Hey Anna I don't mind your post being long. I found it interesting.
Zoloft is not generally known for cognitive decline. It is the best SSRI in terms of cognitive function, probably due to its 'relatively' stronger action on dopamine than other SSRIs. Wellbutrin on the other hand has been linked with cognitive decline. Why? No clue. That's just what I've seen in literature. Of everything you are taking, I would suspect Zoloft the least. I don't know of any other way to pinpoint which drug is at fault other than withdrawing them one at a time to see what difference each makes.
Tremors as well as cognitive decline are both related to dopamine deficiency. They could be related. Just a wild hunch. I wouldn't know how to approach treatment of that. Perhaps Selegiline in a 5mg - 10mg range. It would be nice to have a doctor with a little more interest wouldn't it? It just seems to me the tremors and memory loss are indeed related.
Hey, I know the perfect cure for you!.....ummmm....wait a minute....damn....can't remember what I was gonna say.......forgot. :) JohnL
