So, I started my new med tonight... we'll see how it works. I am slowly getting of Lexapro over the next 15 days... no withdrawl happening again. So, for 15 days I am on three depression meds. That amuses me. The psych gave me a MONTH's worth of samples that were going to expire May 1st. That was cool, since work comp takes FOREVER to approve a new medication.
I must say, that muscle relaxer and narcotic med work very nicely together. I am taking them at night, to help me sleep (since I put pressure on my back) and because it can make you dizzy and tired. Unfortunately the pain is still there, in moderation, but I am not going to look a gift horse in the mouth.
Has anyone heard of Mangosteen? It isn't a mango, it is another fruit that supposedly has all this crap in it that helps pain. Sounds interesting, but it is sort of ridiculous to spend $100 a month on juice and pills. Can't justify it... especially since a review I read said it was pretty amazing, but basically just a high priced juice. I have better things to do with my lack of money.
Babbling aside, I am going to bed. :)
