    • About Me

      Lost my husband in February 2007. Work in Social Services for past 15 yrs. Mother of 17 & 20 yr olds. Christian, but not religious, more spiritual. Love reading, watching movies and listening to music. Having a hard time coping. Seems the pain is getting worse not better.

      My husband passed away on February 18, 2007 and my father passed away exactly 2 weeks later (to the day). I am the mother of a 17 & a 20 yr old. I've been in Social Services for over 15 yrs. Everyone thinks I'm superwoman, but I'm lost and I feel sad and alone most of the time and I have no one to turn to.

      Treatments

      Xanax Somewhat Helpful
      Use it to get to sleep sometime, not every night as prescribed.
      Zoloft Somewhat Helpful
      I was opposed to using it at first, but I started and I think its helping.
    • Close Stroke

      I had a stoke in my right pons area of my brain 2 years ago (06/18/05) that affected my left side. I can now walk, with a limp and my left hand is more useful but both are still spastic, hyper-reflexive, and I get tremors.

      Treatments

      Clopidogrel Considering
      I genuinely don't know whether or not its working
      Zanaflex Working / Worked
      just started taking this med, too soon to tell
