About a week ago I had a moment of confusion, not knowing what I was doing for about a minute. Also, I had a spell of dizziness where I had to hold onto the wall to walk several weeks ago. My gdoc had me get an mri, and it came back normal.
Now I wonder if any of my meds, a combo I have been on for approximately 6 months, might have caused these spells. The psych drugs I take are lamictal (200mg), zoloft (100mg), wellbutrin (300 mg), and klonopin (1.5 mg) Has anyone experienced any similar symptoms on any of these drugs? Btw, I am glad that my problems are not a physical ones! Bluemountains |

I imagine that ANY of them could be doing it or at least contributing or interacting with the variety of drugs and effects you are taken. It's hard to judge.
Or heck, you could be dehydrated. Hard to say.

I agree with Odee, could be any of your meds/combos causing that. I have to be careful if I get up to quick my blood pressure bottoms out and I have to catch a wall or chair or something. Hows your blood sugars? I know that can cause some of the same issues.
I am very glad your MRI came back clean

I'm not sure about my blood sugars, but my blood pressure is good. Oh well, maybe it's one of those hormonal things. You're right-who knows?

I've had similar reactions when starting a new med (which I quickly stopped taking). I'm not sure if the combination of meds you're on would do this, as that might be an interaction.
I've also had high anxiety/panic attacks that have made me feel dizzy. |

I am glad your MRI is normal.
Your blood pressure is usually normal, but you do not measure it continuously. The dizziness spell might have been due to a temporary drop in it. |
