thanks all for the advice, when I go get the meds..I will ask pharmacist about the weaning on gently idea....as I think that is how my first dr who prescribed lyrica had me do...one pill a day for first few days..then two few days then the three...so I will ask if good idea....

hugss all and thanks ever so much, sarah

nae nae, you gotta go with your heart and your mind, if it is good for you...than go for it...we support you if working on the marriage...we support you 100% Just listen not only to your heart but your head too....we love you hugsssssss

hugs to all, sarah

Renee ... me too - second, third, fourth motion etc on what everyone said on what you decide .. you have to live with you ... and we love ya for being YOU!!

That was one of the conditions actually....that I have my own account and he will put money in it every 2 weeks.

lol !!

Thelma and Louise were my first ducklings...

and now we're working on great grandchildren.

don't worry about all that poop, it's VALUABLE stuff around here, dear !!

we use chicken-wire to make circle-bins dotted around the farm, and put all the used bedding hay and raked leaves, and animal poop in there, for making compost.

despite what people think, jungle soil is NOT very fertile for farming, most of the nutrients for growing plants come from what's fallen off the growing stuff, so we're building our own soil for the garden, basically from scratch.

Renee, you know I support your decision whether I like it or not. I pray he stays in therapy and that he doesn't use you or the children as an excuse anymore and that he stays true to your marriage. I hope this new therapy and counselling helps him and that you can accept everything that has happened. Just promise you will stay cautious and aware as I am sure you will. I wanted to say that last night but your momma stopped our call. Did you get grounded? lmao

PS: I thought much about how your mom is acting and I think it's terrible how she is treating Olivia. I wonder if she's being that way because of your hubby? Do you think her anger toward him is causing her to indirectly take it out on you and Olivia? Does she know your plans to go back to him?

Well I will catch up with all the news later. DD leaves for Mexico tomorrow so I am spending as much time with her today as I can. We did a bit of last minute shopping this morning and now we are going to watch a movie. There is more to say but she is waiting on me.

got the meds...I thought it was 100mg three times a day....but it is 300 mg three times a day....I may build up...the pharmasist said I shouldnt have a problem just taking the full dose, but that if concerned with side effects...I could do the one a day for two days, etc....

so Unsure which way I will go, I took one...and we will see....

thanks again all

I also bought some B12...subligiual liquid kind....thought wouldnt hurt, read so much about that for nerve health....

hugss all, might go take a cat nap with hubby before he leaves for work..hugss,sarah

LOL Kay ... I meant to say 'PATROL' ... not control ... call it an "MS Moment"!!

Hi everyone! For everyone that is feeling tired (fatigue), I am also feeling like I have been running a marathon.

Wow, Alot has gone on here since I last looked (last night). I think I overdid it yesterday (was at school for almost 7 hours) and then I went to the pool for an hour. Today, all I want to do is lay on my sofa. I did go to W.W. and I lost 1.2 pounds this week. So my total is 6.6.

Sarah -- I posted on your thread about neurontin and slowly increasing your dose.

Sandy -- I am so sorry that you are having these problems with doctors. I know you were so hopeful when you first saw the latest. Rush hospital is supposed to be great. So I am praying that this new doctor can help Jim.

Renee --I was thinking the same thing about how your mother has been treating Oliiva (Sandy's post). But how horrible to take her anger out on Olivia. She looks adorable! And all two years have trantums. That is why they call it the terrible two's, right? My niece told my brother in law the other day, "Don't shush me daddy." They were in the state capitol building and she was yelling because she like the sound of echoes.

Sarah, I've wondered if the reason my doc had me do the "step up" with the med was because I do get some of the craziest reactions sometimes. He generally gives me only one new drug at a time due to this, even though he's dying to put me on more - LOL. Do whichever you feel the most comfortable with.

Renee, no matter what, I'll support your decision in this. I understand where you're coming from. Take care of yourself and the kids, and I hope things work out.

Save me a piece of the princess cake! On second thought, just grab a pic of it if you can. Hope Olivia has a great b-day.

Weave, hoping your having a good time with DD today.

Got some yardwork done. A little disappointed I couldn't do a full blast, but at least it looks a lot better than it did. Gotta dwell on the positives.

Had to quit for the day. Getting some muscle fatigue, and that's never a good thing. Believe it or not, I'm slowly learning to listen to the bod, LOL.
