Warning!! Take heed!!(long)

Today is the first day in weeks I feel normal. 2 trips to the ER and we still have no idea what is wrong. I have more testing on the 27th. Apparently, stomach Dr. put me on Levsin, which had a bad interaction with my psycho meds, and I was hangin up Christmas decorations, stood up from a kneeling position, looked at mike and said I have "fuzzy tv vision" and passed out standing up to the hard wood floor and mike paniced and took me to the ER(2nd time). Mental note to any of you out there that are on any type of antidepressants or anxiety meds. DO NOT TAKE Levsin(Hyoscyamine sublingual) I specifically took a list of all the meds and vitamins I'm taking to the stomach Dr. and she gave me the Levsin anyway. http://www.pdrhealth.com/drugs/rx/rx-mono.aspx?contentFileName=Lev1223.html&contentName=Le vsin&contentId=302 Go there and you will see all of the warnings that no one told me about. I couldn't figure out why I was staring at the walls, not remembering, having blurry vision, tingly top of head, getting violently ill vomiting, and last but not least, I developed a twitch. I was twitching so bad in my sleep it would wake me up 5-6 times a night. So with that, I've been taking days off of work because my vision was so bad, I was afraid to drive, my eyes were not normal...I couldn't figure out what was going on, untill I told my psych dr something is not right. With that, I also had no idea that I would be losing weight rather rapidly. I thought it was because I quit drinking. However, when that stupid Dr. put me on the Levsin about 3 weeks ago, I lost 8 pounds. That is not normal. It is not normal I've lost 22 pounds since July 24th. The bonus to this is, I weighed in at 142 pounds this morning. I haven't weighed that much since 5th grade. The unbonus to this is, I am repulsed by my excess skin. Sorry I've been incognito.... I know everyone is different with absorption and reactions to drugs, but I'd rather you know than not know. Please go read that site I put up because I know with all of us being banded or rny'd or are deciding to do this, you could potentially be put on this med due to stomach cramping. ps-Rhonda 116 days pss-Jeffy, I miss you.

Praying for you Lizzie I hope the test reveal the cause for your problems. Sending you a big hug. Tricia
