Thanks guys....I am and have been on antidepressants and I am hanging in there. This forum helps me to not feel so alone. My personal life is in shambles but luckily my job is stable and it is so busy that I don't have time to think...it's when I am home that I have too much time. But I am too tired to do anything. Lol I refuse to give up. I take my vl blood draw this Friday. I made it almost 5 weeks! I enjoy interacting with all of you! Hugs!

Yes, yo yo is a good word. I actually stopped writing as much because I felt like an idiot, one day sooo low and the next much better, then down. Now I seem to be leveled at dull but not miserable. No question there are ups and downs, you will do well I'm sure. Just hang in there good symptom or bad one thing is sure, it will pass and something new will come along. Sometimes I imagine I am Indiana jones and this is just an adventure! A crappy one but still..... Lol

Shep: This is really great to read.  Having energy while you are anemic is no easy feat.  Just think how great you will feel when your hgb comes up.

I wonder if it is the procrit.  Several people have said it makes them feel so much better.  Who cares, right?  Just glad to see you sounding so happy again.

Yes--I go up and down like a yo-yo. I am ecstatic because I have had two absolutely great days--don't know why and don't care --have thoroughly enjoyed them--even though I am back at work. Of course just did my 2nd Procrit shot so pretty sure the next few days will not be as energetic! Hang on it's gonna be a bumpy ride!

I am only on day 3 of tx, I've gone through depression before but I will go see the the doc at once if I start to get those feelings again, maybe it could be an option for you. I have NEVER joined any type of forum before and I feel comforted to have found this one with sooo many people who really do understand. As only my husband knows about treatment this place I think will help alot. Keep on keeping on, it's all you can do and people here at least can empathise. Good luck!!

I'm sorry you are having a hard time, inspireme.  This is surely no walk in the park, and keeping your mind on something or someone else can help. This might sound nutty, but sometimes cheering someone else on makes you feel much better when you are not feeling well.  Just pick a thread here (especially one where something positive has happened) add a few heartfelt words, and see what happens.   biggrin  biggrin

Feeling tired and depressed. I can't believe I am taking medicine that makes me not feel well. I get the point....I really do.... Just feeling sorry for myself and No one around me has this or truly understands. Had a bad weekend.
