The Meds 3 (Tegratol)

Now this was a short and bitter love affair that lasted all of 30 minutes so it will be a short post. Tegratol was the first anti-convulsant I was placed on. I think I might be spelling that wrong too, it might be tegretol, but anyway I wake up one saturday morning and my sister and her baby boy are the only ones there to watch me. I get up take the pill and eat a bowl of Fruity Pebbles for breakfast. Then I start in on my Saturday full of video games. Next thing I know I am stumbling into the living room where my sister sees me covered in my regurgitated breakfast and wonders what happened. I wasn't even aware that I had vomit on my face, and in my hair, and wherever else it managed to fall. I had most likely had a seizure and then threw up my food. That put a stop to Tegratol for forever. Thankfully being the good sister that she is, she cleaned me up and the room where I had the seizure.
