Well. Yesterday was a bit of an adventure. (I use the word "adventure" sarcastically.)

While I was at work yesterday, I started feeling very strange: nausea, vertigo, numbness and a "tingly" feeling in my face and arms, rapid breathing and heart rate increase. I thought I was having a panic attack, but they have never been like that before. It was bad. I went home and called my doctor's after hours nurse line. They told me to go to the emergency room, so I did. Turns out that the increase of lexapro this week was a bad idea. All of those symptoms were a result of the lexapro. They gave me benadryl to combat the muscle spasms it gave me and zofran for the nausea, but they gave it to me via IV. wow.... it really kicked in fast. I was very drugged out. I think I called the nurse cute, lol. Anyway, that was my day yesterday. Crazy.
