What was it?
> I was doing fine on l0mg of paxil and xanax and the nightly beer.
Ok. Let's remember that.
> But the pdoc I worked with called my pdoc cause she couldn't believe he let me drink on xanax.
So, the doctors then proceeded to fix things.
> So in the hospital when they adjusted my synthroid he said let me try something else. He gave me a first dose of 50mg of luvox. I sat there waiting for side effects.
Why did you do that? Most people don't sit in a doctor's office waiting for side effects after taking the first dose. Was this at your request?
> So next time he saw me because I was simply relaxed with arm on the back of the chair he said I was catatonic and needed off luvox and on celexa.
I can't believe this.
> So all the other meds were tried and luvox was the only one I could tolerate and not afraid of.
Why are you afraid of meds?
> I haven't been on a high dose in 9 years or so.
Like I said, either do it now or don't do it at all.
Is it fair to say that you think it is possible that Luvox would work again if the dosage was raised to 300mg?
I guess one of the things you should do is to get your thyroid checked. Are you still taking synthroid?
