I need a new doctor

I've been to this doctor a few times. I have sleep issues. She's not a specialist or anything, but a few months ago she said I should give Ambien a try since I'm not a huge drug taker. I hate taking medication, and I try to stay away from it at all costs. However it's working ok for me.

But, I'm about to lose my mind all over again with insomina... NOW I am also taking this other medication for the last week, and guess what I just looked up on the internet.... It causes insomnia! So the Ambien isn't even working this week because the other medication I have to take keeps me up. Not only that, it causes incordnation, and dry mouth! All the things I am feeling this week.

Fortunately for me, I go back to the doctor on Saturday, and I am going to talk to her about it because I'm going to freakin' lose my mind. And I'm serious. Not only that, I found out that it is found to change something cardiovascularly-- which is why today when I went outside for a run, I just about died....

Good news though, I think it is officially spring time. Begone cold wind and low temperatures. Bring sunny skies, blue with no clouds (or some puffy ones..that's ok). Saturday my BFF are hanging out and I hope we can be outside for a little bit.

Working on a possible vacation with J over memorial day weekend. I know, those of you who are stateside, it probably sounds like a nightmare. But we're trying to see if we can leave the country and still go to the beach... We think the Bahamas might be it. -cross your fingers- That's what I'm using my tax return on.......

Ok, for the record. I have taken ambien, I feel a little drowsy, and uncoordinated. So I better go wash my face and brush my teeth before I zonk out..or rather, I have to take the other meds too... DAMN it.
