There are some wild posts tonight!
I've been switched to Welbutrin form the Prozac. Prozac makes me manic, not too, too manic, though sometimes it can. I've been on Welbrutrin for six days now, and I'm still a bit down. I hate being down!
Somebody please tell me that given time, a week or two, hopefully sooner, my spirits will pick up and this welbrutrin will be just the thing!
Had my contrasting MRI, the kind where they put dye in your head, this morning to get a better look at the cyst in my brain. Won't know anything for a day or so. Now I'm a bit worried.
Oh, and the MRI guy told me I was so dehydrated that he could hardly get the IV in. Dehydration has been a big problem for me the last few months and I can't understand why. I ddrink lots of water, eat lots of soup, drink green tea! My doc tells me my potassium is too high, which isn't good.
Well, what the heck will it be next. A brain tumor (that was so NOT funny!)
Not a good night.
Love,
Eve
Hey, what ever you are going through, at least you ain't going through this.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
My drug progression went from zoloft, to some things I can't remember, to a mix of welbutrin and seroquel, and finally to lamictal. The lamictal is sposed to attack bipolar from the bottom up. It works for me.
The antidepressants didn't work. Good luck! If what you are trying doesn't work, try something else. If your doc isn't helping, find another. There are enough meds out there that sooner or later one will (underlined) make you feel better!
