10:45 amI figured it was finally time to change the theme. I really like this one. There were a lot of hiccups trying to get everything working properly.
I saw my doctor last week and was prescribed Lithium for my mood problems. It’s too early to tell if it’s going to help or not. I’ve also been having a lot of pain as I often do. I spoke to a gynecologist about the pain and that I think a hysterectomy would be best since nothing else is really helping. She’d be willing to do the surgery but I have to find out if it’s covered by insurance, and then my mom would have to fly out here to help me recover. Insurance coverage is iffy and I don’t know whether I want to go through with it. Honestly, surgery scares the shit out of me and the only surgery I’ve had was a tonsillectomy when I was a kid. That wasn’t a good experience. I guess I need some more time to think about it.
That’s all the updates I have for now.

I know in some of the fibromyalgia groups I’m in on Facebook that a lot of people suffering from bipolar, depression or anxiety along with fibro that are put on lithium not only find it helps their mood but helps decrease pain as well, I wonder if that might help with the pain your experiencing?
I’m terrified of the idea of surgery. I had an ovarian cyst a few weeks back and was terrified that it might require surgery. Scares the crap out of me.
Hopefully, the lithium will work for you and that you can come to a decision on whether or not surgery is the right option.

That’s one of the worst things about mental illness… trying to find the right med cocktail. Hopefully it works for you. Sorry if you’re wondering who the hell I am. Silently lurking and browsing, found you through bloglistme.
I am loving the new theme. It’s so light, user friendly, and clean. Minimalism my favorite style. i always say to keep it simple
