I tend to nap during the day. Sometimes it seems as if I can sleep better during the day. I don't know why that is, I know its a little backwards.
I didn't do much today except for trying to work on some homework. I have a goal of finishing some tonight and finishing the rest tomorrow so we will see if I accomplish that.View Thread

I don't know that it is possible to never have any symptoms. I would think stability means that for the most part you are not experiencing symptoms. At least that is my goal. I strive for those periods when I feel "normal". I wouldn't call it settling for second best as much as I would call it striving for the best that I can be. I don't think you are missing anything because you and your doc are trying to find the best med combo for you. It also depends on what symptoms you are experiencing when you feel you are not stable. Are they manageable symptoms?
This is the question you have to answer.View Thread

I helped put up a Christmas tree today, that is about it. Maybe tomorrow you can take another shot at going through the bills. It's a good thing you don't feel bad, you don't need to. There's always tomorrow.View Thread

I have to agree with cookie. I don't think this is your fault. Your doctor is supposed to be there to listen to you. If he is not listening to you maybe it is time for a new Dr. You should be able to get your paperwork done in a timely manner too. Especially since you won't get paid unless it is completed. I've been in the position of needing paperwork filled out or medical records faxed and my doctor was pokey about it too. It's like they don't realize or care how important that paperwork is. You shouldn't blame yourself if you have been telling him how it's been for you.View Thread

Good morning:
You were up early today. I don't know the answer to the question. It would be a good question for Dr. G. I personally haven't experienced that but I wouldn't freak out about it just yet. Hopefully you will be able to accomplish your goal today. Take it easy though because you are already sore.View Thread

Good afternoon all;
Weather: nice, 51 degrees.
Sleep: not good
Mood: ok
How do you feel? I have a migraine right now so not good.
Plans: Lots of homework today. Have to get going on it because I have been putting it off. Pick my daughter up from school and help her with her homework. That's it.View Thread

I would give it a couple more weeks, but definitely not more than that. If you don't feel better by then, talk to your doctor. I'm not sure how long it should take for you to notice the difference from the increase in the meds.View Thread
