What a day...I am soo keyed up right now, prob because I have been on the go since this morning....let me share my day:
Got up, went to do some shopping for the deli and then went to work. Where we got SLAMMED for lunch (which is good) and about 2 while I am cleaning up we get a phone for a catering tomorrow. 22 people. I have my pdoc appt at 3:30 so I am thinking "ok, I can handle this" 25 thousand messes later, (but real pretty food) I am heading off to the doc. I have a therapy appt at 4 which is in the same office, so I have my book and I wait. and I wait. and I wait some more. well, it is now 4 and my therapist is wandering the halls looking for me. Since no one is around while I am waiting for the dr, we decide to have my session in the hallway. 1 hr and 15 after my appt that was set at 3:30, The doc comes out. I say goodbye to my therapist and go in to the doc. He asks me how I am doing and all that stuff.....I tell him, and he says exactly what I was thinking. The prozac is causing my panic. Well, I have tried all the SSRI's and none of them work, so we started talking about what was left. I mentioned that I have restless leg syndrome and that some research I found is saying that it is caused by a dopamine problem. Well he told me that he has had some good results giving scrips for the new RLS drug Requip for depression and ADD. So I am now on a trial (1 week) of Requip. At the least hopefully I will be able to sleep without all the leg twitching. Oh happy day. So I go home for an hour to scarf down some food and smooch Jamie before leaving again for school. I have some bad news. Apprently the FDA is trying to ban the free samples that drs give away to patients, because the drs abuse them. This is not good. My teacher informed us of this and it started this 2 hour dicussion on the american health care system. So we really didnt get alot of learning done. More of a bitchfest. But whatever. Its over and I am home and watching mindless tv...off to walmart in the morning to fill my script (its the cheapest price I have found for meds) even though every time I go in there I feel that my soul is being sucked out of me...but hey, I am on a budget. Wish me luck :-)
