Did you find TMS to help with anxiety? I did 3 weeks of treatment and felt amazing. About a week after I was done I stopped taking my lexapro. And anxiety hasn't been good since. It was been 3 weeks since the last TMS treatment and two weeks off the lexapro.
My search of the web reveals some people saying it helped for anxiety, but as far as I know the FDA only talks about it for depression. I also read somewhere that they have experimented with applying TMS to the other side of your head for anxiety.
So I guess the questions I am left with are: would more TMS help me with anxiety too? Did I not do enough TMS to start with?
I see TMS pdoc in 1.5 weeks for follow up. I'm also seeing a pdoc for a 2nd opinion in 2 weeks and then my own pdoc in 3 weeks! I want to do my homework so I can make informed decisions.
Thanks for the reply!
