I'm taking:
10mg zyprexa
4x8mg perphenazine
200mg bupropion sr (wellbutrin sr)
150mg sertraline (zoloft)I'm sleeping all the time. My blood sugars are high some times, has not been in a while but today for some reason it was. Some times I sleep 8 hours some times I sleep like today, from 12am till 7pm. Usualy its about 10-12 hours. I'm gaining weight again.
My doctor is not taking my current insurance, which I will have till september, when I go on medicare, which my doctors all take. So I'm afraid to go in to see my Pdoc till september, because I will have to pay $100 a visit. And if I go in with this problem I'm sure she will have me coming in every few weeks or so which I don't want to pay $100 each.
My solution to this problem is take more wellbutrin sr, 300mg like I was taking before. But the doctor is probably thinking something else. My other thought is to take less perphenazine and go off it. But now that my blood sugar is higher and I'm eating more I'm thinking to take less of the zyprexa, maybe 5mg. Realy what I would like is a license to play around with my meds with out the doctor, till I find some thing that works. But you know how doctors are they like to be in the loop.
So what should I do. I've realy got to atleast sleep less and would like the perphenazine to work in place of zyprexa but don't think that will happen, because of all my other failed attemps to get off the zyprexa. Currently I'm not working and this is the time to play with meds.
