maystone: (Four alpacas by Lee pic by Dar)
[personal profile] maystone
All of my doctors have been talking about putting me on Lyrica for the burning in my extremities, so I finally broke down and took one 75 mg tab yesterday morning. I'm still loopy from it! I was a zombie yesterday, couldn't think, didn't really want to move. Dar gave me something to counteract it, and that did help clear up the fuzzy brain anyway. There is no way I'm going on this full time. It did help to dull the burning, but the side effects are too extreme for me.

I did manage to wander out to the paddocks yesterday afternoon, and after fumbling around with the camera for a bit (How does this work again? Oh, turn it on first. Yeah.) I took some pics of the guys. It seems that Adama has a bit of Ferdinand the bull in him: he looooves eating daisies.

Dar picked some daisies for him. She was giving the rest of the herd
a shower while I fed them to Adama.

Daisies! He's all excited. That's Delilah staring at him.

Val Gertie daisies_0767
Val wanted to know what the fuss was about, so I offered him some.
He ate them but he didn't love them. That's Gertie giving me
the hairy eyeball.

Sparky Conchita_0746
Our little Sparky is as big as his mom Conchita. And he's only a year old.
Isn't his fleece beautiful? Dar is in the background feeding Jester.

Gertie Adama_0750
Gertie giving me her patented stare. That's Adama spazzing out in back.

Val Neo_0754
Neo adores his big cousin Valentino. Worships the ground his little hoofs trod on.
Fortunately Val seems to like Neo's company, too.

Neo after getting his afternoon cooling shower. Where'd his ears go?

Alpaca love! Sorry about the Lyrica, being zombified is no good.

Who needs Lyrica when you have alpacas anyway :)

*waves*

[livejournal.com profile] malterre mentioned that you were also undergoing various neurological issues, so I've added you to my friends list. I may not comment much because of utter exhaustion.

Hi and welcome :) Mal has mentioned you several times; nice to meet you. Oh, I completely understand. Commenting is not required here, trust me.

Sorry you're having such troubles. Do your doctors have any clue?

Friending you back, btw.
