Julia is. I struggle to explain my fibro to many of you who ask, and she captures it. We’ve not always shared the same treatment journey (not really treating, but coping), but right now…
Oddly enough, this week I’m supposed to be detoxing on Elavil for similar reasons, but I decided after today’s unrelenting headache it just isn’t worth it. Last week, I was the ice’s bitch three times in the same day and visited a new rheumatologist who is bat-shit crazy. That’s enough for me. I’ll try again next week.
[ETA: I'm not saying in any way my pain is as severe or lasting as she's experienced. Just that I'm trying to get off a drug that I've been on for a decade, that's all.]
Good luck. Getting off of any drug that has an effect on brain functioning is challenging at best. Thank you for the link. It was well said.
