Hi,
I'm really new to this website, I've very glad I found it though because it is very helpful and gives you hope. Here lately, I have been having nitemares which I had before my clipping suregery in Feb 2009and they are not about anything in particular, just scary. Also I have found a med for my headaces it is fiorocet with tynenol and it also has 3 more ingredients in it which are(acetaminophen, butalbital, and caffeine) but I didn't want to take pain meds because they are highly addictive and I didn't want to get addictive, my PCP said that this was a better option and my neurologist said that getting addictive to this med is very rare. Another question I have is regarding Prozac. My Psychiatrist put me on 20mgfor 6 days and then 40mg a day for depression I took them in the morning.Well it seemed that when I started taking them I started to have negative thoughts. Idon't know if it is all in my head or not. I was wondering if anyone who had an anerysm is taking Prozac. I just would like to feel better and get some advice. Going through this is just so hard but I'm alive all of us are alive! Thank you God! Also I went to see a neurologist in my area yesterday and I lost some feeling in my left side because of the aneurysm and he told me that in 6 months if I still have some loss of feeling I' dpretty much be that way for the rese of my life. Has anyone else heard anytrhing like this? Please excuse my spelling.
Thanks,
Jennifer
