First of all...
Hi folks and thanks for still being here.
Its been a over a year since I last posted. Ive had a couple of cycles since then (short and easy to manage) But I guess im no longer so lucky this cycle I'm in now is kicking my A**... last night I "Lost it" badly, had a breakdown I guess, The thing is I am getting pretty bad ones during wakeing hours. Usualy I just get Really bad ones between 2-4 AM nightly and mild ones in the affternoon randomly about half as offten. I had a fairly bad one at work a few days ago and now everyones kinda looking at me funny like I'm crazy.... you know what I mean. I am affraid I'll lose my job eventualy. The lack of sleep is bad enough without getting them AT work.
It was during a crunch time to..... lots of work to do in a very short time, and I run off to "hide" it was so embarassing...
Well, I intend to read back through the posts but if you have time to help could you let me know whats new as far as treatment goes? Anything?
My last atempt at treatment was Imtrex injections... It went badly, it seemed to "break" my pattern and I started to have really bad ones (as bad as my worst night time attacks) during the day and had to take sick leave,
Thank you,
Murdock "Doc"
