I am not on a lot of meds. Not Zanaflex, Lyrica or anything like that. I take 225mg of Effexor for depression and panic. I take T3's for pain, and the Dr. has me also on amitriptyline for the nerve pain. None of it works, but as I am heading into surgery hopefully soon he is reluctant to put me on anything stronger.
Now, having said all of that.... Since I was injured and have started taking all of these meds I have gained about 40lbs, and my sex drive has gone completely away. I find that between my husband not wanting to hurt me and feeling so exhausted from the pain we have almost no sex life at all.
It is frustruating for both of us. I worry constantly that he is going to end up finding it elsewhere. He asures me that that is not true. He always jokes that between me, the kids, the house and yard where would he find the time or energy.
My feeling is that if I could lose the weight I wouldn't feel quite as crappy all of the time, and then maybe there would be a chance.
