Hey Elaine,
sorry you had a crappy night. You should follow doc's advice on dosing with the scary med. Just do it-- you're strong enough, and if you don't follow doc's advice you may always wonder what could have happened.Your specialist sounds like he's gone for Thanksgiving. maybe he's got relatives to visit or something. If only our symptoms would go on holiday when our doctors do! lol
I'm glad to hear that your "T" has not been giving you too much grief about missing appts. I'm sure you miss having human company. That's so natural, especially when you're feeling poorly. I know it's a poor substitute for conversation, but if you can manage it, maybe you can go to your favorite cafe, and bring a book to read, and order a tea or something, and just sit with PEOPLE!
Maybe you'll overhear a funny conversation, or maybe a nice person will strike up a chat with you. And if you still feel crappy, at least you tried, right? I bet you could even make a routine out of this- leave the house sometime before noon and sit in the cafe sipping (or ignoring) your cup of tea while you read, or type on your computer or just gaze off into space...
This is my favorite "get out of the HOUSE!" activity. cheap, comfy, easy.
well, take care, and enjoy the view from whereever you are :)
hope you get some sunshine today
-Li
