Still wheezing. My asthma has really gone downhill this past year.

  Do you know why?  Is it something environmental/weather related/possible mold problem in the house?  :-\

Could be. I am allergic to dust and cats and we have both. A good thing is we don't have carpet except in the lounge room. I really should sweep more.

Didn't take my lithium this morning as I had a blood test. Must go and take it now.

Pain meds, clonidine, anti-seizure meds, a nasal decongestant, pramipexole (a non-ergoloid dopamine receptor agonist) and muscle relaxer, will probably take more of the latter and likely as not some oxycodone IR after I am all done and finished up building the electrolytic tools  and gadgetry I'm fabricating currently.

Some of them. I still need to take my morphine for this morning. Feel fine though without, but thats only going to be short-lived, as I've already had my oxycodone. I could really do with an antihistamine, I have some but only cyclizine, a sedating antihistamine with antimuscarinic effects and currently I need my brain working at full steam, so I don't really want to take any. But fucking hell, the pain meds are really making me itch like fury atm. And I'm about to add more pain meds. And considering its only the oxy I've had, which usually doesn't even make me itch, it usually seems to cause me minimal histamine release, this is going to be annoying. Can't afford the antihistamine though because it would dull my intellect temporarily and I need it, for  the isolation of boron I'm working away at.

It's odd that you speak of this, after driving my friend around today. She took Endone and something else opioid this morning and complained that all the scratching she's been doing has caused welts. I said it was probably her meds. And just as well she's going to the doctor today - he can prescribe a cream and advise her on antihistamines she can take. Apparently there are non-drowsy ones.

So that's what happened.

Because I was driving, I made sure to take my meds as I should.

  Nothing yet but the omeprazole.  The Strattera can make me queasy*, and I have to get my trash
   bagged and brought outside, which involves bending over and possible reflux.  Gotta wait.  :P



           * Not the Strattera itself so much as the gelatin coating on the capsules.  8)
