Ugh, side effects on the Brintellix, on the 5 mg she was fine, a week into this and weird side effect, itching. It is more then itching, if she gets overly warm, exerts herself, the room becomes warm she feels like fire ants are eating at her skin on her back. From the neck to her low waist it will only calm down if she goes out in the snow and frigid temps.

It was reduced to 5mg again after a day or so breather. It is helping her, but the 5 mg isn't as helpful and the 10 mg side effect is too much for her. Her aqua therapy PT this week had to cancelled because of the overly warm room and heated pool.

Going to get through the weekend with the 5 mg til Monday and call back again. It is a shame because it was working well and no clue what to go to next. I have to look at her enzyne test and see which were recommended.
She went off Lexapro because of crazy weight gain. 40 lbs in 14 months.
No diet change or less activity???
