John still expensive to hold a toothbrush? Have prices gone up this much? Or do they do something special. So Gadchik and you are just on klonopin no? John how did you get off the ad's? Phillipa

P, Ive gotten myself into a "situation". I took 12.5mg zoloft for neck pain/shoulder tension for 2 months. It worked, pain completely gone. I havent yet checked out my neck with a dr. Now, when Ive tried to decrease the zoloft, I have withdrawal, feel sick, weak, dizzy.

Neckpain is gone. Now going through withdrawal? You did this once in the past. How long does it last? Phillipa

My neck pain/shoulder tension only disappears if I stay on the zoloft, once I try to taper, it always comes back. Im going to the dr in spring. Ive been trying to get in to a female dr I really trust, but she is not accepting new pts til spring. I just got health ins as of Jan 1st. I saw this particular dr at a clinic she was subbing in when I was in my crazy time, and I liked her.I will ask about this zoloft thing and how it is making my neck pain go away.And I suppose I need an mri or xrays. A pharmacist told me that the zoloft can help with this type of pain. I havent gained weight, so I may stay on it. My brain feels good too!

he-he :)
i tore out the old stainless steel 1958 rotating toothbrush holders. they were a mess.
i had a great tile guy make the pink and brown tile look better than new. really.
yeah, a bit pricey, but i think/hope they will last. and! i think they will look great with the tile.
was taking remeron. had no problems coming off. nothing like some of the other meds. ouch.
meds; 2mg of klonopin and holding. decided to start 5mg of prozac. i am super med sensitive. hold for a few weeks and then go to 10. then? still use remeron (low dose) sometimes for sleep.
i need to give something a try. i am in a holding pattern and not getting any better really.

John ever take Prozac before? I have a full bottle of l0mg in tablet now. Never tried them. So what are you feeling from it? I know that time long ago it was I had so much energy the first day. But didn't need an ad at the time. I do wonder what life would be like now if had done what the doc said. Phillipa

I wonder, sometimes, Phillipa, why you get prescribed psych meds that you don't take and don't feel you need. What are your symptoms? What are you trying to treat?

Way back when was getting meds different ones anxiety just anxiety. Now I kind of self medicate with the ones prescribed. Got one for loss of taste and smell? That would be the greatest gift of all. Last time given a different med was about 8 years ago. Now just tweek doses. Phillipa
