A classic case
of presriptionpaddia overdoneia...
If you are taking all those you are badly in need of someone to take charge of all that. The suggestion to go to the Mayo folks and get somebody to coordinate all of it is a good one. Just the oxycontin is a big red flag. Addictive as hell. Big time. And the SSRIs can be very bad news when you try to stop them too. Some folks need many months to back off them.
