I saw my pdoc today....She wanted to further talk about my routine and showering like ocd stuff. She asked me about my memory, I told her it was terrible. , she asked me about nursing school, I told her it was really hard for me that I didnot know how I passed state boards etc.. I told her that I felt stupid. I told her I felt like I had a learning disability...she felt like I had ADD. She wanted to test me, possibly put me on add meds...I just got real anxious and said that I function as best as I can, always try to put up a good front for her. But that I was not that high functioning that I was getting by.
in the end I told her that I did not want to do the testing. That I would rather not know. She said most people want to know, she left it open if I ever wanted to do the testing.
I didnot tell her that I was not seeing mitzy anymore, she did not ask.
She doesn't know that I have been drinking alot.
though I know she would not like it at all.
Think I will work on cutting down my drinking on july 1st as well as dieting they kind of go hand in hand, I drink really fattening beer.
good nite all.

Bizi,

I took 10 mgs of Ritalin for three years when I was on Wellbutrin. I loved it. It cleared up brain fog.

What kind of testing would be involved?

M

hi why won't you take it again?

Ritalin
 

Hi, Bizi,

This was in the 1990s.
I stopped it because of the huge hassle the government regulations made me go through with the handwritten, hard copy script that had to be dropped off within 48 hours of the date on the script.

I hope that nowadays the rules for Ritalin make more sense.

M.

Maybe you could try it again?
I am afraid of it.

Perhaps the first day or two I took it I had a slight headache but I really do not remember. I do remember that it worked very well.

Why Most Doctors Don't Recognize Adrenal Fatigue
 

Great info here. Maybe some of you have wondered why doctors don't recognize adrenal fatigue? Because they are only trained to look for either extreme adrenal underproduction of cortisol (Addison's Disease) or exteme overproduction (Cushing's Syndrome). Adrenal fatigue is in between the two extremes so it is not often recognized.
