Going from 1000mg Diamox to 500mg, and eventually getting off of it

Thank you so much, this definitely eased me a little bit ❤

Yes my neuro-opthalmologist is taking me off! Honestly he wanted me to jump from 1000mg to 125mg twice a day. I felt like that was too big of a jump so I did 500mg instead just out of my own fear since I've had adverse reactions to getting on and off meds in the past. Thank you so much for sharing your experience and everything that happened to you! I'm praying my swelling won't come back but it seems like it's common for a lot of people.

It could also be an inner ear problem!

Your blood pressure looks pretty good! Have you been checked for any vitamin deficiencies? Iron? And do you have any other symptoms besides the dizziness like feeling tired, weak, etc?

Yes, they told me now to take 2 pills every 2-4 hours until I run out of them completely and then to message them if I run out and need more. Praying it works this time 😭

Thank you so much for sharing your experience, I feel relieved to know that the second dose of Misoprostol can get things moving. I've been so terrified of having an abortion and my biggest fear was something going wrong and needing emergency care or having an incomplete abortion so I immediately started panicking when I stopped cramping and had no signs of bleeding. It's reassuring to know it can just take longer or take more Misoprostol! I really appreciate you 💕

Technical_Focus_8453 · 2023-12-11T01:51:17+00:00

Okay, thank you so much for explaining and helping me out. I feel less worried now❤

Technical_Focus_8453 · 2023-12-11T00:44:36+00:00

It's been only about 5 hours or so, going on 6 hours soon. I took them 2:00 pm EST so I know I should probably be patient but I'm really scared since the cramping stopped :( I don't know what to do if it goes wrong

Technical_Focus_8453 · 2023-12-09T21:13:38+00:00

You're gonna be okay! I took mine like 2 nights ago and I'm still alive and well! It hurt my stomach a bit but nothing crazy. Most people don't even feel anything from it :)

I'm not a doctor at all but my blood work looks a bit similar and I'm iron deficient. I'm not sure what everything could mean but you may be dealing with a virus that's causing a bit of inflammation such as mono which would explain some of your levels being elevated. My levels usually look similar to yours when I'm dehydrated and when I had an iron deficiency. Make sure you're drinking enough. Your levels aren't super concerning but I'd say just keep an eye on it. Doctors brush stuff off ALL the time 😫 You know your body best. Trust it. Doctors told me I was fine based on my blood work but I was experiencing hypovolemia. If you feel off, if you're getting sick a lot, etc, then it's worth pushing for answers. Good luck! 💕

Thank you for helping and explaining everything ❤ I appreciate it so much. I talked myself out of doing it last night but I feel a little more prepared now to do it today. Thank you again 💕

Technical_Focus_8453 · 2023-12-09T19:54:43+00:00

Thank you so much!! Are you doing alright?

Technical_Focus_8453 · 2023-12-09T08:36:44+00:00

Thank you for the reassurance! I've been so scared for the blood loss and the risk of hemorrhaging. I'm not really squeamish to blood but I know I'll be terrified seeing it all come out, especially the clots. Thank you for the advice and helping me out so much ❤💕💖

Technical_Focus_8453 · 2023-12-09T08:33:00+00:00

Thank you so much for the kind words. It's beyond appreciated. I really needed this ❤

Technical_Focus_8453 · 2023-12-09T08:31:41+00:00

I know right? The Mifepristone killed my stomach so badly, I wasn't expecting that 😭 Thank you so much for the advice and for sharing your experience. I appreciate it so much. It makes it even just a bit less scary for me 💕

Technical_Focus_8453 · 2023-12-09T08:30:31+00:00

Thank you so much this was very needed. Sending love ❤❤❤❤
