Just saw my GP before my pdoc appointment. Apparently I have Coccydynia and he's also arranging for me to be tested for sleep apnea.
Then I saw my pdoc. As I'm not getting a whole lot of benefit from Paxil, he wants me to drop my dose to 20 mg. from 30 and is adding Alertec as I am not getting any response from Ritalin.
I'm retrying old meds that worked, hence the Paxil and I think he doesn't want to try an increase as that's what I was on when I had my first prolonged mania.
Right now I'm not too badly depressed but very, very tired. It's not that I don't have interest in doing things..I'm so unfocused it takes me forever to get a task done. Add to that all the issues that come from fibromyalgia and now the Coccydynia, I'm avoiding anything that's going to raise my pain level.
Any thoughts about the drop in Paxil and adding the Alertec.
Sorry to ramble!
