It's ok Liz,think about it, you don't want to drink!and it is embarrassing, when I went to the doc, I had a glance at my chart "Ethan abuse" topped the list

[NoraC]

Hello all - Liz...sending you big hugs....why are they saying you are out of chances? Have you been out of control....driving....etc??? I admit this is a crummy disease we have...if you don't think of it as a disease then put your own label on it. But, we did not choose this........I hope that you get some support thru this.

Sunni - still reading the book about Naltrexone. I do remember that I felt sick every time I took it before. Are you having any side effects?

Mama - can't stop thinking about you & Lucky. Hard times.........

Love & hugs to one & all.......we had the memorial service for Scott's sister's FIL today. Sad times. Lots of tears.....lots of laughs......supposed to go over to the hotel in a couple hours. We probably won't go.....I think Scott has just had enough between his Dad passing away, etc....

Catch you all in a bit............xxoo

Shit,forgot to say congratulations to Mama,your networking DID pay off Nora,I pm'd you

[mama bear]

Sunny - so nice about the facial! I had my first one and it is lovely.
lizz- we are here. Can you talk to a doctor?? Hope the birthday was nice. Cravings suck,......maybe some meds to help? I am glad your sister is concerned for you, but I hate being watched.....
Nora - so sad for all your losses....they really take a toll.
Enjoy the cray cray weather Dots. Didn't you tell us you LOVED winter??:applouse:
Hope you're feeling better with the anxiety Pauly.
Waiting for hubs to get home so the whole family can out fir dinner.

[paulywogg]

Hubs wanted to go to dinner but I said everything is too busy tonight so I made homemade pizza and nobody will eat it!so of course I've eaten a hundred pieces plus a cupcake, I feel ill!!

[Lizann]

Yes mama, I do believe I will be speaking to my doctor, as my husband called him, which is just freaking great because he works in the same unit in the hospital as me.. Told hubby, they would be discreet. I'm thinking periodic blood work to make sure my levels are ok would be a great deterrent for me.

[paulywogg]

How do you feel about Hubs calling your doc Liz? I'd be kinda irritated,but at least he cares,I'm bored, no Louie tonight nobody is around here, I freaking waxed half of my eyebrow off at work cuz I was in a hurry, I didn't think it was very noticeable until I just washed my face, thank goodness I have bangs!

[Dottie Belle]

Quiet here for sure pauly. I am just watching TV....I might go to bed early not sure. BORED......

[paulywogg]

I may hit the hay early too,but then I'll be up early, grrrr,but hey we may be bored but at least we're sober Dots

[Dottie Belle]

Yep pauly that is correct!!!! And glad we are!!

[sunshinedaisies]

Quick fly by as I am off to bed - Nora, I did have nausea when I first took it but now always make sure I have food in my tummy and I am fine .... plus it is suggested that you take half a tab for a few days to get your body used to it. My intake is definitely going down - and the interest in AL is much different - it is slow, but it is definitely working !

Hugs to all, Sun XXX

[Lizann]

Ok so what are we taking that helps with cravings and upsets our tummies? I am sober too guys and cravings have subsided. Yes Nora I got sloppy this time around. I pleaded with him not to call the doctor, but I will deal with that in a few days when I see him. he was afraid I had pancreatitis again. All is quiet right now, sissy left thankfully. Just cNt deal with her right now. Good night my loves, I have taken up a lot of your time today, thank you!

[paulywogg]

Liz,we will ALWAYS be here for you,I forgot about your pancreatitis, no wonder he called the doc, just hang in there, I was researching benzo withdrawal and l-glute came up a few times, so I've been taking it in the afternoon it seems to help calm me down which is weird cuz before I had tried it I felt weird, however itwas from GNC and I think their brand of supps must have weird fillers or something cuz seems like all their stuff gives me a bad reaction, have a lovely night guys, II'll see you in see morning
