Good sx on treatment and open thread


There are some good things that happen on tx.
I developed serbatious dermatitis about 6 months before tx. One month after starting tx it went away. I also had a planer wart that subsided to the point that I could hardly see it. Curse the luck, they came back after ending tx but what the heck, I had relief for about 10 months.
Has anyone else had things like this happen on tx? Who was it that posted about being euphoric on riba?

My joint pain disappeared after the first week of treatment and has not come back yet.  I asked my NP about it and she said most people get more joint pain, so I feel fortunate.  

Oh, and I certainly care less about housework and who was it that said about cat hair, etc.  My mood is more calm and I am down right lazy at times.  Wonder if that might be the Paxil, Ativan, or percocet (for headaches)?  I used to be the tireless 'energy sort of a bunny', not now!  My husband still can't get used to the new me.

Well Monday night tx gave me reason not to yell at my kid after I realized once again he didn't wipe the table clean after clearing it.
It was 11pm, I sat down to a bowl of ice cream and saw one of my riba pills laying on the table that was supposed to go in my mouth at 7 pm. Man these meds do not wanna go in my body lately! I was sitting in the same spot where I sat to do my leaky shot Saturday night.
So I gobbled the riba then meaning the 2 I take at night were 4 hrs apart. The reason it was on the table is cause at supper(I was in a rush to pick up a friend for a meeting) my wacked out toasted ex (with her beau in tow who isn't supposed to cross my threshold)comes walking in to pick up some papers. She's babbling away almost coherently to my father and the ceiling I guess as I'm having difficulty trying to focus on my med dispenser. She sees me struggling and steps my way.."what's the matt.." Exactly at that moment both my Dad and kid shout in unison as I'm tossin meds in the hatch..."DON"T!!!speak to him when he's taking his.." Too late. I Burst out laughin at the fear in their voices that the 'Riba Animal' would be released in fury as I threw the meds in my mouth. Musta spit one back out in the process.
Also I've lost as of this week 20lbs on tx so I'm now wearing my son's clothes from last year.(Thank goodness, this year he only wears black).

To be absolutley honest Mrs O I sometimes wonder who has it better'n me.
Yes I did end up in an attic crawl space drilling holes for 4 hours today..but when I met my uncle/boss at noonish,like many of our days, he was finishing late breakfast at the diner and he decided I should at least have coffee and pie(cherry w/van ice cream)so he would have an excuse to order some. We didn't get to the job til 1:15 and I got paid to sit there and eat a free lunch. Tommorrow I'll probably go to the mural I started at whatever time I feel like, or to the diner if he calls...When works hard it's rough but I punch no clock and get to say..'not today' if I need to. Usually only if I'm busy doing something else though. Course I'm broke..but for now it's a trade off.
Hope your increased sx are just temporary.
Be Well,
Don
