Mom has been in a lot of pain. There isn't anything I can do to take it away so of course that upsets me. I had to use a make shift wheelchair to get her into her bedroom with her legs up! Of course when she is in that much pain movement makes it even more painful!!! I don't want to cause her more pain, but of course I did!!! One of her little helpers came today and was able to help her with the pain!!! Thank goodness!!!
Along with mom having so much pain, I had the brilliant idea of bringing down my dosage of my migraine medicine because it made me feel like I was in a fog!!! My doctor warned me not to taper off to fast or I will cause myself to have headache storms! I though I was tapering off slowly... My storm of headaches contradict my idea of slow!! Lol I guess I am not that patient of a person!!! I was on 50 mg and after one week I was on 40 mg and the second week went to 30 mg!!! Oops!!! I went back up to 40 mg... sigh.... It didn't work!!! I am now back up to 50 mg. I still hate the brain fog that I feel accompanies the higher dosage, soooo.... Since my idea of changing my dosage of meds seems to work so well I decided to change my dosage on one of my other meds!!! (And of all meds one of my anxiety meds!!! HAHAHA!!! Idiot be my name!!!) LOL As you can expect that didn't turn out quite like I planned!!! Then a HORRIFYING ah ha moment hit!!!! I have turned into my mother!!! I have always gotten mad at her for messing around with her meds!!! Her doctor has asked her when she got when medical degree!!! I am no longer going to be like my mother and I am back on all meds per doctor's orders. It is going to take a while to get everything back to the results that I need!!! Lol and will taper off exactly how the doctor orders!!!!
