Sorry late gettin' back to thread. It's nearly mid afternoon Fri.
Got some rest and awakened yesterday to begin knocking off 'a totally too long errand list' at sunrise. Got home late. More errands to do … and, now!
Can't be sure fatigue was from tolerance to Provi*il, absence of B12 (I was 7-10days past shot due date.), increase of Abili*y from 5mg to 7.5mg, possible sinus infection, or a cumulitive thing re: poor diet and ‘man’ problems. As well, I’d recently begun folate and folic acid (need research). Had a wee bit of a cough so PCP gave me a 5,4,3,2,1 prednisone and Levaquin (Antibiotic not to be taken w/ calcium or iron!) in case possible sinus infection. Picking up samples Pr*vigil today, soon, b4 too late.
Seems I develop a tolerance to all meds quite easily. Can't think of a thing I've not needed to increase and increase. Would like to understand why this is w/ me and my metabolism. Fortunately, I do see that I can stay at a plateau level on some meds.
I'm at 115lbs now, and was about 120lbs when began Provigil. I’d ended 13-yr relationship at same time, so again unsure. For most of my adult life, 30 yrs, I've been at a very comfortable 112lbs. The in-activity of current living surroundings (last 2yrs now) robbed me of this stable weight and I’d been at 122-123lbs since here.
W/ still grieving father, just ending 13yr relationship w/ sig-other, and an ex-husband enjoying throwing mind-boggling sh*t at me, I can’t be sure it is the meds, supplements, or diet alone. Seems prob' a little bit of eachFlorence, .. I'm sorry to not respond sooner. It's a thing most peeps here know about me. I don't have a lot of self-discipline. (I'm trying to keep using this word so will 'build up' the quality, as know I had it at one time. I used it earlier to post.) Whoops .. there I went again .. right off the track. I'm wondering, Florence, what 'else' you were taking alongside Provigil, which I'm understanding (I think.) you have totally dc’d, if you would care to share please.
Anyway, got a lot done and this is good. No real snags all day; just a little anxiousness at being overloaded somewhat w/ errands.
Oh, but, throwing me a bit further off the 'what is going on with me' search, a man 'whose pretend name I'll not mention' offered me a black negligee, choc covered strawberries, and $50, to sleep w/ him. This is doing a world of terror for my self-esteem!
I told you guys men really mess w/ me! Do they not realize how very extremely hurtful it is to indicate to a woman their attraction is merely their body? Or, am I 'totally' not realistic?!
Oh, and, re: sig-other, heard news he’s not doing well at all. My heart aches for him.
I filled little burner w/ water and a lot of drops of essential patchouli to get myself ‘grounded’ last eve’.
tks all, 5f
