Journal

I haven't written in awhile.for the last couple weeks I have been trying to adjust to a med change.My Pdoc is taking me off the trileptal.Tonight will be my last dose and then I'm off it.It has been depleting my body of sodium making my sodium levels dangerously low.They increased my other meds though so it hasn't been to hard for me.The only difference I notice is that sometimes it takes me longer to wake up in the mornings.I've never been a morning person anyway.I also found out that I have diabetes but that wasn't a shock.I had already suspected that I did.I'm doing ok with that.There are days when I don't feel good but I'm used to that by now.

Tuesday I had an appointment with my Pdoc.They increased my meds a little bit.I also found out that my therapist I see between Pdoc visits has left.Now I will be set up with a new one that I will have to get used to.I also got some lab work done that I needed to get done Tuesday.I got the results back this morning and I found out that I have diabetes.That isn't much of a shock.I pretty much knew that already.I've had the signs of it and my mom as well as most of my dad's side of the family has it.It seems like every time I do to the doctor they find something else wrong.My salt level is also dangerously low because of the trileptal so they are gonna have to change my meds.For now though my Pdoc wants to cut it down slowly and wean me off it and then try something else.That isn't going to be much fun at all.

I'm not feeling very well today.I haven't been for the last 2 days.I've been having trouble with my asthma.I've been keeping up with my meds for it but I've had to use my inhailor more than I should have to.Having asthma attacts wears me out.I have an appointment with my doctor later this month.Maybe I need an adjustment in my meds.I'm not sure.
