welcome back supermavis

There's a lot of people here who deal with spouses who drink - it can be tough for sure but it's not a dealbreaker - there's plenty of sober support here and in other places and groups

I hope you do go to your Dr - I think everyone of us thought they were probably dying but the prognosis is normally much much better than that, I promise

It sounds as both have an issue but its up to him to face his

Speak with your doctor explain what is happening

Are you using a recovery programme ?

Things spun out of control last night and I caved and drank, so, starting over today. I'm not thrilled with myself but feeling good about today and tonight. If I get to bed by 8:30 or 9, I only have 6 hour-ish to work through. Made french bread today, will be making bacon-potato soup for dinner, with salad and steak. Maybe a food coma will help.

Um...ok. Good to do something to nourish yourself. What about checking in with your md? I did this a cpl months back with more than a bit of trepidation but was met with compassion and a solid medical plan to move forward. Wishing you well.

I'm going to the doctor next week for some testing and talking and assurance.

It's funny - I never really worried much about my health all those years I abused it. Now in sobriety I've had bouts of worry; maybe I have cancer, maybe I've damaged my liver, maybe I have gone crazy, maybe I have depression....

I think what I really have is a tremendously upheaval of FEELING. An extended period of living life as a busy grown adult human being without numbing or self medicating....

Anyway my point is that I think a doctor visit is a good idea just to help out your mind at ease about some things so you can carry on with the business if sobriety and working through all that comes with it to evolve into the greatest You you've ever known.
