Those aren’t fun I know. Try and snack a little more often. Maybe do 6 small meals a day instead of 3 larger ones. Hang in there!

Thank you. That’s what I’m doing but just as fast as I eat, it drops down again. Can I really do this. All I want to do is cry today and I am so tired I can barely stand. Could take care of my special needs son this morning, my husband did it. Is this normal?

I don’t know if it’s normal. Maybe call your diabetes dr and see if you need to up your insulin. Are you taking a new medication in place of the Lexapro?

I’m not on insulin, but metforimwhich I had to stop because my sugar is too low not high!

I would give your diabetes doctor a call. I also take Metformin. Did your dr advise you to quit taking it? My body wouldn’t adjust well. Get in touch with him today and explain you’re weaning off Lexapro. He would know what’s best. I had to evacuate due to the hurricane so my sugars will be crazy due to stress but I’m glad we’re safe.

I’m sorry you had to evacuate from this crazy storm. Glad you are safe. My Dr knows I am weaning, he said it’s not necessary to wean, just stop. No, I’m not doing that. Yes, he said with sugars in the 60’s because of Lexipro, don’t take metformin. That would bottom me out. Stay safe!

I’m glad you’re in touch with him. You take care!

Just found out my creative level are high, nd my GFR is 34. Down from 64. Stage 3B kidney disease. Lexipro could be responsible.

I appreciate that so much. Do you feel better now? The thing is I will not be able to go on any other meds because of the blood sugar issues. I am so scared and so down, I don’t know what to do. Everyone else that gets off of Lexipro seems to go on something else, but that won’t work for me.

I do have Clonidine wondering if anyone tried that for withdrawal?
