Insomnia & Raging Headaches

This weekend has been the total pits. I did not sleep a wink Friday night, and I wound up sleeping all day on Saturday to catch up. And.... ever since IVIG stopped on Friday, I've been having insane headaches. I'm so glad that the doctor changed the treatments to every 3 weeks. I'll get a break, at least. I've been doing some reading on the CIDP message boards, and it seems that out-of-control blood pressure is part of this disease. No wonder its been so up and down for the past 6 months. Maybe thats part of why my headaches are so bad, too. Oh well... another bad card in my poker hand of life. Do you think I will ever beat the dealer?

Hey Rudisillart! Sorry its taken me a LONG while to respond, but I'm just starting to feel like my old self again. Thanks for your concern... I've been in the hospital a good long while, got divorced, and pretty much went to hell and back the last month or so. Its so nice to hear that I've got a cheering section. Please tell them I said hello, and I'll try to be back (along with my art) to flickr as soon as I possibly can. How are you? Take good care! ~Amy
