Oh, fantastic
Jun. 26th, 2008 07:42 pmSo I had my quarterly medcheck today, and my doctor sat there listening to me with an unusually perturbed look on her face, and by the end of the hour, we were discussing changing my medication levels. Um. So. That's going to be interesting. Y'all longtimers may remember when we adjusted my medication something like two years ago, and ( if you skip this entirely, I will not blame you )
So... I'm telling you now, I guess, that this may end up being a... difficult? delicate? sketchy?... time for me, these next few months. I'm generally pretty good at pulling myself together for an audience--family, friends, social gatherings, y'all--so you may not notice much. And like I said a long, long time ago, I'm not the kind of blogger who's going to put you through the awkward experience of watching someone beg for validation in real time if I have a really bad day (zomg you guys I am totes going to kill myself if you don't tell me how wonderful I am!!1!). And you know, this medication adjustment may end up being fabulous and this entry much ado about nothing, I don't know. I just spent so much time writing about it in 2006, and people with similar problems seemed to find sharing helpful, that I'm going to be doing it again. Always behind easily skippable LJ-cuts, of course.
That said... uh, I kind of have a headache. So... who knows, if I can't sleep tonight I might do the linkspam. Otherwise, it'll have to wait for tomorrow. I am going to see Wanted (I honestly can't say whether or not I'll do a 15M. I have seriously given up trying to plan these things; they just happen) tomorrow night, so that'll be good for getting out of the house. Tonight I'm reading The Great Gatsby, because somehow we never had to read that in high school, and I just found out that it's Sister Girl's favorite book. Seriously, she's my sister and I didn't even know she'd ever read that, much less that it was her favorite (I found this out during an anguished phone call in which she ennumerated the differences between the Fitzgerald short story "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" and the movie trailer FRAME BY FRAME), so... I'm making up for lost time. Which is probably for the best, as I'm far more likely to enjoy reading it on my own. I'm right up to the part where Jordan Baker tells Nick what the deal with Gatsby is, so I'm going to curl up and finish that now, I guess.
