managed to get my pdoc appointment moved to today from like, around the 14th. as most of you know, anxiety has been creating too much havoc in my personal life. last Thursday, for example, i so did not want to go to hockey practice because i was too nervous. (we’re off tonight.) i took an Ativan before we left, which didn’t help. after we were on the ice for about half an hour, i began to feel nauseous, so i got off the ice. Brian helped me into the lobby and out of the upper part of my gear.
even so, i began hyperventilating and was on the verge of a full-blown anxiety attack. we paged the pdoc who said there was nothing he could do until he saw me, and that was today.
he replaced the 150mg of trazodone with 100 mg of Seroquel at night, and 25mg Seroquel as needed, which takes place of the Ativan i took as needed. in addition, i’ll be on 2mg Klonopin twice a day (one table in each in the a.m. & p.m.)
the only bad news is that Seroquel can make you gain weight, so it’ll need to be monitored . luckily, Brian and i made it to the gym this morning!
just wanted to say “hi” and hang in there! big hugs!
Anxiety and stress are the real killers.
Pet a cat. Unless you’re allergic like me. Then that won’t help.
mamazilla, thanks! (((hugs)))
dan, how about petting a Jedi?
