The Granddaughter says I am completely "OFF".....Old, Fat and Forgetful. I just give her that dull, eyes glazed over look and reply, "And your point is?

You guys are starting to give me a "complex"....at 48 I thought I was allowed to claim CRS (can't remember squat....or something like that, LOL)

I tell my wife its "oldtimers disease" but I'm beginning to wonder if I qualify??!!
Scott ! Nope 48 thats not old-timers . Sounds like WSD [ "work stress disorder" ] . Only cure is 2nd wine every night.

I've been suffering from BRS ( brain fart syndrome ) ever since i can remember, so, long ago i devised a technique that i still use today. the other day i went back to the shop to get something and by the time i got there i completely forgot what i went there for. so i went back to what i was doing and instantly remembered what i was going to get, a 5gal bucket ( duh ) so the second time i went to get it, i kept repeating to myself 5gal bucket, 5gal bucket, 5gal bucket, and like always it worked. i read somewhere that when you walk through a door, or any portal, the brain hits a reset button and i think there might be some truth to it because the other day DH was walking towards the shop and asked me where we put the o rings we had just purchased and i was getting ready to answer him when he walked through the door and said " what the hell did i just come back here for ? " since it was fresh on my mind i caught it in action.


I make a lot of wandering circles daily myself, good thing I know this place by heart or I'd get lost around here. So welcome to the meandering minds, gallivanting feet, blase' attitudes club, LOL

Please see U.S. FULL PRESCRIBING INFORMATION, including Boxed WARNINGS, and Medication Guide for ABILIFY.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION and INDICATION for ABILIFY®(aripiprazole)

Elderly people with psychosis related to dementia (for example, an inability to perform daily activities as a result of increased memory loss), treated with antipsychotic medicines including ABILIFY, are at an increased risk of death compared to placebo. ABILIFY is not approved for the treatment of people with dementia-related psychosis (see Boxed WARNING).
Antidepressants may increase suicidal thoughts or behaviors in some children, teenagers, and young adults, especially within the first few months of treatment or when the dose is changed. Depression and other serious mental illnesses are themselves associated with an increase in the risk of suicide. Patients on antidepressants and their families or caregivers should watch for new or worsening depression symptoms, unusual changes in behavior, or thoughts of suicide. Such symptoms should be reported to the patient's healthcare provider right away, especially if they are severe or occur suddenly. ABILIFY is not approved for use in pediatric patients with depression (see Boxed WARNING).
Contraindication
: Patients should not use ABILIFY if they are allergic to aripiprazole or any of the ingredients in ABILIFY. Allergic reactions have ranged from rash, hives and itching to anaphylaxis, which may include difficulty breathing, tightness in the chest, and swelling of the mouth, face, lips, or tongue.
Serious side effects may include:
  • An increased risk of stroke and ministroke have been reported in clinical studies of elderly people with dementia-related psychosis

  • Decreases in white blood cells (WBC; infection fighting cells) have been reported in some patients taking ABILIFY. Patients with a history of a significant decrease in WBC count or who have experienced a low WBC count due to drug therapy should have their blood tested and monitored during the first few months of therapy
  • Seizures (convulsions) have been reported with ABILIFY. Tell your healthcare provider if you have a history of or are at risk for seizures

Please see U.S. FULL PRESCRIBING INFORMATION, including Boxed WARNINGS, and Medication Guide for ABILIFY.


no thanks,
i would rather take a sharpy and write 5gal bucket on my forehead backwards before i would pay to subject myself to any of these side affects. what i don't understand is how the pharmaceutical Co's could have the Gaul and legal rights to sell us something " that may cause death "
 
Ibuprofen, Asa and others cause sudden break through bleeding that could kill us. Tylenol causes liver damage that could kill us. Lets face it. Any medicine we put in out bodies have side affects. we just have to be very choosy. We have to balance the good with the bad.
