Yea for a balanced head! I hate pushing the fluids after an attack. It's a real high wire act.
The pain pills I'm on are to try to keep the fibro/IBS pain at bay. It's the lowest dose of vicodin you can get and I'm only alloted 2 a day. But with the regular imodium (perhaps a little less), I've been out of pain and out of the bathroom for a little while.
Thanks for asking about the fibro treatment! I'm going back to PA on Monday to get the results of all my blood tests, and get new prescriptions plus an IV fibro treatment (that part usually takes 1.5-2 hours). The last treatment I got was great for the stiffness in my shoulders. I actually was very relaxed afterwards. I'm supposed to get one every week, but I'm going back every 2 weeks after this one because it's so far away.
I'm looking forward to seeing #1 if I have Lyme disease (BF and dog have it), and #2 how my thyroid function is. And of course #3 seeing Melissa! She's great to talk to because she and I understand the science behind T3 receptors and other nerd-friendly information (I am a queen nerd, so true)!!
