Well...after endless days since my hospital stay, I finally met with my new pdoc. She was amazing. I love her! She was out of the office last week because she went to see the Dalai Lama! Yes....the Dalai Lama was at Indiana University and she was able to hear him speak. Anyway, my anxiety was still through the roof so she was able to see me at my best...talking a million miles a minute...all over the map. She had to ask me to stop and breathe several times.
Anway.....she took me off of the Provigil and doesn't want me to take it ever again b/c of the anxiety. She increased the topamax gradually over the next week or so from 100 to 200. I still have the xanax. I will be meeting with another nutritionist and taking Omega 3 and Folic Acid supplements (eating disorder issues). I will see the pdoc every two weeks and a therapist once a week. She doesn't want to diagnose anything right now. She just wants decrease all of the anxiety right now so we can get to the root of the issues. I feel hopeful today and a bit better......
.....and one of the best things.....she has her beautiful golden retriever in the office with her....he just sits at your feet and puts his head on your foot....it is the most comforting feeling......
Thank you all so much for your support and well wishes.....I appreciate it!
