GRRRR...have to keep my mouth shut!

[Guest guest]

I am so distraught. A woman I know professionally told me that she is so

thrilled with the new medicine her doc put her on. She knows my stance on

pharmaceuticals, but told me this anyway. I have to walk a very tight line and

keep personal, personal and work, work. I asked (because I am a glutton for

punishment, I guess) what meds she was taking. She said that she went to the doc

for stress. He told her she was on the verge of a nervous breakdown and to take

" fluoxetine " to help her relax. Thinking of me, she asked " Is this one of those

antidepressants? " He said no. She got a severe headache the next day. Side

effect? No. Separate issue. Fiorinal (sp?). She had also complained (pre-Prozac)

of insomnia so he added Restoril. I do not know what to do...I cannot just blast

away about her quack, pharma, meds, etc. But I cannot remain silent.

Thoughts?
