In reply to Fabulous, I hope they forward your mail!, posted by Susan47 on June 7, 2005, at 23:10:13
Doesn't matter whether they do forward the snail mail or NOT... I already read the wonderful things here!
Thanks!
I'll have to make a phone call to my pdoc or case worker today, though... the risperdal is now actually keeping me UP all night instead of stopping the racing thoughts so that I can sleep. My thoughts AREN'T racing, but I never quite fell completely asleep...
The first two nights on it, I slept fine (although I was also still coming off of sedation!), the third night it took at least an hour to fall asleep, the fourth night it took about three hours to fall asleep, and then last night I didn't sleep at all.
I DID tell the "nurse" at the desk to ask my pdoc there to contact me regarding the risperdal, but that was yesterday and it just got forgotten I guess (by all of us) because they sent me home...
But I am determined to advocate for myself... It is 8:41 now... at 9 they start their first meetings of the day, so the front desk staff should be less busy. I will call and leave a message for my pdoc and/or caseworker to call my cell as soon as possible so that I can ask if I can go OFF the Risperdal...
My appt for the "outpatient" pdoc isn't until next Tuesday, and I am unwilling to get sleep deprived again!
Okay, enough complaining... just tired this morning...
Hugs to all,
