Difficulties with Danazol

I am not sure how much longer I can last on the Danazol. Yes, Whimpville calls my name! I have read that the side effects will fade as the body adjusts, but how long will that take? My vision seems a bit blurry and my mood is all over the place. I am no longer my usual self. Slight diziness with headache. Lethargy. Anxiety. Sleep disturbance. The feeling that my life is not worth living. Lack of appetite. Plain and simple I feel I am on drugs and the drug is messing with my mind. It has helped with some of the pain and my bowel seems to be acting better. That feels nice, but otherwise I am not able to be a proper wife and mother. I feel I have a ball & chain and have to whip my body into submission just to cook a meal. On top of that once I get into the kitchen I experience a bit of mental confusion as to what I am supposed to do in a kitchen. Of course at the same time we are having a heat wave where the temperatures have been in the 95 to 100 range, but that is not what is messing with me. Wait! I hear something familiar, a tune playing...could it be the "Twilight Zone"? Seriously, I need to be on top of my game, I am skipping tomorrow's dose.

Sharing my Shamrock

Here is my shamrock plant in the morning.
It loves the sunlight and is all perky to meet it.
It seems to say "Top of the mornin to ya!"

Here is shamrock in the evening.
The leaves close up and the flowers droop.
It has tucked itself in for the night.

I love this little plant so much! The pot I have it in is a present from my friend who had surgery. She painted it for me for my 40th birthday. I have had the pot 8 years now. My-my how time flies. Speaking of my dear friend in Maine, she called me tonight. She is home from the hospital!! I wrote her a letter and she got it while in the hospital. She loved it. So glad she is alright and we are both hoping that this is the last surgery she will ever have to have.

As for me, the Danazol gave me terrible mood swings on Saturday. Today is day 3 and I am doing a bit better with it. The hot flashes are annoying, but I am used to them. I am only taking 200 mg. a day so far. I feel some pain relief, but
of course need more time to see. Maybe later in the week I will be able to get up to 400 mg. My doctor prescribed 600 mg., but most times I cannot handle the recommended dosage because I am so sensitive. A little bit seems to go a long way in my tiny body.
