Toxic Serotonin Syndrome or narcotic reaction?

Posted by Po_thang on February 26, 2002, at 15:51:38

My Doc tapered my meds Serzone, Elavil and Ativan for 3 days then started Celexa and Xanax. I had been on those meds for four years. On the second day of Celexa (I also have neuropothy pain) took an oxycodone and had uncontrollable shaking within 10 mins. and ended up in ER, dilated pupils, could not talk, could not make legs move was released after 6 hours. Now off all meds cold turkey except Ativan. Did I have Toxic Serotonin Syndrome or bad reaction to oxycodone? I'm not getting an answer from my Doc. I'm very sensitive to meds and Serzone is the only one I had never reacted too. Even the Elavil caused insomnia. Any advice? I am also having anti-depressant withdrawals, how long is this going to last?
