Yes I have taken Wellbutrin and others before and had good results, so I expect that this will help in the long term, that is what we were replacing with paxil, the wellbutrin. :)

Sorry your notice had the wrong time on it for tha funeral, that had to have been frustrating. :(

Hi Pam,

OK, then, so Paxil is your friend :) We wait with you while it kicks in.

Hey, I'm ok about missing the most of the funeral. The music would have been too much for me to handle. As it is, I am spending the rest of the day recovering.

I hope you feel better soon Mari, it's hard to recover from being out in a crowd sometimes, it takes me a few hours to relax and recover from these shopping trips with Mom. I know she's the same way only it's pain she needs to recover from. It just stinks sometimes how trying it can be to go out in public doesn't it? :(

Okay its saturday night, and I am not a happy camper. I just don't get
what is up.

I took it easy yesterday. I stayed away from the presenter I really wanted
to see. So that I could do this training today that I really needed to
do a good job at. Well I knew from the beginning I was in trouble.

Last night wasn't going good. But I went to bed in good time. GOt a good
nights sleep. Got up left at a early enough time, to meet my co-presenter
this morning. She was doing most of the presenting.

Made sure what I was supposed to have was in the car last night. Then got lost when going to her house this morning. Just couldn't locate the right
drive. Ugh.

Then we got to the church. And it all started I started having issues
with my dizziness, but it got better and I thought, okay I'll make sure I drink
plenty of water. And they had plenty of other stuff that was healthy so
I could drink that too.

And they had lunch for us. And my part wasn't till after lunch. But then
I got way to dizzy and started having problems, that I went away.

But then for some reason it got really bad, I ended up, having problems, with the power point and the screens and I've got to figure out if its all connected to my old problem or my new one now.

So know I've embarrassed myself in a crowd, I had to leave the group.
And it didn't look like I was going to make it without passing out.

I'm really getting scared and I don't have a clue what to do.

I need some answers, but how to go about geting thiem

No way, but it took about a hour and I return to a good way.

But it was a while and it was back and forth. ANd I always
now to pull over if I get bad again.

BUt I need to stop this. I'm done venting.

Mari - thanks for doing the weekend check in! I was really busy this week, going here and there with my cousin.

I miss her so much already. I just live too far away from everyone, friends, family on the East Coast, hope to move to Florida where I will be closer.

Since everyone lives in the Northeast.

Dear Donna,

The symptoms you describe sound confusing.
I hope that you get things settled. People are usually forgiving about technical difficulties for a presentation. Even though you felt embarrassed, you had nothing to be embarrassed about.

But feeling like you are going to pass out and all that is weird.
Have the docs giving you any coping mechanisms or anything to do when that feeling and the other physical ones you describe come up?

mari

Just to take deep breaths, or to remember to breath.

This one is from my physical therapist assistant. But it doesn't work
when I'm this far gone, and I am already breathing so its hard to do
this.

I just need some answers.

Donna

Dear Donna,
I jsut caught up with this thread....
I am so sorry that you are still having these issues.
Are you keeping a journal so that you can keep track of the frequency and duration of the events. and also to see if anything helps to rid you of these symptoms.
If sounds so frustrating for you and I am sorry for this.
Wish you had some better explanations...
anyone ever wonder if this might be MS?
a friend of mine had real wierd symptoms and discovered that is what she had.
hugs to you my friend
((((HUGS))))

Hi, Donna,
How about b12? I know...dumb question. The drs probably already checked all those things but it sounds like they should check it if they have not.
Also, I am guessing that you had thryoid and such checked.

At any rate, I can see how this is frustrating and worrisome.

Mari
