Hey Guys,

Well..we are off to a beach in Florida for a week, which I am really looking forward to. I have my neuro appt. today..I am armed with my notebook full of questions. I increased the lamictal last night again..my head feels heavy and weird/a little dizzy-headed this a.m...not sure if it's from that or just headachy too. I'm a little apprehensive about leaving town and going up on this med. I am going to talk to him today about it. I am sure it will all be fine. Just bad timing for this. Wish me luck so I don't feel crappy all week on vacation. We always really enjoy it and the kids are super excited. They are bringing their pals since they are older now. But hey..I haven't gotten the deadly rash yet, so I figure that's a positive, right?? lol! Talk later! Hope everyone has a wonderful day!!! FRIDAY!!!

Woo Hoo! Have a great trip Michelle! :) And I hope you have a great visit with your neuro. :) Just don't go swimming by yourself.
 
I'm soooo jealous!!!! (about the vacation thing, not the increase in meds):pfft: What I wouldn't give for a week at the beach!

If you feel too wonky, you can always plant yourself on a beach chair under an umbrella and watch the waves (and maybe the cute surfers?). And be sure to use plenty of sunscreen!

Hope you have a super time!

Have a great vacation.
Hope that the increase doesn't cause you difficulty while away. Don't forget to take your special phone numbers with you.
 
Thanks everybody!!
I am flying around trying to accomplish all those last minute things..like a million. Need to run to the pharmacy too. Got the sunblock! My neuro appt. went well..I actually saw the PA..which I really love both of them..they are wonderful and spent a ton of time with me and answered all of my questions. Hopefully all will go well at the beach. My head is still hurting, so hopefully that'll improve. I should be online some while we are down there...when I am in the condo some. I love the computer!! Anyways..hope all of ya'll are well too!! Thanks again for the well wishes!!

Michelle
 
Remember that the best source of Vit D is from the sun. (I think I read that it is 30 min a day without sunblock.. but you might research that).
