Liz,
Hey girl - so I see that you dont have to cook tomorrow either. Thats a first for me in awhile - hurrayyyy!!! (Really, I usually enjoy the cooking - then everyone else has to clean LOL).
Hows everything else? I know we posted the other day, but I still have alot of catching up to do. Are you using anything? I read about the Cymbalta and yes, I have been taking them at night after dinner. Thats the only pill I take at night so I have forgotton a few times ( I know, I know, we would NEVER forget our pain meds!!) But, I just wanted to let you know that I had the same reaction as you (BAD headache).
Now, I'm facing the same problem as I read some are. They are soooo darn expensive and since I am currently on Medicaid (Govt pays), I still have a full bottle of Cymbalta, but after that, I do beleive the State will not cover it anymore. It is unbelievable. They did the same with my son (Tony has ADHD). He was doing absolutely wonderful on the Strattera, then BANG - its not covered anymore. If you think Cymbalta is $$$$ Strattera is MORE.
I dont like him being on those stimulant drugs, So, working together with the teacher, counselor and working overtime at home with him, he is doing really good with NOOOOO pills and I am thrilled. I never planned on keeping him on anything for much longer anyhow, so it may have been a blessing in disguise.
This morning, Amanda (15), Tony (10) and myself, helped put together meals (really complete dinners @$50.00 each) and several people went around to certain places to deliver to the less fortunate. I may not be rolling in the dough, but I really wanted my children to see how some people have to live. I think that Tony really appreciates his Nintendos, Playstations, Sega's, etc. a heck of alot more when he saw that. It made me feel so good and so thankful for what I have as well.
Boy, sorry this got so long Liz. I wish you and yours a Happy Thanksgiving.
Love you,
Marie
Hi Marie,
I think that is an awesome idea what you are doing with the kids. My kids are with their Dad today at the Macy's Parade. Personally, I rather watch it on television. It's cold out there and it's too crowded at the parade. Of course without the kids I won't be watching it at all. lol. Nope, no cooking today. But, I will have to make a dinner when my kids get back here in two weeks. They love my stuffing and asked if I can still make them a dinner, which is something I always did the years they were with their Dad.
Cymbalta works good for me too when I don't miss doses. Unfortunately I didn't have any yesterday and won't have any until Tuesday. So far I've haven't gotten a headache. I hope you have a Happy Thanksgiving, since you're not cooking I'm sure you will. lol
Love,
Liz
