I'm so glad you've posted here, xRavenx. I do encourage you to call your pdoc. No one should have to live with breaking down and crying all the time. That's what was happening to me and it was awful. Be very, very insistent. If you feel like crying, don't hold back. 2/8 is way too far away. Make her do her job, not blow you off.
Check in. We're here  |
Thanks Beth
I just called my pdoc about the depression and also increased anxiety (feelings of panic that I can tell are from the medication). I don't feel right at all, and I think this new medication is making things worse. The office said that the APN that put me on this medication will give me a call back later. I think I'm going to request to get off this medication. I tried to "wait it out", and even though it's only been a little over a week, I know my body best and cannot function like this any longer. I felt better before compared to now. I'm hoping they listen to me.
