It has been so wonderful to be able to handle things without my hands having a mind of their own!!! lol... I can put my eyeliner on with one hand not being held steady with the other, pour a cup of coffee without having to hold the carafe with both hands, and my handwriting is looking so much cleaner and clearer! I love it!!!
Ok, so since the last time I wrote, I have noticed my body becoming used to the small dosage I take at night. Usually by evening, my hands are starting to show some tremors again, but it is still much better than what they were before. When I don't get enough sleep, then I really see my head shaking more. This coming Friday I up the dosage from 50 to 100 mg, so I'm sure I'll be feeling the sleepy/groggy/drunk-buzz like I felt before when I first started. That feeling is almost gone now that I'm getting used to this tidbit of medicine, so I can't wait to see what will happen on Saturday morning.
Review on the ergo pen:
I can see how the pen would probably help more when I'm not on the medicine than for now. Now that I have more control over my hands, I can use regular pens and not worry about how the letters will look. Getting used the how the ergo pen sits in your hand can take a little bit. The only real problem I had was the ink would stop writing and I would have to doodle to get it to write again, so I'll be emailing the company that makes the pens to let them know. But I probably don't write enough at work either to keep it going. Most of my accounting is done on the computer now.
I've also figured out how difficult it is to try and blog during the week. Not enough time in the evenings after work. Such is life. However, I found out that I can blog from my cell!!! WOOHOO!!! Soooooo.....I'll give it a try next time something crosses my mind.
So until next time.....Happy waves.
