Donald had his dr appt last thursday. The dr changed him from imitrex to zomig.. and is referring him to a neurosurgeon who will do a rhizotomy of some sort. Donald is also ready he is not wanting to hurt any more. He has really been thinking suicide lately and even last night very empty inside. I am trying to help and not knowing which way to turn. The thing about the zomig though.. He took 1 pill gave it about 20 mins (I know supposed to be an hour) and then took imitrex shot because he thought wasn't going to work and headache went away. His depression is really bad this time. I am upset that on the Zomig insurance will only let you have 6 a month. There are 30 days in a month and he has a headache or two everyday!!!! That means we have to pay out of pocket. I am calling his dr office today to talk with Dr Walker about his all of a sudden deep depression and the medication. I have missed you guys. As always my son keeps me smiling. On Halloween after we had gone to bed my 3 year old looks at me and says "Mommie, Pull my finger!!!!"
:-) I couldn't help but to roll laughing at him as he made the sound!
Love you guys
