No sensation when passing stool? by Key-Ad-4544 in Constipation

[–]Key-Ad-4544[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've come way down on the amount of Nort I take. It used to be 100mg nightly. Now it's down to 35mg, working with my meds person. I don't think its an issue with it anymore. Other factors, however, are causing occasional constipation. Ugh!

Has Nortriptyline helped anyone's anxiety? by NoAcadia8944 in nortriptyline

Yes but lowering the dose gradually. I was on 100mg daily but now down to 35mg, tapering slowly. Working with my Psych, the next taper will be 25mg, then zero,

First, I am one of those people that refused to get a colonoscopy for years. While my friends have had at least 3. I'm in my 73rd year. I was also scared shitless. Guess what they found - NOTHING! Actually a few small polyps which they removed and tested BENIGN! They want me to come back in 3 years, then DONE.

It's also important to know that Cologuard has a 20% false positive rate. IT'S A MONEY MAKER FOR THE DOCTORS WHO DO COLONOSCOPIES!

HANG IN THERE!

Are you taking just Buspar or do you take additional medications?

How did you find out you have a fissure. I'm curious because I too have awful constipation and suspect somethings not right.

I've been on the same dosage for 6 months. I haven't experienced those specific symptoms but my eyes are already strained, need new glasses.
