[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 262352, member: 1233"] Star - LOL on the scratch pads in the wall. My dad has this MAJOR love of back scratches. As a teen he would agree to most anything if I asked while scratching his back. One year for Valentines day my mom got one of those green door mats that is like fake astroturf. She hung it up on the wall outside their bathroom for him to rub his back on. It looks funny but has worked for all these years! Janet, Keppra seems to be an interesting medication. Jessie has taken it for 3 years now. At first it made her feel like she had a cold. She was miserable for about 2 weeks. I am hoping not to get that. We know it was the medication because she stopped the medication for a few days and felt better almost at once, but as soon as we started it again it came right back. The drug tests don't bug me. They can look ALLLLL they want. Not going to find anything wrong if they do the right tests. And since this isn't a rapid test it problem will be fine. As for prozac, I am not one who gets all the funky side effects. All it does is help me feel more like me. It yanks me out of that black hole and into the sunshine. I have taken it on and off for about 2 decades. No withdrawal either. EVERY other AD I ahve tried exept elavil has made me totally nuts or did nothing. No middle ground. On several I have been terrified of EVERYTHING (of things like the bed sheets, and once I thought the dresser was plotting to pull me into it - crazy things), also a lot of creeping agoraphobia. I have NO intention of asking anyone about any other AD. I won't try them even if they did say OK. Not with my track record. I have gone along and tried every other "next great thing" in the AD world. I am DONE. Prozac does what I want it to. And as for sleeping on the love seat in the library - I was hurting too much to sleep. I am out of pain medications, so it was an agonizing day. I should get medications in today or tomorrow. I am hoping for today. REALLY hoping. Thanks to all! [/QUOTE]
