KristineB's Journal

THREE days without much sleep.  I am having hot flashes combined with skin "hallucinations" and itching, flash headaches and irregular heart beating along with instant panic attacks.

I constantly worry that the symptoms are made worse or even mostly caused by the medications I'm on for GERD, allergies and anxiety.  The Lorazepam did NOTHING to bring sleep to me for the last three days.  Tension over work.

I am going to get fresher flax seed and grind it in a coffee mill and take the prescribed dose (4 TBs) a day for a while.

Also I'm going to cut out the wine to see if it is adding to the symptoms.

I hope I don't have to give up coffee again.  Jesus.  I'm spent.
