I bit the bullet and went to see my P.A. today. It was actually pretty painless and it wasn’t like any of this was a surprise to him. (It actually wouldn’t be a surprise to most who know me.) He put me on Lexapro and we’re going to see how I do on it. Apparently, it causes the least amount of side effects, something that’s pretty good as it saves me a lot of bloodwork (something they had to do when I was on Serzone).
I actually feel pretty relieved that there might be something that can be done so that I’m not lying in bed twitching because I’m so worried about things. I also think Jon will appreciate not being woken up at 5 am on Sunday morning to deal with me when I’m at my worst.
