Escitalopram Created a horrible day...
I took my first 5 mg dose of Escitalopram (
lexapro
) today. It was horrible. I got extremely dizzy, sick At my stomach, my heart started racing, and I felt like i was going to die. I went to the er and they told me it was an allergic reaction. Has anyone had a similar experience?

How long does this weirdess last? I take ativan to control it but I feel like I'll get addicted to that. Today I woke up at 5am and felt like I might forget to breath, I was afraid to fall asleep in case I would stop breathing, has that happened to anyone? Any thoughts for how long before I'll just feel

Is anyone on this regime?
Lexapro
. Prednisone. Micardis. Ostilin..ferra-grad C. Codeine Phosphate. If you know of this combination or parts of it, does it go up and up, or does it plateau. Is there any remission with Systemic Vasculitis? Any help would be warmly welcomed.

I learned that anti-depressants make it worse so I reluctantly gave up
Lexapro
. Not only do anti-depressants make RLS worse; they also make you fat by seriously increasing your cravings for carbohydrates. AND when I am miserable with RLS, I eat to try to feel better.

My cholestrol just back from GP is 6, my diet is good w regular exercise. Last blood test 2 years ago was 5.4. I'm curious why the increase?
Can stress or medication (
lexapro
) be a factor to cholesterol?

Thesme's adventures in sobriety
It turns out that
lexapro
and red wine is even more sedative, so I carried on. Finally though I got sick of the boozing. I want to get fit and stay fit and not rely on alcohol. So, under the supervision of a clinical psychologist, a therapist and my GP, I set yesterday as my quit day.
