Hi meg

Great to see you back , not so great you are not feeling so good

I think we can panic about side effects of meds , well I do & that can make us feel we have side effects , but if you are in any doubt , ask your GP

I hope now you have found your way back , you wont be a stranger , missed you

Love

Agree with Whywhy.

If you read through the leaflet anxiety and depression are probably potential side-effects of prozac - just can't remember back to when I read it.

Asprin can cause headaches and my migraine medication can cause migraines.

things just affect different people in different ways. If you are concerned and the funny symptoms persis then go back to the GP.

Hope I haven't made you even more paranoid

Hello meg

So long since I was on Prozac I'm struggling to remember but I do know when I'm feeling really low I find myself doing lots of deep sighing, whether on meds or off. In fact when I realise that I'm sighing that's when I look more closely at how I'm feeling, if that makes sense.

If you are worried or distressed by anything you think may be a side effect of course ask your gp.

Sorry if that's not much help,

Hope it eases soon

Prozac like any medication can have side effects. Unfortunately they didn't work for me, but for others they have been helpful. I was wondering why you have gone back on them? Was this recommended by your GP. I presume they were beneficial to you the first time?

Hi, I'm on Prozac too. It's 20mg. I have side effects but it will subside.

I couldn't take prozac as I had some nasty side effects. My doctor changed it to sertroline which I find much better. Hope you are feeling a bit better now Meg.
