Gabapentin

Hey all, it's been a while, busy I guess just like the rest of you. One of my last posts centered around the side effects of my hormone treatments of which the hot flashes is included. (not the most frustrating, the freakin weight gain is, ugh!)

So I talked the Dr. and he suggested I increase the amount of Gabapentin that I take and that along with the flax oil should do the trick. Well, unfortunately no....which at this time of the year (warmer weather) isn't such a big deal, I can blame the hot flash/sweating on the weather. It only gets uncomfortable during sales meetings with clients.

But in the end, it gives me a reason to talk about it and help raise awareness so in the end, it's worth it.

quick post tonight, hope you're all doing great.

I promise I'll be back in touch soon.

Be well, I will :)
