Enga mellom fjella: where from across the meadow, poems sing from mountains and molehills.

Rat poison: to take or not to take.
Me, Myself:

DVT = deep vein thrombosis. So, I"ve got blood clots (confirmed by radiology). The doctor has prescribed coumadin but I'm waiting for a couple days (clots are old). There are diet issues, aspirin issues, travel issues and previous head injury issues. I was put on paxil years ago instead of Welbutin because of head injuries and the concern over bleeding. So... l need to do research this weekend. (Paxil worked for me until it didn't and left me suicidal.)

At least: it wouldn't interfere with my hypertension pills; I already have hair loss.

I need to take a deep breath and figure out what to do.

The blood clots are real. The only question is what the best treatment or management may be. Even small things like buying the proper anti-swelling socks (got two pair). Exercise? Good idea or bad?

That's my news from yesterday. It does depress me a little.

*Reading* Just finished "Words like fate and pain" by Karen Fiser. This set of poems were written when she was seriously ill. Interesting choice considering my state of mind.
