cant... insomnia... But think i will mention it to my doc. when im going to see one of em today. They want me back on something called Tramadol (Tramadol is a synthetic stripped-down piperidine-analog of the phenantherane alkaloid codeine and, as such, is an opioid and also a prodrug codeine is metabolized to morphine) and Valium ("is a benzodiazepine derivative drug. It is commonly used for treating anxiety, insomnia, seizures, muscle spasms, restless legs syndrome, obsessive compulsive disorder) :blink:

 

I hope they dont want me to take em together again! :shocked::aah:

 

tramadol... I think mum had it at one stage because of her hip :blink:

 

 

Hmmmmm.... did the doctor put you on both tramadol and valium?

 

I think my writing will be a lil "off" later tonight cos i got new meds. :aah:

 

That's okay, I've notice my writing has been a bit weird after starting back on tegretol...

 

 

Ooooh, guess what? :teehee: I went to see a doctor tonight and he told me that I can come off warfarin! :woot_jump::kachinga: I'm not allowed to take any contraceptive pills though cause it raises the risk (like 35x more likely) of having another clot... :shocked::boxed:

Same thing happened to me and I had some generalised ones over the weekend at my mum's.. spent most of sunday in bed with my pug keeping me company .. he knows when my seizures are about to happen like seizure dogs.. but he isnt trained which is baffling .. here's a link for more seizure dog info:

I hope a better treatment is available for you guys as I'm reading this thread and it seems although you all take lots of expensive meds with lots of side effects , they don't seem to prevent you from having bad times! :(

It was a long weekend where I am in Australia so I was at Mum's. Usually I'm home by myself in the morning when my bf is at work .. so have to keep myself amused while he's out ...

Did you mention something about that in the Aussie thread?

 

Awww, what a clever dog!

I don't have much to complain about, my seizures are controlled (except for the occasional twitch)... I hope things get better for Angel and Ally though... :huglove:

Sounds like a smart idea actually... how do you feel about having someone checking up on you every day?
