@Blueberrybook yeah you’re right. I ended up cutting out the 30 minutes on the treadmill for today. I took a 3 hour nap which was nice cause I only slept 6 hours last night

My primary doctor is concerned that Vraylar and gabapentin combined are not a good combination- giving me liver issues- and the dizziness dry mouth, nausea, weight gain, high liver enzymes.
My liver doctor said if my liver enzymes continue to be this high it will cause scarring. __________________ Ingrezza 80 mg Propranolol 40 mg Benztropine 1 mg Vraylar 1.5 mg, Gabapentin 300 Mania Sept/Oct 2024 Mania (July/August 2024) Mania (December 2023) Mixed episode/Hypomania (September 2023) Depression, Anxiety and Intrusive thoughts (September 2021) Depression & Psychosis (July/August 2021) Mania (April/May 2019) |

Been doing my typical Sunday, lazing around in my pjs and reading and watching tv. The Vikings are ahead but only by 13 pts at halftime, it’s anybody’s game.
I have a potluck at 5 and I’m bringing spinach popovers. So at 3:45 got to start the oven so it’s ready. Also need to call around and ask to borrow cookie sheets. I got rid of mine and didn’t know I was cooking anymore. I had no clue I was going to be so involved with the building activity. Yay, me! Got my meds all sorted for the week. Took a shower just now so I’m spiffy for the potluck. This one is my birthday celebration. Linda and another lady all have our birthdays this month. Linda and I are the same day, which unfortunately fall on thanksgiving this year. Growing up it was always uncomfortable to have my birthday on thanksgiving as we always got together with relatives and everyone made a big production of it. I didn’t like being the center of attention. __________________ Nammu …Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.

I finally vacuumed! And I cleaned the kitchen and both bathrooms! Ugh, I HATE cleaning SO much, but I'm glad it's done!
Now, I can read without intrusive thoughts about how much I should be cleaning. I have a new mystery to start, and it's overcast with a chance of rain, perfect weather for a mystery. If only it were not 80F outside so I could snuggle up with a hot drink while reading as well! __________________ Bipolar 1, PTSD, anorexia, panic disorder, ADHD Seroquel, Cymbalta, propanolol, buspirone, Trazodone, gabapentin, lamotrigine, hydroxyzine, There's a crack in everything.

Been a low key day. The sun is already outta here. Been working on my calendar. I did this really cool thing in photoshop but then the stupid computer said "nope, I don't support this" and ended that. Didn't save, so, yeah. Nice. Maybe tomorrow I'll remember what I did. Almost dinner and I hate ittttttttt

I've had more energy lately, and I've been able to concentrate a lot better. I wonder if my old stomach med was causing issues. I've been able to focus on a new TV show. Also I finished organzing my closet and I walked on my treadmill for 23 minutes. I used the heating pad right after so my side is ok. I legit think I'm just severely out of shape because all the moving around I did yesterday and today has helped out my pain a lot. Plus the new med and the pepcid is helping my nausea
I looked up this girl on Facebook who was so creepy who started copying me. Like brands of clothes I wore, and she started eating international chocolate and she would post the same posts after I posted them. Just super creepy things. In the profile picture she recently posted she is wearing a T shirt that is a brand she copied off me. She has a huge rack though lol. __________________ I'm Blue Last edited by Mountaindewed; Today at 04:59 PM.. |

My pnurse doesn’t return until the 25th. I don’t know if I can make it that long.

@Moose72 Can you see someone else? I know this varies; it would be hard for me to get in with anyone else where I go but I don't think most places are as strict as where I go/who my pdoc trusts with her patients (if I saw someone else it would probably be a resident).
Have you been on other anti-seizure/mood stabilizers like trileptal, tegretol, depakote, topirimate? I was even on Keppra once although that was a long time ago and I've never heard of anyone else trying it. But if you are running out of options it's worth bringing up as a last ditch thing. Before I went on clozaril we went through absolutely every drug possible to see if they'd work instead and still be safe for me. ECT was considered but they decided I wasn't a good candidate at the time. I don't remember why. But I do understand the feeling of "what now?" and I went through a few weeks of that with my pdoc on vacation. __________________ Bipolar 1, PTSD, GAD, OCD.
