Hi Everyone, Sorry I haven't been posting much, life is hectic, but I do read the posts on here, I just haven't answered any. Things are going great for me, Anxiety and Panic are gone, I'm still on...
I take Metoprolol ER for my heart, and I also take clonazepam. When I first started the beta blocker, I felt weird, probably that's when I had my first panic attack. I've been on them for over a year...
I take the beta blocker, Metoprolol ER for Left Bundle Branch Block, when I first started taking it, I felt all funky on it, but now after almost a year and a half I have no sides with it. I also...
That's too bad that Melatonin does that to you. I also am on Prozac and have taken melatonin for years and have never had any reaction to it. Possibly it was the 5mg, but I think everyone's body acts...
Yes, it can and does go away. I had anxiety in the 1995 really bad, I was afraid to leave the house, go to the store. The only time I felt in control outside my home was when I was driving, go...
Welcome CinLou, I have no stories to tell except that Healing Well is a very supportive site. I wish your husband and you the best, and you'll find a lot of support on here. I'm on the anxiety board,...
Hi and Welcome Wingo, Yes, I've been through my Dr misdiagnosed me, to the point, where I was calling there daily and he finally called me and told me, you have a strong heart, you're not going to...
I think a lot of it was we were doing so much renovation on our house that I didn't have time to dwell on me. After that, I think I forgot about the negative thoughts. When I got a weird pain, I was...
Hello Fellow Anxiety Sufferers, First off I want to apologize for not being on here in forever. My anxiety is totally gone, with the help of my meds of course but nonetheless I have not had any fear...
Hi AngelLisa, I take 20 MG Prozac once a day and .5 Clonazepam 2 times a day and a little quarter of it before I go to bed. My anxiety is what I would consider gone. I haven't had a anxiety attack in...
To Kitt: You were such a inspiration to all of us. You always took the time out to make us feel better, even when you felt so bad yourself. You'll live on in the hearts of everyone who loved you. I...
Reading this has made me very sad :cry:. A part of me always was hoping and praying that our dear Kitt would be able to fight this battle and come out smiling like the champ she is. I can only hope...
Yes, it's very common, stop, slow down, take very deep breaths to slow your heart down. Then calm down and try not to think about breathing, when you think about it, it makes it worse. If you can,...
Congrats on your big steps pooldrops! As for the unbalanced steady feeling, I still get it occasionally. I started out on Lexapro, but really felt not right on it, so my Dr switched me back to...

Deborah, I never noticed tiredness as a s/e of Lipitor, probably because I'm always tired :tongue: I would continue to take it, and if the side effects persist, contact your Dr. But really they...
I've been on Lipitor for over a year and the only thing I notice is sore muscles...I do not think it will cause anxiety. You're probably thinking about it because it's a new pill and that is causing...

Hi Leea, Have you spoken to your Dr about what is happening at the gym? Panic is a vicious cycle and your mind can provoke so many unwanted thoughts. It does sound like anxiety that you're...

Hi Help Needer and Welcome.. You should be able to be on a anti-depressant and clonazepam. I have been on both for over a year and am feeling great on them. There are many great resources on here,...

Hello. I myself haven't been on either. But I can say for me, when my pharmacy switched manufacturers of my Prozac, I did notice. Luckily my pharmacy ordered in my normal brand and all was good. Find...

Hello, 6 months ago or so, I had major heart health anxiety, it was to the point, when every time I had a twinge I was having the "big one' I did have a heart health scare last Sept and that...
Hello, I'm sorry your going through a rough patch with your med increase. Why not just call your Dr tomorrow and let him/her know what's going on. It will ease your mind, especially if it's something...
It sounds to me like anxiety, not angina. I used to have heart health anxiety, my chest area always hurt. My Dr and Pharmacist told me that I was holding myself so tense that it was creating my...
Hi to all! Sorry I haven't been posting. I have been keeping myself very busy. Painting the whole inside of the house, stripped, sanded, stained the front doors and putting new hardwood floors in...
Are you doing the withdrawal with the help of a Dr.? You really have to be careful of how you do it, and your Dr is best to help you with it. When I started to taper my clonazepam down, I was using...
Hi Ian, Welcome to HW, sorry you're here for the problems you're having. I'm sure there are members here that can give you better advice than I can, but have you tried the deep breathing exercises?...
Sorry Connie about all the stuff you're going through, most definitely if you're overwhelmed and stressed, it could call you panic and anxiety. Some (like me) have had them for less. You can always...
When I tore the tendon's in my arm, my Dr prescribed me a cream, it's a prescription called Voltaren Cream. I had the pain from Nov till Feb. Once I started using the cream, and I had to use 2 tubes...

Hope everyone is feeling better SC. Glad you didn't get it also. :yeah:...
Hi Connie, If it was a panic attack, the effects of it can last for many many hours. I would contact your Dr and get a check up. Panic manifests itself in many different ways for different people. If...
