    i had a bac through.....

    Oh poor Taw, cannot believe you're still vomiting. :huh:

      Agreed, that's quite rough. Maybe split your doses into more often, so there is less of a break?

        during the day I take them every 3-4 hours...It is when I am sleeping that there is a break...

          Hmmmm, that should be often enough. Waking up to take pills is quite hardcore, and not necessary, I don't think. I don't know what to say, other than I don't think it's baclofen withdrawal causing this.

            the only other thing I can think of is my sinues are so bad when I wake up maybe that is causing it...cause it happens even with little or no AL the night before...dunno...I made it thru throwing up multiple times a day when I was pregnant...I can handle this...

              Only one way to check - sacrifice a little sleep for a few nights. Set an alarm in the middle of the night and wake up to take an extra dose and see if you feel better in the morning.

              If you're still at a dose where bac knocks you out, then you should be able to go right back to sleep anyway!

                Hi, everybody.
                What Bleep said has been true for me, Taw. I used to wake up and take them in the middle of the night. Sleep is much too important, for me! And I now take the last dose just before bed and the first dose about 6 hours later when I get up to start the day. Seems to work really well, again, for me.

                Hate to say it, the only time I've ever really gotten sick from it was from drinking. (recent experience was pretty horrific, ugh. I wouldn't wish that on ANYONE.)
                I feel for you, and am really glad that you're sticking to your guns.

                I think if you continue to titrate up, your craving for AL will be curbed, you'll drink less and feel better. That was true for me too. I wonder if that's why the SEs were so bad for me at lower doses? I was drinking A LOT more at 50mg than I was at 120mg.

                Also, I take it every 3 hours, less if I have to, and I've heard that from several people via pm. Not advice, mind you. I like it A LOT better, though. Thanks bleep!

                  Thanks everyone....

                  It has happened in the mornings even when I have been AF the night before...or VERY little AL...

                  I will just ride it out and see what happens...

                  Hopefully the good SE's are right around the corner!

                    Sheesh, Taw. Sorry. There I go projecting again.
                    And not reading very well!
                    I really am sorry for you, regardless of the why. I HATE throwing up.
                    Glad you're hanging in.
                    The good ones, are um, fun!

                      Sorry to hear you're still sick, dear taw. :h

                      But I'm glad to hear you're still taking the damn pills! It really is helpful to put your head down and power through. You'll show this disease who's in charge now! :l

                        Surely you've stopped vomiting by now?

                          Yes, for the most part but the other SE's are kicking my butt! I don't know if I can do this anymore!

                            Taw,

                            Please don't give up. You can do this. You've got to, for your son. Can you take some time off ? I resigned from my job of 10 years. I'm done mid March. I'm going to take 2 months off and try to hit the switch and then titrate down, so I can work again. I was talking about you, recently. You are the only other single Mom I know of on here. Hang in there girl. God, this is hard and these SE's suck!!!!

                              Wow Red, that's commitment. I'm unspeakably in awe of you. This post should be so much longer, but there aren't really words for this. I'll try and think of some later.

                                Taw,

                                Is there a chance you can call Dr. Levin and get some advice from him? My only other thought is that you're having a negative drug interaction. Have you tried looking at epocrates.com and seeing if other meds you are taking are fighting with the Bac? If you're drinking a lot and you're still taking Bac, that can be a problem, too. I'm just trying to help with answers. Good luck, dear one. PM me if you need me. I'm here for you.:l
