My friends I feel really bad that I haven't been responding to everyones discussions. I have only responded to a few and they where far and few between. I have been feeling down. I came from the doctors today. He is taking me off some of the medication I am on. He agrees I am a total mess. I am still getting very little sleep even with all the meds he has me on. I am a walking zombie in the mornings, my body is tired but my mind is wired for sound. I feel ready to crawl out of my own skin because I am so itchy. I am iritable. I have lots of aches in my body that seem pronounced. The doctor said that is a result of the meds. We are reducing and going from there. I am going to try and get my activity level back up on mylot, so bear with my my friends.

I too am guilty of not responding to people but it's not me, it's my computer! Lately mylot has been very, very slow and I can't figure out why. One day this week, I think it was Tuesday, it took me a half an hour to answer just one post and I didn't type a long answer either! A friend of mine defragmented and cleaned out my computer but it didn't help, he said it was just too old! So people out there, please bare with me also. I use to answer around 40 a night but not any more. Oh and about your meds, yes, I believe you are not having a good reaction to the mixture. One of the signs is being itchy all over, I am glad your doctor is reducing your medication, and good luck!

I can't take supplements because of possible interactions with my medications.

Sorry to hear that, Linda. I think the weather must have something to do with it. We had a really hot and humid day and then the temperature plummeted. That's enough to make anybody crazy. I more tired and achier myself the last couple of days. I probably could use more sleep. Take care of yourself, first and foremost.

There is no way we can respond to all our friends discussions, especially those that start 5 or more each day. No one expects you too, especially if you are feeling unwell. You say that all these distressing symptons are the result of medication you are on. Now I don't know what this medication is for, but hopefully the Doctor will find a suitable substitute, so you can continue to recover. Good Luck.

Oh my friend.... I am hoping that your symptoms subside as the meds get out of your system.. When do you go back to see your dr? Remember, I am only a message away.. Get some sleep! Looking forward to hearing from you soon!

Wow, I am sorry to hear this. it must be absolutely terrible for you to feel so bad all the time. Don't worry about us here at Mylot. We know and understand that your health has to come first. Only post when and if you feel up to it, otherwise you'll end up feeling worse. I'm not sure what your medication is for, but it sounds pretty drastic to do things like its doing to you. I'm glad that the Doctor has seen fit enough to start reducing your dosage. Hopefully you'll feel well enough to come back and join us mylotters again soon. In the meantime, take care.

Try to take a lot of rest linda, you shouldn't think too much about others now that you aren't feeling well. Knowing that you're gonna be okay will make your friends be assured that you're going to be back in a few days time so please don't worry. Just follow what the doctor tell's you.

geez Linda, I am sorry to hear you have not been feeling very good. That is horrible. It amazes me when you take a medication, that the side affects sometimes are worse then the actual problem you are taking the medication for. I certainly hope that they are able to adjust it where it helps you, but doesn't cause any side effects. Hang in there, your friends are here for you.

I hope you feel better soon. It is awful when one is sick and can't do anything.
