I would use a drop of lavender oil and a drop of tea tree, neat. Then cover with a bandage so you can't scratch it.

You may not have that, so calamine lotion maybe?

Any one know of that, I am awful with remembering to do things on a schedual and something that would beep multiple times a day would be nice, but not an obnoxious beep cause I wouldn't ever wanna hear it.

cortizone cream works for itches too

I would avoid steroids unless prescribed and go for something natural.  Like Aloe.

I am so happy!!!!!!

I can't explain it I am just dead tired emotionally and mentally, but I don't want to sleep my whole body just burns and tingles specially my neck and I keep thinking I am smelling something sharp and bitter like Mentholatum under my nose and I'm not.

I'm thirsty again, but I'm full so I can't drink all the water I want


I also feel like maybe I'd like to puke  my lunch if I continued putting more liquid in my tummy than I did with soup for lunch.
wonder what that's all about.



devilishpixie -> RE: I feel weird and spacy, almost like an altered state but not (11/3/2009 1:36:54 PM)

Tfb, That sounds like you are having side affects to medication. I would call your pharmasist or doctor and tell them what's going on before you change or stop them.



Toppingfrmbottom -> RE: I feel weird and spacy, almost like an altered state but not (11/3/2009 1:38:47 PM)

pixie, I called dr oneal and told him I wasn't happy with the med side affects cause they knock me out and leave me so drugged I get migrains, and he said well call me monday the 9th, and we'll see how you feel then, and if you need to see me before the 14th I'll make an appointment but other wise I'll see you then.

Make an appointment and continue to take your meds and track anything you think is out of the ordinary and like I said continue to take your meds as perscribed.Stopping your meds on your own can cause your treatment to be hindered.



Toppingfrmbottom -> RE: I feel weird and spacy, almost like an altered state but not (11/3/2009 1:45:43 PM)

oh and I also don't wanna keep calling and get labled a hypocondriac but I do have questions and concerns every few days cause  I'm having strange things happening.

You can also call your pharmasists about questions regarding your medication and a good doctor wont care if you call 100s if you have real questions or concerns.



BKSir -> RE: I feel weird and spacy, almost like an altered state but not (11/3/2009 1:48:48 PM)

Personally, I'd rather have the label of "hypochondriac" than the label of "doa" on my toe. :)

I won't stop, I just am afraid that when I keep calling to tell them I am having strange not normall things happening to me they won't listen, because I have called before.

I have been on my current medications for almost 6 mths and the previous ones for almost 1.5 yrs and I always called my doctors if I felt strange things happening to me. Infact before I started my current regiment of antibiotics I questiooned both my doctor and pharmasist.

If I couldn't reach him I spoke spoke to my therapist who spoke to the office manager who then called me back. It is YOUR responsibility to be your own advocate.

I almost fell down on Sunday, I was standing there and all of a sudden my world just tilted and I fell back and I grabbed Daddy and hung on for dear life, if he wasn't there I would of slammed my head on the table and cracked it on the concrete when I fell, and been lying alone for hours before any one could come help, I also told that to dr o neal and he don't believe it's my meds doing it so he didn't seem to take me seriously.



Toppingfrmbottom -> RE: I feel weird and spacy, almost like an altered state but not (11/3/2009 2:07:56 PM)

pixie I am being my own advocate, I am just out of it right now I am spacy and confused and this is all new and I just I don't know I can't thnk.* begins crying*



devilishpixie -> RE: I feel weird and spacy, almost like an altered state but not (11/3/2009 2:08:59 PM)

Once I had been on a set of pills that worked for awhile (several weeks) then one night I got light headed and dizzy. I felt like I was drunk. My daughter called 911 and I was rushed to the hospital and I was told it had dropped my blood pressure. So you have to be very cautious especially when first starting them.

Edited to add: Why not go outside with Ginger for awhile and get some fresh air, it might help.
