Better living through chemistry

I finally spoke with my neurologist around 7:00 last night. After going over the events of the weekend, how I've been unable to sleep, feeling like my heart is going to explode, feeling like I'm going to crawl out of my skin etc., he determined that instead of my having a bad reaction to the migraine medication as I thought I was, I might instead be dealing with some hormone imbalances brought on by the whole pregnancy, giving birth, weaning stuff., and might be dealing with anxiety instead. Not so much sitting here, anxiously stressing out about things, but rather, dealing with wackadoo chemicals causing my engine to rev, rev, rev, thus preventing sleep and/the ability to just sit comfortably.
So now I'm taking Zanex to see if we can't get me settled down. Last night, I took 1/2 a Zanex, waited two hours, and then took an Ambien, per my doctor's instructions. I'm happy to report that I slept all night; woke up this morning in the exact same position in which I had fallen asleep.
Today, I'm feeling all revved up again, so I'm about to take the other 1/2 of the Zanex and we'll see what happens. Hopefully this is just a temporary fix to get my body back on track, but at this point, I'm happy to do anything they tell me if it results in my feeling like myself again.
I have an appointment with my regular doctor on monday to get hormone and thyroid levels checked, just to make sure we've covered all our bases.
In the meantime, if the anti-anxiety meds help me start to calm down, then I go back on the Topamax (Migraine meds) because the last thing we need with all of this, is me getting another migraine.
