Maybe it's just hibernation...

I haven't really slept well the last couple of nights. For the last week, Starr's been constantly lightheaded and exhausted, napping through large chunks of the day. Sunday, she was running a pulse of 130. (What am I doing taking a pulse? I'm a Mac geek, not a doctor!)

She's been to the doctor; nobody's yet figured out what the problem is. It doesn't seem to be immediately life-threatening, but at the same time, it's really curtailing her activities. I believe she'd like her life back. Me, I'm just worried that we'll find the problem and it will turn out to be life-threatening.

So, yeah. Not sleeping so well.

Did they check her for Lyme Disease?

Is she under stress lately? I had that problem back when I was about her age (i.e., long before you and I met) and it turned out to be anxiety-induced. I was on Buspar a couple of months until things in life stabilized, and suffered no long-term effects.

On the other hand, on the first day of Buspar and a muscle relaxant, I felt like Troy Tempest with his strings cut.
