The good news is that I have been having some windows of good days for the last 2 weeks as far as my pain goes, but I have had some med changes so I wanted to run it by all my experts here and see your thoughts:

First- I just started taking Diflucan 200mg for the last 2 days for a yeast inf.- although the symptoms weren't vaginal, they were in the other nether region, sorry everyone...

Today- I had a marked change in how I have been feeling lately to back to crummy- really tired, no energy, dizzy, foggy headed

I have been decreasing my topomax from 200mg to 50mg over the last couple of weeks b/c it wasn't seeming to work for my pain and i was having side effects (hair loss)

I started taking cytomel 5mcg b/c my reverse T3 was elevated- I think I feel better in terms of energy, I have already lost weight, but I might be having some anxiety from it...

I have been feeling good and hopeful about these windows but feeling really bad now and don't know what to do for it- detox bath, supplements, etc.

Any thoughts, suggestions, could the diflucan be making me feel this bad?

Oh, and I forgot to add I stopped taking my long acting pain medicine. I was supposed to start taking nucynta er from oxycontin er when the patch failed but my pain has been manageable with the percocets so maybe that is a contributor - a little withdrawal..

Hi Shadow,

Difflucan made me feel pretty sick in the past. Sometimes it happens, sometimes not.
My dr didn't warn me about it, but my pharmacist did. It puts a rather big burden on the liver. And since we are already 'abusing' our liver with the Lyme treatment, it can get much for your liver.
It makes me feel like I'm moving/living in a thick soupe or so... if you understand what I'm trying to describe.
She said to take it when necessary, but no longer than needed.

I don't know about the painmeds though...
