Hello again

It's been a few days since I have posted. There are multiple reasons - work, play, more work, but the number one reason is that not much has changed since I last wrote here.

I continue to experience anxiety - less frequently, but when it does hit - it hits so hard. I feel shakey and nervous, and it feels like I can feel my heart beating hard. I feel my pulse, but it doesn't seem to be any different than before, so I guess it's just the nerves.

I am at 3 weeks today with the Truvada / Sustiva combo, and all in all, I have to say that I am pleased that the side effects have not been worse. I have not missed a dose. I came close once, but remembered as I was drifting off to sleep. The cheif complaint remains that pesky anxiety. I feel it now, have since I woke up pretty much. It just feels like something is wrong that I can't quite put my finger on, and it builds and builds.

I took some magnolia bark and another supplement to help me relax about a half hour ago, so I hope that will nip it in the bud. I continue to take the antidepressant as well. I hope these things will start to kick in soon. There is still some work I need to do for my work project, as well as expense reports that are piling up. I hope that will occupy me enough that I can keep from getting to wrapped up in what my body and brain are telling me.
