change in meds
dear friends
because my shrink would like me to try Zoloft
i was first on Prozac
then found my cancer
it not compatible with my cancer drug tamoxifen
so shrink puts me on lexepro
this put me in a very dark dangerous place
mentally
stop the drug
it has been a little over 2 years
that i have been on tamoxifen
my mental status is in much turmoil
my session yesterday
i asked my doctor after being with him
for 5 years now
what is it he sees
he feels i suffer from several forms
of depression
most importantly he feels it is
genetically in my genes
situation l depression
not having a partner
sad circumstances
so
reminding him i was on tamoxifen
and certain drugs interfere with it
Zoloft being one of them
my oncologist had started me on
Femara i take generic of this drug
i will be on it for the next 5 years
this drug i take once a day 2.5 mg
does work with Zoloft
i told my shrink
i want to get well
i do not want to feel this way anymore
i need peace in my life
therefore
i will try Zoloft
it will be 50 mg for three weeks
then 100 mg
once a day
my daughter Sareaeve with me at doctor
appointments
who is on Zoloft for a number of years
recommended me to give it a go
reluctant to add yet another drug in my system
is upsetting
this drug will be long term
i pray it helps
the Femara is a strong estrogen preventive drug
and because my cancer was estrogen driven it be the
reason for the change
it was time
i was told i may experience pain in my hands
something i already suffer from
hair loss
nausea
bla bla bla
do read you pamphlet for important information
to my fellow men and women
please please get your mammograms
men you are NOT exempt
i hope this helps
for those who follow my story
still having a hard time forgiving my
surgeon
took him tow years to admit
my left side developed a double bubble
from the very beginning
just sucks he did not have the nerve to explain that
my oncologist had me go back to him even he knows there was something wrong
maybe on day
i will have to work on many
doctors to did me wrong
and in the end did more harm than good
this be my experience
you all be very careful
and never just settle
especially when YOU know there is something
WRONG
very wrong
write everything down as you are going through it
and always have a advocate with you
my last three times out of my home to either going to
the doctors or some other important place i have incurred
$250.00 in parking tickets on we are fighting having tapes pulled about said location
point i haven't been involved in the way of the
changes that have taken place
just in the last 4 years out of work
not out in the world
the parking rules have become a way for the cities to really rack up the bucks
$39.00 improper parking
i backed up into parking spot that had a meter
$49.00 bus stop
missed the sign blockage of tree
just unbelievable
$110.00 bus stop
i was in the car
unbelievable
all i want is peace
and love to all
hope for the world
