More Medicine

Let me start off by saying the visit with my doctor was great! 


Things are definitely continuing in the right direction! She was really happy about some choices I made and things I did. 


She is upping the dose on my primary medication, and adding another medicine for anxiety purposes. That's three pills that I'll be on altogether.


But, whatever it takes for me to get better. That's my attitude.


God is faithful and continues to see me through on the road to total recovery.


I got this in an e-mail, and I hope to do this more, with the help of medications:


When you worry and hurry through your day, it is like an unopened gift....Thrown away.... Life is not a race. Take it slower. Hear the music before the song is over.



Too often my mind is in a cycle, always worrying about what's coming next, and my goal is to make it through whatever obstacle is coming next.


In fact, whenever I reach an obstacle, or even joyful event, I don't really get to enjoy it because I am ruminating about some problem coming next or how I'm going to face the next exam, the next performance, get the next assignment done on time, handle the next round of persecution and ignorance, what problem is going to come up that I don't expect... etc.


Whew! Just thinking about it has made my heart go racing. 


It's just a matter of trusting in the one who created me. Each day, as I said in an earlier post, is a gift. A gift that should be opened with great joy. Each day holds a promise from God.


Someone asked me why I quit with my positive list. I think I will post regularly on Saturday with a list of all of the blessings I experienced that week. So, just because I'm not continuing with a positive list doesn't mean that all sorts of positive things are happening.


Thanks for the prayers. Please continue to pray as my body takes in the new dosages/new pills that the doctor is prescribing and they lead to a rapid return to wholeness.
