the pregabalin goblin

today's flavor: S L I G H T D Y S P H O R I A
anxiety : 1
agitation : 1


With the power and internet connection down for several hours during the recent typhoon, I was able to do a lot of reading and drawing, whoopee!.  But see how funny this is: Now that I'm almost done with the prescription for the impinged nerves on my hands and wrists, I'm beginning to feel pain in those areas again, I suspect because of my drawing-spree.  :(  The stiffness in my finger-joints returned, and may be due in part to the cold.  I just can't work with my hands for hours anymore.  :(

Still, I'm looking forward to clearer thought and increased energy after I'm done with the Pregabalin.  I'm hoping I don't have to extend or take another form of Rheumatologist-prescribed torture.

(Goodness, I need a rheumatologist now?! I feel like a grandma, and I don't even have kids yet!)


This is how I feel on Pregabalin:


It feels more like the Pregabalin is on me.  I imagine it would look like a giant blue doldrum, only without the goo.  Okay, that's not exactly a goblin in the Tolkien sense of the word, but more like an anthropomorphised giant sack of potatoes. Come on, it's easier to draw an anthropomorphised sack of potatoes.

And this is what I look forward to:


Pwning the damn thing, after stabbing the wretched goblin in the eye, scrambling its brains with the stabbing implement, strangling it with its own entrails and not having to put up with its heaviness. Though I don't necessarily have to be dressed like a hooker while doing it.

Looking forward to brighter days,
