Guest guest Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 Hey Bobby, thanks for the list. I do take prevacid, phenergren or compazine, now and then but they both make me so sleepy. Do toke some in the evenings, but cant do that in the day, or id be silly and sleepy all day and with my energy levels its not wise. But to be honest the pills just dont seem to make a big difference.. They would probably work better if I did them everyday, but heck Im super fatigued as it is.

Guest guest Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 Thank you and that does help the most. Im like you about living my life as well as I can. I figure my disease is just a part of me and I am not my disease. But as we all know it will rise up and kick your arse now and then.
