KayJay,
I often wonder if the amount of time I was on these drugs has resulted in some of my physical issues or if some of it would have occurred on it's own anyway...symptoms began with an awareness of tingling in hands up into arms less that 3 months after getting off the anti-depressants and got worse from there(I was on Serzone for a few months when I decided that anti-depressants weren't an option for me anymore.)Possible coincidence? I don't know.
The fact is that I can find no long term studies at this point in this journey to info. My doctors are stumped to a certain extent...many blood and other diagnostic tests have shown nothing remarkable.
I am amazed at how little info I can find on the net about this.I am going to try to look at some medical journals.
Mostly, I am still hoping that eventually these symptoms will wear off the further I get from the time that I took those drugs. 10 years is a lot of time-maybe my body just got too used to them?
Good luck.
