Mostly at myself. At this crazy bipolar roller coaster, and at it’s best friend crazy meds roller coaster.
I’m feeling somewhat better today with the Lamictal than yesterday. That means I’m only sort of drunk feeling, queasy, tired, can’t balance, and now am smelling non-existant pennies that I can’t get rid of. This is better? heeeeeehehehe Too funny! Considering yesterday, yeah it is. So I’m feeling positive that all this will pass.
As folks commented on my post from last night, it’s time to just hang in there. I do know how my brain works — the worse the initial effects are, the better it ends up working for me in the long run with the fewest side-effects. Yeah, weird brain, but after so many tries with meds over the years, I know this is so. So I’m willing to hang in there with the nausea and penny smells and so on. I originally gave it 3 days to start getting better or I’d have to call the doc and change something. It’s already improving some, so no call to the doc. I’ll just wait and see how it goes.
In the meanwhile, I’ll have a few chortles at the idea that today’s weird stuff is an improvement over something. heeeehehehe Gotta love that!

Med changes can be the worst. Hang in there, it soon will pass, though I know it’s hard to imagine sometimes when you’re right in the middle of it.
Bradleys last blog post..Time for a Do-Over
Thanks Bradley. It’ll pass, I do know that. It’s just funny along the way.
I’m very happy to hear you are feeling a bit better
Hopefully the yucky side effects will pass. Remember to keep us all updated !

So glad you’re feeling better, its always rough either going up or adding new meds to the list. Hang in there…hugs
Ohhh your site is a firefox friendly site only lol, I only have IE at work.
Girlblues last blog post..My arm hurts worse than my pride
Thanks GB
Ahhhhhh I get the comments problem now… Yeah, I am allergic to IE, so I never even check it with IE. LOL Firefox, Chrome, Mozilla, they all work. I may have to pick your brain at work as to what’s whacked with the IE there. LOL
Meds can be horrible sometimes, I agree. But, I agree MORE with having to laugh sometimes!!! Laughter IS the best medicine!!
So, you smell pennies? I’m trying to think of something clever to say about you smelling like money, but nothing is coming to me. I’m only witty sometimes!!
P.J.s last blog post..Four Thoughts
LOL PJ! Smelling like money is definitely not me. Smelling things that aren’t there can be a side effect of anti-convulsants, I read somewhere today, and guess what Lamictal is… yup, one of them thangs. And none of us can be witty all the time.
