Default Reboxetine (medication)

Hi all,

I've been suffering PCS for 3 or so years now without any improvement. I started taking Reboxetine approx. 3 months ago on a doctors recommendation.

The doctor suggested that since MRI and CT scans revealed nothing, my condition was purely anxiety-based and that Reboxetine would resolve matters.

Whilst the medication makes me feel slightly more alert and a bit more calm in general, it has certainly not helped my PCS symptoms. i.e. difficulty with cognition and speech, light and noise sensitivity, tingling in face and brain etc. These all remain the same.

I will be seeing the doctor again in a few weeks and wonder what his reaction will be. Whether he might finally accept that the problems are not completely anxiety-based or whether he will just suggest an increase in dosage or a different type of med. Probably the latter.

Things don't get better. At least for me.
