Hi folks,

I just returned from pdoc for a follow up on the zoloft. I've been on it about 4 weeks now. Well, lo and behold my blood pressure was slightly elevated. The same thing happened to me with effexor and I had to go off it. Now, pdoc said he had not heard of zoloft causing this but it could certainly be possible. He is also thinking that maybe my thyroid function is low. So, here I am again in a bind with med.

He said to go back down to 25 mg of zoloft rather than the 50 and to take the klonopin every night at bedtime, rather than as needed as I have been taking it.

I'm just worried that the lower dose of zoloft won't be enough for my depression. This is such a dilemma, getting the right dose of the right med. grrrrrrr
