Well, at the very least I can now have confidence in the fact that my EM is properly diagnosed, and apparently the medication is working rather well.

I often forget my medication but normally remember it within a couple hours, today I forgot for longer and remembered when this happened [link] that was an hour ago, it cleared up a little while ago now. When I was a kid and had "asthma" and I didn't think it was right because there didn't seem like much improvement with the rescue inhaler, eventually I convinced mom to let me go off the meds. Nothing happened.  The daily meds did nothing, the rescue inhaler did the same as sitting down. After that I have always been wary of diagnoses, and the fact that the creams I have been getting for EM have had no effect have worried me but apparently I just have thick skin because the amitriptyline pills are obviously doing something right. That at the very least confirms it is neurological, unless I have something new that is a version of depression that makes you on fire.

Well whatever, I will ask for an up'd dose next appointment and see if I can get the flares further knocked down and maybe be able to stop getting sunburned without sun.

A version of depression where you are on fire sounds like the most godawful thing I have ever heard of. ._.

I am glad you have found something that seems to be working, that is generally a good thing.

Yes but those things are unrelated. It is worse if they are the same thing... I think. :noes:

I think being on fire often makes people depressed.

Yes. Depression is an unfortunate side effect of many illnesses. I get it without it being a side effect... I think.

Your sad is a side effect of sad. You need to fix your sad so you can fix your sad. [link]

Glad to hear the meds are helping you, your medical situation sounds so stressful and you shouldn't have to deal with all that. :hug:

Yes stressful medical conditions suck.

Especially when they get worse with stress.
