Hi and welcome Frostbitten Kiss! I, too, have severe reactions to many medications... though I have never heard of serotonin syndrome, I LIKE the term! Whenever I am urged to try another new antidepressant, I have to go into the psych ward for observation, because of my severe and "rare" reactions! The worst was one that I was given half of the lowest dose and I went nearly comatose and the nurses did nothing but "let me sleep it off!" My doctors of course, were livid and I don't use that hospital any more.

Most of my med reactions are anaphylaxis. sigh. But the antidepressants' reactions are consider paradoxical (meaning I become MORE depressed, for me it can be within hours!)

I think I will google the term you were given...

Again, welcome!
