Hubby and I had a fairly good weekend at our cabin on the mountain. I wasn't feeling all that well, though. After a week of "spotting", my period finally started heavy on Saturday. Joy! Joy! So I toughed it out and loaded up on Advil. Yesterday was better and we went for a ride on our 4-wheelers. A bit tired today. I go visit my doc tomorrow morning about the ovarian cyst. That may be what's causing my period problems. As for the effexor....it continues to help although still at the very early stages. I have high hopes that it will continue to help even more the longer i'm back on it. {{hugs}}
