REFLECTIONS

Here's how they made it:

This is the first day I'm changing medication for epilepsy.  I'm being weaned off of Vimpat 100 mg twice a day to Gabapentin 300 mg three times a day. It feels like I'm intoxicated; as if I drank half a bottle of wine, unsteady and tired.  It's not very pleasant. I'll still follow your blogs and try to post.

Here is a site I just found out about.  You may already know about it but it's new to me.  It allows you to download images without having copyrights, to use for any purpose. The Link: Free Images - Pixabay Let me know what you think.  Do you know of similar sites?

I'm finally starting to realize that I have epilepsy.  The seizures are mild but real.  Instead of denying it I have to accept it.  This is the second time that I was not allowed to drive for six months. So I'll try to get enough sleep, avoid stress and find the right medications. This past week Lynette made pulled pork in our slow cooker for dinner with some friends.  They loved it.  We both hated it.  Maybe they were just being kind. Yesterday we saw the movie "Split".  I did not care for it.  It was slow and not realistic. Afterwards we ate at the Outback restaurant.  We overate steak and a chocolate cake topped with vanilla ice cream!     Today I had my four hour IVIG treatment.  I took an hour nap, ate a peanut butter sandwich with cranberries in it and searched through the web on my tablet. I'll try to post more often.

People who are  obese  have  hormone  levels that encourage the accumulation of body fat."
