My pdoc took me often the Wellbutrin today, and I see him again in 2 weeks. We'll see how things go.

I had the falling issue with too high a dose of propranolol. Definitely talk to your doc about that. Several meds have caused me lightheadedness when standing, I can't be sure if it's one, some, or the combination.

I agree, tell your pdoc about the falling. Mine was so weird, like I'd be walking or jogging for exercise, be fine and then fall like 30 minutes later. Once I fell into my closet (not a huge walk-in), and it took around 30 seconds before I could get my muscles to coordinate again and get up, which was bad, considering I'm in good shape physically (though a bit too thin), but a person who exercises regularly. Even went to see a neurologist after that, but everything checked out fine. It was just the medication.

I am hoping getting off this Wellbutrin gives me some energy again. I am so tired lately. Though maybe I'm just depressed or it's the fibro.
