Hi
I belong to a breast cancer zoom group which meets weekly where we discuss things. Also I am seeing a counselor not as often as I'd like she's on vacation for 3 weeks now.
I cannot take the 50 mg of Zoloft the side effects are brutal so I'm dropping back down to 25 mg because my doctor is away until wed . I have nausea dizziness headache feeling like I'm going to explode out of my body so I do not think this is good. I will drop back down because I still have 25 mg pills and see how I feel this is my fourth medication we have tried I'm just so sick of it. It's been good for 3 months but I also had a new back fracture in April so I don't know if that's the cause of feeling down. Which it probably is. I will talk to my pharmacist tomorrow. My side effects were nowhere near this when I started the 25 mg.
I am extremely sensitive to medication. I had to take a medication in my twenties because of a lot of trauma that happened I did not have this kind of side effects back then at all although I know I am older now and things change. I would like to go back on my 5-HTP that I was taking through my naturopathic doctor because I felt great on that until I didn't and I think it needed to be increased a lot and I don't think she's really versed in that. Thank you for your kind words.
