I guess that means 59 is 60's waiting room.... where I'll be in less than a month. The waiting room, that is. It's a good thing I'll have a year in that waiting room to get used to the idea of turning 60! I can scarcely fathom it now. It just does not seem real. |

Kit, I'm glad the appointment went OK. I think a second opinion from another p-doc could be good. Also, is it possible the ADHD med could be contributing to things like hallucinations? I know there are some newer options for ADHD that aren't stimulants, so could one of those be a possibility? (I looked into them once regarding my D, though we haven't pursued them.) Getting a second opinion wouldn't mean that you'd have to leave your current pdoc.

Sometimes a second opinion can be really helpful.
When my ex-Pdoc went on maternity leave, I was transferred to the county and saw one of their Pdocs. It was then that ex-T abandoned me. I needed help asap. The Pdoc put me on an anti-psychotic, and it was the best thing that ever happened. While the specific med made too sleepy, ex-Pdoc came back and switched it to another anti-psychotic. I am still on that meds today and it's been a life saver, seriously. __________________ "Odium became your opium..." ~Epica |

Hey Guys! I got an appointment to go to the Animal Shelter on Saturday! 10 AM! Please y'all pray for me to get a cat that is cuddly! I really miss my Esther and I really want a cuddly cat. I only have one hour to pick one out I think. So please pray that I will know which one is the right one. I'm so excited right now. I wish it were Saturday!

Doctors aren't (or at least shouldn't) be offended when a patient gets a second opinion. It's a pretty common practice. Sometimes insurance insists on it even. My pdoc actually insisted himself that I get a second opinion at one point because he wanted to be sure he wasn't missing something. I really respected that from him. A second opinion doesn't commit you to a new doctor. You can even get a report with the 2nd doctor's suggestions for your treatment to share with your current doctor. Sometimes fresh eyes can be helpful. |

I'm so excited for Saturday. I want to meet all the cats in the shelter, although my parents probably want a girl cat, and that's okay with me. I want to get the cuddliest one they have. I can't believe I have to wait two more days! So excited.

I hope you and your new cat both experience love at first sight! You're such a giving person and any kitty would be lucky to have you and I bet they can sense that. |

I decided to go swim after all just half the time, and I took it easy. Now I'm back home and just put a batch of banana muffins in the oven. Yum! I hate starting work at 5am but I have to admit I enjoy very much getting off work at 2pm. It's not even 5pm here yet and I'm feeling accomplished.

We have a new tourist campaign saying Holiday here as if we had a choice to go overseas.

Right? And then there's the red eyes... But yeah, I can hear them in the house with the windows closed. Then I step outside, and it's like I want to put my hands over my ears because it's so loud. Thankfully, they should be done this part of their life cycle soon... |
