Down a little recently

April 6, 2007

I have not posted in a while.  Don’t know why. 

Moving up to 1500 mgs of Depakote ER didn’t work for me.  I think it wasn’t mixing well with the additional blood pressure meds they put me on.  I couldn’t get out of bed because I was so sleepy!

I was really down about the blood pressure issue for a couple of days,  but everything is looking up now except for the sex life.  

Still, life is better than it was four to six months ago. 

Fibroymyaliga is doing well.  I was a little stiff this morning because Spring in the midwestern U.S. has been getting hit with a cold wave.  Snow flurries in the air today.

    Hi Manic Mo
    I’m Bipolar Mo!
    Like you I rolled along through life until my mid 40s when I developed heart problems. Suddenly thud! I’m moribund and unable to work. Many months later was eventually diagnosed bipolar. More months of meds and ECT without success. I was put on Depakote during a recent manic phase and have never been so well since all this shit started. Here’s hoping it continues.
    Wishing you well for the future.
    Best Wishes
    Mo
