I don't remember going off lamictal but I went off all at once because I had the rash and I was so sick from that I wouldn't have noticed if the withdrawals made my head explode. I don't know about Pristiq but my experience has been most ADs are hard to go off even when I've gone off very slowly because my pdoc knows I tend to have trouble. And having a sinus infection on top of all that, I think it's fairly reasonable that you don't feel well. Hopefully it will start to improve soon.
You are probably right. I just threw up.a bit. Again. I tried calling my PCP and he can't get into see me. I don't want to go to the ER because I'm worried there going to send me to the pysch hospital if I'm having withdrawels.

So I asked my mom to get me some OTC nausea stuff from Walgreens and I think I'll stop the antibiotic. Which may not be 100% a good idea, but whatever.
