Thanks for your encouragement, BarbaraCat. It does indeed help to hear someone understands what I'm going through. My pdoc put me on Depakote (started today), so now all I can do is wait and see. I'm hopeful -- something has to help!
I'm interested in the fact that you seem to metabolize better intravenously. I take plenty of vitamins, because I'm vegetarian, so I hope I'm getting everything I need. My pdoc is going to have me get regular blood testing since Depakote can cause liver problems, so I'll have to monitor the other stuff too.
Thanks again, and good luck. It must be nice just having even a few days of feeling normal. I hope taking plenty of the extra vitamins will help as much as the IV.
