I don't know what to do. I've been given Strattera to try and I was looking at past posts about this med and I am scared to take it.
I don't want to get into my appt. with the psychopharmacologist but basically he looked at my 6 page spreadsheet of meds and combos tried and he only suggested two things. Strattera and ECT. That's it. He said he never seen anyone try so many different meds and combos before.
I'm never going to have ECT no matter what anyone says. Never.
So now I have Strattera and that's it. I'm scared it's going to knock me out. I'm already so tired that I can't afford to have that happen. It seems like more people experienced tiredness than anything else on this med.
My pdoc says he thinks I suffer from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome because I get sudden onset viral infections a lot and my muscles ache and I get a slight fever.
Personally I think I have candida. I took Diflucan a couple of weeks ago for a yeast infection and I felt a little better for a couple of days. Less exhausted. Now the damn thing is back!
I can't do this!
