I'm totally off the Florinef. I think my body's doing okay with that; I've noticed fewer sparkle episodes upon standing.
Previously I'd been taking 30mg of Midodrine daily, in 10 mg pills. One at about 8 am, noon, and 4pm. This week (per Dr. Rogers's directions) I stopped taking the 4pm dose. Just going through adjustments... some easier than others. Digestion's getting better, taking risks in small bites. I'm sleepy more and sleeping more, sometimes 12 hours a day. Feeling kinda foggy-minded, kinda slow, kinda sad, but all in perspective. I've been through drug changes before, and I can separate my thoughts from me. My brain's still strong, and I love that-- even read a 400-page novel in 5 days!
This week - 2 pool workouts, 25 minutes ea. Sore the next day. Need to stretch more.
I look like I weigh about 105 lbs. This week I checked in at 114 and 111 lbs. (Disclaimer on all weight-related entries: Weight is neither a complete nor an accurate indicator of health. Within a given month, it is normal for a person's weight to fluctuate, especially for menstruating women. It is my goal to gain weight, and to do so healthfully, mindfully. I am unique, as is everyone. I could say a lot more about unsafe eating and/or exercise habits but will save that for another time.)
Otherwise, keeping up somewhat socially. Starting a regular multi-vitamin tomorrow. Avoiding some things, like cleaning my room. It's beyond wreckognition! Better get on that...after a long snooze.
peace,
emma
