Drug toxicity -- memory problems?

Posted by Bookgurl99 on May 25, 2002, at 10:19:24

So, as most know I've been having memory and cognition (can't think as much/fast as I used to) problems for 3 months. I'm 26 years old, so this cannot be age related.

Standard Western medicine has runa variety of tests and concludes that the problem is psychological.

Recently I visited a naturopathic physician (with a degree from a real naturopathic college, not one of the mail-in catalogues) who believes that my problem stems from drug toxicity . She believes that the antidepressant Serzone, which I was on for two years previous to these problems appearing, built up in my system to toxic levels.

Warning signs? In January (before problem started), I was having digestive troubles and extreme exhaustion. I was also becoming increasingly irritable. Then in late February, dasys before I noticed that my memory was blown, I was vomiting and having migraine for unknown reasons.

Does this sound like a reasonable/unreasonable explanation to anyone?

My memory/cognition problems showed up quite suddenly -- so suddenly that I find it hard to believe it's an anxiety problem. I think the anxiety stems from dealing with a physical problem that Western medicine can't solve.
