I'm hanging in there, despite medical issues, but I've been battling depression since Dec.
I saw the pdoc last week and told her about the cymbalta and told her I'd had enough of the depression. She added a little zoloft at night- 25mg for 2 weeks, then 50mg.
I'm very leery of antidepressants since they tend to induce mania (and I've had plenty of that) but I'm on 200mg of lamictal and 300mg lithium in the am, 450mg in the pm and the zoloft dose is so small... but I'm still crossing my fingers.

My hip is feeling a little better, so I'm going back and forth on whether or not I'm going through with the MRI.
I'll talk to my PCP about it when I see him on Friday...

It's a follow up. I've been having near fainting spells when I'm standing up... everything starts to fade to black and I have to sit down fast, then lay down. I've missed 3 appointments because of it. The NP I saw just ran some bloodwork (my pdoc got it so I know it was all normal). I have a history with this tho. and think it's probably the same thing. Fortunately I haven't passed out. I drink 3 liters of water a day and eat well.

I saw the neurologist. I don't have to have another MRI until Sept. She's just going to follow me over time (woo-hoo!) She agrees with my decision to stay off any of the MS meds for now. Neither of us is convinced they will work. She says the bowel incontinence happens, usually infrequently. Most of the treatments are invasive and she doesn't think it's needed now. But I have to see a urologist.

So, I think that's about it.

Thank you all for your support! I hope you are all well.
