In the last 2 years I have taken Prozac and then Lexapro 20mg. Recently Wellbutrin 150xl was added. I've gained about 25 pounds which I feel like is making me more depressed. Will the Wellbutrin help...
Thank you, the adjustment period is hard. Being on Lexapro alone has caused me to gain over 20 pounds. It really bums me out. I just don't need that on top of everything else. I'm thinking of...
Hi, I have struggled with depression for as long as I can remember, but what I'm experiencing now seems to be on a whole new level. It was recently the anniversary of my child's death. I know that is...
I know, I'm an idiot. My husband and I left in a hurry and I forgot my bottles of hydro and soma. Housekeeping came in when we were gone and needless to say, my meds were gone when we returned....
Thanks for the reply. Yeah, I do have the UC well controlled now and am on a low maintenance dose of lialda. My thyroid, iron, and vit D are fine. I haven't been on steroids for quite some time but I...
I do have a rheumatologist appointment in about a month. He doesn't have good reviews, but apparently there is a shortage of them here so I had to take what I could get. : (I'm so tired of feeling so...
Does a rheumatologist ever figure out what's going on quickly? Or, should I just plan on it taking months or years since I haven't gotten in yet? :( Do they take your word for it regarding rashes...
I'm waiting (possibly months) to get in to see a rheumatologist. In the meantime, I have been referred to a hematologist/oncologist which is obviously scary. This is due to "concerning blood work...
Yeah, I am nervous and unsure about it. I'm honestly afraid to even ask. From what I understand 99% of PM doctors are against MM even though studies show that there are fewer overdose deaths in...
Thanks, after reading through that I do have at least 4 of the 11 symptoms and am scared. I do have ulcerative colitis though, would that cause a positive ANA??? I can't get in to see a...
Hi, I'm new here and have many symptoms of lupus. I'm trying to get in to see a rheumatologist. I've been having a lot of health problems for some time. I do have ulcerative colitis and a lot of...
I have been in pain management for over 2 years now and have gained about 30 pounds. Has anyone else experienced this? I'm wondering if it's a common side effect or a coincidence.......
Thank you. That's really helpful. I'm nervous about going out of town. I'm not sure if MM will work for me during the day or not either, but there are options that have very little THC so it doesn't...
I'm switching from Vicodin (about 80mgs a day or so) to Dilaudid. Will I go through withdrawal? I know it's actually a stronger opiate, but I'm very concerned about withdrawal because I'm getting...
Thank you, I actually did go to counseling every week for over 6 months. I do have multiple medical problems so I figured using MMJ would at least not cause the type of problems that opiates can...
Thank you. When you say have my doctor on board, do you mean pain management doctor? Because as far as I know 99% of them are opposed to medical marijuana. They have no problem providing me with...
I have multiple legitimate reasons for being prescribed opiates and I don't know how I'll function without, but I need to stop. I want to switch to medical marijuana and it is legal in my state. I'm...
