Vision problems, increase medication?

I am just wondering about a couple things, my anxiety has been fairly high since January, I started on 10 mg of Prozac and this seemed to keep me functional for awhile, but never anxiety free. I plateaued for a bit before having another increase in anxiety symptoms which has prevented me from working. Five weeks ago we increased Prozac to 20mg and the same thing happened, I could function better( not work though) at least I wasn't house bound, however was still having physical anxiety symptoms that were exhausting in and off but manageable, stayed like that for awhile and then BOOM! Increased anxiety and panic, changing physical symptoms, black spots in my eyes for a few seconds, etc! Lots of visual disturbances. Doctor wants me to increase to 30 mg of Prozac and I am nervous to do that. Any opinion on the increase and or my symptoms. As always I am confused as to how all these physical symptoms can be related to anxiety, even though I have read all about it. Of course I think the meds are makings worse, but deep down I know this is anxiety thinking! Anyways, sorry this is sooo long just need some direction
Cheers to you all! Together we will conquer this confusing, disabling thing they call anxiety!

Thanks S.C. I will trust and give it a go. I will try to up my dose tonight.

Have you ever had or heard of the visual problems with anxiety? It's freaking me out and seems to come from nowhere, like when I'm shopping and not worried about anything

see the eye doc. I am vision impaired, and it was the creeper that got me. diabetes. not saying you have will or a going to get diabetes, but things get out of shape (pardon the pun) with our eyes, esp with aging.

Hi

I had to go upto 60mg Prozac but everyone is different I hope the increase helps you keep us posted.

Do you know if when you increase your dose you adjust faster? I am on day three of 30mg and I had my first anxiety free day yesterday it was amazing! Even had an anxiety free shower!!!!! Such a blessing, I am not sure if my dose increase has anything to do with it as it seems to soon!

Hi

Yes you should settle on an increase much quicker than a start up.

Keep us posted.
