The Weekend..where did it go?
I started a new medication at the direction from my Doc. He prescribed me 200mg of Celebrex a day. Day 1 was thursday May16. By Friday night I was covered in itchy hives and beginning to freak out that I had some sort of infestation in my room and felt like bugs were crawling all over me. I was also hearing people calling my name and speaking and it really began to scare my mother. I got to the point I called 9-1-1 and went in basically i got an expensive ride to the hospital b/c those chose not to treat me. Saturday night got really bad and I hadn't slept since Wednesday. Celebrex kind of put me into a manic episode with auditory and visual hallucinations. On Sunday I kept thinking it was night time. At 11 am i laid down to sleep and would sleep 10 min and wake up in a panic over the bugs.
I got really scared, and now I don't know what to believe and I don't want to ask questions to my mom about what she saw. I've not been that out of it since I got clean and sober..very scary

I hope that you stopped taking the celebrex, you are allergic to it! I can\'t take any sulfa drugs, I don\'t know if celebrex is or not, but back in 2008, I took bactrim, which is an antibiotic & had to get a platelet transfusion.
Love & hugs,

Yes I haven\'t taken it since Firday night but Saturday and Sunday were he**. It was crazy how bad the hallucinations were. I am a recovering addict and never tripped this bad in my whole life on illegal drugs. I sure and heck don\'t want to deal with it in recovery from prescriptions.
