I don't have a doctor here yet...

I should call a pharmacy you think?

Yes, Jayne I'll understand if you don't, but I hope you do!

They'll have it ready in 10 minutes!!!

Thanks ears!!! I'll pay for it with a credit card and then when I've submitted proof of prior insurance to my current insurance, they'll rebill it and reimburse me the difference.

She suggested I wait until tomorrow to take it since I usually take it in the morning but I don't think I can wait that long. Maybe it would be better to take it now, and then maybe skip tomorrow and start again the following morning? Kinda like taking a half dose, making this first dose last 1.5 days instead of waiting any longer on the cold turkey? What do you think?

Thanks for helping!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Some people take their ADs in the evening because they do help some people sleep better.

This one wakes me up.

But I went ahead and took it as soon as I got it, the headache was too much to wait.

I took a Tylenol too (one extra strength). I'm trying to drink water and coffee too (in case it's a caffeine headache at all). Is there anything else that might help? This is a huge headache, and I've gotta go get the kids soon. I'm also nauseous and I feel chilled like I have a fever. I'd go lay down but I'm afraid I'd oversleep and be late picking up the kids. I just sent email to H asking him if he could pick them up. I didn't wanna ask him to do me any favors. I'm such a wuss.

Ok guys I'm just gonna purely ramble cus I cant think straight and I know there were questions to answer but I cant think straight but I wanna talk to someone while I wait out this headache. So I'll just ramble for now ok? Until I can think straight again.

Does this make me an addict? I don't wanna be addicted to something.

There was a beautiul sunset. It lasted about as long as it took to type the above, then some dark clouds moved in and the pink went away. Well there's some pink if I look north of west.

So what's the consensus, do I tell H that I have a phone call with Steve Harley on Monday?

I've got so much work to do.

Holy cow once it starts getting dark here, it gets dark fast!!!

Would cookies help get rid of the headache you think? Pecan Sandies and eggnog?

Jayne, thanks for sharing the sunset! I'm SO proud of you getting your meds! I was going to suggest Advil, but Tylenol is great, too, did it kick in yet?

I think you may well want to share wih your H about meeting with Steve Monday, so he can participate if he's interested. He's a powerful motivator, helping you clarify what is REALLY important to you, so if your H participates, that would be so amazing. Can you imagine, NO MORE AOs in the 641 house!

I vote for the eggnog, wish I had some now myself!

I don't know Jayne,
Ears and I often seem to be coming from completly different places. To be honest, I would wait until I had talked to Steve at least once because he actually knows and understands what may be happening and could advise the best way to broach the subject with Your H.
Especially since it seems that for whatever reason, the way topics are bought up enevitably lead to an AO.

I like your suggestion for the BC acronym.

I have been wondering for a few weeks if I should be posting in ENs rather than recovery, but then I read your thread, and occasionally Ears and Cats and I think that maybe it's not so bad for me.

I dont want to T/J so just quickly; I did bring up the subject, well at least I told him we needed to come to a POJA on it because at the moment I feel I am paying all the bills and he is asset building in his name only. He pointed out that when we were in the store today he paid for my shorts with his own purchases. Topic hasnt been broached since, and I don't know how to without it being considered nagging.

Hope your headache is getting better. As far as all the domestic stuff, I think you need to sleep more myself Then concentrate on work stuff and kids stuff, then house work.

{{{{{ Lil }}}}}

Hi Lil!!! Wow, you seriously brought tears to my eyes with what you wrote on your thread. Thanks so very much, hon. I feel a little embarrassed now, after all, the worst thing that's happening to me is severe frustration. There's so many others here who have much bigger struggles. I'm sorry if I'm having my own pity party over here.

Even though the ADs usually wake me up, I fell asleep this evening while putting the kids to sleep. I think it was just so nice to not have a headache that I could finally get some zzz's. I woke up a little, not completely, and watched a bit of tv. I'll go back to sleep here soon. Thanks for your concern. I'm really really touched and flattered and embarrassed. *hugs*

The question about whether or not to tell H about my phone call with Steve, is now moot; tonight he told me he wouldn't be able to be here when they're installing the carpet because he has meetings on Monday starting at 8 a.m. So he wouldn't be able to join in the phone call anyway. I'll talk to Steve and see what he suggests, about maybe asking him for next time.

(By the way, would you do me a favor? You, um, used H's name... it's a pretty unique name and I'm just afraid it might be TMI... Would you mind editing it out please? Thanks!!!)

TMI taken care of. I saw you had used it a few days ago and thought you had decided to just do it. MAybe you should come up with a name for him. Now think of polite ones Jayne!!!

I don't think your having a pity party at all. You come across as hadling this with great decorum and patience to me. Don't you DARE be embarrased about people being concerned for you. I am not doing it for that reason, I care for and about you. You were my biggest supporter for a long time, it is right I do the same for you.

Glad to hear your headache is gone, maybe you should talk to the chemist about the addictive issues you raised earlier?

I used it??? Really???? I gotta go edit that... I think maybe it was just in an email to you, right? I hope?

Hmmm I gotta reboot. My cat was sleeping on my keyboard and now the computer's automatic read thingy is spelling out all the letters as I type them.

Ack!!! I see what I did... I had cut and pasted something I'd written myself, and I forgot to edit it for public consumption. And now I can['t edit that post! Is there a time limit on how long we can edit our own posts?

Anyway, I notified the mods asking them to change it... Now everyone's gonna go look... Maybe I should stop typing about it, ya think?

Well on the bright side everyone in North America is asleep except me, right? LOL

Ok, what do you think I should call him?

I left him a note for when he wakes up. I washed a load of laundry including his favorite socks which I was wearing today cus they are warm and fuzzy. I left him a note letting him know they are washed, so if he puts them in the dryer he'll be able to wear them to work tomorrow. That's nice isn't it?

sorry, didnt mean to desert you, our local copper came
I think the edit function only works for about 3 days

Umm Mr J for Jayne?
The Canuck?

I'll think on it, I have to go to bed now, gotta get up and milk them cows in the morning.

I think that was a real nice thing to do. I dont really know what else you could do, he seems to 'show his love' by doing 'stuff' for you. I am going to re-read the 5LL book, if I get any insight I'll pass it on.

G'nite and

Thanks lil. Night night, you are still in my prayers.

Yeah I saw the name, too. I'm sorry I didn't think to mention it to you.

hi Jayne,
how are you feeling now?

I did think on names for him, I ahve to admit the only one I have come up with is Jay.
My computer is really really ill, its been dying for months so Flick is trying to transfer all the files to another hard drive so he can reformat this drive. Don't know if it is going to work yet, and as he is away for a couple of days I might be computerless :MrEEk:
