I just love this place. (forum) Everyone is so non-judgemental.
Thanks for the nudge everyone, and sound advise. I took the morning after pill today around 1:30. Better safe than sorry is what I live by. I have a drawer full of contraceptive, so I had Plan B already. I use Planned Parenthood when my regular doctor is not available & they load ya up with all kinds of goodies! So far so good. I have soup 7up and crackers if I do get sick. Not much else I can do.
Yeah Tearj3eker, I do have lots of stuff going on. When it rains it pours. Anyone who has lived has experienced this. With the kids, the animals, bills, tapering, and life in general, it is a test of will and strength ya know. I am good today though. The son was shineing and I felt pretty good. I have 2 more days on my 1.75 then down to 1.5. I am gonna see how my body reacts. I do not want to get clonidine yet. I was hoping to use it when I jump off. I may have to however. I do not like the way I feel when my BP is high. (obviously) You are right about the RAW-ness of emotions. Geeze. ThIS is what real life is like. WOWzers.
Hat, thanks a ton for the straight forward advise. I am pretty certain I do NOT want any more kids or to start over. Yikes! Mine are giving me a run for my money as it is. At 40, I am looking forward to living life for me sometime soon.
Slipper, I am sure if I was not ovulating yesterday, I am today Lol.. I am super in tune w/ my body and I usually know when I am ovulating. I was trying to reason w/ myself by saying "Well, I am getting older and maybe my eggs are weak. Maybe he is sterile" etc. But the deal is, I am fertile as HELL and I do not want to be faced w/ a major decision while on sub and tapering. Seriously, i think it would push me over the edge..So down the hatch the pill went…Happy w/ my decision.
You guys are great and I appreciate each and every one of you. I will ask the doctor on my next visit for clonidine and for the 2mg strips. The 8mg are getting hard to cut into small enough pieces. I am feeling darned good about my taper. I have read everyones stories and I am armed with as much info possible. I know to expect the worst and hope for the best. Hope all your Thanksgivings are truly BLESSED!!
