I've been abs for 10 days and can actually write again? My hand was always so shaky I couldn't write. Has anyone noticed this little thing that has been such a wake up for me? My cursive is all loopy again (like me!) Patty

Patty,

I am so pleased for you. I have to chuckle about this though. I have always had such poor penmanship. Wouldn't it be a hoot if all of a sudden, because of all this lifestyle change, I remarkably just had great handwriting too! Oh well, one can always hope! Keep up the good work!

Yes it is a great feeling, took me 3 weeks to loose the shakes, used to keep my hands in my pockets

Hi all (by the way this is Patty),

I changed my name because Young at Heart said I sounded like little bo peep- hee. I also feel so much better that the name sounded pretty pathetic.

I know, it's such a small thing, and it wasn't even really that I was shaky, it was my brain, it wouldn't let me write, I couldn't concenrate, I would have to type up notes to my boss pretending I had bad handwriting. I would walk into things all the time and see flickers of light or things in my peripheral that weren't really there. I am petrified at the damage I have done. I got a physical yesterday because I have this strange pain radiating from my my middle back on the right side around to the front. The internist said it was probably stress and a muscle is strained or something but I finally came clean about everything with her and asked for extra testing because the area in the front that hurts is the area where my liver is. She did say though if it hurts to touch that it doesn't sound like an organ issue and I have no symptoms of liver problems (ie vomiting, exhaustion, etc,) she also checked my kidneys right there with pee (for infections) and that was fine. My blood pressure, heart rate, pulse, etc.. were all normal. I told her about the Campral, the supps, and the whole program and that I was seeing a drug dealing shrink and now finally a real therapist/addiction specialist and I said no AA and she said "no sounds like you are doing it all just fine on your own". I told her about the Klonopin and she reiterated what everyelse has said- one thing at a time- so I am still taking that at night and sometimes a half during the day. Kathy if you heard the dosage you'd fall off your therpist chair. Anyway day 11 and I wish I had more checks to write! Now I can finally do my baby's journal without it looking psychotic. Patty

Well, That didn't work now, did it?

Anyway, I love your new name, Patty! I may have said that already somewhere.

Okay, lay your klonopin dosage on me Patty, and let's see if I fall off my chair! I'm braced and ready.

Be real!

2mg 3 times a day- I don't take 3 though usually 2 or one at bedtime with an Ambien chaser.
