I hope you have a wonderful BBQ today Bizi! The food sounds fantastic!!!
It was 86 here yesterday. We barely got a Spring either, but I'm willing to bet you are getting a great deal more humidity than we are right now. Stay cool and have a fabulous day! |

Well I met with my pdoc today.....
Dr.O is going to hook me up with a substance abuse counselor. She is with the center called victory and they utilize a 12 step program which I do not want to use and pdoc knows that. sigh Also, she too is cutting out my klonipin. She said it is just not right her prescribing it since I drink. I am at .5mg at night but wants me to go to .25mg at night for 3 weeks then discontinue that. I think that is too quick. I have enough to taper it slower than that. Like 1/2 and 1/4 pill=.375mg x2 weeks then .25mg x 2 weeks then .125mg x 2 weeks then discontinue. That is 6 weeks, not 3. She wants me to start taking the regular melatonin one hour before bed time(let it dissolve in my mouth first then swallow) then take the long acting one right at bedtime. She thinks the zyprexa should make me sleepy enough. I am nervous about this. I have been on klonipin for almost 2 decades! and regular melatonin never helped me before. I guess I have to at least try. Jeff is gone until saturday. On a different note: I accidentally met up with a "meet up" group of women who let me join them while I was at fat pats. It is a social group that go out to dinner/a meal twice a month. There were 10 of us and they were very nice and friendly. Some were drinking beer others just drank water. And the woman right across from me was eating her burger with out the bun. I asked her if she was doing a low carb diet and she was. So maybe I could join these ladies and do something different. Hey I might even make a friend! The organizer of the group helped me get the app on my phone...I would have never been able to do that so I thanked her. Her name is Nina. I met a jennifer and a molly. Don't know the rest of the gals names. Nina seemed to be the oldest in the group. Will see how that goes. bizi who is doing a load of scrubs and it is beeping at me...it is done drying!

I'm sorry that Dr. O is forcing you off your Klonopin. Since you have enough pills, doing the taper your way makes sense to me. I want you to be as comfortable as possible
Melatonin never worked for me either, and I've tried more than once. Have you tried Trazodone? Just an idea. Never worked for me either tho I know you don't like 12-step programs. Why are you agreeing to see the councilor? I'm glad that you met those women! I hope that things work out and you can meet up with them again soon! With 10 ladies in the group, the odds are good that you will get along really well with at least one of them! |
