new med

What med? Google is great! Except when you scare the c**p out of yourself. Google is gonna give you every outcome of the medication they have. To cover their own butts. That means if during the trial, one person out of three hundred had a heart attack. And it had nothing to do with the medication, they have to say it because it happened while they were on the medication.
I've been on a lot of meds from as long as I can remember.And have very few side effects, or even complications from them messing up each other. Maybe just take a breath, ask your doctor about it and see what you think. I hope it gets better. God bless you.

@christine5 anti depressants /meds for bipolar that my doc wants me on.

@tisme I am on both plus a multiple heart meds, for years now. Its really okay to. Be nervous. My best suggestion would be start the meds. Maybe start one a month or two so you know if you'll get some kind of reaction, which med is causing it.
This is all in my humble opinion.
I would, from my heart, suggest you keep the line of communication open with your provider. It's very important that you can talk to that person.
Happier days are ahead, from personal experience, God be with you

I would definitely following what your Doc says. It’s important for you to maintain a direction with the medication so your Doc can measure whether it’s helping you get better. Take the med. I’ve had many years of taking different meds to help and I’ve changed meds as my doctor has told me to and it works! You can tell and should tell your Doc when it’s not working. It happens to all of us fighting with our body, heart issues, depression issues, anxiety, etc, etc. Have patience with your Doc. They know what’s best for you.

@stsopoci my issue with such meds is that they are a nightmare to get off if they dont work

Everyone goes through the same issue so you’re not by yourself. It’s hard but you can do it. Your body grabs the medicine and still wants it so that transition is hard sometimes especially if you are on some med that is specific for your medical issue.
