Updates

I stole this idea from [G] for  [the topic]

Kathy says, in a comment on the last post (Illness Etiquette):

I was wondering . . . if you have any "Do" suggestions. Most of the
suggestions on the list are "Do Not" or "don’t go in" or "leave when
they’re tired". I’m glad to know that. But when it is appropriate to
visit, what should I do then?

I think this is an excellent idea, and have been doing some thinking on it — though it may be awhile before I get to it. In the meantime, would any of you who have ideas for this, post them in the comments, or email them to me? I’d really appreciate it — and will credit contributors, of course.

For those interested in the Cymbalta saga — I’m feeling very much better. So much so, that I’m experimenting with dropping pain meds altogether. It’s been over a week now, and while I have had pain, it’s manageable; and my head feels clearer. No great surge of energy, but more presence, and more pleasure.

Both of which count for a lot.

  1. Thanks for the update on the Cymbalta. My daughter-in-law is taking it and thinks it is wonderful but it is for a totally different problem.

    I will ask my doctor about it. most medications are a real problem for me but I would welcome anything that relieves pain.

  2. Ah — I did go back on my pain meds, two days ago. A smaller dose, though — and I’m hoping that will do the trick.

    Good luck!

  3. My doctor gave me Cymbalta for a while,it did wonders for pain but he took me off of it because of a rash I had that would’nt go away
    I loved it it did make me a bit sleepy but stil its great stuff I hope it works for you
