Guest guest Posted March 11, 2002 Report Share Posted March 11, 2002 Thanks for the tip Dan. I look up all my meds on www.webmd.com I guess their information doesn't include everything b/c I never saw anything regarding hearing loss. I have the pill book at home. It doesn't list the enbrel or the methodone. I have a PDR (physicians desk reference) book at home but it is at least 15 years old. I will see if they have one at my library (they are very expensive to purchase). Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 11, 2002 Report Share Posted March 11, 2002 Well, you're doing about as well as can be expected. I'm glad the sides don't seem to be hitting you too hard. Sleeplessness was a problem with me throughout the program, too. -dz- --- Terry Long <pawpawto3@...> wrote: > > Good morning everyone one from the sunny southwest. > Things are going well, I had my 8th shot last night, > with out very bad side affects.

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2002 Report Share Posted March 11, 2002 I know what you mean! I'd be dozing in my chair, then I'd get up to go to bead and an hour later I'm wide awake. -dz- --- <ralexan@...> wrote: > Hi terry > > Sleeping was the hardest part for me when I was on > the treatment.

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2002 Report Share Posted March 11, 2002 That was one of the odd things about the whole ordeal. I felt so tired all the time, yet I couldn't sleep.

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2002 Report Share Posted March 11, 2002 I am glad you were able to accomplish so much. You will need some sleep to replinish your body soon do you have something to help that if necessary. [ ] (unknown) Good morning Everyone. I hope you are all doing well. I had more energy this weekend then I have had the previous 4 weekend. I was able to wash our two cars, went out with friends Saturday night & went to church yesterday. But I was dead tired last night. I still had a hard time falling to sleep. Terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 11, 2002 Report Share Posted March 11, 2002 Sounds like your doing great Terry. Most of the sides I have are manageable. Except the headaches and I get through them. I'm learning a lot of patience. If I wait they will go away. I have trouble sleeping the night I do my shot but other than that I sleep better than I ever have.

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2002 Report Share Posted March 12, 2002 I missed a few days along the way. My body just ran out of gas now and then. I have read that " subjects " on this treatment tire more easily and recover their energy more slowly, so if your body needs a rest you better get it. -dz- --- Terry Long <pawpawto3@...> wrote: > > Good morning everyone.

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2002 Report Share Posted March 13, 2002 I hope your feeling better today. I know it's hard for me to stop when I feel good and then I pay for it.

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2002 Report Share Posted March 13, 2002 We are always here for you . Kathy (unknown) It's been one year since my brother was kicked out of the house. I personally want to thank you for asking how things are, comforting me, and trully listening to me when I was having troubled times. When he lived with us- he caused abuse to my parents and myself. He took an inside piece of me- something that I'll never get back. Sincerely, __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
