Sponsor me in the 2005 MS Walk! Why? Read here.
It�s been several days, I know.
Somehow, I just haven�t quite made it here. Too many other things going on.
As Meg begins her journey medication-free, I sit and type this while my first 50 mg. of Zoloft works its way into my system.
I stood in the hall at the ironing board this morning, staring down at the little blue pill. So small. It doesn�t seem nearly substantial enough to make me feel better.
Of course, so far, the only thing I feel is extraordinarily nauseous. Oh, and that nausea is accompanied by a nasty bout of diarrhea and chills. My doctor, whom I called a short time ago, says that there�s little likelihood that my present stomach flu-like symptoms are caused by the medication. I sincerely hope he�s right. This is not an improvement over the depression.
I feel like I should be home in bed, actually. My logical mind says, �No�you must stay at work! You have too much to do!� My logical mind doesn�t seem to have any response when I point out that it�s now Noon and I�ve accomplished exactly 20 minutes worth of work since 7:30 this morning.
Lots to say. No attention span to say it with.
Nice of Wendy to supply me with an excuse--I mean, a reason�for my lack of concentration and my inability to complete a task, as well as for my exhaustion and lack of desire to leave the house.
Truly, though, I just feel icky. Like I want to curl up in a little ball in my bed.
I�d type more, but the nausea is reappearing, and I�m afraid I�ll throw up on my keyboard.
Anyone out there a Zoloft user? Is this my medication? Anyone?
