My Dr. is monitoring me pretty closely. I have to go back in 2 weeks. My anxiety attacks have been so bad I shut down completely and can't hardly breath. If I start drawing up I take half of one and I am better. I don't have many pills and I don't take them everyday. As far as BC I don't handle hormones well and I have a latex allergy. I don't have very many options for that I know the sponge and the films aren't as reliable but if it happens I will love it just the same. So I am just kinda hoping it doesn't happen. I am the mom of 2 I own my own business and take care of my dad in the evenings. Shutting down is not an option for me....I have been on Lexapro and Zoloft and I can't run my shop while on them so the Valium is helping me get through it....
