DEX!!!!!!! How I hate it and am grateful to it at the same time. Stephen should be on it now as it will be used as part of his maintenance regime. It has been held back for the moment because of his shingles.
When Stephen was first prescribed it the dose was huge and Stephen was horrid but for ages did not recognise that it was him and not me. When the dose was reduced he still got frustrated and angry but was able to bite the nasty comments back as he recognised his "dexatude"
Stephen has always been a very laid back person never one to bite back or argue it's me who is the argumentative one! So it was a huge shock to see him being Mr Angry. I was quite cross that his medical team had not warned us about this, but they said it did not affect everybody the same way (just most people!)
I have read of one lady who got so full of energy in the middle of the night she used to get up, clean the house and do the ironing are you listening Stephen?
We have both said that it must be even scarier if you were an angry person to start with. Do people with anger issues resort to physical violence? It doesn't bare thinking about.
Stephen asked me to tell you Dai that he understands your feelings of self loathing. I would like to tell you that the fact you feel it makes you,like Stephen, a pretty nice dam guy and I, like Janet understand it is not my husband snapping at me but a drug that is doing him good
Please give my kindest regards and best wishes to Janet
Much love Gill
PS I have just worked out (all on my own) what TFFT means you are naughty and I completely agree with you.
You should haven seen Stephen's face when I suddenly shouted it out
