Guest guest Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 Dear Dorothy, You said: I am taking effexor 75mg 3x a day, resperidol 3mg, transxene 7.5 mg, trazodone100 mg, 1 each at bed time. I am not taking any supplements. I have diabetes. I take metiform 500mg 2x a day, glucitrol , and actos 1x a day.>> ** {sigh} I wish I'd stop seeing lists like this. I'm sorry that doctors are so irresponsible that they've loaded you up on drugs like this. I'm sure when you reduced before you made reductions larger than 10%, right? What I'd like to do is get you fortified with some nutrients and then begin to reduce the Effexor and Trazadone. Which of these drugs, if any, have you been on longest? I am so sorry that you have been subjected to such horrible treatemnt masquerading as therapeutic treatment. What was the original reason you were put on a drug? What was it? How did you respond to it? Take care, Dorothy. I'll talk to you soon. Regards, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 Hello all! My name is . I was recently diagnosed w/ fibromyalgia (actually have thought I've had it since I was 18 years old...am now 30). It's really tough dealing w/ this. I am a nurse by trade and it makes my everyday life and job hard to do. The other part is having others say this is a " made up disease " . Really makes me mad! They have no idea what I'm dealing with. I hate taking meds and am dealing w/ the symptoms on my own. Am really looking forward to talking w/ others who have this disease and see what has helped ya'll. Looking forward to meeting you. HUGS!
