Thank you guys. It's been pretty hard on all of us. H is just now doing some reflecting and I think it's hitting him hard. Tomorrow will be the third day home alone which is really hard on me. Miguel does not want to change his diet so we are getting a second small fridge/freezer for us. H's upset he won't change his diet but I told him everything will take time. We all have to process this differently.

I haven't told him but I'm not handling it well. Meal time has always been a contention for us and I hope this wouldn't be as much now. But I don't have faith this will last. I don't know I might be getting depressed. I don't want to deal with this.

He's home, 10 meds. We had 1/2 peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. With salt free peanut butter for dinner. I didn't finish my half.

He should go to the pharmacy to see if any of these meds interact with others that he is taking or with each other.
Just my opinion.

I think you might benefit from going IP nothing wrong with going in and they just might be able to get you on some medications. This might also fast track you into seeing a pdoc sooner. I wish you the best of luck.

I hope you're able to eat the 350 calories with the Latuda and that it will help.

So far I'm better but still depressed. I have high calorie things to eat so I'm getting the 350 my Dr., Nutritionist, and dentist would not be happy but I have to do something. Mozzarella sticks, brownies, Mac and cheese, ice cream anything to get to that number and not get sick.

Went to the dentist today they have to pull my bottom teeth and replace them with implants. My upper teeth are up for discussion seeing getting the plan for what to do with my mouth probably mid March. I have a wedding to go to April and May. So I don't know what to do about that.

I would get a second opinion before going any further. how long have you had problems with your teeth. It sounds like a money racquet to me. What about dentures, way less expensive. I was just at the dentist myself. they wanted to do 8 crowns at about $10K, I said no crowns. I told them no crowns!
I will try to wear my mouth guard more often.

It's a dental school. For a fraction of the cost of a dental clinic. I won't know the full price until the 6-9 hour work up a treatment plan. I have horrible teeth mix between brushing them with baking soda and peroxide (when younger), bulimia, poor hygiene and bad genetics. Most of it will be covered by my medical. In FL they wanted to rip them all out and give me dentures. I'm not even 40 yet. So if they can save some great if not at least it's several Drs opinions. They said the whole thing for my bottoms should cost around 2k that my insurance doesn't cover. I think we're going to get the treatment plan then sit down and figure out what to do. At this point I can't eat hard foods, cold foods or hot foods. I'm actually hopeful. A lot of my safety food I can't eat like fruit and raw vegetables. Baby carrots. So if my teeth stop breaking and I can eat healthier it'll be great. I'm not really worried about them over selling because I don't have money if it's to expensive I just get what medical will pay.
