Topamax, Wellbutrin.. others! 2 many Rx's?

Posted by Luddy on July 6, 2004, at 12:34:26

Where do I start?

I'm on 50mg. of Topamax for Migraines.
150mg. of Wellbutrin XL for depression, although my Dr. thinks I would do better @ 300mg.
I'm also on Chromagen, a high-dose Iron supplement for anemia.
Plus, my wonderful Seasonale birth control pill.

I feel like a total drug addict. I'm constantly taking pills. And just wanted to know if anybody was also taking a combinations of these drugs also.

I don't have 1/2 the # of migraines I used to have. YEA!! Been on topamax since Feb. 2004.
But the depression (which I feel is mild to moderate-depending on the day) is not getting better. I started on Wellbutrin only 3 weeks ago. Same as the Chromagen. I guess another question would be...How long does the WB take? When will I start to feel better?

I'm constantly tired-but yet I can't actually sleep, always thirsty, no appetite what-so-ever. And this is MAJOR coming from a 100% sugar addict! No motivation, just want to stay in bed all day. I'm ignoring my friends, ignoring my husband...sniff sniff. Crap! I'm not here for sympathy at all.

I thought I might be have a Hypothyroid, but when I was tested it came back @ 136. I was told to take Milk Thistle. Geez....another pill???!!!!

I'm just confused that my Dr. (who has been rated 1 of the best in the city for years) would prescribe all these pills for me.

Anybody else in the same boat?
