Sounds like your new Dr. is what you needed, someone who understands where you are in your life.
 Good for you, and best wishes!!

I forgot to answer your question Tink. YES!!! I always get a flu shot. I use to get strep throat twice a year, but since I've started getting flu shots, I haven't had strep throat since...yay!!!

Good luck getting the kids out Tink. You definitely deserve a break and a nice quiet home now that they are grown. Your Dr. seems to be a really good fit for you...she seems to really understand how you're feeling and what you need.
As for the flu shot, I've never had one. I've only had the flu a few times in my whole life, so I guess I'm lucky.

I don't take the flu shot. I'm at home so much that I don't worry about it.
Your doctor sounds like a really good doctor, one that cares for your health. Do you keep track of your blood pressure at home? Just going to the doctor's office is enough to make mine go sky high. It's called White Coat Syndrome. I do have a lot of trouble with my blood pressure and take 2 different meds in the moring and one again at night. It runs in my family and my Mom has been having trouble with hers lately too. Plus I have panic attacks (take meds for that too) and they make my BP shoot right up there too. The first time I had a major attack I ended up in the hospital for several days! Anyway, listen to your doctor. With the kids moving out I think that things will get even better for you. Take care of yourself because you know that we love you!!!!!

What a great doctor Tink! I think you need to send each kid a copy of your anti-depressant script.

Does anyone know how long it takes for the flu shot to be effective?
Doug came home from work with it! He's totally miserable. I'm going to be one very unhappy lady if we all get it now for Christmas!
