It's been too long since the last update..
I found myself not really feeling the dex after a few days, this was pretty much what my doc said would happen. I slept and ate fine, something he said would be disrupted.. I've since gone up to an adult dose, which is normally the highest dose given to adults on this medication, but not the max that my doctor is willing to try.
I've been much more productive around the house which i've been using to my advantage, not really eating which is an advantage in itself, and having a little bit of difficulty sleeping before 2am.. Overall i've been a bit more productive at work, but not as much as i know i could be. I am considering taking a dex holiday.. Many people recommend it as it resets the brain in a way that makes the meds work efficiantly again, and then i can find my proper dose.
So i'm on 8 per day which is definitely a big step up from 4 but it's making my Lexapro react badly again, bad restless leg syndrome and my moods and flying up and down.. I was hoping to be switched to a different one last week but my doc wants to wait until the dex dosage has settled down. I am pretty sure i'll need to go up to 4 x 3 dex per day, or switch to 3 x 3 per day.. We will see. I've got enough to last me until my next appointment which is in a months time, so i can review then.
R may not have the job like they told him.. DICKS. He called them on Friday and the guy said they'd lost 2 major contracts and were still trying to get him on board.. Would have been nice if they'd told him weeks ago so he could start applying for other jobs. He's currently not working, so it's a bit stressful.
I don't doubt he'll be able to get a job within the next week, but he's been without a wage for 2 weeks and he tends to procrastinate on things such as this.. (we suspect he has inattentive ADHD..) so i'm more worried that he won't be bothered to find something. All i can do it try i guess.
Over and out. :)
