Hot Flashes Update
Hi Ladies, About a month ago I wrote for advise to deal with Hot Flashes while taking Letrozole and Ibrance and I wanted to give you an update. I saw my onc and she recommended that I begin taking Gabapentin which is an anti-seizure medication that is know to work with hot flashes. She mentioned that

Endocronologist appointment was bad
They said there's probably nothing wrong with me pretty much. They didn't take blood or anything even though my TSH levels always come out high in blood tests. They said any test they did take wouldn't have accurate results because of the effexor and buspar so I'd have to get off of those first. I want

Feel brain dead
Feel on the verge of passing out. Can't hold a conversation. Lightheaded. Can't remember anything. Brain fog. Hard to walk. Seeing my primary care physician tomorrow and an endocronologist a few days after that. Hopefully they find something. If not I guess it's the effexor. And if it's not the effexor

Straterra vs Adderall XR
Has anyone taken adderall xr and switched to straterra? I am terrified. I was taking Adderall XR 30mg twice a day and my doctor switched me to STRATTERA 60mg a day. The XR's were working great for me and im afraid it isnt going to work the same.

New Medication after Vyvanse?
Hello, I’m very new to this site. My son, now 23 was diagnosed with ADHD in the third grade. He successfully took Adderall XR for about 8 years (the last two of those years were a mess). He then was changed to Vyvanse 70 mg for the last 6 years. Although, there have always been struggles, the medication

Tightness in throat and chest with anxiety meds
I was wondering if anyone else has experienced tightness in their throat or chest with anxiety meds? I was very successful with Paxil for 20 years and all of a sudden it stopped working. I felt like someone was choking me and I couldn’t breathe. Thinking it was a medical issue, I had tons of testing

Feel like I may die
Im starting effexor and I feel terrible. I feel like I'm dying. I'm having a panic attack and cannot sleep because I'm positive if I sleep I will die. I'm dizzy and my face is hot and I have a sense of impending doom. I also keep waking up confused and even getting confused when I'm already awake. I

Has anyone had problems with their child’s medicine not showing up in urine test?
Long post but I’m confused and am just trying to see if this has happened to anyone else too! My 8 year old has been taking Focalin XR since Kindergarten and until this last month we have never had a problem with it showing up on his urine tests. He is now on a 20mg dose and I give it to him every day

Depression and drugs
Hubby was on Wellbutrin for years and rather than trying something new his doctor just kept increasing the antidepressant dosage. After CBD diagnosis we weaned hubby off of Wellbutrin and tried Effexor. His depression didn’t improve. Interesting though, when antidepressants were completely out of his

Efexor to Pristiq
Pumpkin, the doctor switched me to Pristiq about five years ago. The transition was great. He gradually moved be over. He lowered Efexor gradually and started me on Pristiq. I had no problems at all. I do know from experience that skipping doses of Pristiq will cause brain shivers. This occurrence
