Hi to all! I've missed you...I am at the library this morning, while I'm out running errands, paying bills, etc. I finally got to come home yesterday afternoon, after a huge scare that I wouldn't be able to because of lithium levels. But my levels are always in the lower range of normal...anyway...I'm home. I won't go into any details, but it was SO boring and plain all around yucky that I would NOT have stayed another day regardless. I'm still feeling all displaced feeling today. I hate it.
So, I don't know if I'm a lot better, or a little better, or not much better, but here are my meds...back on Lithium 900 mgs...Wellbutrin 150 mgs...Cytomel (thyroid med, even tho my thyroid is fine, supposedly will help my mood)...Topamax 400 mgs...Ativan 2 mgs...
I have gained back ALL the freaking weight I lost and I'm really mad about that...they watch every stupid bite i put in my mouth...
My body is soooo sore from the dang beds...ugh.
Its just weird how "weird" i feel now...
I was only there 6 days...and this time it felt like 6 months or more...and i can't get used it even now...
So, I asked the pdoc there to confirm my dx...its BP I with ultradian cycling...the hardest to treat...but he said its my fault the meds keep changing...i have to not call my pdoc so much. And I have borderline personality disorder, with ptsd. I knew those were all correct.
I'm supposed to make an appt with a therapist this week. I guess I will.
I suppose I'm better, as far as the cycling goes. I'm not cycling, at least not 10 times a day...I just have to adjust to this SOMETHING once I figure out what it is...weird.
Anyway, love to you all.

(((((((((Keli))))))))) welcome back:) i hope that your weird feeling settles down or you figure out what it is at least so you know how to deal with it.
sorry your i/p was not a good experience. that has to have sucked:( but, on the upside, it sounds like this pdoc got your meds straightened out.......i hope:)
things are crazy with me as usual, but i'm holding my own. at least i haven't hurt anyone yet, so that's a good thing......i guess.
ttys.
love you,
traci

Good to see you are back...I was hoping they let you go yesterday. Nice to know you arent cycling like crazy anymore. I went to pdoc yesterday too and posted about it so I am not gonna go into it. Just glad to see you are still doing okay and I will check back later.
Love you

Keli,
I'm glad you're back and remember what's a few pounds compared to stability!
as for that weird feeling it "must" be normal b/c i felt the same after my last hospitalization which lasted 3 weeks or so.
frail.
disconnected
separate
& just plain ODD!
I remember that's when my mom sat me down to tell me what a screw up i was...& here i felt as if i was coming off a bad flu.
it'll pass.
WB Keli,
I hope that your stay got you on the right track as far as your meds go.
I am not too sure I would be happy with what the doc said about this being your fault. But, I will let that one slide for right now.
Take good care. I missed ya.
Love you,
