Hello Shirley and all the OFF family.
Trish, I'm so sorry for your experience with the ER. How horrible. Our health care in this country is not what it use to be. Not enough staff makes it hard on everyone. Patients don't come first. The bottom line is what administration is looking at.
I got 2 loads of laundry done yesterday and one in the washer right now. We are cleaning out the laundry and storage rooms for the upcoming remodeling job. Found 2 tubs of my clothes which are 3X that I'm in now and 2X that I'll be in shortly. And 90% are summer shorts and tops. Perfect.
I have an appointment with my PNP today. I read lots of information about the medications I'm on. I found out that the 2 antidepressants I'm on should not be given together except in extreme conditions. They (Mayo Clinic) said the 2 in combination have more risks than benefit. Also one of the 2 (Effexor) can cause disruption of normal sleep patterns. In the last few months the PNP has doubled the dosage. I bet that's why I'm not going into the REM stage. So it ought to be interesting to see how he responds to all this information.
I lost 3 pounds this week. I'm so happy! I was afraid my honeymoon period was over early. Just a stall. When I lose 4 more pounds I will be below 240. I had 2 medical people say that with my age and trouble walking that I would only get down to 240 to 250. They told me to be realistic about my situation. Soon I shall show them who is boss over my body. Glad I didn't listen to them.
Need to go do breakfast dishes and change laundry around. Hugs to all. Have a wonderful and blessed day. Mag
