Hello everyone,

Sorry for my lack of posting lately but I have had an incredibly strange week or two. My mother-in-law was here from NY(man I miss that place), my doc increased my meds and I was having up to two seizures a day, my husbands work schedule changed and now I feel like a single parent, and I had some depression over this whole WORK thing and not letting me back till they had all my PRIVATE information. WHEW!! http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/wow.gif

I AM BACK!!! Everything is in the works and my life is starting to stabalize once again. I have missed all of the goings on and I am trying to catch up. I missed welcoming all of the new people but I do have a post intended just for that called, "Welcome to All the New People" that I hope they read.

Here I am so post to me and ask me anything you want. What I will tell you is a different story...ha ha ha. That was a joke and a poor one at that. The meds are making even my sense of humor strange... http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

Hope all is well with everyone. I miss the regulars and am anxious to find out how things are going. Keep posting and hugs to all.

God Bless you all,
KittyMom

Hi Kittymom
It sure sounds like you've been through the ringer (but came out on top!). So are you back at your retail job now? How did your poopy boss respond when you told him to call the HR department.
That's too bad your husbands job changed - sounds like it's putting an extra strain on you.
Are you doing better on the higher level of meds? I hope the side effects are more of a problem. That's always such a balancing act.
Take care
Maggie

Hey Girl... Welcome back!! I've been worried about you this week. Glad to hear that the dust is starting to settle just a bit.

At work now. It's nuts with the move thing and now they've (executive management) has decided that we have to move within the new building. Some days you just can't win. But, I guess the new, new place will be better. We will have WINDOWS http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/smile.gif

Talk soon... Long weekend I plan to catch up on everything I've missed of late.

Hugs and love

Lisa and Kids

Thank you Maggie and Lisa, its good to be back. I look forward to hearing from you.

God Bless

Hi Kitty,
I just wanted to say that I think you are an Inspiration. Ive read several of your posts and you seem to be such a caring and wonderful person as well as dealing with so much crap from life and your job. Its so great to hear how life can get you down but you come back with a smile. You (and others on here) have helped me out alot. Just reading some of the things helps me realize that it will all be ok, it can be rough and sometimes gets you down, but it will be ok. I used to be like that...when life gets too much i would dust myself off and pull through. After reading these boards, I feel some of the old me coming back...i think that this depression and the E is not the worst thing ever and that i can move on and be happy. I just wanted to thank you. Its nice knowing that people understand, truly understand, and can be positive towards all this...even with the bull youve been through you ahve been encouraging. Thats a special quality and Im so glad that Ive come here to find it in you and some of the others. Keep it up girl! I just wanted to say thanks.
God Bless you!!!

Tigre,

Thank you soooooo much for your kind words. Geeeesh, I haven't had that many compliments since I made my Italian Casserole...ha ha ha. You are so welcome sweetie. I just try to help anyone in any way I can because life itself can be a horror but then throw on "E" and now....forget about it. It is NUTS!! I know how that feels so I try to help others to have some good to their day as well. Thank you!! Oh, and I am glad to hear that the old you is coming back!! I love it when that happens don't you?? I'm glad we all here could help with that. I know that there have been a few of your messages that make me feel better when I am in my "funk" and can't get out right away. YOU DO have that in you! You helped me with it before.

God Bless you sweetie and I hope you are feeling better soon. Write!!

(((HUGS)))

See you did it again, put another big smile on my face.. http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/smile.gif. And yes it sure feels good to see at least some of the old me peeping through. Becuase of all the encouraging words on here, I am trying harder than anything ive ever done before. Before, well i just kept sliding. And thank you again for seeing the good side of me that i seem to have forgotten. I feel better than before (not 100%) but enough to fight this with everything i have. I am starting on antidepressants on Wed...that mixed with the newfound strength (thanks to you and the other kind souls on here) I truly feel that I will pull out of the hole that i sank into. Oh and big ((((hugs))))) to you for the help. Keep it up woman, you are making such a difference in people's lives. A rare gem. Thanks to all on here who give encouraging and inspiring advice. A great help when most people around here have "written" me off as a worthless cause. (im saying that with a smile by the way)
God Bless You Always,
Tigre

Hey kitty!

Just wanted to see how you were doing....I am SOOOO glad that things worked out with your employer, I can't believe you had to go through all of that, like seizures aren't bad enough, you have to deal with something like this.

How are your seizures doing?? Gotten any fewer at all??

Hope all is well with you, and sending prayers and hugs your way,

Amy http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/smile.gif

Amy,

Thanks for your concern but things DIDN'T work out with my employer. Come Tuesday I am filing a suit against them thru the ADA and the EEOC. I am going to make sure that the BAS/TERD doesn't do it again to any other unsuspecting person and make their ailments worse by being a CREEP JERK FACE. (Sorry, little upset.. http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/wink.gif ) I'll explain more later if you want to know.

I am feeling like a million dollars!! I haven't felt this good in I don't know how long. I love the increase in my meds. The only thing is now I am hearing all of this scarry talk about unexplained deaths from this medication. I DON'T LIKE IT!! I am going to talk to the pharmacy today and see what they say.

How are YOU doing?? You, Grumps, Lisa and I don't have our A.M. chats any longer. Why?? Do you know?? Maybe Grumps and Lisa will see this and respond also. I miss that http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/frown.gif

God Bless you and tell me how you are doing,
KittyMom
