I dont know what to do. Ive been on this med now for a couple weeks. Im getting worse in my attitude yet can address situations with a clear head. I feel horrible though. Im noticing frustration alot and yesterday was so speedy. I havnt been on the site here lately because of it all. I decided to visit today because i dont know how to manage whats going on or if its normal. Im approaching the date of my husbands death and thats been weighing my mind alot. Ive got alot of financle troubles and my car is now broke and im just totally stressed out. I also think i may be pregnant and have no doctor ..a general doctor to turn to. I dont know now if its the meds or my hormones or whats causing me to feel this way but im lost and confused and emotionally mixed up. I think and feel somethings worng and dont know what to do. I feel even my demeanor in writing has changed. Where do i go from here? Sorry everyone..i really just needed a place to vent and lose it for a moment. I feel lost!

Call your local Planned Parenthood or buy a pregnancy test at a drug-store. You do not need a GP.

Thanks for the reply. I know i can i could go to plan parenthood but have a deeep fear of going to one of those places. I have taken a test...gave me mixed results. Im kind stuck in a waiting game in that one. I want to believe its the meds though

I went to Planned Parenthood to get my first IUD after my third birth. Both my midwives used to work for Planned Parenthood. It is an esteemed organization. You have nothing to fear. Some Planned Parenthood clinics even have GP's and offer various services for men and children - immunizations etc. They make a difference in the lives of millions of people. It is totally OK to go to your local Planned Parenthood.

Since your on a new medication that could be the answer to your mood change. Call your Pdoc and let them know about your concerns.
I agree with Hamster about Planned Parenthood,Or you wait a week and retest at home. Don't ever feel bad for posting here. Support is support ! Good Luck

Yes, don't feel badly for posting here--EVER!! Do go to Planned Parenthood though, and get a GP!! Maybe they can even hook you up with one. I think the new meds could even be the culprit with the sudden changes in your emotions. Often they are. Please get checked out by someone and then let us know the outcome. Good luck, and take good care.

Thank you all so very much for the replies. I have decided to make an appointment with plan parenthood for this thursday. I am feeling somewhat better today but worried about tomorrow. The new med i take is called prestiq. I only take it every other day. The day i take it (today) i feel somewhat better..then the following day when i dont i am emotionally eveywhere and not able to think right. I am able to react in a calm manner more than i ever was before but tend to have more screwed up thinking. Its kind of difficult to explain but i think it makes me super manic the days im not taking it. I also take neurontin which helps some but ive gotten used to the dosage amount so i cant say it makes me feel much better like it did when i began taking it. I see my pdoc on the 24th and hope he can explain to me whats going on. I really am glad for this site. I hope to be able to write more here soon and able to help others like i was..im just not in the right mind to do so at the moment. In some way i hope i am pegnant since my fiance and i had been trying for a long time and recently stopped because it was causing so much added stress but if im not im ok with that too. I am going to get a gdoc appt and figure out whats up. I think too it could be the meds causing me to miss my ...monthly...so far for ten days anyway. (sorry if theirs guys reading this lol)
i really just want to say thank you to all of you who replied. I never thought id hear a response back as i felt my post made no sense. I will update ya when i find anything out. Thanks for the hugs  it made me smile and feel like someone out there really cares.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
