well, I'm going to open my windows and get some "real" air in here.
There is a flower within my heart~Daisy, Daisy~Give me your answer, do~I'm half crazy, all for the love of you
