>tks .. my room's a mess (not like me at all) and my memory is too. I should write down post numbers (there's paper all around me but not w/o something on it) okay... i'm writin' it down (but is it the 1st or 2nd set of #s I ask myself, so write down both) ok
> not sure why you don't want to try lithium?
>I guess I've been around meds and medical talk for so long, and right now I'm feeling so weak and fragile, ... think it scares me to be tried on anything 'big', FLOBW, here alone.
> did you try lamotrigine, and find side effects?
>What's this one?
> how long were you on nort? if it was a week or so it m ight just need abit more time to start working and lower side effects. NA reuptake can help with pain, i think it might take longer to start to work.
>I think it's been at least 3wks or going on 4th week. Just stopped couple days ago. Last eve' Armour thyroid and Folbic acid were taken away from me (off formulary/organization took over prescription coverage part D Medicare) and no one, neither pdoc or psych, returned my call asking 'what do I do?'.
Apologize is missed a post. Ya' know, I think I'd like to ask a favor. Would one of you be able to pls just write a short list of everyone's suggested med for augmenting or changing? I'm sorry; probably asking a lot, but, I think I'm tired of taking care of myself, I mean doing all the footwork for the doctors. I've done so much damn self-advocating, and truthfully, I think now maybe this has been a negative instead of a positive. Maybe they want to play god w/ my body. Maybe just some. I dunno.
> also, have you tried clonidine?>
Can't think of brand name for this either d/r
>especially for PTSD, might help with pain too. and also calming adn sedating.
>well thank you so much .. so damn weary can't even capitalize the first word of sentence, so 'the hell w/ the period'
> -d/r
thank you so much for caring, and if you or anyone is able to sorta' steer me, would appreciate; nothing to give back right now though but my heart to all
