About Me
I suffer from a panic disorder which causes random attacks in the event of stress. I live in a small town and have a wonderful husband. I like to scrapbook in my spare time as well as reading, walking, and cooking. Any kind of dessert is my worst vice!!!

Hug
A Hug Certificate for You! If I could catch a rainbow I would do it just for you and share with you its beauty On the days you're feeling blue. If I could build a mountain You could call your very own; A place to find serenity, A place to be alone. If I could take your troubles I would toss them in the sea, But all these things I'm finding are impossible for me. I cannot build a mountain Or catch a rainbow fair, But let me be what I know best, A friend who's always there. This is a Hug Certificate!! Send One to All Your Friends Who You Think Deserve A Hug You might send it to your enemies as well! It'll really tick 'em off!

Support Groups
Close Anxiety
I'm a very stressed person but I do it to myself. I started having panic attacks when I was 20 years old. The first time I had friends rush me to the hospital thinking I was having a heart attack. I've probably had about 30 panic attacks since then. I was taken off my prescription for anxiety when my husband and I tried to get pregnant because it was a known cause of birth defects. I'm now readjusting to life back on the medicine and thought I could use a little more help!!
Treatments
- Ativan Working / Worked
- It makes me tired, helps me sleep and keeps my muscles from over working themselves. I didn't experience any bad side effects and it does manage to calm me down in the event of an attack.
- Zoloft Working / Worked
- Although this drug takes a while to get stored up in the system, I love it's performance with my panic disorder. Once I'm on it and its kept at the proper level in my body, I have no attacks.
- Reading Working / Worked
- Reading has helped me understand the whys and wheres of my anxiety. Understanding it is helping me control it!!
- Love Working / Worked
- I have a loving and supportive husband who helps me make light of the bad days.
Close Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)
I was diagnosed with PCOS in 2004.
Treatments
- Metformin Not Working
- Never did bring my periods back to normal.
- Oral Contraceptives Working / Worked
- I didn't experience any side effects on Yasmin. It was expensive but it helped.
Open Infertility
Type: Ovarian IssuesI have polycystic ovarian disease which makes it very difficult to get pregnant. I've also been told that a pregnancy for me could be very high risk.
Treatments
- Metformin Not Working
- Progesterone Working / Worked
- This did help to regulate my periods.
Open Diets & Weight Maintenance
I can't have babies until I cut out some of this weight!! So I'm on a mission to change my life so I can have lil ones and here I go!!!
Treatments
- Counting Calories Working / Worked
- Eat Less Working / Worked
- Physical Exercise Working / Worked
- Weight Watchers Working / Worked
- Kind of wastes time with the points bit but it works so I go with it.
