Good morning,
It’s been awhile since we talked. Sorry to hear about the 2 year wait time for Disability. That surprises me since you have regular uncontrolled seizures that require medical intervention to stop. I’m perplexed why your doctor doesn’t believe you need a rescue medication that would hopefully stop the seizures so you could avoid going to the hospital. You said “Insurance won’t cover” but it seems the doc could get a pre-authorization to get it covered. Seems these insurance companies have the attitude, if you live fine, if you die fine just make sure it costs us little if anything. The longer a seizure lasts the higher the potential of it continuing is. I hope your training courses are going well.
I really admire you for all you’ve been through and what you’ve accomplished, your doing good. Keep up the good work!!!
All my best,
Jake

Good morning. My stupid anxiety is just getting hard to handle again. I know it's just in my head but it's my HEAD! I've always wondered what affect these meds have on me metaly and physically. I'm. On 5 meds. I just don't know what feeling normal is. Is it just me or do these meds affect me, how and how much. Went threw a job service from the state that will train and place me in a job that fits my situation.
Just stuck in my head that I know I'm going to have a problem again. Just a matter of when and where. Trying not to lock myself away and worry. Best I can do is keep going one day at a time. Dreams, meds cause lots of them? Don't remember dreaming so much. Woke up this morning and I don't even want to repeat what my thought was. Going out to theripest tomarrow. Just need to find out what feeling normal is. Don't like that word, to broad of meaning. Only one I can think of though.
