About Me
I have struggled with BP for 15 years. I'm still alive... i figure that's something to be grateful for. These days the scope of my life has diminished significantly...so i try to be grateful for the little things.

Hug
hey... it is always wonderful to hear from you.. am so pleased to hear that you are feeling better... I too hope it lasts over the holidays... I think they are stressful times for everyone
I'm not sure about my med combo... just not sure what the abilify is supposed to do and have felt fuzzy headed lately so am debating dropping it... the seroquel I really need but it may be increasing my blood sugar so may have a hard decision to make there... will get my levels tested at the beginning of Jan and see... not willing to develop diabetes.. hopefully its not just increasing
no plans yet for xmas... Gav has 4 weeks left of work then he is off for the summer hols.. we hope to get away for a few days but will organise it nearer the time... I'm just looking forward to spending some time with him and getting out and about.. and it will be our last summer here so I want to take advantage of it as much as I can
we are just waiting for Millie's rabies blood test to come back.... am hoping she has the antibodies or she will not be allowed to travel with us.. and that I think would make me very unwell... but trying not to catastrophise about it.. again hope lady luck is on my side
sorry that is so long... again I'm so pleased you are feeling better x

Hug
hey.... I'm glad to hear you are feeling a little better.. sorry about the anxiety tho... I know how damn horrible it is
I'm still tired a lot...some of it is lifestyle and some of it is the seroquel I'm sure... am wondering if the seroquel is actually lowering my mood... I now take 600mg for agitation along with the lamictal and abilify... have tried to stop but its been quite hellish... am going to ask my shrink about an anti-depressant but he is not keen at all... so not sure about my meds at all.....they seemed to be working well and now not as good....
anyhow sorry for the whinge.... I hope we can catch up at some point... I do miss talking with you x -
Hug
its always so lovely to hear from you... its great you are reading again... I know you must stil miss Lina... I miss Ruby terribly sometimes.. I wish it was something neither of us had to experience :(
evrything ok here... apart from some chronic fatigue the last couple of day... one of my meds was increased so am waiting to see if that is the culprit.. not sure I can function like this.. again shall just have to wait and see
again.. lovely to hear from you x
