Repeating LO

[Guest guest]

Hi Dear ann,

I am sorry for the ride you are on with your LBD husband. We all understand it

well.It is horrible, but somehow we take one day at a time and survive.

Zoloft should take perhaps another two weeks to do a good job. It is in his

system, and will start working a little better all the time.

If it is not doing the job, then the doctor may want to gradually go up on the

dose. My Don takes 150mg.

With an LBD patient beginning a new medicine one must always " start low and go

slow " And, only one medicine at a time.

After your husband is used to Zoloft then the Doctor may add Seroquel. 50mg

works wonderfully for my husband. More doesn't. It doesn't work for some

patients at all. And some patients take a whole lot more. All we can do is try

one medicine at a time, and then try something else until we find what works.

Because everyone is different. But for me Seroquel is the best! He sleeps all

night, until he needs to go potty from 4 to 5 A.M. Then it's right back to bed

and sleep.

You will get used to your LO standing over you and looking at you. It shook me

up too, but finally decided not to worry. I will ask him if he needs something

and he usually does. End of problem.

I have experienced the crabgrass syndrome too. Kissing me and yet thinking I am

in the other room, or this is not me .

The LO must be kept calm if possible. All of us have learned to go along with

their sights and wonders.

I have to quit now. He is awake and needing my attention.

Love a lot,

Imogene Please forgive the bad typing and spelling. I'm in a hurry.
