BG,

Thank you for your suggestions. I did see my doctor
he did test for a thyroid problem, the test came back
negative. I find this to be both good and bad because
I would have liked to have found a definite answer.

I have chosen to stop taking Celexa for the time
being to see if I notice any change.

Thanks again!!
