Morning everyone....

[london-man]

I slept for longer last night, woke with strong anxiety...i'm off to the docs soon about my back pain, I was wondering, should I ask the doc to up my citalopram dose, he put me on 20mg about a week ago and ive been taking zopiclone to help me sleep xxx

HI LM

You might have already gone to the docs as I am writing this , up late , but due to going to bed late I feel lol

Well while you are already at the Docs you could mention how you feel about the meds , there will be no harm in that & see what they have to say , i would , i never go to the GP with one thing , i always have a little list , i think I might as well get my monies worth while I am here

Sorry you woke up feeling anxious , quite a few do , I am sure once you get the meds in your system this will start to get better

Hope everything goes ok

Love

Hi WhyWhy, just got back from the docs, he's my new doc...a really nice man, he wants to to reduce the dose of Zopiclone, he wasnt keen on me taking them for a month as they are addictive, he advised me to cut the dose down to half and stop using them in a week, next thursday i go back to see him and he is going to double the dose of cipramil to 40mg xxx

Glad you asked then LM

Sounds like a plan there , I no you might have to feel worse before you feel better , usually the case , but hope you can see that light at the end of the tunnel

Hi,

Glad the doctor was some help

I woke up feeling ok but seem have encountered nothing but waves of anxiety since I started going out and about. I'm having to work v hard on my breathing to keep settling myself. Hopefully it'll wear off on the way to work!!!

Hope you have a good afternoon.

Love

Hi Lizard, I feel much better since seeing the doc, i have been taking my citalopram in the morning instead of before bed!...bit of a mistake but easily corrected. Hope your day goes well and thanx for your concern xxx
