> KarenB,
> this is fantastic! The headaches could have been a side effect of Adderall that would have gone away after a week or two by itself.I gave that headache THREE WEEKS to go away and for the first time in my life, went to the emergency room on a Saturday night and said, "Ok, give me the Demerol." That was why I started the Inderal, which worked great to keep the migraines away, so I could have the benefits of the Adderall sans headache.
> so just how much of your self-esteem is derived from your size? Regardless of what you answer, I won't be able to help you. I think the politically correct answer should be 0.
Politically correct? The term you meant to use is "dishonest," right? As to your question, the answer would be, "some." I don't feel good when I have extra weight on. And, when you are 5'1", extra weight looks like EXTRA WEIGHT, you know what I mean? If I gain five pounds, I'm in a larger size. I am really small boned. My Scottish grandma still wears a size 2, at 93. I SHOULD be a size two, if I am healthy and not carrying around extra baggage. Being lean and mean is good for just about anyone's self esteem:)

> Now, you must conquer the PMS beast - and she is a tough one Karen!!!!! Keep us informed. JaniceYou mean like cowering and saying "don't hurt me?" That's what I did this month. It's more like PMDD. I was completely incapacitated for three days. I really cannot take this nonsense anymore. It's bad enough trying to adjust and trial the meds without going insane for a few days each month. My GYN will probably put me on hormone therapy next week, when I have my exam. Today, they took a biopsy to rule out any problems. Please pray for normal results.
Thanks for your encouragement:)
