Close Bipolar Disorder
I have not been told by my doctor that I am bipolar, but she did prescribe cymbalta at one time, after a couple weeks I felt very strange, hard to describe, like a black cloud was over mean, I felt like a different person, mean, hateful, and confused, I got off that medication ASAP. Now I take Effexor XR it has really helped me, so far so good! As far as Wellbutrin goes to me it is a waste of money, might as well suck on a peppermint. I do have RLS don't know if that started with the Cymbalta

I was diagnosed with shingles Oct. 18, 2007. Had then one month to the day. I had 8 of them on my right side, they itched and burned and were painful. The rash is gone but I still have pain occasionaly where the largest one was, severe at times.
Treatments
Open Restless Legs Syndrome

Open Cataracts
I am due to have cataract surgery the end of this month. I need to know if anyone has tried the "Premier Lens" it has been out 5-6 years.. Medicare & BCBS will not pay for the lens, they are $1750.00 per eye. My eye doctor thinks I will do fine with the regular lens but told me to have the surgeon give me the names of some people I can call and talk to. Spoke to some friends today at the Y and they said go with the regular lens.. Any advise please? Thanks, Judy
