my doc wasn't aware of my wanting off all, but i had left three messages for him and he never called back so not my fault. i was/am in SUCH pain, i was going to try on my own.
he finally called back last night. he wan'ts to try "something different" first. so he got me an appt friday and we'll talk.HOWEVER, after a week ago he doubled my geodon and that was HORRRRRRRRIBLE and i couldn't get ahold of him so i lowered it back myself, then he called last night and said go off completely. so last night i didn't take any.
today i'm having intermitant hotflashes and extreme cold chills BUT not a single Suicidal Visual. and only a couple thoughts but not much.
so that's helped already.
the wellbutrin is doing nothing, so that's next.
and he now wants to Double the Topomax instead of take me off it. so we might go round and round...he and therapist both wanted me in the hospital. and if i had the money i'd a been there. but i'm broke. so i HAVE to try to tough this out.
thanks for the help.
