Guest guest Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 Yes I am taking something for the depression. My doctor has me on nortriptyline and it is also prescribed for chronic pain. I have been on it for a few years now but stopped when I became preganant and then resumed after the birth. I also try to stay active. I am a very athletic person and love basketball. My husband built me an incredible court that I enjoy now and I'm sure will in the future. I'm 39 years old and have had to give up my job because of the progression of my illness and the frequent hospital stays. I was a middle school health and pe teacher and truly loved my work. It was the only job I've ever had where I loved to go to work every morning. I still stop by and visit the students I taught who are in the high school now. I'm in the process of filing for disability and hoping that will go ok. I'm learning that it is a lengthy paper filled process. I'm glad you are trying the stent placement and I wish you success. You and your daughter will definitely be in my thoughts and prayers. Judy Wakefield, VA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
