Hospital trip

It's been one hell of an exhausting day. I had a very bad reaction to the increased dosage of Lexapro and had to undergo many labs and tests and scans today to check for lasting damage. Luckily I'm in the clear with only a rapid heart rate and mild flutter, no internal damage and no severe anaphylactic reactions. I'm going back down to 5mg but they said to expect some nasty withdrawal symptoms for a few days after doing that. Hoping it'll go easy on me. Love to all <3 !

onelittlerose, I am so sorry you experienced that. I'm glad you are going to be okay but it sounds like it will be a little rough for a while. Wishing you better days ahead. Feel better soon. My thoughts are with you. Hugs, Agora1 xx

Hi onelittlerose,

Thanks for sharing the news with us - bad luck that the dose change didn't work for you. It's a good thing you sort medical help and you know what to expect.

Keeping everything crossed for you :)
