I did let the endo's assistant know that I was having an adverse reaction, and she called back and told us, "He says you should stop taking it." That was it, no other answers to any other questions, no other suggestions. I just saw my therapist and she told me I need to disregard the endo, and to definitely disregard what he told me about stopping my pain meds. She told me if I am barely getting by in this much pain, why would I stop? I was a little surprised though when I told her I was suicidal, she told me we need to set up some kind of structure to my days. That seems like a good long term solution, but I'm in crisis. It was only our 3rd session so she doesn't know me well, but I think if someone told me they were suicidal, I might want to set up something with them, make sure they know they can call me, I don't know. Does anyone have any doctors or therapists who care anymore? She told me she thinks I should send my baby to daycare, but I can't because of money. She told me to think of things I enjoy and do one every day. I told her I usually enjoy a good funny show when I'm down, but I've been so down, I can't concentrate, and I can't sleep, and I just want to stop thinking about hurting myself. She told me, well, you don't want to end up in the hospital, right? That's no fun either.
