@heidirahk Good to hear that problems are decreasing. I've been living with tingling, burning, pins and needles in my feet since 2013. I'm glad that a headache is an extremely rare event for me.

I started taking antidepressants in 2003, but it took more than two years to find one that helped me. Some did nothing, one made me hungry all the time, and I gained ten pounds in the 6 weeks I tried it, and one made me more suicidal than I already was. I've been taking Wellbutrin since 2006, and when I felt myself slipping back into a deeper depression, my psychiatrist added Mirtazapine a few years ago.

Finding the right medication can be a real challenge, and it sometimes means trying several before landing on the right one. I wish I had kept better track of all the meds I've tried to treat the non-stop pain in my feet and now it's moving up above my ankles. I have kept a journal for a long time, and often noted the meds I started or stopped. I looked back to 2004, and started a list. Many of them I don't remember taking. I also wish that I had noted why I started or stopped them. (I do that now.) My memory has never been great, and at 70, it isn't improving, so Evernote on my phone is my external brain, along with the calendar with its notifications.

I haven't been following this conversation, so I don't know, or don't remember, the reason you're trying different medications. It can be very confusing in this digital age where there is more information about more medications for more ailments. We're bombarded with too much information (TMI), as my wife puts it. Take care. I'm pleased to know that you have a husband at your side.
