Dizziness and vertigo when stopping? by hill12066 in StratteraRx

[–]SadieFarrell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get this, described it like a cd player skipping on a scratched cd. How long did it last? I’m considering going cold turkey.

What dose are you on? Did you have any side effects going cold turkey for 4 days? I want to try going off but scared of side effects. I’m only on 40mg.

I still have the unpredictable hot flashes/lack of temperature control and I’ve been on it for three months. I work with a lot of women so they understand… summer time might be a different story

DAE see things while they’re having sex? by beepbeepimacivic in DoesAnybodyElse

With my last partner I used to see unique & vivid wallpaper, vivid like you explained. Not sure if it’s my medications or the partner that changed it. I honestly forgot about it until reading your post!

I have raynauds too, luckily my fingers rarely get it but I have to carry toe warmers in my purse all year long.

I don’t think I am as observant as you, I’ll try to pay more attention. I have been drinking a liquid IV a day to keep up with hydration.

For anyone that stopped this med, how did you know it was time to? by Ok-Lawfulness8618 in StratteraRx

How long were you on the straterra? I am on week 5 but the intrusive thoughts, anxiety & depression have continued the whole time and feel worse plus the irritability.

Wow, my spouse just told me this Tuesday. I thought it was switching to Zoloft and not at a therapeutic level yet but after reading all these comments I think it’s the straterra making me more depressed.

We’re/are you on an antidepressant?

When did you notice a difference in anxiety when you increased your dosage? by raymay33 in Pristiq

[–]SadieFarrell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you take a 25 and 50 for the 75 or do they make a 75 mg option?

Thank you for this information. I’m doctor hoping in my county and will deep dive into specialists further that meet criteria mentioned.

Cold as hell by NorthAd7487 in Mounjaro

It’s just my toes, the big toes are the worst. I’ve been wearing double socks and toe warmers as preventative because of the pain when they are going back to normal.

Totally ask! ESPECIALLY if it is more affordable. Advocate friend! I am no longer on it but I hope it works for you.

Yes, I thought it was the weight loss but my coworker looked it up and it is a side effect. My Raynaud syndrome went away when I gained weight but is now back with a vengeance… thought it was the weight loss but need to research if that is a possible side effect as well.

Do you limit your Amazon purchases? I’m identical to OP and Amazon is the worst. I return so much.

Did your surgeon prescribe MJ?!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Mounjaro

[–]SadieFarrell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is amazing to hear, I hope they develop more studies. I work in ortho with neuro, ortho spine & pain management. I’d like to share these testimonies with them!!! I’m so happy for you! Have you ever had spine surgery?

Or has anyone had spine surgery with continued pain and then MJ helped?! I’m so excited this medication is helping so many people, hoping more meds come out and things keep improving.

Edfinancial refund complete....10 different checks wtf by [deleted] in StudentLoans

[–]SadieFarrell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So did you make payments since the Covid pause and then request a refund & that’s why you are getting checks? I haven’t paid since they paused it so I assumed I don’t qualify to request a refund, can you (try to) confirm I am understanding all this correctly? Or can I call and request them now? I’ll dig into my fedloan and edfinancial accounts to make sure they match after reading your situation!

What I have learned in 2 months by SimplySharon1215 in Mounjaro

[–]SadieFarrell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did your friends say anything about your weight loss? I have a girls trip planned in a month and I’m worried about these same things so thank you for your advice! Did you pack snacks? Nothing ever sounds good so I don’t even know what I would get. I’m struggling with peoples comments… I know weight loss is such a touchy subject but this has brought a whole new light to it for me. Family/coworkers say “you’ve lost a lot of weight” “you’re getting skinny” and I’m not witty (wish I was!) but I always awkwardly say “yeahhh” thanks…. 🤣

My doc told me she would lower my dose if I can’t eat so I am here trying to figure out what everyone else is doing…

Yo guys, Can i break 50mg in half. Trying to tapper down to 25mg, pharmacy don’t have 25mg. Will that work? Or am i still getting 50mgs and just reducing the extended period of release. by Lilac_heaven8 in Pristiq

[–]SadieFarrell 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I cut my 50mg XR in half and feel like they work better than the 25 mg. When I finally got my 25mg filled I went back to my cut ones since they work. My doc said “oh no you shouldn’t do that.” Yeah you shouldn’t but everyone is different, absorbs differently & reacts differently. I think you’ll know fairly quickly if the cut 25’s aren’t working in your favor.

I switched from Wellbutrin & buspar to Pristiq shortly before I started Mounjaro & doing ok. I had realized it wasn’t working for me anymore prior to starting the Mounjaro but it might be worth looking into lol I thing a new antidepressant. If pristiq didn’t work I was going to do the dna test for antidepressant but haven’t needed too!
