>HI DC, CANT SAY YOU DID NOT GIVE IT A FAIR SHOT. ARE YOU STARTING THE ZOLOFT WHILE YOUR WEANING OFF THE LEX. OR ARE YOU WEANING OFF THE LEX FIRST. JUST CURIOUS BECAUSE I READ MANY PLACES WHERE IF YOU GET TO MUCH SEROTONIN IT CAN CAUSE DEPRESSION. IF YOUR WEANING OFF THE LEX FIRST, LIKE I SAID YOU MIGHT GET LUCKY AS YOU GO DOWN IN DOSE. BUT IF YOUR STARTING ZOLOFT AT THE SAME TIME WE ALL WISH YOU LUCK. BUT THE ZOLOFT QUESTION. MY HALF BROTHER SAME FATHER AND DIFFERENT MOTHER IS TAKING ZOLOFT. I TRIED IT AND HAD AN ALLERGIC REACTION. MY FATHER, BROTHER AND I LOOK A LIKE. BUT COULD NOT SAY OUR BLOOD TYPE IS THE SAME. BUT YOU WOULD THINK THAT IF YOUR BROTHER AND YOU HAD SIMILAR DNA AND BLOOD TYPE IT COULD BE POSSIBLE. BUT THEN AGAIN A LOT OF TIMES WHEN SOMEONE NEEDS AN ORGAN TRANSPLANT MOST OF THE FAMILY IS RULED OUT. I JUST WISH YOU THE BEST AND HOPE THE ZOLOFT ENDS YOUR DEPRESSION. CHECK BACK IN AND GIVE US DETAILS ON HOW YOUR COMING ALONG. GOD BLESS!!!!
