she told me that she has a lot of samples which she could give me. Thank God I haven't taken it. I have two big black and blues on my leg and I didn't bump into anything. Because I am a worrier and tend to think negatively if I had taken it I might have assumed it was from the medication and would have gone to the emergency room. I decided after thinking about it all night and getting two hours of sleep I will tell her the truth and say I didn't take it because I do bruise easily and would be scared stiff. also it is for mania which I don't have, just depression and anxiety which is really high now and interfering with the antidepressant. I am now depressed and anxious and so tired.
also she immediately cut my klonipin to 1 1/2 mg from 2 mg in the morning and 2 mg at night |

Bruising is only a possible] side effect of Equetro, and it's rare. I do not know that being on a blood thinner would increase your risk of bruising while on this med, but I can understand your concern. It's something you should discuss with your pdoc, but only if you are still considering taking it
The list of side effects you see online are only possible side effects. I like to go to drugs.com to view the side effects of medications so that I can see if the incidence of them are very common, common, rare, or incidence unknown (outside clinical studies, and maybe unrelated to the medication). I'm always most interested in the very common and common ones when I start taking a med, but I always read the whole list. If I refused to take my meds because of all of the rare potentially severe side effects, I would be on no meds at all because they all have them, but there are things that exclude meds for me such as they may cause mania or effect kidney function (because of kidney disease). You seem very anxious about your meds, so I would call your pdoc on Tuesday to straighten things out, and maybe ask for Topamax? I think you will feel better afterwards (((HUGS))) |

thank you. I will wait for my next appt in two wednesdays. I have asked her about topamax but I think she wanted me to try the other things. As i wrote I am a very anxious person who thinks the worse. You are such a stronger person than me. God bless you.
I feel okay now. just spent over an hour on the phone with suri in Israel. she just took another test last week and it didn't come out worse thank God. She is working on qi gong which she was learning in china. It sounds great. |

Cecilia took me out for my birthday last night. It was great. My youngest nephew called me yesterday for my birthday. I had sent him pictures that Stella took which showed me laughing and smiling-so rare. I was on the phone with Suri and got the voice message. I am looking for low calorie treats for Abby. She has gained some weight from I think all the treats I have given her. she likes to jump up on the high cabinets and leap from one to another to another. I am afraid the extra weight will interfere with her fun.
Last night I took an aleve pm and it really helped me fall asleep. I wonder if it will work tonight I feel really sad for Cecilia. Yesterday was the first day she started using her new prosthesis for her throat. She has been having trouble breathing so she has to stretch the hole with the next size. She said it is so painful to put it in. |
