When I went in to see my GP for a physical, I was just being a good sport by telling her that my wife said she thought I was depressed ... doc debated about whether she wanted me to start at 20 or 10 mg, and decided on 10 mg ... ...
... .. .. and who could pay attention anyway ? ... ... I was getting a fast heart scan (came out fine) ... ... blood work ... stool specimens ... ... my 2nd colonoscopy ... ....
.. ( all came out fine ... ... no occult blood , no polyps) ...the Point being? .... ... I was distracted ... I didn't take notes ... ... okay
two weeks later (and about six lifetimes of SEs) I go back to check in with my GP ... so I ask her about this wooziness, depersonalization, panic attacks, sleep distrubances, dreams, anorgasmia ...
... she says, "I told there could be side-effects ... "
well, right, but ...
" .... .... and I told they would go away, right?"
well, yeah ... but ...
" ... and they went away, didn't they?"
uh, yeah ... pretty much ... I guess so ...
(end of that story ... back later!)
I have been on lex 4 1/2 months ... on 10mg the last 3 1/2 ... ... last weekend we went to Corpus Christi and Saturday afternoon spent 4 hours at the beach, in the sun the whole time ... ... no sunblock on me ... none ...
(and now back to his story!)
... ... so, I THINK I remember my GP May have warned me to use a sunscreen ... it's all very vague ...now I am by no means what folks would call 'fair', but ....
... despite having not really been in the sun in years ... and not smart enough to take even modest precautions ... remember, Photons Are Carcinogenic ... ... I did not get a sunburn at all ... (!) ... ... and only a little tanned, really, considering the amout of exposure ... ...
And that's my story ... .... with all of my details, hey Wayne? HA!
Everybody
TAKE CARE!!!!!
