I went to take my medicine (Diamox) tonight and realized with the craziness of the holidays I hadn't taken it last night or this morning.

Hope you guys have a great (pain free) start to the new year!

I hope normal lasts for you - I think it will given your past exoeriences. . Diamox has a delayed reaction for me. Miss a few doses, monster headache 1 to 2 weeks later. An increase in dose doesn't take effect for 1 oto 2 months.
May this year bring a lot of normal, whatever form that takes.
Other than feeling more tired than normal and really thirsty, everything else is the same as it has been. My roaring headache is still the same, but I could see when I woke up today and that was a nice change.
Danielle - I hope that normal lasts for you! Sounds like it was the best New Year's gift.
Happy New Year to you both!
Brandee I'm so glad you got to have a somewhat normal New Years and no really bad side effects!
I hope you both have a great year!
