I really liked Maxalt. It killed my migraine and made me sleepy. I've never heard of Frova. What do you like about it?

Checking in. Feeling decent the last few days. Work has been frustrating, though. Have a big report I've been working on and progress has been slow.

I've had a couple of better days!
Was able to get out for the last two afternoons.
I was deep in the country with H yesterday, up in the mountains.
It was beautiful and we'd had a great time.

Med error today messed me up. Accidentally took Klonopin when I had meant to take Adderall. Turned into an unexpected nap. Oh well!

I hope everyone is having a fun day!

Well I have a bit before I have to turn around and get N2 (long drive. Half hour anyway) so I'm going to lay down for a bit. Still worn out from the migraine.

[Faltering]

I'm doing okay except for the random bouts of anger. I was able to pick up my med - it's fortunately still covered by insurance this month.
I have two job interviews on Monday. I need to nail both because right now I have few prospects.

Worked fairly quickly and seemed to also have a preventive aspect.

Went to the neurosurgeon this afternoon. My back is in good shape on that front. Got another referral to pain management for the pain. Also made another appointment for dermatology as I still have a rash on my forehead.

Other than that I've been reading and cleaning the kitchen. Making pot roast for dinner - smells good.

I'll be right over for dinner. Just gonna change my clothes quickly.

I'm glad your back is okay from a surgical standpoint. Sorry you are in pain.

The girls want to go back on the jet ski tour again tomorrow...they had so much fun. I don't really care for any more terror on the high seas but I'll get my stiff, aching body back on the jet ski for them. I really, really, really don't want to do this. I'm ready to go home. Heading down to the beach.

Hugs to everybody.

6:55 pm, if I new I could sleep through until 7am I'd go to sleep now. Feel ok but zero motivation to do anything.

[scatterbrained04]

Was being *****y at work all afternoon accompanied by diarrhea of the mouth. Having a rough evening. Feel pretty depressed. Guess my brain decided it's not done being a d i c k.

[VerMOZZica]

I got some household chores done today.Then I went to movies with my little sis and my nieces and nephew.We went to see Wonder Woman. I was glad I got some stuff done today and glad that I actually got out of the house today.Usually I don`t feel like going anywhere.

[Moose72]

Hmmm. N3 is awake and I heard typing sounds from his room when I tried to wake him up a few minutes ago. "Mother, I'm awake," he said! Wonder if he stayed up all night!

[hopeless2015]

Procedure went well yesterday, everything looked good but still have some inflammation in my lungs. Up and at work today. We have our annual summer party at a co-workers house today from 3:30-6:30, I really don't want to go but I guess I will...feel kind of obligated...sigh I guess it gets me out of work early this afternoon lol

[Faltering]

I'm angry and paranoid today. Just trying to make it through. I see my pdoc in a week.

[liveforsummer]

Still feel thoroughly unmotivated. Have a mountain of cleaning, laundry and grocery shopping to do. Just got in from walk and sitting on the couch trying to muster up the motivation. Really just wanna crawl back into bed. Hmm maybe AD not working after all.

Feeling a little uncomfortable here...

I removed the "GD" note from my signature just a few days ago as it didn't really seem relevant to what I was posting here, but to be clear, I come with xy original equipment and its the hormones associated with it that I can't handle. I make no pretense about how someone should see me one way or the other, as long as there is no insistence that I allow testosterone to ever touch my brain again in quantity.

I get that its a hot button for some, so I hope this isn't a problem here.

Dear rwwff,
GD is a very real condition from which many suffer. I am sorry for any discomfort you may suffer in trying to cope with GD. If you are offering this because of what's happened on the forum, please know we know you are very genuine. You are not doing anything fraudulent.
It's a pleasure to have you here. I enjoy your posts very much!

For anyone puzzled by rwwff's post, GD=Gender Dysphoria

As for myself, I'm a little down and have two services here at the cemetery today. The good news is, both my boys and my wife return home today after a week away. (Secretly, I'm most happy because it means someone else can walk the dog.)

Thanks. Both physical and psych doc's manage it well; and all, in all, I'm quite comfortable for now. Just didn't want anyone to feel mislead one way or the other. I kinda feel in-between at the moment. odd, but what else can one call it?

[Unrigged64072835]

I'm in a bad space at the moment. Full of sadness. Hope it doesn't spiral into depression. This is a hard time of year for me. I usually end up IP around July.

Anxiety kicked in at 11:30 AM. Laid down and didn't get up until 3 PM, when the mowers were out. Still feel tired and sad. Will need to cook soon but I thought my husband talked about going to an Asian place for food. Don't know if that will happen. Haven't seen him all day.

Both knees hurt and it's tough moving around. Also ran out of treats to keep my blood sugar up midday.

[liveforsummer]

Beautiful day here, finally motivated myself and cleaned the bathroom, laundry and groceries and will start supper soon. Maybe go for another walk this evening as feeling bit better

[Moose72]

My primary wrote me a script for Maxalt and it was approved by my insurance! I went into my new pharmacy today and they informed me of this! It worked so well several years ago when I used it, but then insurance stopped paying. Maybe they figured its cheaper than ER visits?

Had Friday lunch. Had a piece of fried chicken. Gave the other two to the kids. There were only four of us because four others had to cancel, including N3- he thought he had a half day, but did not.

Had a nice day over all. Talked with a good friend on the phone for a while. The weather was very nice.

I took a nap when I got home for two hours and now I worry I won't be able to sleep tonight, but at least its Friday.

Been reading one of my books the last week, "Moreschi and the Voice of the Castrato". I think I have two copies of the same thing, one hard copy one paperback. Never read either and had them for 15 years, or so. Its sort of a dry read, but fun to know the history behind the man who was history's "last castrato". Hmm... The other book is called "Moreschi: The Last Castrato". Maybe they're two different books? That would be cool.

I'm sorry you are having a tough time.

I hope you obtain some relief soon.

So I got a call from my pharmacy and they told me my prescription is unavailable. My psychiatrist is going to have to put me on a substitute, which is making me very nervous. I don't know what is going to happen. I have enough of my current medication to get me through until Monday of the following week, but I am still nervous because I expected a call from my pdoc already. Other than that, I had an eye exam today. That went pretty well. Getting new glasses; should be available by the end of next week. Pretty pricey the frames I chose. I was a little nervous however about telling them I was taking lithium for Bipolar Disorder. I don't know why I felt that way. It was sort of daunting. I also need to let my dentist know. I understand they have to know so they can make accommodations to the medication they prescribe me in case they find a problem and they need to put me on medicine. But I was still nervous for some reason. I hope my pdoc can find suitable substitute for me as well.
