I'm really sick...

I have some kind of stupid virus...fever, chills, achy, upset stomach, headache...weak too...

:(

Just talked to pdoc...we're going to increase my Lamictal to 250 mgs to see if we can get some of this depression under more control. She said being off Prozac for two weeks, it could get worse as the Prozac won't be fully out of my system for another week...lovely. But that she agrees with my not taking it...and hopefully the Lamictal will control it. If not, we'll go back to Prozac, but that's not an option I want to consider at this point.

I have a lot of stressors going on right now that are causing much of my depression. My physical pain being a major one...and being broke and the holidays...and now being really sick on top of everything, well, I just want to go to bed and never get out again.

But, since that isn't exactly an option either, I will go home from work now, take a hot bath and get warm (I hate the chills you get with a fever) take something to help me sleep and get some rest. Hopefully I will feel better tomorrow. If I don't, I'm not coming to work. I am going to stay home, in bed.

I've been off sick a lot lately, but so what. I'm sick.

Anyway, just wanted to update you all on what's going on with me.

Hi Kelli- I hope you feel better real soon. Just go home and take care of yourself. I hope the Lamictal works for you. I have been on Lamictal for awhile now with some success. Take Care, Jena
