I have nothing to say about sleep drugs but this:
so the nurses presented me to my Mom in a red Christmas stocking
is the cutest story ever. I think I would have kept the stocking.

Where's your tag from, bon?
Teppy--I am waiting for my doctor's office to open because I see that I am not supposed to take Lexapro and Imitrex--and I am about to enter Week of Womanly Wonder, where I get slammed with migraines every day. You know anything about this? I can't be doing without my Imitrex.

"Meeting in the Ladies Room"
newsflash: Halloween in Salem, MA AKA Witch City is pretty crazy.
The train depot this morning was trashed.
We had some trick or treaters, and we hung out with our co-home owners (condo neighbors) and drank a couple glasses of wine and then I was paranoid for the rest of the night that I said/did stupid stuff. Tom and I ate dinner (pumpkin flavored fresh papadelle pasta w/prociutto and toasted pine nuts/pumkin seeds/almonds & sausage) and then strolled into town. Ca-razy!
"Meeting in the Ladies Room"
Hee. ::visits iTunes::
Halloween in Broward County was cancelled.
I think I'm going to frame the newspaper picture with the picture of Mrs. Flintstone and the word Bitch plastered next to it. It feels vaguely appropriate.
I had to leave my condo to come to this
I woke up completely exhausted this morning and decided to call in sick instead of fighting it. The resulting 3 extra hours of sleep have helped immensely.
ION, I have no idea why my upstairs neighbors open their door to the laundry room and then close it again 30 seconds later several times a day. They actually have to descend the stairs to do anything in the room, but I just hear them open the door and then close it again a short while later. At first I thought they were listening for the washer and dryer, but this happens even when neither of us is doing laundry.

What I've found is as follows:
Imitrex (sumatriptan) – when taken with Lexapro may cause more side effects, though the two drugs may sometimes be used together with close monitoring by a physician.
That's not an absolute contraindication, just a "Keep an Eye On Yourself If You Do This." (And no, it didn't say what side effects are most likely to be exacerbated.)
t edit And in looking on MEDLINE, there are no actual reports of the combination resulting in Bad Stuff. So there's that.
t edit again And when you Google the two drugs' generic names along with "interaction" (like so -- "escitalopram sumatriptan" +interaction), there are also no reports of badness.
