I love the cheap machines for Cokes and Pepsi. I like paying $.50 for a drink. But, they went up to $.75 cents, a 50% hike. That is bad! It is not just right. Have you noticed this?
Friday, at the new doctor I was given a new med over my objections. He did not force me, of course, but told me to take it for about three weeks and make up my mind. He put me on Cymbalta for fibromyalgia. I cannot drive with this stuff in me. But, I have not driven in over a year, so not a problem at the moment.
Friday night, I had a sudden urge to go to bed at 1:45 and went. I slept until 6:30 and woke and could not sleep another wink. I got up at 8 am because it was hot in the bedroom even though the thermostat was on 68F. About 10 am I could not keep my eyes open and slept until 2 pm and got up about 2:30 because it was hot again.
This is no way to feel, to live, or to be. Words don't come easily right now. It has even affected typing.
Tonight, we will have spaghetti and meatballs and salad to bread up the monotony of chicken and salad. I could eat chicken breasts three times each day, but Tommy is not so eager. He has eaten it four nights in a row, so I am not complaining.
The neighbors next door are planning a blowout. There is a huge party size tent in the back yard. Her picture is out front--she's 50. And, there are lots of metallic balloons. Two banners adorn the chain link fence, one for her and one for a person turning 21. They had to remove the swing from the large covered patio and two cornhole games are leaning out front. An industrial size fan and another large one are both pointed toward the big tent. A party company set all this up yesterday and stuff keeps appearing out front. No, we were not invited. Saturday night and no place to go. Well, it is that way all the time...so we will not suffer. These are the neighbors who pay someone to mow Tommy's yard.
This afternoon, I bought at The Pig and got free sour cream, buying nothing extra to get Kraft Cheddar chunk cheese at $2.27.
Have you ever taken Cymbalta and how did it work for fibromyalgia pain?
