They started me n Lyrica bout a month and a half ago. We are now at a good dose. The Fibromialgia  is getting under control, less pain = less stress, more sleep and better mood. Sound great doesn't it. We will be slowly increasing the dose until it is fully controlled or I have side effects, then they will lower it.

Now, I have to learn MODERATION, a word not in my vocabulary. I am use to if I feel good I need to do as much as possible because its temperary. Needless to say, I did so much over 4 days that I spent 2 days in bed. So now I am going to try to do a little everday so I dont get that far own again. OK, I admit, 4 1/2 hours shampooing he kitchen rug was probably ove the limit, but it looks really good now.

Take care all and thanks for the support.

Well, here it is the end of February already.  My health still sucks. Wish I could stop losing weight. I went from 30lbs over weight to 35lbs under weight. That sucks. That means instead of 30gm IVIG every month month like I NEED, I will get 10gm. Dont even know if that dose will work at all. Have had bronchitis for over 3months now, just gets really old. Seeing a counselor now. Going well, actually. I guess I know what to do but I just need someone to say "hey do it" lol. Sounds llike me doesn't it.

The kids are doing pretty good. they all see the counselor (except NINA). THey also have PSR workers, who who take them out a couple times a week and give them a break from the house. They take them to eat often which is fine since there is like almost no food in the house.

My hubby, who is not supposed to be here is still here. He got a job about a month ago at Radio Shack. Its only about 20 hours a week at minimum wage but it gets him out of the house.

Gotta run, though I would give you all an update. Thanks for all the love, understanding and support you all have given me.
