Thanks for the replies, everyone. Still waiting to talk to my pdoc.
The thing about this cocktail is, it works. It works better than anything else I've been on... so I hope I never have to deal with any dangerous effects down the road, although from what I have read, that may very well happen.
I know my 80mg dosage of Prozac is high - I believe it's actually the ceiling dose. I started at 20, and have taken two years to get to 80. I left my pdoc's office dejected when she told me I needed to bump the dose up to 80. I felt so broken and flawed. There must really be a lot going on that I can't control, for me to need that much of just one drug. My husband was concerned she was overdosing me. I half expected to feel like crap, and then discover I WAS taking too much.
But that didn't happen. What happened was I felt better. And when my pdoc increases my Seroquel, I felt even better!
Haha. So there it is, I suppose I have just negated my concerns. I have hopes that one day, maybe I won't have to take any pills.
Thanks again all.
