> OK, I know I have posted this before, but did not get too much info. Has anybody gotten back unusual blood test results as the result of AD meds. specifically Wellbutrin? I am showing up as anemic,and am having fast pulse, shortness of breath, but no pallor or general malaise. Doc doesn't know any other cause as yet. I think it could be med related, or anxiety related. Any other thoughts? I have read the PDR on Wellbutrin.

Hi Pax,I just started (the 2nd trial) of WB (as an adjunct with other meds for BPII, SAD, etc.) with good results, but at a much lower dosage than yourself and most others take. I definitely am experiencing an increased resting HR, but so far no significant BP elevation, etc.
You mentioned an objective test indicating anemia?
FWIW, bupropion, is the only AD I have taken that has significantly decreased my appetite-especiallly appetite for proteins (pork, chicken, beef, etc.). I wonder if perhaps this might be medication induced nutritional deficits??Mitch
