I am glad you have found two doctors who are willing to work together to give you the best care possible. I too see a neurologist and sleep doctor. I hope all turns out well for you.

Idk you but that sounds promising. Hang in there. Glad you have doctors who are trying. Feel better soon

@Cigarguy101 life can be downright hard. Peace be with you.

One thing I JUST thought of...because your health is, in fact precarious, you need to make a legal document giving Joel guardianship of your children. May God forbid that anything should happen to you and your mother becomes their guardian.

@4meAndyou that would never happen. I have it already lined up that if something happened to me Joel would become their legal guardian.

@Cigarguy101 You are awesome!!! THANK you for relieving my mind!

A LOT of times, medications can play holy hell with your sleep.

ALSO, (little known fact), drinking even ONE glass of alcohol can eff up the sleep patterns of a depressed person for as long as THREE nights.

@Cigarguy101 You had better tell her you drink a glass of whiskey every day. Hopefully she will know about how THAT affects your sleep, too.

Cigarguy101 · 41-45, M

@4meAndyou she knows and is not worried about the small amount of whiskey I drink a day

@Cigarguy101 Awesome!
