Medication Update & Storytime! (Opioids, Withdrawal, Nurse Hotline & More!)

Hi everyone! In today's video, I tell the stories from my recent trials of Nortriptyline and Butrans (Opioid). Which includes everything from sleep paralysis, withdrawal, nurse hotline, paranoia, and vomiting at work and on campus. Learn and laugh at my journey of figuring out that these medications are not the ones for me!

Wow thanks for sharing your unfortunate side effects with meds. Those are 2 wild stories to definitely document. I just found you and you're a great story teller it was very entertaining 😊 I'm just starting on my fibro med journey as I was recently diagnosed last week. I'm starting off on Gabapentin day 5 and already feeling my muscle pain, muscle spasms and cramps are worse with new symptoms of joint swelling in my right hand and shooting burning sensations that go down my right right arm to hand. I don't see my doc till November but I don't think this med is for me. On with my med journey. I hope you get approved for Ketamine infusion 😄

Hi! Thank you so much for your comment! Being able to share my experiences with people who can relate gives my pain at least a tiny bit of purpose. Best of luck as you embark on the med journey may you find relief greater than the side effects! It can be such a draining rollercoaster to be on. Sending you strength and love for this journey!
