sick! Mood
Thursday, April 2, 2009

So I just went to the doctor yesterday and took a sick day from my day program.  It's the same crap I get every season, only more painful for some reason.  My throat has been sore and I feel like I have a lump in my throat for about two weeks.  Takes a lot to get me to go to a doctor! Cough, runny nose, the works.  I don't feel much better today.

 

Oh yes, anyone out there on Lamictal?  Does it make you have very vivid dreams?  I'm just curious... I've been taking Lamictal for about a month now, and for the past week or so, I've been having these really elaborate and strange dreams that  I still remember upon waking.  Should write them down!  Some of them are quite bizarre!  Not scary, though.  At least, not so far.

 

My sore throat has made it hard to eat really much of anything.  Maybe I'll finally break through this plateau I'm on.  Man, it really hurts.  It hurts to swallow any kind of food.  Coughing is majorly painful.  I'm taking mucinex and robitussin for my ailments, but it doesn't seem to work so far.  

 

Weighed in at the doctor's office, and I was 2.5 lbs down from the day before.  My scale's not terribly accurate though. Oh boy to be at a low weight would make me happier like I was before....

    MissyS, Just this local program at CPC Behavioral Healthcare for my depression. I only go there half day, but I am going to start going to a support group at Somerset Medical Center (I've also been in their EDU several times:( ), probably this coming Tuesday if I can get my nerves up!
