the medicine is worse than the sickness!
I thought it was an antibiotic the Dr gave me. It is Donatal which is Bella Donna and a phenbarbitol drug. It is supposed to "relax" my intestines. There is a 2 1/2 page small print warning booklet. Sheesh! it says "may cause dizziness." It is making me really loopy and I can't take it. I could never get drunk or do drugs because I could never deal with the feeling that I was not in control of my body. This is why I suffer so bad with the panic attacks. And it almost feels like a panic attack. And now I am constipated on top of everything else. and starting to come down with a cold. (sneezing/sort throat/headache).
I tossed and turned all last night so I did not sleep great, although I was in bed almost 10 hrs. I have to call the Dr's office and get off this stuff. I feel fine until I eat. A few minutes after I eat is when my intestines get uncomfortable.
Thank God I have been able to work from home all week.
On a hopefully positive note, I am trying to help my mom find a puppy. Tibetan Terrier. 3 breeders responded and puppies are $2000! So I contacted a rescue yesterday.
Eating is obviously not great this week, low calories. NO exercise at all this week. Praying to be back to myself. I most likely won't go bowling tonight.
