I'm seeing a new GYN on Wed who specializes in endoctrinology, and besides a list of my symptoms, does anyone have any suggestions on what tests are best to have done, and what questions to ask? I'm having severe PMDD/PMS...the depression/anger/instability I feel during the 2 weeks prior to my period are different from my BPII symptoms, and are getting intolerable. I'm 40, and I'm sure my body is going through some changes.....
I already take Effexor XR 300mgs, and just started Zonegran (mood stabilizer) 25mg. I've tried an anti-psychotic for the PMDD (seroquel) - no luck...and I don't really want to add any more drugs to this particular cocktail, (of the psychiatry kind, anyway...)
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, and maybe it will help some others too, because I've read quite a few posts from others having this same problem!
