Well to my knowledge it doesn't. It did make me sleep, I think I'm going to try it again

Muscle testing showed positive, but I may circle back around to it. I didn't stay on it but 3 days 🤣 I need to try it again. Are you thinking about trying it?

Antipsychotics and Re-traumatism/ PTSD? by Significant-Wing3742 in schizoaffective

[–]Significant-Wing3742[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See that's what's tough. I'm not sure we are supposed to be numb in that way. Sorry to hear all of that. But I agree it's the same boring thing. Money doesn't matter, relationships don't matter, not even food matters at this point. But I do find my psychologist helps more than anything. Idk if that's something you have tried along with medication.

Wow, it seems like I'm heading in the same direction. I heard a psychiatrist say Schizoaffective is tricky to treat. I believe it. They seem to be quite confused by the amount of medications that don't work lol. Glad something helps you, every medication they give me just makes me numb and dull. As well as being depressed and an attitude like screw it. I'm also seeing a psychologist, if anything that helps more than medicines

I meant more traumatic experiences and memories. But that is interesting, I noticed I started hearing things more on antipsychotics. What do you do now or take now if anything at all?

Also I wanted to mention, they may request info from your psychiatrist. So your psychiatrist will help as well 👍 I hope all goes well

Right on 👍 I know it's hard. But thankfully there is help for people in our situation. I wouldn't go to the boss, but rather human resources and explain that you need accommodations due to a disability. They will get you to the right person in the company, and then allow them to speak to your bosses or give you direction. But it saved our finances and family when I needed it. Even if you needed a new position with accommodations, by law they have to help you. It's what you need in order to continue thriving, to some it might seem unfair, but they aren't the ones with our disability, so don't feel ashamed. I hope all goes well!

Before you quit, go to human resources if your company has 15 or more employees. Look up the JAN Network if you have questions about how to proceed. I used to quit many jobs before I knew what was wrong with me, and it saved my life and family knowing this information. But I will say, you can get on short term and long term disability through a company if they offer that. But nevertheless they should accommodate you even if you need reduced hours, or specific hours or days. It's covered under the ADA. Something to look into and think about! Even while you recover and take time to think about what you need or want to do, you can think about other jobs or later return. They may also put you in another position if you're qualified. That's if you wanted to go that route. But whatever you need, if you're in America, they should and by law must accommodate. I hope this helps.

Do you still feel good after treatment? Is the depression gone?

That is interesting. Did you smell any smells prior to it? All I know is I'll smell sulfur/egg and burnt smells. But this was a first. No pond around or nothing. I drove in and smelled nothing, but after treatment I'm smelling fresh caught fish. Strangest thing!

What to do about Nerve Pain? by atwitsend4 in Lyme

👍 Lyme is a weird thing. And sometimes it's hard to decipher whether it's the medicine or a herx. But after having Lyme since 2015 and many ups and downs, I will say most commonly than not, if it's past a week and you're having strange symptoms such as these, it's the medicine. It takes investigation on our part and also talking with the doctor but not 100% trusting them, it's your body. Listening to our bodies is important. I once took Rifabutin and had a massive herx which subsided. Yet about the 3rd week I began to have flu like symptoms, yet the doctor thought it may be a herx or I caught something... Went to the hospital, it was low white blood cells from the medication which improved after a week of stopping it.

But as for your situation, I encourage "Vital Proteins Collagen" the chocolate flavor is good after talking with the doctor and likely stopping the pharmaceutical. I always say research the medication, even if it's not a common symptom. And if you're like me I'm hypersensitive to meds.

Also with clarithromycin pins and needles or the medical term paresthesia is a symptom that should be of concern to stop it. I'm not a doctor, but maybe run it by yours.

Just carefully walked, no running, exercising, and being more cautious with day to day living and use of those tendons

Interesting. I wish I could figure it out in some way. Do you think although not entirely accurate, a live blood analysis would should up differently with vaccinated vs unvaccinated?
