I feel like I've been behind on everything lately. So, a highly belated happy birthday to justsonya and apologies for not making your party on Saturday. I suck.

For whatever reason, I'm bouncing back from the pneumonia slower than I'd like. Still coughing, still tired. I'm guessing a chunk of it has to do with getting my period hardcore this week.

Jess finally saw the Neuro yesterday, and we got Imitrex injectable and Topramax, and Naproxyn, and steroids.

Turns out? She's allergic to the injection. Hived up, had her wheezing. Thought we were going to the ER for sure. But three Benadryl and the inhaler settled it down. But all in all, it sucked.

Also, the Daeva is still trying to claw free of my uterus. With the added bonus of no anti-inflammatories. Just Tylenol.
Joy.

But it's okay. Because i'm off tomorrow. And Wincon is in seven months, and we're going to LA, baby!

I love you no matter what! *kisses*

I just want you to feel better. *hugs*

If Jess is taking Topamax, watch the dosage carefully. earthkat and I both had problems with it, and they think it might be why I'm now on ADD meds.

There are other injectibles besides Imitrex. The neurologist should be able to call them in. *HUGS* There are also a ton of oral meds to try as well. Maxalt is a really good one for most people.

Ouch, I had horrid asthma problems with Topomax.
Maxalt can have heart side-effects after more than a year of steady use; after 18 months I got traded up to Relpax.
Inhaled stadol is good, it tastes disgusting (I mean really really disgusting), but it usually works.

Ew. We'll have to keep an eye on all of it. *sigh* the joys of medicine side effects.

*hug* I swear, we've both been in a fog for the last couple weeks.

We're going to try the Topamax over the weekend, so we can see how it affects her.

*crosses fingers* Hopefully we'll find something!
