Tonight is the night I am supposed to take Orencia. I am skipping it again because I have my crown dental appointment on Friday. I have not taken Orencia since my tooth infection well over a month ago. I could have started taking it last week but I am holding off until my crown is completed just in case. This time being off Orencia is really affecting me. I am not as tired but I am having all sorts of joint pain. Now I am having issues with my knees.
But good news: I am feeling SO much better being off the progesterone and estrogen. I really had such a little idea how much it was affecting me. I was in such a fog with the low blood pressure. I was unable to think and process things. I was so tired and miserable. I couldn't sleep and was so sleep deprived. I guess those drugs are just not for me which is so weird since I have been on birth control since I was 16 years old. There really should not be such a difference according to the doctor but I guess there is! I feel almost back to normal after being off them for two weeks.
I made a wonderful stir-fry today. I cleaned out my vegetable bin and made a broccoli, bok choy and zucchini stir-fry with udon noodles. Delicious!
