Had appoint with Dr. He increased the Lex to 20mg a day and Seroquel to 50mg at night to help me sleep. He also discontinued the gabapentin. He was very supportive and spent a half hour with me which most Psych Dr's don't. He wants me to have my thyroid checked for the increased sweating, could also be a side effect of the Lex. Earliest apt with primary is March 20. I feel good to know that we are moving in the correct direction. I have also returned to my acupuncture treatments which I think are very helpful as well. I want to thank all of you who took the time to reply and support me though this process. I am accepting the fact that this may be a ride and I hope that my family and friends can continue to support me as well. I know I am not in this alone. Stay strong everyone and have a great weekend. 🙏🤞❤️
