Daily Check In Thread For All... #133

many healing thoughts pitmom. I awoke at 6am, I thought it was 6pm. I rang my therapist with a long message, looked outside, bright, looked at the clock, seen morning news and rang again, wendy, I have lost the plot, see you at 1pm. bar a piece of tust at 2.50 am, I slept 11 hours. needed that. dreams, wow, I was trippin dudes!!! love ya all.

I couldn't go to work today. I'll call in sick tomorrow too. I don't know where to take the energy from.

I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow.

I dislike mobile phones, but with mum infirm and not cognisant, my bro severely unwell, sis mum's carer, other sis running her business I sort of need one. sis is getting a basic bugger. got my pharmacist to laugh, he looks after me, sis and mum, I said with everything going on give me all of the benzo's ya got. we laughed. he had contact with the hospital for mum yesterday. as Karen has correctly said, and the same info I give out, 'one day at a time'.

a bit of angina the last week. last day or so, intense, hit the nitro, has helped. only used the nitro a few times. let's keep it this way Jamie. no more ha's for this turtle!!

slow deep breaths.

me, it's all happening as us Aussies say.

hey hey, it's a fat turtle!!!

It goes up and down with this depression. I got a script for Zoloft. My GP had no concerns about taking Zoloft (50 mg) together with Wellbutrin (300 mg). When I search online, I find that these two don't get along very well. Now I'm reluctant to take Zoloft. Has anyone here taken the two together? What was your experience?

Hey all,

Sunny today, a little windy but nice. Took Jasmine to the groomers this morning. Miss her but trying to think of it as a mini vacation. Ha!!!

Pitmom, sounds like you got some nice plants. I Love plants and gardens.

Still praying for you. Hope you are safe.

Hugs to all!!!

Karen...

Hi Karen,
Nice to hear from you.
Cloudy but no rain today (oops, better not jinx us) Cold out, though...had to turn on the furnace for the first time.

The wildlife have a great memory. Deer have been very active returning to the crab apple tree they visit each fall. Six or seven right now chomping on the fallen delights. They're fun to watch. Little ones running around like toddlers chasing each other.

My health is the pits, tho...think I've already told you about my legs. No improvement and it's now seven weeks on the twice a day medication. I fear surgery is next.

See ya tomorrow, and BTW, don't feel obliged to post on the smiler thread. I know you're there, and you have lots of other more important stuff to answer.

Karen, about seven or eight months ago i started having pain in my right leg while walking (grocery shopping...etc)
It took a long time for my Cardio doc to agree to what I diagnosed (after searching on the internet).. and thought was peripheral artery disease. He said it was arthritis.

Anyway..months later and finally, after much testing that proved I had very little blood flow (claudication) in one leg he prescribed a pill . I've taken the med for seven weeks now, and its caused my other foot and ankle to swell so much I couldn't wear shoes.

I changed Cardio doctors last week and now have an appointment with a Vascular surgeon. A stent will probably be needed.

Thanks for letting me 'share' !

Feel better, Ms. Joyce. A stent is a fairly lower risk procedure nowadays. Still scary,though.

Hope you had a pleasant day Ms. Karen.

We went to see the Minions movie at our local discount theatre--a special 11 am showing especially for families. It was a blast! Vietnamese for lunch, and then BF told me to take a bath and relax, and he will do the shopping. Leftovers for dinner. I caught up on a bit of sleep.

Be well,safe,and happy,all!!

Joyce, I hope you feel better. I hope you'll be okay. I hope the stent will help the issue and you may not need the surgery.

Karen, you've still gone down to 1/2 pack. You should be proud of you. I am. Hope you are okay these days.

That's nice of your bf Myself. I know things were a bit rough in the past and you were going to start couple's therapy. How are thing with you two now?

Thinking of you Jamie.

Hi pitmom and Andrina.

In August, I had to write the ELPT examination as a pre-requisite for one of the courses for school. It was tough for me and I as prepared to repeat it in November. I got the results yesterday and I passed. No repeat needed.
My weekend is filled with the usual chores, stuff for work and assignments. Distracts me when I feel down.

Good Night All!
