Not Coping

[ENKELI]

@Birdofparadise8 sorry princess I missed your reply. I think it's not a huge issue when you've only just started the meds. If you'd been taking it for a while then I'd be worried for you.

I didn't end up doing satay chicken last night, I had left over chow mein instead. I'm getting hungry now so I might have to get my lazy butt up and cook.

How was your bolognese?

[Birdofparadise8]

I just Googled the med interaction with another med I take, and it said major effect, so I emailed them back. 

That's okay I hope your chow mein was yummy. 

It was very yummy thank you. @ENKELI

@Birdofparadise8 wow, that is amazing that your pdoc didn't pick up on that. I'm lucky, my GP dispenses all my meds and he has special alerts that come up if he tries to do a script for me that I can't take. I also have learned to ask for as much information as possible and he will either tell me or give me pamphlets. It could be that your pdoc forgot about possible interactions too. Good on you for checking my clever princess. 

My anti-psychotic makes me sleepy but the downside is if I don't take it I'm wide awake all night. And if I take a certain prescription pain med it can interact with the anti-psychotic too, making it not work. 

We have to be so careful when we're stuck with mental meds!

Yeah, well, he wrote it on a script pad so he wouldn't get electronic notifications, but you would think the chemist would know. 

Thanks @ENKELI you are so sweet.

Yeah, my current antipsychotic is for sleep, and this new one is for depression, but they interact with each other.

Hey @Birdofparadise8 @ENKELI

[Birdofparadise8]

Hi @ArraDreaming 

How are you?

[ArraDreaming]

I’m ok, I am tired and won’t be far off bed, trying to get into bed earlier at the min, how are you @Birdofparadise8

[ENKELI]

@Birdofparadise8 yes the chemist who dispenses your meds should probably have known.

I'm feeling rather sheepish, I thought Glisten was male....I'm so embarrassed 😳 

What do you have on tomorrow?

[Birdofparadise8]

Yeah, they should have @ENKELI 

Oh, really. I did wonder, too, but I thought Glisten was female. By the way, don't be ashamed; I get people's genders around here wrong all the time. 

I am very sleepy as well @ArraDreaming 

[ArraDreaming]

I’m not too bad tried but just yeah probably need to switch off at night earlier I think @Birdofparadise8 down to one coffee a day too
