I'm fried

[days_unfolding]

Job search stuff is frying my brain. I've already applied more places than I have at any one time in my career. In one moment of luck when I was researching a listing on a recruiter's site, I found another listing for a lead writer that's a really good match. However, I'm concerned that most of the jobs are for writers with much less experience than I have. I hope this doesn't mean that we'll get into a battle over my salary. Oh well, we'll see what happens.

I'm glad that I'll be out of the house tomorrow getting my lithium blood test. That might be a sad commentary.

Oh, I never said what happened about the lithium and ibuprofen problem. A nurse called me back to discuss the problem with me. Ibuprofen can increase the level of lithium, increasing the risk of toxicity. She suggested that I call the GP back and ask for something else that wouldn't interact with the lithium. (However, she also said that most painkillers and anti-inflammatories would.) I told her that I'd be taking it only as needed, and she said that would be okay if it wasn't too often. However, if I get to the point when I'd have to take painkillers regularly, I might have to switch from lithium to something else.

Everything is complicated, no?

Yes..complicated..*sigh*

I was going to suggest Celebrex..but I looked it up and found that is seems to have had a significant interaction problem with lithium. *sigh*

Damn. I hope You find something.
