New to forum - struggling big time

@Doglover I had terrible side effects from a couple of meds - one in particular that made me feel so bad that I went back so far that I nearly landed in hospital. That med I had to stop immediately. So I understand the effects meds can have on us. I do have meds to help with the side effects of other meds but the combination works for me now. It really is trial and error with the amount of different meds available it did take a long time for us to get the right meds and combinations/dosages right but we do have it right now. I hope it doesn't take you as long as it did for me Hon.

Considering how this med has affected you your pdoc should not be angry with you - they need to find something else to try and hope that works. There really are a lot of meds out there that can help - it is finding the right one(s) that can help you.

It is good that you have found us here to share yiur journey and get some support ...and happy to walk that journey with you. Keep connecting with us here - it does make a little difference to be amongst people that understand and although it is a tough road for you - you are not alone

Thank you for your support @Zoe7 , yes it is a tough road, tougher than i could ever have imagined having to go through! I know you and many others have been through the same or worse! But it is a lonely road. Every moment of the day seems to be 'in my head', just constantly focused on me and this horrible situation and the fact that i just cant see a way out. My husband has lost his happy, loving and fun loving wife, and i feel like ive lost my life.

There's a particular reason why i feel so stuck, like there's no way out. Im going to do another post and will tag you and others that have responded to other posts in.

Thanks again for your support @Zoe7 . Wish i cld give you a big hug to say thanks.

Cyber hugs most welcome here @Doglover Here's one for you too...

Gratefully accepted back @Doglover 💛🧡💙💜💚
