Went to Doctor

Hi all, I posted on the roll call that I had been feeling like dog poopie and I went to my PCP on Tuesday and they are running some blood work. I should get the result back by the end of the week. I take all of my vitamins religiously so I should not be deficient but I tend to run low on iron even with taking double dose of the supplemants. I also talked to them about the strange feeling I was getting in my chest and head every few minutes and apparently it was panic attacks! Low and behold I did not need this too. It is from going off my Paxil that they have been doing for the past three weeks and should be short term but none the less a little disconcerting! I got yet another perscription and took one pill and felt worlds better in just a few hours. I have not had that feeling agian since yesterday. All of this is making me rethink the switch from Paxil to Welbutron. I was not aware of the process to go off of this type of medication and am not too pleased that I have had to go thru all of this. Funny that the doctors do not tell you when they write you the perscription that you will go thru hell getting off of the medication. Sorry long winded again. I will update everyone when I get the test results back. Thanks for all of the concern everyone. Tanya

I plan on going to my doctor too... i am having hip pain, mainly in the middle of the night waking me up out of a sleep and in the morning. If I sit too long it's bad too. I am also pretty tired all the time. If I push myself, I am not so tired (if I'm moving around). But, I want to make sure nothing is wrong. I've noticed that my right hand is swollen each morning too.. weird. So, I'm calling today to make an appointment... bad thing is that I need to take off work to go. Good Luck with your blood work.. hope everything is okay. Pam

Keep us posted on your doctor appt Pam. I pray that all is well. Tanya -113
