Hi there, I thought I would shoot this question out to see if anyone has any insights or thoughts about my medications. I have OCD, panic attacks, and GAD, and over the past year, quite a few things have been patched together to treat it. I take the following
Prozac 10 MGs
Klonopin .5 MGs once a day
NAC (supplement) 600 MG twice a day
Neurontin 100 MGs twice a day
Topamax 15 MGs twice a dayHere is my problem... something in my combo is agitating me to the point that I have anxiety and restlessness. Sometimes I am having panic attacks as well. The two things I suspect are
1) The neurontin, topamax, and NAC are somehow not playing well with each other.
OR
2) stress has crept up on me and my SSRI needs to be boostedI recently switched PDOCs and am concerned that I made a mistake doing this. My other pdoc was a clinical researcher, this new one is more of an HMO doc with quite the caseload. We talked about things today, and she would like me to move forward with upping my prozac. I am happy to do this, but am concerned that I am not addressing a potential issue of having a med combo that disagrees with me, when perhaps just stopping or stepping down a bit from one of the meds would help.
Does anyone have any insights or information that they would care to share? Please no med horror stories though, that is a bit of an anxiety trigger for me.
Thanks
