Started Prozac (fluoxetine) five years ago for pain and I am trying to work out whether what I am feeling now is tolerance or something else.
Having a single page of history makes the appointment half as bad, because they can read faster than I can talk.
The dose has stayed the same for five years and the effect has not, which is the whole puzzle.
The rebound is worse than the original problem for about a fortnight and then it eases.
The sexual side effects persist for some people and the leaflets are coy about the rates.
Genuinely open to being told my reasoning is wrong here.
Ask for the longer appointment slot. Ten minutes is not enough for a complex history and pretending otherwise wastes both your time.
Same here.
Five years in on fluoxetine and it lines up.
Is it normal to feel worse before better? Nobody told me that.
Print the page.
My pharmacist has become my actual doctor and I am at peace with it.
